Do I tell her I invaded her privacy and looked through her phone to get some answers?

Q.   I've been seeing this girl for 4 months now and things have been great. I knew she had an x-boyfriend, as most people do by your early 20’s, but when she spoke of him it was never that she longed for him, there was mostly resentment for the way ...

A.   7 October 2011: It sounds like for the most part she is being honest with you. The way he broke up with her... she had no sense of closure at all. If he texted her then it's her natural reaction to want to speak about what happened and why he did it and chances are ... (read in full...)

I'm terrified that I'll never fall in love again

Q.   Ever since I broke up with my ex 2 years ago I havent been able to have feelings for any other guy. I was madly in love with him and he broke my heart. I have been on many dates but when it becomes remotely serious I just back out and think I can'...

A.   7 October 2011: What this sounds like is not that you can't fall in love, it sounds like you're not letting yourself fall in love. You might not be doing this on purpose of course... but since you went through the trauma of a break up two years ago, with someone ... (read in full...)

A.   5 October 2011: Confront her. He's YOUR boyfriend and if she's spending more time with him than you are then that's really sus. You have the right to tell her to back off. And tell your boyfriend as well you don't really like how close they are... and if he chooses ... (read in full...)

How can I make him understand how much I feel for him?

Q.   I know this lad who is my ex's best friend and i've liked him ever since we split up. When I was really upset about the break-up, he always came round to see if I was okay and was there for me as a shoulder to cry on. He used to come round all of ...

A.   5 October 2011: Maybe ask him to come around again? There's no harm in being friends for a while if you miss him. And I know there's the whole don't date ex's rule, but if you like the guy there's no controlling your feelings. Ask him to come around because you ... (read in full...)

A.   5 October 2011: That's really up to you to answer in time. But from my point of view... If he hasn't broken up with her or doesn't have any plans to in the near future then don't waste so much time on him! If he stays with her and keeps getting all this love and ... (read in full...)

Help! Advice? Am I driving my daughter away? Am I being too controlling?

A.   5 October 2011: So I'm not a mother or anything but I am a daughter so maybe I could tell you a few tips about being in her mindset. Boyfriends for the most part mean the world to you and you always seek out there help for everything you can. What I'm sensing here ... (read in full...)

His little white lies bother me

Q.   Hello everyone. I have a question about men and lying. I've asked questions about this before here, and I'm trying to deal with it. I keep catching my bf tell me little white lies. In all honesty, I don't catch him lying about bigger picture ...

A.   17 September 2011: My boyfriend does the same... He lies because it's better to have a reason then to not have any. It is all about the impression thing, even if they don't see that it doesn't impress us. The bottom line is he's trying to keep you interested. Everyone ... (read in full...)

My gay best friend wants me to be his pretend girlfriend so that his parents don't get to know about his sexual orientation

Q.   Hi, I'm a 15 year old girl. One of my best friends is gay, and he asked me to be his pretend girlfriend so his parents don't get suspicious. They don't know he's gay and are very strict in their religion, which is anti-gay. My friend has a plan. ...

A.   17 September 2011: It is ethically wrong to lie on a big scale like that... But, in this situation it is entirely his decision. If he feels that he wants to have you as a fake girlfriend then okay, he just has to be ready for the consequences. He may not be able to ... (read in full...)

Sex equals love?

Q.   If a boyfriend has sex with his gf, does that means that he actually loves her a lot? They have sex only after one year in their relationship....

A.   17 September 2011: Some people see it as the next step or a big commitment they're making. Which can sometimes be very stressful for both parties. It honestly depends on the people and what their views are. If they are sharing this special moment together just because ... (read in full...)

A.   17 September 2011: The army these days are pretty flexible with communication. It honestly depends on the job that your man is doing... But don't worry you won't go for months without contact from him. The only time that would ever happen is if base is being attacked ... (read in full...)

I can't remember if he wore a condom or not, my period was very light and short, now I seem to be having pregnancy symptoms, but I can't go to the doctors on my own nor can afford a pregnancy test, help!

Q.   Hi, I'm a very confused person at the moment! I would be very happy if you would reply nicely with advice and not actually insulting, because I am only 16. A very confused one at that. So, I had sex roughly on the 28th August.. I can't remembe...

A.   17 September 2011: If you had your period after you had unprotected sex you're not pregnant. No matter how light or unusual it was. Pregnancy blood spots usually don't start that early. If you're over worrying about being pregnant then you can sometimes trick yourself ... (read in full...)

Q.   Alright, so I posted a couple of days back to get peoples opinions of whether or not I was pregnant. So a quick summary of that was - "I had sex with a boy, he had a condom, but I told him that he didn't have to wear it, and he said he would, b...

A.   17 September 2011: In all honesty, if you can't afford a pregnancy test, you can't afford a baby. Which stands to reason why you should always use a condom, as well as other contraception. ... (read in full...)
