Hi, my name is Cat and I'm 22 years old. I live in various cities in the UK since the city where I study and where my family live are different. I'm currently just out of a relationship and enjoying the single life for a while. I don't know that I am qualified to help people but I'd like to try. I've had a lot of experiences in my life and despite being quite young I'm always helping my friends with their problems. I'd like the chance to help all of you too. Feel free to private message me anytime.If you do however, please include some details of your problem as I answer a lot here and can't always remember specific problems. With big hugs, Cat xx

Q.   OK. So here's the thing. Me and my boyfriend are totally into each other and have been going out a while now. Anyway long story short, we're both ready to have sex and understand the consequences and stuff, and we're both virgins. We are both of ...

A.   13 February 2007: You're right to be wary about condoms. My parents didn't want kids and ended up with 3 using just condoms. What about the normal pill. That doesn't have the same side effects as the morning after one. Or a cap or a diaphragm or an implant? There are ... (read in full...)

I have had romantic feelings for both genders...How do I know if I'm bisexual?

Q.   I need help with something, it's been bugging me for a while. How do I know if I'm bisexual? I've never had a girlfriend and I've never had a boyfriend but I have had romantic feelings for both at one point. How do I know? and what do I do?!?!...

A.   13 February 2007: When you're young it's 100% normal to have feelings for girls and boys. One or the other usually fades away as you get older. You're just curious right now. Trust me on this and don't date for a while, just enjoy spending time with girls and guys as ... (read in full...)

A.   13 February 2007: You're grown ups now. It's not like school anymore where if your love is unrequited you can never speak again. It's a few seconds of embarassment and then things go back to the way they were and that's the worst case scenario. CD... (read in full...)

A.   13 February 2007: I don't want to tell you it's just a stage because I remember how condescending I found that at your age when I was having problems with my own mother. Believe me, throughout my teenage years she made me feel so incredibly worthless I often felt ... (read in full...)

Q.   I like a guy who likes me too, the only problem is that his best friend likes me too, so he won't act on his feelings. I feel like I'm backed into a corner, what should I do?...

A.   13 February 2007: The only thing you can do really is talk to the friend and explain that while you think he's a fantastic person you're more attracted to his friend and would he mind if you dated? If you can get his blessing then you're raring to go but if not maybe ... (read in full...)

A.   13 February 2007: Technically it's not that unusual to miss a period on the pill, especially if you're under a lot of stress at school etc. However I think taking a test is a good idea just to be on the safe side and to stop you worrying. Plus if you are pregnant the ... (read in full...)

A.   13 February 2007: It sounds like he just likes your friend better. It's nothing personal, just that he's looking for something different from what you can offer him. I don't know why your friend isn't backing off, maybe she sort of likes him, maybe she's not as ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: I wouldn't read into it as far as the fact that he may be gay. Maybe he's finally listening to you and trying to spice up your sex life. Unless you're horrendously uncomfortable with it I say do it! It might be just the kick start your sex life ... (read in full...)

Q.   Hello! Im just getting out of a 2 year relationship with someone who first started out as my best friend. Towards the end of the relationship, we even started acting just as best friends, so i feel that the in-love factor has been gone for a while....

A.   12 February 2007: It might be a rebound fling but if you feel ready there's nothing wrong with it. Rebounds are only bad when you're doing it just to stop feeling sad about someone else but if you're sure you're over your ex go for it. CD... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: There is no such thing as a totally safe time. Girls have even been known to get pregnant during their periods, although the most fertile time is 2 weeks after your period. Using condoms is a good idea but I'd go on the pill too just to be safe. ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: You can't make someone like you. If there were a magical solution to make your unrequited love fall for you then there would be no war or unhappiness in the world, trust me. All you can do is act normal around him. You're not 12 anymore so it's not ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: It's not illegal for you to have a baby together but of course you're going to face strong opposition from the family. First I think you both need to sit down and decide what you want to do. Do you want to keep it or explore other options. You could ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: It's totally normal. Whereas you guys have what turns you on hanging obviously between your legs it's a bit harder for us girls to find out what makes us feel good. Or maybe she's just too embarassed to tell you, meaning she's not ready for sex. A... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: What's great is that on paper, you sound certain that this is the right thing to do. You're not helping your fiance at all by letting yourself by influenced by his tears though. You need to be firm with him and don't let him emotionally manipulate ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: It's totally normal, especially if the guy was a virgin too because when neither of you know what ur doing it's not a recipe for successful sex. I suggest taking nights where you concentrate solely on the other person so you can learn how to make ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: To be honest I think it would be selfish. You're both with other people and you owe it to them to be faithful. Your feelings will pass. It sounds like a crush and the seven year (close enough) itch. Stick at your marriage. Your wife deserves that, ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: He;s not going to listen to anything you and Becca tell him. He needs to hear it from Beth. This is totally normal. I'm guessing in the same situation you'd prefer to hear no from the person himself rather than his friends. If Beth's unwilling to ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: If the breakdowns are all the time then it's no wonder you're getting emotionally exhausted by them. The truth is that however much you want to, you can't be the person who is there for her. It sounds like she might need professional help and you ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: I don't think she's having sex elsewhere. What I fear has happened is that because you only see her occassionally that when you do see her it's become all about the sex. Maybe she's feeling insecure you don't love her anymore. Try getting out of her ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: No I don't think they do. I think there are guys who will tell you they don't look at other girls for fear of antagonising you but I think it's natural to find lots of people attractive even when you're with someone. It doesn't mean you don't find ... (read in full...)

A.   12 February 2007: If you opened one a few weeks ago you would have had to throw it away since there was a risk of something puncturing it in the meantime. Maybe your girlfriend is carrying one in her wallet or just opened one to experiment with it in some way or gave ... (read in full...)

A.   11 February 2007: He's probably controlling you because he feels he can't trust you. You need to sit him down and explain to him that you're not going to cheat on him again so he has to stop controlling you. If he doesn't you need to have a good think. If there's no ... (read in full...)

A.   11 February 2007: Hm you could try criticising him back and see how he takes it but something tells me if he's trying to control you after two years that it does not bode well for the future. Criticism is a form of mental bullying whether that's his intention or not ... (read in full...)

A.   11 February 2007: You need to tell her as soon as possible. Otherwise she'll feel like you've been stringing her along. Break it to her as gently as possible in person. However tempting it is to not do it face to face she deserves the truth face to face. I would tell ... (read in full...)

A.   11 February 2007: In my experience any friend couples that contain a girl and a boy inevitably have a certain amount of sexual tension between them by the time they get to your age. However the only way to know if she feels the same way as you is to ask her. You're ... (read in full...)
