Why would a man be so stingy?

Q.   I (25/F) and Art (30/M)recently broke up from a 1 year relationship. The problem: he barely paid for our dates, even after I told him it bothered me. He wants to get back together, but I'm unsure. Art is a smart, sensual, and charismatic man....

A.   10 January 2015: It's right there in everything you said. He is trying to spend wisely. From what you said he doesn't seem someone who wouldn't pay if he could. You say that used to pay for his gfs when he had the money. And honestly, there's nothing wrong in... (read in full...)

I really like him but he never went to university.

Q.   I really like this guy I've been chatting with. He's caring, kind and hardworking but, I just found out that he didn't go to university. I know this shouldn't matter, but I cant seem to get over the prejudice that because he didn't get a higher ...

A.   8 January 2015: Ask yourself if it's more important to you- how you are treated or how educated your guy is. While education is very important, it doesn't necessarily make a person a better human. Owing to your background i really understand how you must fee... (read in full...)

It seems that everything I do is pointless

Q.   I am not okay with myself. I've been told to be positive and that the situation I am in is not the end of the world by many people but it doesn't help. My Mother and family tear me down at every chance about how much of a failure I am and ask how am ...

A.   8 January 2015: I know it's difficult. Truth is no matter how many people are going through a similar or worse situation, it's hardly ever a consolation. First of all, stop judging yourself by people's expectations. The only failure is if you give up. How abou... (read in full...)

I'm thinking of cutting ties with my father -- am I being unreasonable?

Q.   Im thinking of cutting contact with my dad as i dont want him in my life any more but would like some advice on whether i am overreacting before i go ahead with it. Im sorry this is so long. To cut an extremely long story short my parents divorced...

A.   8 January 2015: I don't think you are overreacting, no. You seemed to have made efforts from your end. Maybe it's time to move on. You aren't being unfair to the child either. A child deserves love and affection, not ignorance. No matter what the relationship... (read in full...)

A.   8 January 2015: It's not wrong if you want it as well. But i must say, just because you get attached doesn't mean he is going to. You have to decide for yourself if you can deal with it if and when it comes to an end. If you don't think you can cope with a heartb... (read in full...)

Q.   I have a problem that is probably in my head. A couple months ago I met a girl I never gave any thought until two months ago when I realized she had a crush on me. I gave her my number and she was texting me all the time and she seemed like she was ...

A.   6 January 2015: These things just happen. I know its not the best to hear, but its absolutely normal now-a-days for relationships to not work out for too long. Self doubt can only add to all the troubles. I don't really know how your relationships ha... (read in full...)

A.   5 January 2015: I agree with Uncle PJ. Don't do anything you don't want to do. It takes time for some women to actually feel comfortable about these things. Even i took my own time to do so. But if you want to feel that pleasure for yourself, try noticing you... (read in full...)
