My ex is dating my friend's sister and treating her like gold!

Q.   I dated a man for about six months last year. Things proceeded slowly (I was fine with that). I actually really liked him - I had sworn off dating after coming off a 14 year relationship. I liked him - and I truly feel like it was mutual. How...

A.   13 November 2013: Maybe she demanded it? Who knows? Facebook, however, is not an accurate guage of love or happiness, so stop putting to much faith in it. Second, if he's happier with her, more in love with her, more romantic with her, etc, it only means they are... (read in full...)

New to oral and looking for some tips

Q.   Hi guys, need some advice…I feel a bit of a soppy fish at the moment….I have recently started dating this woman, we have slept together a few times and shes more experienced than me but I find it difficult to 'go down on her'. I'm not really sure ...

A.   13 November 2013: I'd offer tips but you kind of have to figure it out yourself. Think of it as a learning process. Ask her how she wants you to do it. Have her point or even use her own finger. I've found that what works wonders on one woman can annoy the next... (read in full...)

Could someone give me a little pep talk or something about how I am not a bad person for cutting her out of my life?

Q.   Am I a bad person for cutting off an ex who wants to remain friends? My ex of 7 years (we mutually broke up 3 years ago) won't stop contacting me out of the eventhough I am now married and she is engaged. What is really confusing is that she was emot...

A.   13 November 2013: You should never feel guilty for cutting contact with people that make you feel crappy when you talk to them. What would be the point of maintaining those relationships? You don't owe her anything and her happiness is not your responsi... (read in full...)

How do I break it to her? I want to end this nearly 10 year relationship.

Q.   Hi, I'd like to know how to end a long term (nearly 10 year) relationship? I'm 27 and have been in the same relationship since 18. Initially it was long distance and we saw each other every weekend or other weekend but I inherited a house close to...

A.   13 November 2013: It's not really your place to figure that out, it's going to be her call, so don't worry about it. My advice is this: be aware that it's probably going to hurt her a lot and she's going to take it personally. Try to help her realize that there's ... (read in full...)

I'm hurt he ignored me!

Q.   Hi OK so i just don't know what to do in this situation and who's right and wrong really. :/ I was seeing my boyfriend for 5 months. We started off lovely, then after about a month he backed off and said he wanted to take it slow. I respec...

A.   12 November 2013: You were trying to force him to be something that he's not. It's your right, but it didn't work very well. You can call it controlling or not, that's unimportant. What this comes down to is compatibility, which you guys certainly were not. Don... (read in full...)

She freaked out a little when I said she was my everything!

Q.   Hi guys, I'm in a real pickle with the girl I love. We have been together for about 6months now and slowly but surely she has become the centre of my happiness. When ever I'm with her I feel electric and alive. I have had a couple of long term ...

A.   12 November 2013: Well, you can't force a relationship to happen, and if things are meant to be then these little incidents are irrelevant; you get over them and continue being together. But if this puts you at the brink of breaking up it means there are other ... (read in full...)

A.   12 November 2013: I'm not sure you guys are "meant to be". Also, in the future you need to be very selective with the cheesy things you tell women. Some love it and need it, others go running for the hills. For now you should just allow her to set the pace of ... (read in full...)

Haven't been feeling the need to be in a relationship -- is it because of ageing?

Q.   Dear Cupid, It's been a while since I fell in love or had that feeling of desire to be with someone. I think it's probably I am in a new enviorement as I moved to a new country. but I miss that feeling of love, attraction, chemistry, and a...

A.   11 November 2013: I went through a stage around your age where I felt the same. I didn't really think I wanted to put in the effort to make a relationship work, and I didn't want a fwb relationship either, so I persisted off of the occasional hook up. I occasionally ... (read in full...)

A.   11 November 2013: When you update your relationship on Facebook and make it official do they give you a certificate? One you could hang on the wall to really make it official. Worry about how your boyfriend treats you, not his social media privacy preferen... (read in full...)

A.   11 November 2013: It took me a few days the first time, the second took a little longer because my wife was breastfeeding, but it was still only months. I have friends who got people pregnant who they only slept with once. So, 7 years is waaay too long, there is... (read in full...)

A.   11 November 2013: I think fatherly advice's advice is great. A large % of men watch porn, some just hide it better than others. If you leave him you're going to leave a "great guy" for doing something that comes natural to him, just to find out that the next guy... (read in full...)

So far everything's been on her terms

Q.   I met a girl a few months ago, she is really lovely and funny and when we meet up we have such a good time together. Problem is she is rubbish at getting in contact, so the oonly time we properly talk is when we arrange to meet. Anyway things were ...

A.   11 November 2013: Why don't you give her another chance? One incident isn't necessarily an indication of the way things will always be. Just take things slowly, otherwise you risk getting hurt if she does have another incident. ... (read in full...)

Q.   My current situation is that I live with my boyfriend and my son from my previous relationship. He is great with my son and we get along really well the only thing that is bothering me is that he seems to think time with my son and me is our time ...

A.   11 November 2013: You can't fault him for having a life, he's not doing anything wrong. And, janniepeg is spot on with the porn thing. If it was a deal breaker you would have dumped him. It's probably very difficult to find a guy who doesn't watch porn, and, unf... (read in full...)

A.   10 November 2013: She's nuts. That's all you need to understand. Wait, that's not everything: the only reason you're with her is because you're too insecure to leave. You just need to accept the fact that you're with a horrible person and that she's never going to... (read in full...)

Q.   My boyfriend slapped me across the face, was it my fault? My boyfriend has Bipolar Disorder. He drinks a lot sometimes, and this annoys me, whether he is being annoying when he is drunk or not. Sometimes, he is hyper and happy when he is drunk...

A.   10 November 2013: The only thing you could have done to deserve it would be to physically attack him. Now though, you seem "aware" enough to realize he shouldn't have hit you. So what are you going to do with that information? As they say, "fool me once, shame on... (read in full...)

A.   9 November 2013: The only thing I would recommend would be that when he's not at all in a bad mood tell him, and don't say "change or else", that creates problems of its own. Tell him that you don't want either of you to be in an unhappy marriage so you absolute... (read in full...)
