Not so much a question I suppose - more of a cry from the heart - even doing the right thing can hurt like hell.

Q.   Does knowing the answer help the heartache? In short, I'm married, she's married, both have kids and work together. Recently we told each other how we felt - head over heels in love - and have been meeting after work or at lunchtime - purely to talk ...

A.   3 November 2007: an update. I've left my wife and you know what? It's the best decision I've ever made. I realise now that the other woman was not the issue as we still will never be together- that was very much a distraction from the issues in my marriage which was ... (read in full...)

My hubbie is controlling, we have a 4 yr old daughter, if I leave it will be all my fault , or so he says, help me!

Q.   I have been married for 7 years now and I must say my life with him has been a roller coaster. I have never really felt "in Love" with him.(this I think was because of my age when we got together and the fact that I was very insecure) Sex is awful...

A.   3 November 2007: I'd just want to say that I've just left my wife for similar reasons. For me, no matter what a so called 'good wife' she wanted to be, somehow, something was missing. Since I've left, I know It's been the right thing to do and, despite the hurt, and ... (read in full...)

I cheated with his brother, how can we sort this one out.

A.   3 November 2007: In short, I'm afraid It's unlikely you can sort it out. Messing with family is never a good idea- having a brother I know I couldn't go with someone he's been with- I reckon your b/f feels the same. I suggest, and I know it will prob hurt, you move ... (read in full...)

A.   3 November 2007: ok I know that this may sound harsh but it sounds very much like this guy is using you I'm afraid despite what he's saying. It's gonna hurt but in my opinion You've gotta move on - especially given that he's been violent. No relationship is worth ... (read in full...)

We split 10 weeks ago now and we managed to stay friends but suddenly she has backed off. Why would she be avoiding me now?

Q.   My ex broke up with me about 10.5 weeks ago now. I've been going out on dates, getting attention from other chicks, and feeling better as of late. It's been 3 weeks since I last talked to her, which is the longest stretch since we've met. I dec...

A.   1 September 2007: My ex kept contacting me after we broke up. she wanted to be friends, I wanted to get back with her. I could only move on properly by completely cutting off contact. Maybe that's how she feels? ... (read in full...)

A.   1 September 2007: It took me until age 21! No, it's not harder, what is difficult is knowing that your friends are doing it and you're not. It will happen some day- and it's worth waiting for if it's someone you REALLY care for. ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi, I've been dating my boyfriend for 5 years now and I love him to death but the initial butterflies are gone and it's deeper, he's more like a family member. His friend and I became really good friends over the past 5 years too and I can't figure ...

A.   30 August 2007: I feel compelled to answer this as a bloke due to the previous answers! Yeah it's tempting to have just the physical with an ex - problem is that one of you will probably want or need more. Best not go there dude- It'll probably end in tears - maybe ... (read in full...)

A.   30 August 2007: I reckon it's down to your partner to deal with his kids. In my opinion, the age gap doesn't matter. Then again I can see why his kids have concerns. really do think it's not down to you tho' - you can't help who you fall for! If you mean a lot to ... (read in full...)

Q.   What to do? Should I ask him to leave? We've been married for nearly twenty years and have two doting children. But you can bet that almost every holiday we have ends up in frustration and near separation, because of his prolonged eye-contact with a ...

A.   30 August 2007: As a bloke, first off, I can't honestly condone his behaviour as it's something I'd never do- especially when I'm with my wife! I can understand how it can hurt but sometimes lust is just that with guys and it doesn't translate to love. Sounds ... (read in full...)

A.   22 August 2007: If you're a couple, you should only be doing things you both wanna do. If you keep asking her to do something she doesn't want to, you risk her putting up barriers and not wanting to have sex. Worse, you'll make her feel inadequate. yeah, anal can ... (read in full...)
