I'm 29 and born and raised in California.

I've gone through quite a few relationships! Some were great and some were down right terrible!

I really enjoy trying to help people get through relationship woes. Sometimes they can be life consuming and everyone can use a little help from time-to-time.

Love among the ruins

Q.   I hope it's all right if I write. I'm not your traditional client. I'm 62, and I recently bumped (quite accidentally) into my very first real love, a girl for whom I gladly would have died, in 1966. The Vietnam war separated us. She then married ...

I have no idea what's going on in her head..need advice!

Q.   Last month my ex called to say that we were over and she needed a break from us, we'd been going out for 2 1/2 years,we'd been arguing a lot over the last few months,and I guess she'd just had enough. taking a step back from us has made me see some ...

A.   14 March 2010: I agree that I think she still likes you; however, it sounds like the way your relationship was before will only go back to the way it was before. If you were depressed in the relationship before and now you're happy, not depressed, and not ... (read in full...)

A.   14 March 2010: Nah, don't think you're pregnant. Sounds like you're probably just having an irregular period. Even if you always have a normal one, you can be irregular every so often. I was always normal until about 23 and I completely skipped a period and ... (read in full...)

What does this look mean?

A.   13 March 2010: It depends...was his head slightly tilted to the left? If it was to the left then that means definitely interested. If it was to the right, definitely no. However, if there was no tilt and he blinked twice, then it's a maybe.... (read in full...)

My cousin touches me! Help!

Q.   Ok, my older cousin used to touch me all the time. I was 10 years old and he was 13. I didn't know what masterbating was and why he did it, but he used to be my best friend when i was 10. So we used to sit together in the same chair because it was a ...

A.   13 March 2010: Yes, it is very wrong. Even if he wasn't your cousin and some boy, it's very inappropriate for him to be touching you in such a way. You definitely need to tell your parents what he does. They will not be mad at you, they'll want to protect you.... (read in full...)

My girlfriends periods only last two days! Is there something wrong?

Q.   My girlfriend and I were talking recently and she told me that her periods only last 2 days and are always light. Does this mean she is less fertile or could have problems conceiving? She is 32. I have never heard of girls having such short, ligh...

A.   13 March 2010: Some women do. Especially if they're on birth control, that can happen. Certain birth control pills can make periods only last that long, or if she has a IUD her periods can be that way. OR, she could be one of those lucky ladies that just ... (read in full...)

Why am I jealous of this negative attention, my best friend gets from the guys??

Q.   One of my best friends is really short and pretty. I view myself as just an average (but my friends are helping me get over my self-esteem issues). She has mostly guy friends and that makes me sort of jealous because they're also always with her. ...

A.   13 March 2010: Oh gosh, boys at that age say stupid things like that. You definitely don't want boys saying that they want to rape your dead body! That's disgusting, that's called necrophelia and that was Jeffrey Dahmer! Gross! You just happen to know wha... (read in full...)

How can I show her that things have changed and that it will work?

Q.   I need some advice! I met a girl about 3.5 years ago. We moved very fast but loved each other very much, about 9 months into our relationship she became pregnant. Our relationship was good but we became to fight more and more. We became distant ...

A.   12 March 2010: I really think you need to tell her what you told us. Let her know that you have changed and if she would give you the opportunity to show her, you could then prove it to her. I mean, it kind of sucks you quit your job and dropped some classes to ... (read in full...)

Q.   I'm 19 years old and so is he, I've known this boy for almost 2 years, he lived in my halls of residence in my first year at uni, we never really got close but were aquaintances, but I always fancied him a little bit. A few nights ago I was out with ...

A.   12 March 2010: It depends, the only way to know would be if we were able to read his mind. He may think you were cool and enjoyed making out with you, but he's just not interested in anything more. I agree to give it another week and just assume he's a lost ... (read in full...)

I exercise and do sports constantly but can't seem to lose weight!

Q.   Hi, Aunties! I'm in a great relationship with one of the best guys in the world. I'm beyond lucky to have him, and I love him very much. At only 16, I know that I'm going to be told I know nothing of love... And that's probably true, but I'm very...

A.   11 March 2010: If your boyfriend tells you that he thinks you're beautiful; he means it. He wouldn't be with you if he thought otherwise! However, what you eat is the biggest key to weight loss, more so than exercise. Many people can work themselves to death... (read in full...)

Do you have to take birth control at the same time everyday for it to work?

Q.   If you been on Birth control pills and you never skip a day but take it sometime on different times of the days. Does it still works? ...

A.   11 March 2010: For it to be as effective as it is, yes. However, as much of a good girl as I have tried to be about taking it, there have been time where I skipped around on the time (I still took it everyday) and didn't wind up pregnant. Could have been luck or ... (read in full...)

Is it selfish for me to want him in my life?

A.   10 March 2010: Well you'll get over it. I know that's not what you want to hear, but a month isn't nearly long enough to get over a 5-year relationship. There are things that you're going to miss about him and especially when you're feeling blue it's easy to ... (read in full...)

Q.   My boyfriend has told me that he doesn't want a girlfriend who wants to go clubbing and drink. We have been together for 2 years, we met at a club and for the first 6 months always went clubbing together and we went to every music festival ...

A.   10 March 2010: I think if you got out clubbing REGULARLY like every week or even a few times a month, I think that would make any partner feel uncomfortable. Clubbing is typically where single people go to mingle and yes, sometimes you'll find couples that go ... (read in full...)

A.   7 March 2010: You two are so young, so it's only reasonable to have a lot of "what if's." Honestly, you two will end up breaking up and what you fear will happen, on the other hand, you two could be the exception and end up being together. What you also need to ... (read in full...)

A.   6 March 2010: What I've noticed with my best friend who is a preschool teacher is to act like it's the end of the world when they do something wrong and it usually works. So if she calls you a bitch again, you or someone else basically has to embarrass her, ... (read in full...)

A.   4 March 2010: If you're an adult then yes, you do have a say in it. And if they do this then this is fraud. This is only some "benefit" for them and it's terrible. Credit means so many things, and it can ruin things for you in the future. It takes 8-10 years ... (read in full...)

A.   2 March 2010: Obviously the only thing that's important to you is the sex. You don't seem to care too much that you're with a person that most people wouldn't want to be near (a cheater and liar) but you don't want to leave her because you think she's good in ... (read in full...)

A.   1 March 2010: Besides working on himself, you also need to work on yourself. Yes, it was wrong for him to hit you, but you also have no right to hit him. I'm sure you probably aren't usually an "abusive" person, but if he's been abused in the past then he'll ... (read in full...)

A.   1 March 2010: If your boyfriend is a jerk enough to get it from someone else because they're okay with not using condoms, then you really don't need someone like him in the first place. I think you're probably just worrying too much and he'll be a baby about it ... (read in full...)

A.   24 February 2010: I agree, you need to give some more info. If you just called and you're relying on caller ID to let her know you called, then she'll just assume it's not that important if you didn't leave a message. So either she is busy, she's playing hard-to-... (read in full...)

A.   24 February 2010: Well her past is her past, and usually I don't agree w/ someone being upset over these types of things, but I would probably feel the same way if I found out that I had a boyfriend that had slept with 3 of my friends. Really, all of the info about ... (read in full...)

Should I take Him Back One Last Time?

Q.   My ex-boyfriend and I dated for about a full year, on-and-off. Our breakups were always stupid, sometimes because of rumours/misunderstandings, and once because he lied to me about himself. Afterwards, though, he explained it was only because he ...

A.   24 February 2010: Here's your problem, you want him to change. He is who he is and sure, not everyone is perfect, but if he's not the right person for you then he just isn't. I know what it's like to think that a guy is great in many ways and has tried to make an ... (read in full...)

A.   7 February 2010: If you have an implant, usually you'll get lighter to no period at all. Maybe your body isn't reacting very well to it either, afterall, what the hormones do is trick your body into thinking it's pregnant that way you won't ovulate, so some ... (read in full...)
