A.   3 January 2012: Its tough being married to someone for 20 years and loving someone else along the side. By now you know where your heart is. If your kids are grown I say go for it. I'm sure they are a good part of the reason why u stayed all this while. Loving and ... (read in full...)

Q.   So a while ago my best friend asked me if I had feelings for her, I said I did. She had her suspicions because she thought I cared too much and came out and asked, and I answered truthfully. Before hand I knew she didn't like me that way because ...

A.   30 December 2011: Tell her you want to talk to her. Tell her she is still your best friend no matter what. She's avoiding you because she feels feelings are now involved. Tell her and show her you can handle your feelings because you didn't just start feeling like ... (read in full...)

A.   27 December 2011: Not much you can do. The worst thing anyone can do is break up without a reason. Makes you wonder what you did wrongly. You didn't do anything wrongly (unless you've left some info out) he is the problem, he's the one with issues. I mean after two ... (read in full...)

A.   17 December 2011: Why do people cheat? Possibly because they are in some way unhappy. Your case..... Known each other for 23 years is a longtime a huge plus and its also why finding out she's done this is so difficult to deal with. Excusable, no. Thing is as humans ... (read in full...)

A.   12 December 2011: You want to eat your cake and have it ...... Okay let's see here if this thing with man A is a one time thing I will kind of understand but why are you planning on doing it a 2nd, 3rd and possibly a 4th time? You need to answer a few questions for ... (read in full...)

Q.   I had a fling with a guy at my job for 2 years. He wasn't what I expected so we ended the relationship. It took awhile for him to go away because he was still calling and texting for six more months after. I have moved on and now pregnant and ...

A.   8 December 2011: You broke his heart and he's trying to deal with it. 2 years is sort of a long time to date someone and then opt out which was what you did. If your heart has never been broken then you'll never understand the pain you've caused and are still ... (read in full...)

A.   18 November 2011: He should be allowed to date other people and so should you. It doesn't help that he has all these built up emotions he can't express. When he dates other girls it gives hom a clear perspective of what they're like, can compare in his head and help ... (read in full...)

A.   17 November 2011: Absolutely ridiculous! At 26 how could she love a 65 year old man. Thing is, she's not 'in love' with him, but maybe getting the sort of attention she's been craving for from him and also he's doing it for her in the sexual department as well. ... (read in full...)

A.   16 November 2011: Give him time to put his thoughts, feelings together so that he can make a decision. I think he likes you, but the pace is too fast for him. When he comes back, don't say anything about this, leave it up to him. You've said enough. The ball is now ... (read in full...)

A.   12 November 2011: Its always a wise decision since you're considering marriage to be with someone you're attracted to and have chemistry with. It goes a long way when the chips are down 10 years down the road. Then you want to think, this other person has better ... (read in full...)

A.   1 November 2011: This was a married man and you both knew you weren't going to divorce your partners. You should have had a limit to which you wanted to fall for him. Sounds like you fell in love with him and now that the inevitable has happened, you're hurting ... (read in full...)

A.   29 October 2011: Sounds like this guy only comes back when he needs something- possibly money (I may be wrong) He has disrespected you so many times. Don't allow it. Love is out there- May not be packaged the way you want, so you're probably going to need to change ... (read in full...)

A.   1 October 2011: Perhaps he's not doing it correctly. If done right its definitely a turn on. Some guys use their teeth, which is just horrid; for some, the sucking is too intense which isn't it as well. It should be a gentle caress with the tongue along side ... (read in full...)

A.   8 September 2011: With 2 kids you definitely need help at home. Discuss with hom there's no way you can combine house chores and work - you'll break down soon enough. So men don't see it, some don't want to see it. Seems to me you've done it all this time without ... (read in full...)

A.   8 September 2011: Everyone lies about an affair because its totally wrong. He's going to deny until you lay it all out for him on the table. He may feel smart but guess what you're sharper than he thinks. Its totally wrong what he did, unforgivable and once a cheat, ... (read in full...)
