Dad won't even meet my boyfriend, because of his religion!

Q.   I have been going out with my boyfriend for over 5 months now and I really love him, but my dad doesn't like him and won't meet him because of his religion. What should I do?...

A.   18 June 2005: Just how serious are you about this relationship? If your father objects to the " boy" because of his religion, I suspect you have been taught in your family that you owe your family to a duty to date and marry only within your own religion. If you ... (read in full...)

A.   18 June 2005:  myparents argued about the little things all their lives, and never addressed the bigger issues that they couldn't talk about. They drove us kids crazy! Don't marry until you have this matter dealt with by seeking professional counseling. Stop this ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have a slight kinda issue. I am a virgin and will be getting married and losing my virginity to a girl who's not a virgin. I feel like it'll be awkward for me a lot more than for her. She hasn't had sex in years now, but I still feel I'll be ...

A.   18 June 2005: Sit down with your fiance and have a long talk about sex. You are afraid of what you don't know. The rules have to be that you will answer every question she asks truthfully, as will she of your questions, and that no question is inappropriate. Then ... (read in full...)

A.   18 June 2005: I suspect he is worried about getting you pregnant. That is the most common reason for performance anxiety. Use birth control, such as spermacital foam, and a diaphragm, and have him wear a condom. Put it on for him, Your manual stimulation of his ... (read in full...)

A.   17 June 2005: It is up to you. If your personal ethics tell you not to cheat on your husband, then don't. If you can look at yourself in the mirror and accept the truth that you cheated on your husband, then go ahead. But keep your mouth shut about it to ... (read in full...)

A.   17 June 2005: OH, please ! You cannot change unless you do a large share of growing up, and probably get professional help, too. Do it. That is probably the only thing that might change her mind and give you another chance. Sit down and write out what you argue ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi, I really like this guy. He is a few years older than me I don't know exactly how many. I have liked him for some time. My mother does not like me to get involved with him because he has just come out of jail for fighting, but I reassured her ...

A.   17 June 2005: Girl: You have no business dating older men at 15 years of age. You are jail bait, in most jurisdictions. If he was in prison, he was at least 17 and is probably older. Stay away from him. If he went to prison for assault, it is because he has ... (read in full...)
