My boyfriend pays a lot of attention to our roommate!

Q.   My boyfriend and I live together with two other roommates. Whenever the female roommate is around, he gets excited because she is usually at her boyfriend's house. He always tries going by her room to initiate conversation with her. Also, if it is ...

A.   26 July 2010: It's natural for your boyfriend to want to look at other attractive women. That will never go away. I don't think he really wishes she would cover herself up, either. As for whether or not he would cheat on you, that's hard to predict. Most guy... (read in full...)

A.   5 July 2010: YES, IT IS A GAME. It is always a game. Also, she likes you. The two things are true at the same time. You have known her only five days. You know that you will see each other many more times. GO SLOW. Do not rush into a dating relation... (read in full...)

Q.   "Be who you are! is what they say. But the uestion is: "Who am I"...

A.   5 July 2010: "Be yourself" is a dumb thing to say, honestly. You should be the person you WANT to be. If you don't know how, FAKE it. ACT LIKE that person. You'll learn, and someday you'll be the real thing. You've got lots of time.... (read in full...)

I like my best friend's brother!

Q.   Dear Cupid, I really like my best friends brother and he's really cute and funny and he's like my dream guy but I'm kind of scared to ask him out because he's two years older than me and if we get together and then break up I don't want it to be ac...

A.   2 July 2010: As for being older than you, it doesn't seem to me like two years is a big difference at your age. As for the potential awkwardness: Relationships are complicated. Mature people handle complications in mature ways. Probably it will all work out... (read in full...)

Girls carrying condoms.

Q.   Hi, my boyfriend and I have discussed having sex and agreed that while we both would like to have sex with eachother there isn't a pressure on either of us to do it. This is fine , however a few days ago we were in a position where we were go...

A.   2 July 2010: Carrying a condom to have sex with your boyfriend is in no way slutty or promiscuous. You've already shown good judgment by waiting, and carrying a condom would just be more good judgment. In fact, carry several. Good for you.... (read in full...)

Q.   I am trying to be patient about this.. But, I would like to know how I should be feeling and what not about this. I leave for Texas tomorrow and will be gone away from my boyfriend for 5 days. Yesterday, a friend and I went over to my sisters ho...

A.   2 July 2010: I don't know if I submitted it after I typed it. Grrr. Here it is again: It's not about gas money. He's sad that you're leaving for 5 days. You're sad too, right? But you're the one going on an exciting trip, and he's the one being left h... (read in full...)

I was a jerk and regret it, is there any hope?

Q.   So, this girl at my high school was very obvious about liking me, she wanted to hold onto my arm going down stairs, was constantly watching me, turned in my direction, and other things. But when some other girls actually asked me out, i pulled my ...

A.   2 July 2010: Walk up next to her when she's walking, take her hand and put it wherever she puts it, smile at her, and say "Miss me?" She might pull away just to show you she can, and to even the score. If she does, react in a lighthearted way. Yes, th... (read in full...)

Caught between my parents, with my little sister. Need to find a way to improve my situation.

Q.   Okay so this isn't your typical relationship question, has more to do with family, but i've always relied on you guys for help in the past so i can't think of a place i'd feel better asking this. So i absolutely hate my mom. Long story short, she...

A.   29 June 2010: Minor point of fact: There is a cherry-flavored non-alcoholic soft drink called Cheerwine. That's probably what she was talking about. Don't know what to tell you about the rest of it. Living with your little sister would probably help her turn... (read in full...)

How long before we can become exclusive?

Q.   I am 36 and was divorced a few years ago. Since my divorce I have had a few relationships (one lasted over a year)and lots of dates. All of the women I met and dated were smart, funny, generally fine and for the most part they like me much more ...

A.   29 June 2010: "Help her know how much I like her without scaring her away." This to me is one of the most mysterious differences between men and women. Men always want to pour their guts out to women and tell them how beautiful they are and how much they lik... (read in full...)

How can I tell if this is really just him having a laugh with his mates?

Q.   I just started a brand new relationship, with a guy that I would usually ignore (he's not the type of guy I normally hang around with so our personalities are really different) he's amazing, romantic and really funny. I'm 17 and I've had a reall...

A.   29 June 2010: If someone were spending time with you just for the purpose of being mean in the end, he would have to be a real psychopath. Like something out of the movies. It's possible, but unlikely. If he pressures you to have sex right away, or if he wants ... (read in full...)

Went too far on the first date?

Q.   I recently left an abusive young man that I had been dating for 3 years, because he had cheated on me several times and would try and pressure me to sleep with him. I'm young, only 18, and still a virgin, I never gave in to his demands. Soon after I ...

A.   28 June 2010: If you went too far for your own morals or comfort, then okay, you've learned that lesson, right? But I'm not sure why you think you've ruined your chances with him. I doubt he thinks you went too far. You didn't have sex. You didn't even get ... (read in full...)

Mixed Signals...

Q.   Ok long story short. There's been a female I've been interested in and I believe she has been interested in me as well. I say this because I always catch her staring at me, for long amounts of time. She sat in front of me once and kept looking back ...

A.   28 June 2010: Probably real conversation with someone she is attracted to makes her feel awkward just like it does you. Probably the way she deals with feeling awkward is to stare at her phone. Lots of people are developing that habit. Don't ever take one ... (read in full...)

Online dating, does it really work?

Q.   Well, my girlfriend and I broke up about 8 months ago now. It was for the best, and while I've enjoyed my solitude again, I'm beginning to get lonely. The problem is, I'm not sure where to meet people. Sure there are the bars, but I would prefer ...

A.   25 June 2010: I have used both okcupid.com and match.com. Both had a fair number of attractive women and a whole bunch of unattractive ones. I only actually met a few girls and never had much luck with any of them. Your mileage may vary. OKcupid.com is... (read in full...)

Q.   Where to begin. First I am posting anonymously because the girl that I have an issue with found my post on the user name last time. But my situation from before was that my neighbors are quite close with my family. This has been going on for nea...

A.   23 June 2010: I must say you are quite the upstanding gentleman not to have taken advantage of the situation. Hmm, you have hot jailbait falling all over herself to catch your attention, and her parents' blessing? Can I trade my problems for yours?? Sorry, ... (read in full...)

A.   23 June 2010: IT IS OKAY TO BE SELFISH. This is your one and only life, my man. You sound highly incompatible and like you really aren't in love. Looking back on life, we tend to regret not the things we do, but the things we don't do.... (read in full...)

A.   23 June 2010: The best thing you can do is just slow it down and enjoy where you are right now. If he can't slow down and enjoy it with you because he's wrapped up in having sex, then I think things will seem clearer to you.... (read in full...)

A.   23 June 2010: Here are the informative parts of your question: "I feel that I may be smothering her because we hang out pretty much every single day." "I feel like she just needs more space because we hang out too often." "I dont think she is worried about... (read in full...)

A.   23 June 2010: "The things you own end up owning you." --Tyler Durden May I first point out that you referred to his ring AS YOURSELF. "I'm the only one he was willing to throw away." He didn't throw you away. You are still together. It was just a piece of... (read in full...)

A.   12 June 2010: You broke up with him and then you took him back. Did you have any good sex before "he quickly pulled away" from you? If so, then I have no idea. If not, then here's your explanation. He couldn't get it up and it resulted in the first woman he... (read in full...)
