*erinity's profile:

I am a 32 year old female and I live in Virginia. I grew up as a military brat and I was in the Navy for 3 years, so I never really grew up in one particular area. I am open, honest and quite versitile because of my background. I have been through MANY different situations, both good and bad. I never really had anyone to talk to or to give me advice through all of the situations I've been through. So I've had to learn a lot on my own and I've learned a lot. I enjoy offering advise based on things I've learned along the way and particularly situations that I can relate to. I'm a people pleaser so I love helping people in any way that I'm able to. I especially enjoy helping teens because I know that if I had someone to explain things to me and offer me advise when I was a teen then I would have made it though a lot of situations without enduring as much pain and sorrow as I did. But they made me strong and I don't regret that part of it. If I can save one life, then I've done well. If I can help save more, then I can rest in peace when it's my time to go. God bless everyone!

Is it wrong to occasionally use porn?

Q.   I met my wife 10 years and married for 2. I love deeply and think she is one of the most attractive women that I have ever seen. Occasionally I watch porn.By occasionally I mean I may not watch it for a few months then I may watch it say 3 or 4 tim...

A.   11 December 2007: O.K. here it goes. It's not bad to watch porn as long as your wife doesn't mind. Doing it behind her back is what is unacceptable. Hiding something from your spouse is bad enough, but being caught is even worse. Once the trust factor is broken, ... (read in full...)

Why do I think no-one is good enough?

Q.   Recently i've been through a break-up. And everytime i meet a new guy i compare him to my ex. So i dont know the good guys from the bad. Why is this happening? Why can i just get over my ex? And when i compare any guy to him, i think none of them ...

A.   11 December 2007: That's actually quite natural and more common than you can imagine. The only thing that really helps in this situation is time. If your break is recent then give yourself time to get over him, there is no need to run out and find somebody new ... (read in full...)

Is this the way most women act?

Q.   Hi , i've been with my girlfriend for 8 and a half months now, and i really love her, i really do. She says she loves me but its hard to truly believe that because of the way she acts towards me, and she has gone on a break twice because she's said ...

A.   10 December 2007: That's the way most GIRLS act when they are confused about their feelings. So, in a sense she's at least being honest with you when she says she's confused about her feelings toward you. You guys are still young and love is new for you right now. ... (read in full...)

A.   10 December 2007: Sorry dear, but I think the answer is pretty obvious, and not because he's not calling you back, but because of the fact that you have children and he has already been verbally abusive to you. Look, you may love him now, but it's only going to get ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hey i was wondering if anyone has any tips for getting whiter teeth ? thanks x...

A.   10 December 2007: I would say, start at the dentist. They can clean your teeth and get them whiter and you can maintain white teeth by brusing twice a day and occasionally using the whitining strips. If you smoke or drink coffee/soda I would clean them more often.... (read in full...)

Q.   hi there can someone give me some advice please? I am on a relationship with a younger man and my problem is that he is constantly telling me that he would have sex with this or that woman. I make excuses for him telling myself that this...

A.   10 December 2007: I would tell him that it's disrespecrful and degrading to you and you would appreciate it if he would stop. If he does it again after you ask him politely to stop, then I would cut him off from all sexual activities and I would tell him that when he ... (read in full...)

My wife's past hurts me deeply

Q.   I met my current wife of 2 yrs when we were just barely old enough to get a drivers license. I was into her right away. In fact she was the first girl I had ever asked on a date. I was 16 and she was 15 (and a few months shy of 16). She shot me down ...

A.   5 December 2007: You're so cute. However, the past is the past, you may not have known everything about her past before you got married but it was quite obvious that she was no angel and she had many relations prior to you, and that you did know. I think it's so ... (read in full...)

A.   31 October 2007: Wow! From a womans prospective, I don't get it either. Does she ever do "little things" for you? I commend your efforts for as much as you do for her and I'm sorry that she doesn't appreciate it more. Seeing as you are already doing things to ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have been living with my girlfriend for 6 years the last few of which have been fairly miserable. I haven't felt able to be myself around her anymore and she doesn't bring out the best in me. But despite that I feel her loyalty, depth of feelings ...

A.   26 October 2007: I think blue angel nailed it on the head, the grass isn't always greener on the other side. It's easier for someone new to make you feel alive and all tingly inside again, because it's new. I'm sure you had the same feelings when you fell in love ... (read in full...)

A.   20 October 2007: Well, I think it's very noble of you to dedicate yourself to taking care of her. She obviously needs you very much if she doesn't have any family. I can completely understand your feelings of lonliness at the same time. Can't you have people over ... (read in full...)

A.   17 October 2007: Boy oh boy can I relate to this one. Your story sounds almost identical to mine. When me and my husband met I was 24 and he was 22. We used to both drink and party a bit so I didn't see the signs of his alcoholism. Once I got pregnant naturally, ... (read in full...)

A.   14 October 2007: Sweethart, you're very young. But having children (at any age) makes us grow up a little faster than those who don't. You have a child now, so naturally you have someone else's intrests to look out for. Once you have a child, they should ALWAYS ... (read in full...)

A.   10 October 2007: Wow, that's a hard pill to swallow. To be betrayed by the two people who should love and care for you the most must be very painful. The advice I am going to give is strictly my optinion, you should consider all the advice that's been given and ... (read in full...)

A.   10 October 2007: Well, it's been 3 months, I think she should get the point by now. Personally, I don't think you "owe" her an explaination considering the damage she's caused, however, if you want her to stop calling so you can both move on with your lives, then I ... (read in full...)

A.   3 October 2007: Try your best to confine your jealousy. I know it's not easy, but your giving her exactly what she wants. She is minipulating you to get your attention and a reaction which (in her mind) confirms that you really do love her. It's not the best way ... (read in full...)

A.   28 September 2007: You guys are right. I don't know why I keep questioning myself on this. If it were me giving someone else advice on this situation I would be saying the same things. I suppose when "your" the one who is actually going through the experience you ... (read in full...)

A.   26 September 2007: Gosh NO! I can tell you from experience. Trust me, just because she was a virgin when you met does not mean that she needs to experience sex with someone else. This will only complicate things and she will begin to negotiate her feelings for you. ... (read in full...)
