A.   5 September 2008: Lots of people (or one person?) have been writing in about porn lately. I understand that it can hurt a woman’s ego to know their man likes looking at porn stars or whatever. But can you honestly say you have never looked at a handsome man, on the ... (read in full...)

Faced with the dilemma of abandoning my 30 year marriage or losing the lost (and found) love I yearned for so much!

Q.   I love my lover so much but find it so difficult to leave my wife and daughter. Two years ago, over 30 years on, the love of my life contacted me. I always felt it only was a matter of time before we were in touch again. Since then we have formed a...

A.   5 September 2008: It seems you have already mentally checked out of the marriage, so if you don't love your wife I would say leave. But that doesn't mean that things will work out with your mistress. Sometimes in a situation like this, we have built that other ... (read in full...)

A.   26 August 2008: It's not necessarily a selfish thing if she told her boyfriend the truth. If I was cheated on I would want to know for several reasons. First, if there is a problem in the relationship that may have lead to the cheating, then both people n... (read in full...)

A.   15 August 2008: If you don't know anyone who can get it for you, and you can't walk to a free clinic to get it, I'm afraid you will need to tell your family. They may be angry you are having sex, but I'm sure your family cares about you and hopefully they will ... (read in full...)

A.   5 August 2008: Well, like lexilou said, it would be pretty difficult for a guy to have sex for 30 mins, but you need to talk to him about the other things he can do to help you to climax. It's odd that he hasn't asked you about what you like, etc, but then you ... (read in full...)

A.   29 July 2008: I don't think that this guy will change, but if you really really wanted to work it out you could try couples counseling. I think you should leave, but if you want to work things out with him, let him know that he needs to get to the bottom of why ... (read in full...)

A.   18 April 2008: Ok, you are not alone on this. Many women cannot get off from just sex. In fact, MANY women do NOT reach orgasm through vaginal intercourse alone. Some men do not understand this, but there is usually nothing you can do about this and it is WAY ... (read in full...)
