Why do guys want the lights on, or my shirt off, during sex?

Q.   Hi peoples! Not to prescribe to stereotypes or anything, but it seems like every guy I've been with always says "I want to see you" when I say I want to keep my shirt on during sex or want the lights turned off. Anyone else notice this or w...

A.   10 October 2013: What she's saying, and it's a good point, is that he wants to see you naked because he likes what he sees. Had he preferred the light off or clothes on that'd be something to be concerned about. ... (read in full...)

I feel like I don't have any control over what happens to me.

Q.   I want a job so badly and I have had no luck finding one so far, and it's breaking my heart. It breaks my heart that I want so badly to have a better life, and I know I deserve good things, but I feel like no matter how hard I try, I don't have ...

A.   10 October 2013: Maybe you need to hire a job coach or whatever they're called. Borrow money if you have to. There's obviously a problem, but the problem isn't you as a person. Maybe your resume sucks, who knows? McDonald's isn't going to want to hire you unless y... (read in full...)

The idea of living with my boyfriend makes me feel panicky and trapped!

Q.   Hi I'm looking for some impartial advice because I'm really confused and not sure if there is something wrong with me or my relationship. Basically, I'm 28, have been with my boyfriend for over 3.5 years and I love him a lot. However I don't ...

A.   10 October 2013: Well, I've always got excited by the idea when it was brought up by the right person. When the wrong person asked I probably looked at her like she was crazy. Maybe you need to evaluate your relationship. See what you guys can do to improve ... (read in full...)

I want to date but never get asked!

Q.   It seems like many people fall in love the very first time they meet. From what I know, a lot of guys approach girls they don't know and ask them out. I have this one friend who's like a master at attracting guys. She would talk about how she and ...

A.   10 October 2013: Despite what you think, most guys are too nervous to approach a girl they don't know and ask her out. You are just noticing it more. If you go to a club that'd help, but the guy would probably be looking for a drunk one night stand. ... (read in full...)

I don't feel like I'm loved by my boyfriend and he always puts his mom first!

Q.   My boyfriend and I have more issues than I can count. We are in our late 20s, been together 3+ yrs, and live together. Issue #1, he is a mamas boy. Whatever mom wants, he does. He goes above and beyond son duties. He gives her just as much, if not ...

A.   10 October 2013: What is there to save? Why are you holding on to and trying to fix a relationship that makes you miserable? It's one thing if there is an issue you're trying to fix. In this case, there is absolutely nothing you could say or do that would ca... (read in full...)

Help I have pushed him away

Q.   Help I am ruining my relationship! Okay my boyfriend is sweet and caring. All he thought about was me. Wanted to spend time with me. Always texting me. Holding me tight in bed. Was so good. But I became a nag constant. Always horrible. Never ...

A.   9 October 2013: Why don't you do as he asked and give it time? The "happy, cute texts" are forced and he knows that. Show him you changed by not nagging him for answers, not crying about it just to get a reaction from him, etc. Everything you're doing would dr... (read in full...)

I'm afraid he won't accept me because of herpes

Q.   I have herpes type 2. I get one bump, and thats it. Every now and again. Anyway, Im planning on going on a date with a man ive been talking to for 6 months, in a week. I know we are headed in a serious direction. He has a messed up past, being an ex ...

A.   9 October 2013: Herpes is very common, and prior to drug companies deciding to market it as a virus that you should be embarrassed by, it was just considered a normal, no big deal thing. So, maybe you should figure out a good way to tell him ahead of time and... (read in full...)

First boyfriend and first time in love... but he changed and stopped courting me after we had sex. What should I do?

Q.   Hi guys! I'd like to ask for an advice. I am turning 29 and have my first bf. He's my co worker. After a week of being bf and gf, we had sex. He was the same man I wrote last september. I felt cheap when I gave myself to him. I only go with the flow ...

A.   9 October 2013: It may be tempting to go out with him again, but he'll only do the same thing to you. It's just that you hurt his ego by dumping him so he wants to prove that he could get you back. Don't fall for it... You'll be right back where you started. ... (read in full...)

My ex now works in my workplace, I want to ask her on a date to see if things can click again!

Q.   Around 2 and a half months ago I broke up with my girlfriend. To be more precise she broke up with me. We dated for around 4 months and it was a good relationship; she would tell me during it that she loved me and I told her the same back. It w...

A.   8 October 2013: You might be in for a rude awakening... She broke up with you for a reason, specifically because you cared more about her than she cared about you (aka moved to fast). Combine that with the probability that you embarrassed yourself when she broke up ... (read in full...)

Cyber sex gone wrong!!

Q.   dear users recently i made the stupid mistake of delving into the cyber sex cam world on skype. i had been talking to this girl for a while and it kind of got to what youd call online friends with benefits we ended up camming, and im sure yo...

A.   8 October 2013: If you've made it so she can't see your friends list on Facebook then you probably have nothing to worry about. Most likely she's just a crazy b-word. It may end up on the Internet, but unless you have some identifying tattoos or something nobody ... (read in full...)

I've went into a major depression after seeing my ex

Q.   I ran into my ex for the first time in 2 months. I haven't contacted her, nor have I text her or check her FB. I saw her at a festival; and she came over to me. I gave her a hug and asked her about work, then I walked away. The fact that I saw ...

A.   8 October 2013: I'd stop wondering if she and you have a future or if she still likes you, thinks about you, etc. Also, you need to realize that the end of your relationship was brought on by a lack of compatibility, not because there is something wrong with you. ... (read in full...)

A.   8 October 2013: Sounds like he's addicted to porn, why don't you talk to him about it? Make sure he understands that this is very important to you and he needs to find a solution if you're to be happy with him. ... (read in full...)

Q.   So basically I'm gonna try to make this short . I had a baby 10 months ago, I was 17 . The father of the baby he seemed to change (started being responsible, save money for our life together..etc) Now, everythings messed up again he's slightly...

A.   8 October 2013: If you're Breast feeding, wearing condoms and took a pregnancy test and it came up negative, then the odds are you're not pregnant. Breast feeding is a natural birth control. It also makes your period unreliable. This is what I recommend. I'm sure... (read in full...)

Is it wrong that I only want to be with an uncircumcised man?

Q.   I know that this is a pretty touchy subject for some people, so I'm hoping that my question doesn't upset anyone. I'm 23 and I have had sex with one person--my ex-boyfriend, who I dated for a year and broke up with a few months ago. Our sex lif...

A.   8 October 2013: Everyone has their preferences, but I have to say, would it really cause you to dump a great guy? I don't know about the sexual pros and cons, but I'm sure there are uncircumcised guys who would leave you unsatisfied in bed. By the way I live in ... (read in full...)

A.   8 October 2013: ANYTHING can happen. That doesn't mean you should wait for it. He left you, most likely, because he thought you were incompatible, it didn't have anything to do with the grass being greener since he started dating her two months later. He ma... (read in full...)

Dazed and confused ...girlfriend versus ex wife and children.

Q.   I am not sure what to do... My girlfriend have been fighting a lot lately. I have an ex-wife and 2 children with her, we communicate on a semi-regular basis (my ex wife) about the kids, their grades, behavior or events. Sometime we have small ta...

A.   8 October 2013: I don't really understand your story, but it's irrelevant to my advice. You don't have to dump her yet, you need to give her an ultimatum: either knock it off or your gone. The next time she yells about you spending time with your kids or talki... (read in full...)

Is it bad that I would date someone with HIV if I really cared about them?

Q.   Is it bad that I would date someone with HIV if I really cared about them? Am I stupid for this? I am HIV-. Thanks in advance....

A.   8 October 2013: Let's just say that if my wife found out she had HIV I wouldn't divorce her. But had she told me early on in our relationship I wouldn't have dated her. The honest truth is that there is a million women out there (actually 3.5 billion). Why woul... (read in full...)

A.   8 October 2013: You're asking if offering to loan her a book is too pushy? I'm going to take a guess and say that you don't date a lot. The reason I say that is because if you think that might be too pushy, what would you say asking a girl out on a date is? Rape? ... (read in full...)

A.   7 October 2013: I don't see the point. You admit that things were different then (if they weren't then it may be worth bringing up). It would only create an argument. ... (read in full...)

A.   7 October 2013: What you're describing doesn't seem like true love to me, I'm guessing that you're hurt more because of the breakup and abortion than losing this guy. Getting dumped can hurt you in many ways, and it can make you feel like you'd do anything... (read in full...)

Q.   My boyfriend deletes all the texts from other girls. Well he knows that I am jealous and I have confronted him for flirting with his colleague and knows that I sometimes go through his phone. (Please don't judge). Now he deletes all the texts with ...

A.   7 October 2013: It's impossible to say, but I'd guess he doesn't want an argument so he deletes them. How can you ask not to be judged when it's likely that you are creating the problem you're asking for advice about? Stop treating him like he's guilty and he m... (read in full...)

Need ideas on birthday present for boyfriend of 2 months.

Q.   Hey! So I'd like some advice. I've been with my boyfriend for 2 months now and it's his 21st birthday next month and I don't know what to get him. We haven't been together long so I wasn't going to make a deal and get him something ridiculo...

A.   6 October 2013: If he's a decent guy, it really is the thought that counts, so the cookie is a good idea in that department. I don't think a movie ticket would be any different than giving him 20$, but tickets to a play would make a different date night for the two ... (read in full...)

A.   4 October 2013: Make sure you have been tested for STDs, you owe him that, but nothing else. He can fall for who you are, not what you've been through. Don't lie, but don't bring it up either. As your relationship progresses you can choose whether or not you tell ... (read in full...)
