A.   18 April 2008: Don't worry to much about it, I think it is great that you two have looked into it together. Just remember that communication is very important. You have to tell each other what feels good and what you don't like. It is different for everyone and ... (read in full...)

I want to know if he loves me but I get mixed signals from him! How should I proceed?

Q.   My boyfriend and I have been dating for a year now and he says he loves me and sometimes says he is in love with me and sometimes says he doesn't know or no. When he doesn't know, or says no, he says it is because I put pressure on him or he feels ...

A.   15 April 2008: He seems to be full of crap. You guys have been together for a year, so yes, he should know if he loves you by now. And from your question, it seems that he is blaming YOU as to why he hasn't made up his mind! There must be good things about him, ... (read in full...)

Q.   I'm a bit confused... a friend of a friend was texting me the other night asking me to go he pub. I couldn't because i was in work early the next morning. I told him and he was trying for ages to persuade me to go.. although i never..so he continued ...

A.   15 April 2008: If you know for a fact that he is 'not that type of guy', then I would say it's a good possibility that he has a crush on you. Or at the very least he seems to want to get to know you better if he wants to hang out with you. ... (read in full...)

Q.   I am dating this guy that i really like, but he is four years older than me. I'm not sure that the age difference should be a problem, but i'm worried that he will expect me to have sex with him. When i was younger, i was raped by my cousin, and ...

A.   15 April 2008: Just tell him you are not ready. You don't even have to go into all the detail of why, he should respect you enough to not pressure you for sex no matter what your reasons for wanting to wait. If he pressures you after that, then he's a creep and ... (read in full...)

How do I give her the strength to be strong and take the step forward?

A.   15 April 2008: I don't know if strength is something you can give this woman. You should stop your affair until she can get her own head straitened out. I have never been married, but I believe with these kind of situations, the married person usually chooses to ... (read in full...)

I don't have a clue what I'm doing, and it's going to be her first time too.

Q.   I need help. Me and my g/f have been going out for 8 months, it's a long time for me and it's her first serious relationship. We've been taking it slow mainly because i think it's best if we do, she's still a virgin, and she's never even kissed a...

A.   15 April 2008: The best thing to do is talk to her about what feels good. For example, when your had is down there, ask if it fells good, ask 'does it feel better here, or here?', so you find the right spot, etc. But really with all this kind of stuff ... (read in full...)

A.   15 April 2008: I think he just wanted to sleep with you. He was drinking and texting you, so I'm sure sex was on his mind. If he was really interested, he would ask you to dinner. Also, I wouldn't go around telling people you are annoying or not attracti... (read in full...)

A.   15 April 2008: I would tell her on this second date you are going on. There's no way of knowing if it will make her run, but if she does, then she is not the right person for you. Your son should really be the most important person in your life and if the girl ... (read in full...)

Q.   I am so torn. I have been with this guy for 5 years. He has been verbally abusive to me for the past 3. I am only here because I think I might be afraid of starting over. Worse, he has done a number on my self-esteem. He's put me down so much and ...

A.   13 April 2008: It's scary to start over, but that doensn't mean you should stay in a bad situation. Try to take things one day at a time and keep telling yourself it will get easier, because it really will! It just takes time. And the more you keep taking his ... (read in full...)

His children are controlling his life, any suggestions?

Q.   How do you get a man to stop allowing his grown kids to control his choice of potential mates? They just don't want him to date anyone and i think that this is unfair. Inheritence is one of the reasons probably and i do not think that that is the ...

A.   8 April 2008: It's really up to him on what to do with the kids. As a parent, he is more responsible for this than they are. Did he divorce their mother? Because he could be letting them act like this because of guilt he still has. The best thing for you to ... (read in full...)

A.   8 April 2008: I would move on if I were you. Sometimes people can make a mistake and be forgiven, but the fact that he was not honest with you and then when you gave him hard evidence he made excuses for what he had done. I would say he is a lost cause. I ... (read in full...)

Q.   I have been living with my girlfriend for 8 years now. She has 2 boys 10 and 12 years old that only really know me as their dad. We have had some rough times in the past, partly because she suffers from SAD (seasonal affective disorder) and partly ...

A.   8 April 2008: It sounds like a really tough situation because of the kids involved. But I agree with the other comment, she needs to be faithful if this relationship is going to survive. If she doesn't understand that then I am afraid you should move on. Not ... (read in full...)
