I feel I have made enough mistakes in my life to hopefully help people when they get into a similar situation. This site is fantastic just for getting your feelings off your chest and to get some advice from people who wont judge you, I really enjoy just being a part of this and helping in any way I can!
I will happily admit that I dont have vast amounts of wisdom on marriage, bereavement and many other topics but I would never respond to a question where I feel I dont have enough personal experience to help in any way.
I hope you find some hope and meaning in my advice but always remember, do what feels right to you in your heart, not what someone tells you to do on here. We are only here to help, the hard bit is for you to make the decision yourself! |

A. 2 December 2009: Well to be honest the police wouldnt be taking this seriously if they didnt find anything on his computer. So if she never sent a picture then technically he wouldnt have anything incriminating on his computer? So judging by the fact that the police ... (read in full...)

A. 2 December 2009: It sounds like she is drip-feeding you elements of the story, maybe in a few months time you will actually get the full truthful version. I cant really say if she cheated on you, fooled around with him, or just slept next to him - there is no real ... (read in full...)

I am on the pill, but have questions about it
Q. What is the likelyhood of the pill stopping your period? I'm on Cerazette, which is a 28 day pill and I'm just at the end of my 3rd month (i've been on 2 different pills before this though). Ever since I first started taking the pill back in April, ...
A. 1 December 2009: I think it is possible for the 28 day pill to stop your periods and if you have taken a few pregnancy tests then I think you can be pretty sure you are not pregnant.
But to put your mind at ease I think it will be best to see a different doctor a... (read in full...)

Q. i would like to know the chances of getting pregnant if the male has had a std for more then 2 months. i dont know all the details because i am doing this for my friend. but i would also like to know how do you know if you are allergic to a condom?...
A. 30 November 2009: STD's in a male very rarely affect their fertility - it is generally only STD's in a female (like Chlamydia) will affect fertility, but even then you need to have had that STD for quite some time before it really affects you.

He has a girlfriend but wants me
Q. So I've liked this guy for a while but he's had a girlfriend as long as I've known him. I noticed he's been flirting with me somewhat since we first met but I assumed it was just his personality. Recently though, he's been asking me to kiss him and ...
A. 30 November 2009: To put it simply - if this guy was interested in you for more than just sex he would have left his girlfriend and would be trying to date you - not just pestering you for sex!

A. 23 November 2009: If you have tried to encourage him to lose weight with no such luck then I think you need to lay it down on the line with him - you have to make him realise how serious this situation is!
