A.   5 April 2013: With all due respect you probably need to get your sh!t together before you start dating. You barely know the guy and you're already doing weird things because of your insecurity. Also what makes you think that him not replying is a response... (read in full...)

What actions should I take to protect myself from this demanding girl who's behaviour concerns me?

A.   5 April 2013: I think you're being a little dramatic here. If it was too much for him he is free to leave. But breaking up with someone because you think dating you is too much work isn't really fair to the other person, especially if you love each other. ... (read in full...)

A.   4 April 2013: Nobody here can tell you if you should be worried. It could have been a perfectly innocent conversation, it also could have been a little flirtatious. Has your boyfriend given you any reason to not trust him? Because you're treating him as if he... (read in full...)
