A.   24 March 2011: I'm going to go with a different perspective, only because I myself have done something quite similar to your husband. I had been dating my boyfriend for about a year when I met a man who turned my head. What ensued was a two month emotiona... (read in full...)

A.   28 June 2010: The best advice I can give you is to accept it gracefully and walk away. I am not saying this wont hurt but it will mean you keep your dignity. If he wants a relationship he will change his mind with space to miss you. If he doesn't want a ... (read in full...)

Why do I feel like I'm settling?

Q.   Why is it when we're in a happy relationship we still question, is there any one better out there for us? We get the feeling that we're settling. Which is all well and good but what if we throw away what we had and end up with nothing. Is this the ...

A.   28 June 2010: I think you have just met one of the big hurdles in any relationship. The way to move past it is a simple case of applying examples. The feeling that one is settling can be argued in two ways, it can be argued as evidence that the relation... (read in full...)

A.   28 June 2010: thank you for all your replies!! I have not heard a peep out of him still but I am comforting myself with the thought that he was nearly a decade older than me and that he is certainly immature if he can't reject me in a polite manner. I at leas... (read in full...)

A.   20 May 2010: From a female perspective there are two answers here, as I don't know this girl I will give you both as honestly as possible. I will tell you now though that either outcome means that she still cares for you, even if she doesn't want to be with ... (read in full...)

A.   14 May 2010: It is difficult to answer this question as you don;t divulge what he lied about. Obviously it is something very personal so lets go on a whim; If the thing he lied about directly involved you or could effect you in an immediate way it is concer... (read in full...)

Clingy or having healthy emotional needs?

Q.   How do you determine if a girlfriend is being "clingly" or is just having healthy emotional needs? Where do you draw the line?...

A.   14 May 2010: It is difficult to draw the line as this can only be drawn by you. We are all shaped by previous relationships and sometimes people start a fresh relationship with the same patterns of their last. This could mean that your girlfriends previous ... (read in full...)
