Would I be living in a sexless marriage if I was to marry this girl?

A.   28 July 2010: I don't think there is any more you can do - you are throwing good time after bad. She just doesn't seem to be physically attracted to you and whatever else the relationship might bring that's a deal-breaker. Better luck with the next gf. ... (read in full...)

A.   26 July 2010: Well to be honest it sounds to me like he could be a closet straight boy. Or he could be totally conflicted about being gay ( if he is, in fact, gay). Your best bet i would say is to stop trying to initiate physical touching / hugs / whatever ... (read in full...)

All I want is to meet somebody! Will I be alone forever?

Q.   I'm 30 years old and a single father. I've been single for four years now. I'm not good looking - some might say I'm ugly and although I'm not fat I don't have a great body. My ex cheated on me then walked out on me and my kids for another man. ...

A.   26 July 2010: You totally lack confidence. One simple thing that it is within your power to do is to work on your body. Map out a one year program to become really buff. The ladies love a tight ass so work on getting your pants size down to 30" or 32" wais... (read in full...)
