I've gone through quite a few relationships! Some were great and some were down right terrible!
I really enjoy trying to help people get through relationship woes. Sometimes they can be life consuming and everyone can use a little help from time-to-time.

What is your experience of love?
Q. Just some general thoughts and wondering how other people see things. I'm 28 years old, had a few relationships but seemingly haven't found the 'one' yet. This makes me ask myself whether i'm too demanding of what a relationship should be. The t...
A. 12 July 2009: Nobody is perfect and relationships do take work; however, I think you should be able to effortlessly love someone. It depends on what you thought wasn't perfect, were they little things that really shouldn't have mattered, or were they things that ... (read in full...)

A. 12 July 2009: I don't think you were raped but I think he did take advantage of you, but it is statutory rape. So your parents have every right to press charges. He's an adult, he shouldn't be having sex with 16 year olds and he needs to be taught a lesson.

He said "I guess I could call you every day but I really don't want to!"
Q. I can't believe my boyfriend just told me that he is 'JUST NOT THAT KIND OF PERSON WHO WOULD CALL HIS GIRLFRIEND EVERY DAY!' He would felt like he is reporting to me if he has to, it's not necessary and why would he? After a while, a big discussion. ...
A. 11 July 2009: Yes, as your boyfriend he should want to. You shouldn't have to "force" him and he shouldn't feel like it's a chore to talk to you. I really don't think this relationship will last or that you'll be very happy in the long run. ... (read in full...)
Am I wrong for saying no one time?
Q. Can someone please tell me what I've done wrong. My boyfriend doesn't come around me or talk to me as much as he use to. I asked him why and he says its my attitude. I don't have a clue what he's talking about because the only attitude is his. ...

He talked non stop the entire date but never mentioned a second date. Now what?
Q. I recently went out with a guy whom I'd met online. We met up after about 1 week of emailing. The date was drinks only. There were no awkward silences and we spent about 2.5 hours together. The only thing is that he talked most of the time. I ...
A. 11 July 2009: Sure, he didn't get a chance to get to know you...but you definitely got a chance to know him. Do you really even want to go out on a second date with him? He talked incessantly (about himself I'm sure) and didn't walk you to your car (which you ... (read in full...)

Q. I've been dating this guy for about 6 months now, he lives with his older brother while I live at home with my parents. He is really good when it comes to calling me everyday to tell me what he's doing. He tells me that he loves me but that he also ...
A. 11 July 2009: Yes, baby duck is right. If you spend 24/7 with him or want to, you're going to appear needy to him. Men like women that can be independent and not dependent on them to make them happy. I think you should make plans with your friends and family ... (read in full...)

A. 11 July 2009: Personally, I think anybody with blood relation that you are aware of is a no-no. I wouldn't even think romantically about someone I was related to. In some states here I think it's legal to marry your second cousin; regardless I wouldn't ever ... (read in full...)

A. 11 July 2009: Sorry, honey. But no. He texted to you a month later after seeing you had a boyfriend because he was jealous. Then when you told him you didn't have him anymore, he stopped because he's immature and likes to play games. He's obviously not into ... (read in full...)

Q. I went out with a guy this past Sunday. Tonight he asked me if I wanted to go to this place tomorrow with him in the day time, but I can't because I have to work. So I texted him something like "stuck at work till 8..would definately go with you ...
A. 11 July 2009: Yes, that was a good answer to give him. If you just said, "no, have to work" then that might put him off. But adding in that you would "definitely go another time" would let him know that you're interested in seeing him, you just can't on that ... (read in full...)

Q. I don't like porn. Is that so wrong? I've read many questions about porn, and the responses are always something like "Get over it, it's just a video, porn is great, watch it with him, grow up, all men do it...". But I don't like it. I've watched...
A. 11 July 2009: There's nothing wrong with disliking it, but it's just something you have to accept. However, I do think someone can change their insecurities, that's just something you have to figure out for yourself.

Condom discomfort
Q. I've been married about 3 years and my wife and I were each other's first and we have always had natural, naked genital sex. Now she has a medical problem (nothing real serious) and has to go off birth control pills and stay away from other things ...
A. 11 July 2009: Like others said, try different condoms. If you are still having pain, then see what your wife can do. There are female condoms and she could even get fitted for a diaphragm and use it in conjunction with spermicide.

Are blow jobs now an expected part of making out?
Q. I read recently that kids as young as 11 and 12 no longer "make out" by just kissing, hugging and caressing, but that many boys also expect their girlfriends to give them blow jobs. In other words, oral sex among the young is getting to be pretty ...
A. 10 July 2009: 11 or 12?!? Holy...I don't think I even knew what oral sex was back then and that was only like 13 years ago! I think once I got into junior high, around 8th grade--that's when I started hearing those stories. So I didn't hear about anybody doing ... (read in full...)

A. 9 July 2009: NO! One day doesn't mean that you're over. Even a few days probably doesn't. Sometimes people need their space...which means that they simply don't want to talk or hang out for a day or a few days. If it turns into weeks with absolutely nothing, ... (read in full...)

A. 9 July 2009: Think about how much better you're going to be when you're out of this relationship. Your boyfriend has totally degraded you and you actually believe the idiotic things he has said to you. You have to know that it isn't true. You're a beautiful ... (read in full...)

A. 5 July 2009: NO! Actually, I feel the same way you do pretty much 95% of the time. However, I look at my parents. To me, that is true love. So I know it exists. They have their disagreements, but the way my dad treats my mother and vice versa, I know it ... (read in full...)

A. 4 July 2009: You're probably not pregnant. But they have these things at the drugstore and even the grocery store...or even WalMart or Target! It's a stick that you pee on and it tells you if you are or aren't pregnant. I think they're called pregnancy tests? ... (read in full...)
