My LDR seems sweet and gentle. I'm a virgin. Last night I found out he's into sadistic/masochistic sex. How do I deal with this?

Q.   I'm going to try and keep this as brief as possible. Last night I learned that my long-distance boyfriend is into sadistic/masochistic sex. I'm really surprised, because he's a really sweet and gentle guy. I'm a virgin, with zero sexual activit...

A.   22 December 2012: I'm not going to say break up with him because that's not what you asked. You should just remember that it's pretty common and it doesn't mean he's screwed up or anything, so I'd try not to judge him too much if you really want to be with him. T... (read in full...)

I'm second guessing my decision to leave my cheating husband

Q.   Hi. I've just separated after being with this guy since I was a teenager. Now in my 30s with 2 kids he's all I ever knew. He claimed cheated on me and when i said im leaving, he claimed to be gutted, said he was seeing a counsellor, and taking a...

A.   21 December 2012: Stay away, it's always going to be difficult but you'll be okay. Tell him that if he loves you he needs to do EVERYTHING in his power to change. Counselling, meds, whatever. If, down the line, you feel like he's changed and you still miss him (... (read in full...)

A.   21 December 2012: It may be more than your relationship, it could be his depression. I'd recommend doing exactly what you suggested, BUT, you have to be prepared for the possibility that this is the end of your relationship otherwise it won't matter. If you say "cal... (read in full...)

A.   21 December 2012: Don't forget that new relationships have an unfair advantage over familiar ones. You don't know the new guy, so everything he does seems great. Your boyfriend is well known to you and can seem boring. If your boyfriend is a good guy, treats y... (read in full...)

My inability to orgasm is causing me to not enjoy sex with the man I love.

Q.   My boyfriend and I have been together just over a year. We love each other very much, he's my best friend, he's so caring and we are very affectionate. However, whenever we have sex.....I just don't enjoy it! I find him incredibly attractive, but ...

A.   21 December 2012: I think finding it hard to orgasm could have something to do with getting used to your vibrator. However that wouldn't explain the discomfort and you not enjoying yourself. First of all I'd recommend that you stop using a vibrator for now... (read in full...)

Q.   I have been single for years I cant seem to meet women interested in me. Women I have dated all dumped me for other people , they all say I am a "lovely guy" but they always see, to go for arrogant pretty boys who usually treat them like crap.Every ...

A.   21 December 2012: Go ahead, it won't be the end of the world. But, I think you need to start thinking about how you act towards women. A lot of guys are decent looking, intelligent and overall good guys, but they have a hard time connecting with women. Part of ... (read in full...)

This relationship feels more like a burden than something good in my life

Q.   So, my ex that i was with about 2 years ago recently started talking to me again. We were together for about 11 months until i found out that he suddenly began to have "commitment issues" and was cheating on me. Well once i found out i immediat...

A.   21 December 2012: This is a no brainer, in fact I was going answer you by quoting you, but I can see NotDoneYet beat me to it. Being nice, rejecting someone can seem difficult to do, but you can find a relatively nice way of doing it. In the end, no matter h... (read in full...)

Q.   I will start at the very beginning, my husband and I have been together since I was 13 and he was 15. We were each others one and only for a very long time. When I was 20 I cheated on him, knew it was wrong came clean within a month and it was...

A.   21 December 2012: "Am I crazy to want this to work?" It's not clear what "this" is, but I'm going to guess it's your renewed friendship. I don't see why it wouldn't work, but that's all up to you. Both her and your husband could be completely over each other bu... (read in full...)

A.   21 December 2012: The bottom line is this: you can't prevent bad things from happening to you, you can only try and do your best to limit them. That means don't date just anybody. Don't date somebody who finds sex to be more important than you. Obviously if you'r... (read in full...)

A.   21 December 2012: I don't know how old you are but if you're more toward 13 than 15 it's not uncommon for boys to be embarrassed about dating. Why? I have no idea, but I remember being that way. They may not be ready to grow up or have to explain their choices to ... (read in full...)

A.   20 December 2012: You've been with him for only 4 months and you feel like crap. It may not be his fault, but the bottom line is that there is no point in staying with someone when that's how you feel with them. Seriously, if you had said this was your husband of 4... (read in full...)

Q.   I apologize in advance if this is lengthy. I'm 22 years old. I dated a girl for three years who is the same age. We lived together for the majority of that time, however the last eight months of the relationship was very rocky. Sex was a rarity...

A.   20 December 2012: I completely agree with Fatherly Advice but I want to add that there's no point in expecting her to pay for anything. It's probably a better idea to play the lottery. She sounds manipulative, just get her out of your life and move on. Get her crap... (read in full...)

A.   20 December 2012: You're young enough that you can still be boyfriend and girlfriend in a 14 year old sense without having to really betray your parents. Obviously if you go on dates, go to his house, etc. and are lying about it you are betraying your parents trust ... (read in full...)

How do I approach girls for friendship?

Q.   I have a problem of approaching girls for friendship, please what should i do?...

A.   20 December 2012: You don't "approach girls for friendship". If you really want friendship treat them as if they were no different than a guy. Your problem is that you are over thinking it. If you want more than friendships that's a different story. ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi friends, I m a female of 30 yrs.but look short of my age. People in my office find me as of 25years only. I am unmarried, reserve by nature and professional. But sometimes my boss (who is around 37 but unmarried) calls me 'auntie'... and smil...

A.   19 December 2012: Yeah, Hawaiians often say that as well to mean someone close to the family, so It may be nothing. I don't think it sounds like he's talking down to you, it sounds more like a term of endearment in a friendly kind of way, certainly nothing to worry ... (read in full...)

Cheaters Central? Do you think my boyfriend cheated on me? Is he the cheater type?

Q.   I know the type of answers I'll get for this question. "A relationship can't work without trust". But I guess I need to know whether I'm being paranoid or rightfully concerned. In any case, here it goes: Before I met my boyfriend he had a big cru...

A.   19 December 2012: Sorry, but it sounds likely he has cheated, maybe more than once. Seen cuddling with another girl doesn't mean he slept with her but it clls his honesty and loyalty into question. As for the other girl it's just too big of a coincidence that he s... (read in full...)

A.   18 December 2012: You certainly shouldn't stay if it's going to be the same old relationship. You have to decide that you want to make things better. I don't blame her for cheating, even though it's wrong as she obviously needs affection and attention just like most ... (read in full...)

My head is telling me that I have to stay with my wife for the sake of my daughter. My heart is telling me that I have found my soul mate with another woman.

A.   18 December 2012: I think you can't possibly tell what someone is really like after a few months. Remember how you felt about your wife after a few months? Didn't last did it? You have to really figure out what's going on with your wife, try going to another coun... (read in full...)

A.   17 December 2012: You may not have very much experience with women, but most of them are easy by your definition. I think the longest I've waited for a girl is a week or so... Maybe a little bit longer, but that's the exception. I think that if there is chemistry ... (read in full...)

A.   17 December 2012: Being alone is difficult at first, but it gets easier pretty quickly and can be very good for you. By going from guy to guy you are transferring your feelings from one to another without really getting to find a guy that fits you.... (read in full...)

Q.   I am really confused about something that happened the other day. I am in love with my best friend which he didn't know about till the other day. The reason I hadn't told him was because he means the world to me and I couldn't bear to lose him as a ...

A.   17 December 2012: If what you're saying is true than it sounds like he likes/loves you but doesn't know where to take things from here. If I was you I'd ask him to come over to your house in a semi romantic way and just open up with him. Get it out there. You o... (read in full...)

A.   17 December 2012: I'd say you just have to trust him. He may be attracted to her but you can't make him feel like he's guilty for being human. I've been friends with women who I would have totally dated if I wasn't married, but I AM married so it's just not an... (read in full...)

A.   17 December 2012: Just remember that feeling fat and ugly is standard issue for women for whatever reason. I'm married to a woman who weighs 105 lbs and still thinks she's fat sometimes. Yes, men tell you what you want to hear but they are also not nearly as cr... (read in full...)

Q.   Hi, my husband and I have been together for 4 years. We recently got married and are very happy together. Before i met my husband i enjoyed my sexual freedom, meaning i had lots of experiences. He was also sexually very active before he m...

A.   17 December 2012: I was reading that there are scientists that believe this is actually a form of instinct; the reason it's a common fantasy for men is because for much of human history we were polyamorous (not monogamous) and we lived in small social groups where ... (read in full...)

A.   16 December 2012: Well, he's obviously not 100% gay, because I consider myself more or less 100% straight and I would never initiate gay sex. That being said there's no reason to think he's making this up. Honestly, he might have cheated on you with another ... (read in full...)

A.   15 December 2012: He sounds like an insecure little kid. If you haven't done anything to make him that way (cheating or being distant for real) than his attitude is completely childish. Maybe he has some mental health issues, or self esteem issues that are maki... (read in full...)
