Guys, are women with big boobs more 'valuable' than the rest of us?

Q.   I was talking to my BF and he said that he was more inclined to treat a woman with big boobs with more care, respect and spoil her than a woman with smaller boobs. Of course I have a small B cup, and I asked him why he was with me. He said that I ...

A.   14 April 2012: Well I don't think this is such a big issue, I mean, this is life. Let's be honest, big boobs attract many men. And guys are more liely to be kind to those girls who want something from them. I mean, I am not an athletic guy, I know I don't have... (read in full...)

A.   18 March 2012: If I were you, I would have said: "Was he? Then go f%ck him." I mean if it's about sizes she encountered before you got together than it's one thing (and still understandable if someone feels insecure even about that, 'cause no considerate gf woul... (read in full...)

The expression "stop looking and you'll find someone" isn't working for me!

Q.   I've heard this over and over again... That the reason I can't find a girlfriend is because I'm looking for one, and that as soon as I stop looking, I'll suddenly end up in a relationship. "Happens when you least expect it," "I found my partner when ...

A.   11 March 2012: I think it means that you have to get to know girls without thinking about getting into some kind of reltionship with them. Just talk to them casually and stuff. Don't expect more, just let it happen if it happens, if not, just go on. Meet new ... (read in full...)

I'm in love with my mom's boyfriend's son what should I do?

Q.   My mom's boyfriend's son and I really love eachother but don't know what our parents will say. They are not married so there shouldn't be anything wrong with that. What should we do?...

A.   27 February 2012: I don't think there's anything wrong with that. You are not relatives or anything.... (read in full...)

I can't let go and I'm scared I never will

Q.   Hey agony aunts.... I pray someone out there can help.. My ex and I broke up four years ago just after uni - it was a 4 year relationship. It was a messy breakup - he ditched me saying he wanted to be on his own and then I found out a week later he...

A.   21 February 2012: Have you tried to find someone else who actually wants to be with you? Your life is yours, don't let any human being (who is not interested in you) have that much power over you. If you want to let him go, you can, it's all up to you. If you don't ... (read in full...)

I'm a guy and I hate sex with my fiance

Q.   I'm not sure what to do anymore. I hate having sex with her, and the thought of it now sadly, turns me off anymore. Whenever I try to get her in the mood, I am always shot down. And I mean always. So I stop wanting it, and then my fiance c...

A.   9 February 2012: Dunno. For me, sex is a fundamental part of a relationship. I have just broken up with my gf and sometimes I just want to call her and get back together - but there's one thing that really stops me to do so and that's remembering how disappointing ... (read in full...)

Why was my partner checking the text messages on my mobile phone? She has no reason to doubt me!

Q.   Well I guess this is a common issue and has been answered many times before but here it goes.. Last night I found my partner going through my mobile phone text messages. Well I found that my phone light was on and it was clear she had just put it ...

A.   9 February 2012: So... I think checking your phone is not the biggest issue, I mean I would be more bothered by the lies and the lack of communication. This is really not a combination you would want in a relationship. And what do you mean you are "not allowed to ... (read in full...)

Am I asking for too much when I want to know her plans and what she does when we're not together?

Q.   I feel myself and my partner of 7 years have an issue between us which is affecting our relationship, one of communication. We do not seem to have the same view where it comes to sharing information and talking about things. I like to talk abo...

A.   4 February 2012: I have just broken up with my girlfriend for roughly the same reasons. I don't want to sound like some super wise guy, I can only share my opinion: if you like (or even love) someone, you don't feel that it is such a burden to talk about yourself... (read in full...)

Should I get back with my ex? She left me for her ex, but he beat her up so she wants to come back to me again!

Q.   So my ex gf, who dumped me to get back with her ex boyfriend who hits her, wants to get back together. Im the complete opposite of her ex, hes a badboy kind of guy who doesnt do shit with his life, while i on the other hand, work two dead end jobs ...

A.   28 June 2011: I'd rather be with a girl who wants to be with me, not with someone else. I think she would use you as her emotional tampon. Personally, I wouldn't want that. She's into bad boys anyways. If I were you, I'd skip on this one. I think you have enou... (read in full...)

How often do guys think about sex?

Q.   Okaay, this is a bit of an odd question, but following this conversation I had with one of my guy friends about how often guys think about sex (7 seconds, or something??) I was wondering: Guys, how often do you think about having sex with girls yo...

A.   23 June 2011: Sometimes I fantasize about sex with some good-looking colleagues and stuff, plus when I see attractive girls, sex gets into my mind almost all the time. I also think most men would approach a woman because they want sex, so I think it's obvi... (read in full...)

A.   14 June 2011: So what? If there are girls in any club, than that club is interesting enough. One way to fight with your insecurities and low self-esteem is starting to believe that you are now a cool guy, and start acting that way. You are not like that yet, b... (read in full...)

My worry is that love isn't real, or doesn't last... Am I right? Does anyone have a loving relationship that has lasted???

Q.   Hey, I'm wondering if it is unrealistic to think that love can last? I've been with my bf 8 months, things are great, and he's talked about us moving in together in the next year and said that he'd like us to marry and have children some day, which ...

A.   14 June 2011: I had my share of thinking about this myself and what I think is that there are relationships that last - you just need to be a bit... realistic and rational. Chances are that you will find someone with whom you will love each other from the firs... (read in full...)

A.   11 June 2011: When I was in a situation like this in the past (sperated from a loved one for a while) I actually realized how lucky we are nowdays, since at least we have the telephone, e-mail, chat, skype, whatever (even if you can't use them sometimes). J... (read in full...)

Caught my dad red handed with porn, what do I do?

Q.   I don't know wha to do. This evening I walked down stairs to find my Dad in the sitting room on his own watching "Pornhub". He wasn't doing any hand 'business' but it was clear what was going on. I dont mention it at the time. But i am now left ...

A.   10 June 2011: Just say something funny. Girls like that. I don't look that good either and girls don't really pay attention to me until I tell them some crazy story or something they can laugh at. They like to be entertained. Don't you have friends who would in... (read in full...)

Relationships and titles...

Q.   When in a relationship, how important is a title (boyfriend, girlfriend, fiancee, etc) to you? Does it matter if you have a title or not? Do you think a title means committment? Very interested in hearing your thoughts... ...

A.   9 June 2011: I think it is important. The "title" signifies the relationship, you can then tell what you can expect from your partner and what your partner can expect from you. To tell you some examples: I've heard lots of stories where two people were bhev... (read in full...)

2 years foward, she does not call or text as much. Is it normal?

Q.   so me and my girlfriend have been together for almost 2 years now and we get along great, we have yet to have an argument and we support each other and when we're with each other, we are as happy as can be. But lately it seems my girlfriend doesnt ...

A.   9 June 2011: Maybe she asked this question to herself, too. When both partners are busy and not have enough time for each other, they can get into this vicious cycle, telling to themselves: "He/she doesn't care about me that much any more, so why should I?" And ... (read in full...)

My ex has shown that he really doesn't care but I want him back!

Q.   Hello! I'm in an emotional wreck right now. Well i broke up with my bf last week and now im hurt so bad. I had good reasons to let him go, but im just so in love with him that no matter what he do, i'll take him back/be with him. We've been together ...

A.   9 June 2011: Remember one thing: if you were happy before you knew someone, you can be happy after they're gone. Remember those moments before you knew him? There you go. See, you are the only constant person in your life. You may accept someone at some poi... (read in full...)

Which is worse, her cheating or my looking at her email?

Q.   Long story short, girl I was seeing I found out was having sexy liaisons on the Internet with a couple of guys she knows. They didn't have sex or were intimate (I don't think, anyway) but exchanged a bunch of messages like "I miss you" or computer ...

A.   7 June 2011: I think she was the one who made a mistake. Well, not even one, cause she was doing this habitually. If my gf checked my email account and confronted me because of such a thing, I would certainly be a bit angry, but I would at least try to expl... (read in full...)

Ex and I are wanting to get back together. Then I catch her and my best friend making out. Now what?

Q.   Me and my ex-girlfriend have been talking about getting back together for the past week or so. I was over at my best friends house and we were swimming with him and all of his family. Me and my ex or soon to be girlfriend were having a wonderfu...

A.   7 June 2011: Yes, you were pretty much betrayed. I mean, you were talking about getting back together, had a great time with you but as soon as you walk out, she makes out with your friend? Who has a girlfriend, too? I think it's pretty messed up. Look, I have ... (read in full...)

A.   4 June 2011: I won't say that looks don't matter, because it's not true, but if you are a guy, it doesn't count THAT heavily. Confidence does, so just build up a f¤¤¤ you-approach, do whatever you like to do and be brave: go talk to people and stuff. Think abou... (read in full...)

My friend doesn't use facebook or her phone. How does she do it?

Q.   I find it very strange that my best friend doesn't have facebook and hardly uses her mobile!? She's 18 so it's werid enough she doesn't have facebook, but the other day i realized she isn't a fan of using her phone either!?? It just is VERY rare of ...

A.   4 June 2011: I mean... people had pretty good social lives even before there was Internet, or telephone, let alone FB. You won't have to wait five years and someone will come out with something new and make you believe that without that, you can't exist. Just ... (read in full...)

Q.   I'm really lost here people and I don't know what else to do? I've had a few difficult years of late. My Dad was diagnosed terminally ill and as a result past away a few months ago. I was with a girl who literally changed over night. Wh...

A.   12 January 2011: Tell your new girlfriend that you love her and want her by your side. You can do nothing else, I suppose, apart from telling everyone how crazy your ex is (people believe everything if they hear it a lot, even if it is not true). If she wants to be ... (read in full...)

Why does my fiance have the desire to look at porn when we have a healthy sex life?

Q.   I need a man's perspective on an issue. Me and my fiance have a healthy sex life. I, unlike some women, have a sex drive (I'm not a slut, I am very faithful to him). I try to keep things interesting in the bedroom and I never refuse him when ...

A.   29 April 2010: So what are you worried about? Porn is just porn. It doesn't mean you're not enough for him, guys watch it because they like to watch it but that doesn't mean they fall in love with a porn actress and leave their significant other for them. They ... (read in full...)

He broke up with me because of my past but we still have feelings for each other, should I be hopeful that we will get back together?

Q.   I recently broke up with my bf of 1 and a half years. It was a painful breakup because we both love each other a lot. My bf suddenly asked me to leave him because he said he realised he will never be happy with me. I had couple of bfs before and he ...

A.   16 March 2010: You should talk to him about this, not about other stuff and saying "I love you" to each other, that leads nowhere. Talk the boyfriends issue through, I think he has something else in mind that bothers him because I couldn't imagine that there are ... (read in full...)

Can I ever really accept he cheated?

Q.   So, I'm 19. I've been with my boyfriend for nearly a year and a half. He's 22. A month before our 1 year anniversary he cheated on me. I only found this out 2 months later, from the girl he'd cheated on me with. We broke up when I found out, I ...

A.   13 March 2010: I think you can't solve this by yourself, you just have to talk to him about the whole thing. Why did he cheat? Is he sorry for that? You may be able to talk this through but if you want my advice, I would dump him. The reason is simple: I am not ... (read in full...)

A.   13 March 2010: Don't be childish, maybe she just forgot it. But even if not, if you really are good friends, just get her something. Then you can say you did everything to maintain the friendship. If she doesn't realizie after it that she should have done the same ... (read in full...)

Q.   I was in a relationship with this guy for almost 3 years, he broke up with me for no reason when i ask him he said that i loved him too much. i really loved him and he really broke my heart. after the break up i still talked to him and i begged him ...

A.   10 February 2010: You'd better distance yourself from the guy as much as possible and find new friends, new interets, hobbies, anything that keeps you busy so you will not be thinking of him all the time. You deserve a better life than longing for someone who doesn't ... (read in full...)

Is finding Mister Right really possible or is it just too tall an order for a dreamer?

Q.   I’ve been feeling bewildered lately, mostly because of work and a loaded school schedule, but also because I am yet to find love or so I feel. I want to feel the rush of nurturing a relationship into something beautiful; I want to find that certain ...

A.   10 February 2010: In my opinion, there is no such thing as "Mr. Right". You want to find someone who is perfect but since we are all humans, none of us is perfect. However, you can find someone who will be the right man in the right place. Maybe it is your current ... (read in full...)

How can someone get over someone?

Q.   How can someone get over someone when it hurts really bad? I'm in deep pain.. I hurt and I feel my life is on hold. I just miss him all the time and he doesn't want to even talk to me. He doesn't respond to my calls or texts.. He took advantage of ...

A.   3 February 2010: Just be with your friends, go to parties, enjoy life, whatever. Try some sports, try something new and just keep yourself occupied. Your life is yours and yours only, don't let anyone ruin it, it's only a matter of decisions. He is nothing special, ... (read in full...)

He's been lying to me this whole time. Should I leave him or try to forgive him?

Q.   My boyfriend lied to me for THREE YEARS about his porn use. Don't get me wrong, I know he wanks. He's told me so, and he had even shown me the website he used (a very well known free amateur site). Now here's the thing: he told me he didn't like ...

A.   25 January 2010: Have you tried talking to him about this? I would suggest you get some sexy lingerie or do something else that turns him on and makes sex more exciting and see if he behaves the same way, maybe he got bored with the same sex-routine after these ... (read in full...)

Should I leave? I need an outsiders point of view please..

Q.   I find my relationship problems difficult to talk to with my friends and family. I dont like them to see me as weak or troubled or i guess burden them with my troubles so i normally keep everything to myself and try to deal with things. But i have ...

A.   25 December 2009: If you ask me, I think you should talk about this in a moment when you are not in an argument. Tell him that you love him but you hate the things he says and also tell him that everyone can get upset sometimes but if he just can't count to ten ... (read in full...)
