Blunt and straight to the point.

At the end of the day there is little use in pussyfooting around situations, I say them as I see them.

Sometimes it doesn't make pleasant reading but it is what people need to see.

They want answers and not wishy washy stuff to make them more confused.

I've been reflecting on my relationship, and I feel that although I love my B/f and want him to be happy, it feels one-sided, and I'm not sure I want to carry on in this way

Q.   I need some help to weigh up my relationship, please. I feel I put in most of the effort and it is starting to get to me. We've been together 18 months. It feels like i'm always the one suggesting things to do, like going to the cinema or out for ...

A.   29 February 2012: Relationships are all about give and take from both sides, but it seems in your case, you are doing all the giving and he is doing all the taking. Have you talked about this? To put it bluntly I don't think you have a future together, based ... (read in full...)

I've had 2 relationships but slept with 60 guys!

Q.   heya, im 21 and have slept with 60 boys, but only ever had 2 serious realtionships. i know i have to change my ways but i dont know how help !!...

A.   19 January 2012: You have to ask yourself why you so easily sleep with men - 60 is a lot, especially for your age. My guess is insecurity or lack of self esteem is behind it over the doing it cos it's fun. If so, you need to put some pride back into yourself. Y... (read in full...)

Misbehaved while being drunk and high, and now I've messed up my chances with this guy I like

A.   10 December 2011: The simple problem here is drink and how it affects you. That's what you need to focus on, not dwell on what you have done. So you're single yes, but why do you feel the need to go out and get absolutely blotto? Did you do that before? Drink... (read in full...)

What's the best way to make her think, and choose me?

Q.   I've been fooling around with my classmate for long months now. Each time we went out, we ended up in bed together (not having sex, just petting and cuddling). She's in a long term relationship with someone else. Back when I started to fancy her, I ...

A.   20 July 2011: She has to make a choice and you have to tell her this. If she wants you, she has to end it with her bf first. If she wants her bf then she must end it with you immediately. She can't have both and you know that. I know you don't want to b... (read in full...)

A.   5 July 2011: Going away to university is one of the best things you can do in terms of learning to stand on your own two feet. You have to remember that almost everyone will be in the same boat when you arrive and just make the most of it, have a laugh an... (read in full...)

A.   27 June 2011: You have to try and remember that each person is different and every new person you meet needs to be given a chance and have a clean slate. In this case, you have a fiance and must be happy with him to have got engaged. What you don't want to do... (read in full...)

My BF has cheated on me so much and half the time it was when he was intoxicated and at parties, that I just can't trust him to go without me

Q.   My boyfriend and I have been dating on and off for a little over 2 years. I am 17 years old and he is just about to turn 21. We met when I was a freshman and he was a senior so obviously, the age difference didn't really matter to us to the extreme. ...

A.   27 June 2011: End the relationship. He is a shagger and probably always will be and while that is not acceptable in a relationship, it's also not good practice to stop people hanging out with friends. The problem here is that he and his friends have a certai... (read in full...)

A.   27 June 2011: This is often what happens to friends with benefits, one ends up falling for the other and can often end up messy. He can flirt with who he likes as you're not going out, you're just friends with benefits. If you want more, you have to ask him ... (read in full...)

A.   18 June 2011: There is no such word as can't. Quite simply nothing or no-one is forcing you to have sex and therefore you can say no. I think it's more of a case you don't want to. The situation is a mess already and then if people find out, all hell will bre... (read in full...)

A.   22 May 2011: It sounds like when you said your age he may have panicked and said he was 20 so you didn't think he was too young. You need to bring up the conversation with him face to face and tell him he needs to be honest with you. If he really does like... (read in full...)
