A.   27 December 2008: My foolish friend... when it comes to love, we cannot murder it, anymore than we can give birth to it. The love we feel in our hearts is something that lives beyond our mortal control. Love comes when it comes and goes when it goes. The best we can ... (read in full...)

A.   27 December 2008: Oh darlin, I can relate. I think most of us, men and women alike, had a huge crush on a teacher or older adult at some point in our teenage years. But sweetie -- a 16 year old girl coming on to a 30 year old man is just NOT appropriate. And h... (read in full...)

It seems to me that women don't really like men that much and they could be better off by themselves.

Q.   Hi, I'd say I'm fairly young at my age, and I've had very little contact with the opposite sex as I'm quite shy. My question has more to do with curiosity and confusion. It seems to me that women don't seem to like men all that as much, and that t...

A.   27 December 2008: Hi again... I had another thought. You said you are quite shy. Shy men can be tough. How is a woman to tell the difference between a man who is shy and a man is disinterested or ignoring her? Women are no more mind readers than men, though lots of ... (read in full...)

A.   27 December 2008: Darlin' I am so sorry. It sounds like you are heartbroken and in a lot of pain. Sadly, I think your girlfriend means what she says. She is not initiating or returning your calls because she is trying to move on from your relationship. It wouldn't ... (read in full...)

Q.   is it true women like guys who shave better than guys who gotta bush????...

A.   27 December 2008: Personally I like men to shave... their faces. Chests, and lower? No. leave that there. I mean, keep it neat and trimmed... but if I'm going to get intimate with a man, I want to feel like I'm with a MAN... not a 12 year old boy. That kinda freaks ... (read in full...)

A.   28 November 2008: It's doubtful this guy will ever take you seriously as a girlfriend. You slept with him too soon and he doesn't respect you. You have feelings for him and as you said... you will get hurt. Sounds like you have to choose between letting go of your ... (read in full...)

A.   28 November 2008: Honey, it's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean. There is just SO SO SO much more to sex than what size the guy's package is. There is also the issue of this guy may not be fully "front and center" just fooling around if you know ... (read in full...)

A.   28 November 2008: I think it's a good sign. She would NOT be looking, or smiling, if she didn't like you a little. The ignoring you part when you pay attention is her trying to hide her interest. She is waiting for you to make the move. I assume based on your age ... (read in full...)
