Is there a 'woman shortage'? - it seems that way to me!

Q.   I have heard time and time again that 'There is a man shortage', yet I've yet to see this myself. Every woman I know at work and socially is either married or in a relationship. To me there it is more like there is a Woman Shortage. Ma...

A.   26 August 2011: Many thanks for your advice. Like you say in the first comment, it seems like every one is in relationships or married and are happy. Those who are single dont exactly advertise that fact- that would be hard i guess. YOu get some very friendly ... (read in full...)

Am I being a pest to my married friend?

Q.   I am reasonably friendly with a female work colleague and we do tend to get on well and have good conversations, saying hello and smiling at each other at work, and occasionally having the odd short discussion. She always smiles when we do run i...

A.   16 June 2011: Thank you all for the great advice- i like the idea of pulling back a bit, and have started to do this already, although that's not hard when we work in the same buidling but on different floors etc No Im not ready for the completely walking ... (read in full...)

A.   15 June 2011: Hey thanks, good suggestion, I was starting to think of trying something like that too- Not that Im keeping score or anything, but yes, it should be mutual :)... (read in full...)

She's married, I'm single. But there is an attraction. Should I make a move? Do you think she gets a thrill out of talking to me? What should I do?.

Q.   I have been attracted to a woman who I work with for several months. I believe (through mutual eye contact mainly) that she feels a similar attraction toward me. We had never had a conversation other than to say the usual 'hellos' and ' hi!s'. I ...

A.   22 April 2011: Thanks for the great advice everyone, Ive learnt from this that it would not be in anyone's best interests in trying to progress this beyond a friendship, which is always a shame when the 'one fish in the sea' that you are interested in, is already ... (read in full...)

Body Language: Is It Really Reliable?

Q.   Okay, so to keep this short, essentially there's this man I'm crushing on, hard...And I think he likes me too because I've done some reading up on male body language, like stuff guys do when they're interested in a girl, and he does almost ...

A.   22 April 2011: I heard somewhere that you should not take body language or the words being spoken in isolation. I would therefore draw you own conclusions from a combination of the two. In saying that if there is a good combination of positive body language... (read in full...)

What is the point of "adding" friends and contacts if you don't communicate with them?

Q.   I really don't understand social interaction - or I'm sceptic about it. I have a blackberry, and I do have contacts on blackberry messenger. However I know If I don't message, then the others wouldn't. They'll only message if they need something. ...

A.   21 April 2011: What I've noticed with Facebook is that it is almost like a competition to show who is most popular. It seems to be a boost to one's self esteem, as in 'Look how popular I am' Ive seen profiles with 'Friends' in the thousands. I usually think 'I... (read in full...)

Infatuated with coworker, but don't want to ruin my marriage. Any help would be appreciated.

Q.   I've been married for 10 years, we have 2 young kids and the marriage is not bad, but not in great shape either. Life is repetitive and somewhat stale. I have an infatuation with a workmate that is under control from an outsider's persp...

A.   20 April 2011: Not really helping here but can kind of see what you are going through- mainly in relation to the infatuation with a work mate (see my question from yesterday) . I can very much relate to what you are going through but from a very different angle- I ... (read in full...)

A.   19 April 2011: Hey thanks for your answers they are all great. I am not planning of making any moves but on the other hand do not want to lose her as a friend, so will have to be satisfied with that I did have some doubts about perhaps there was somethin... (read in full...)

I'm attracted to someone else and it's not my husband, what can I do?

Q.   Hi, I am married but am really attracted to another guy. We are good friends - worked together, have since left my job, so at least the temptation is not so much there. I know for a fact if this person asked me out(I know he had feelings for me)i ...

Q.   ok ..so the guy that i really like is single again...i dont know if he has feeling for me or what..but i still really like him...should i try to get with him or should i let him ask me first?...

A.   19 April 2011: As a guy, i always find it nice if there are some clues that she is interested - such as eye contact and starting a conversion. If you have not seen any evidence so far of him being interested in you, you may need to make some effort, ie to test ... (read in full...)
