Am I being paranoid or is my husband a cheater?
Q. I have been married for over 25 years, but am currently separated from my husband due to various issues. One of the issues is suspected cheating, which my husband denies. I just wanted to hear other peoples perspective on this, as my husbands...
A. 18 June 2016: OP,
It seems to me whether he is cheating or not is irrelevant, the marriage in no longer healthy nor sustainable.

How can I get over the fear of never finding the "one"?
Q. How can I get over the fear of never finding the one? For the last 29 years (im turning 30) all I have focused on was finding a man. I've tried everything - I've lost weight - fixed my appearance- kept up with my degrees- but still I find myself i...
A. 17 June 2016: I think the answer is two-fold.

Why is porn condemned by women?

A. 17 June 2016: It's definitely not the "worst" sin a man can commit in a relationship, but for some it's unacceptable. They don't view porn themselves and don't see the "need" for it.
For some it's out of personal, political and ethical issues that they find it ... (read in full...)
