I'm falling for my boyfriends father!

Q.   I'm 15 years old about to be 16 and I used to date this boy that is now 19. We broke up because he wasn't in a stable environment at the moment. We still remain extremely good friends, though. We talk almost everyday. Now, I don't know what has ...

A.   14 April 2013: An explanation as to why you are feeling this way? Well he is like your boyfriend who you were attracted to and had feelings for yet he is more mature and experienced. Perfectly natural to feel this way. I could suggest you have father issues, but ... (read in full...)

Should I give him a love letter on graduation day?

Q.   I have been in love with this guy for over a year now. He knows about my feelings for him. We talked about it and he said he wasn't sure about how he feels and that he didn't want to get into a relationship that he wasn't sure he could fight for. ...

A.   14 April 2013: Personally I wouldn't give him the letter. If you want to tell him how you feel you should do it in person and be prepared for rejection. Boys come and go and you will meet the right one soon enough.... (read in full...)

Should I contact him after 1st date?

Q.   One of my clients (I'm a cosmetologist) set me up with her boyfriends friend. He never really texted me a lot but when he did he seemed nice. She informed me that he's really shy so I figured that's why he doesn't text a lot. He asked me out to ...

A.   14 April 2013: Just text him!!!... (read in full...)

Anyone with experience in watersports?

Q.   So, recently my boyfriend told me that it would be a major turn on if I peed on him during sex. He also suggested peeing inside me during sex. It doesn't gross me out or anything...I guess I just want to know if anyone had any experience with this. ...

A.   14 April 2013: Yeah this def comes from watching porn. My ex was very into it, did nothing for me obviously, but men want a porn star sometimes. I'd recommend not telling your friends about this one as its more a specialist taste thing! If you are happy to plea... (read in full...)

How does my friend interpret my smiley use?

Q.   Hello. I have a good online contact that I generally interact with, every day. My inquiry is very important to get insight on. When I talk with my friend, I put the :) smiley for anything I answer. One time, he asked me to read some old li...

A.   14 April 2013: What makes you ask? I'd assume smiley face means you are definitely friends, an xx suggests more than friends. If you do it all the time this would be a bit repetitive so he probably doesn't even notice it anymore!... (read in full...)

I followed my girlfriend and found out she was visiting her ex in prison. She was very upset that I followed her and found out. Now what?

Q.   I've been with my girlfriend for over seven months now. We met over a dating site, but an amusing turn found that we shared a large group of mutual friends that lived near each of us. Everything had been going smoothly until sometime in the middle ...

A.   14 April 2013: You seem to be a rescuer. You can't 'save' her from this and if you do then when she is sorted she is likely to leave you. I'm not saying you should leave her just don't try and rescue her, it's unhealthy.... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2013: So from what you have said, she is with you but possibly if he wasn't in prison she would be with him. Your second best, which is ok but it's not great. You want to make sure she is safe?! In what way is she not safe. If he is in prison for anot... (read in full...)

Orgasm question

Q.   Do you think there is such a thing as an orgasm that *requires* BOTH gspot and clitoris stimulation?? I ask because I've heard of females having either a clitoris orgasm or a vaginal orgasm. I've tried having just a vaginal orgasm or just a...

A.   13 April 2013: I find I only orgasm through a specific way and I think that's just because that's the way my body and mind is used to being stimulated. It would be great if there was a lot more variety but just be happy you orgasm at all! ... (read in full...)

Is she telling me the truth? Or is she withholding some details? Having trouble trusting if her version is true.

Q.   We were both 16 when we met. When I first noticed her, I NEVER thought she would smoke or drink. To my surprise, she told me she started smoking at the age of 12 (social smoker) and went to club and pub at the age of 15. That happened before ...

A.   13 April 2013: Why do you care? This is none of your business and come across as obsessive and controlling behaviour. She is your girlfriend not your possession. Even if she had sex with 10 men before you, you still have no right to judge. Give the poor girl a ... (read in full...)

A.   13 April 2013: I don't think you need to stop them fancying you, as that is impossible in young men! Just learn how to handle their advances. You can make a joke about things and have a laugh but always be clear and straight to the point - it's never going to ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hey guys, so my gf of a month has just passed her driving test and now she's seems very off with me. I mean we can spend the day together and not have a real kiss at all, we have gone all the way so it's just really weird. She tries to get rid of me ...

A.   13 April 2013: If she is losing interest then there isn't much you can do. You can't force someone to like you. I'm sure you want to be with someone who likes you as much as you like them. And at your age there are plenty more fish in the sea!... (read in full...)

A.   11 April 2013: you need to spend time with him outside of university. He isn't going to make a move in this environment. Sounds like he is showing signs of liking you, but I haven't seen you two together. You might have to make the first move, risky but depends ... (read in full...)

A.   11 April 2013: With your boyfriend - it sounds like you don't see each other often enough to bond physically with each other. You need to spend more time getting to know each others bodies. On your own - take your time, relax. women are more complex than men... (read in full...)

A.   11 April 2013: if it hurt his ego surely he would have done something about it. Rather than telling him how much his hair turns you off why not tell him how turned on you will be by his smooth skin. If you make it sound sexy enough i'm sure he'll be grooming... (read in full...)

Q.   Well my girlfriend had said that she had almost had sex with someone I know before we were dating but the way she had told the story made me feel as though she was lying she said she was a virgin (as was I) when we first had sex but she didn't reac...

A.   11 April 2013: there is no way of telling if she is a virgin or not other than by asking her. You can't tell by her behaviour or physically. If you respect her then you would trust her and not accuse her of lying for no reason. If you can't respect her then don't ... (read in full...)

A.   11 April 2013: masturbating is perfectly natural and at your age I would expect you to be doing it a lot. The issue is your association between your sexual assault and masturbation. I think this is something that could be worked through in counselling if you have ... (read in full...)

Q.   I am 58 and my wife is 49 and wehave been happily together for 18 years and although the marriage has become a bit mundane I feel there is no excuse for her behaviour. She had been very protective of her phone of late causing me to become very ...

A.   11 April 2013: If you were pretty much leading separate lives can you blame her for wanting space from the relationship. What was stopping you from re-invigorating the marriage before she cheated? While men's sex drive drops as they get older women still need love ... (read in full...)

I don't want kids and I'm concerned I'll end up alone

Q.   Feel like I am going to be permanently single. Been single 5 years. I don't want kids, so my dating pool is much smaller and even on online dating sites there are so few women who don't want or don't already have kids. Have lots of friends but i...

A.   1 April 2013: I agree with the other poster - date someone with older kids. It's unlikely they will want more and you won't have little kids running round the house. Most women (most adults) want kids at some point, it's just part of human nature to want to ... (read in full...)
