Why did he give up his trip with the boys?

Q.   My boyfriend turned down a golf trip with the guys next weekend. It's out of town and they go every year. He said it's because he knows I worry and he doesn't want to upset me. In the past I have given him grief. Many of the guys go to strip club...

A.   19 June 2017: He did not want to hear it this year around, you said it yourself you give him grief about it and he knows you don't like it. He probably thought it was not worth enduring just to spend time hanging around in a hotel room or worrying you. There is ... (read in full...)

A.   17 June 2017: It does seem like you have planned things to the last detail, I can respect how much though you put in to it, having children is certainly not an easy task.What I do find worrying is the fact that you might not comprehend life doesn't always go as ... (read in full...)

Is it possible for a virgin to contract a PID?

Q.   Hello, I'm in my thirties and I got married about two months ago and my wife is 27. My wife told me she's a virgin,that she didn't have sex in her previous relationships but I opened up to her that I've had sex before. On our first night, she...

A.   7 June 2017: As far as vaginal sizes I wouldn't know. But I assume just like penises vaginas come in different sizes so maybe hers is slightly wider than the girth of your penis and vice versa. Not everyone's genitals perfectly fit together like a lego piece. ... (read in full...)

A.   7 June 2017: Could this arrangement be the reason why you are both in and out of relationships still? After 10 years of continuously sleeping with one an other I find it difficult to believe no lasting bond has formed between the two of you. Are you afraid h... (read in full...)

Is my perfectionist boyfriend overly critical of my looks? Or am I oversensitive?

A.   6 June 2017: How come he has this critical eye for your "imperfections" but not his own? I call this ugly insecure man syndrome.(pretty self-explanatory) he landed a beautiful woman like you and now his confidence is through the roof. So his comments about l... (read in full...)

Is it possible that there actually isn't anyone out there for you?

Am I crazy or is this gaslighting?

Q.   Am I crazy? My husband has the habit of lying to me about little things. For example, he'll say he has nothing planned for the weekend and the weekend will roll around and he'll tell me that he has to go to work (and he does- I can verify that and ...

Is my partner setting things up to look for a fight?

Q.   My partner is very forgretful. He puts his phone down and forgets where and says he cant find it. Then he pushes up the stress by indirectly accusing me or someone else of taking it. Then he gets aggressive and abusive to me, telling me I get...
