A.   23 May 2008: It is very normal, and most guys, especially at his age watch porn. It has nothing to do with you or your relationship, although I understand why you would feel that way as most women do. And it certainly doesn't mean he is bored with you or ... (read in full...)

A.   22 May 2008: I think that for right now you should respect his decision to stay at home with his dad. You've only been dating for a year so why the rush? It is a sticky situation, but if you push him into leaving his father to move in with you, he will end up ... (read in full...)

A.   22 May 2008: I don't think I would tell him anything just yet. You are right.....you may freak him out. If he really likes you, he will not hook up with anyone else. You've got to trust him until he gives you a reason not to. He seems to like you very much ... (read in full...)

We've been together for more than 10 years but I'm determined not to forgive his infidelity, what do you think?

Q.   I found out my husband had an affair a year and a half ago. The only reason it's over now is because the other woman ended it. The whole thing lasted about a month. He was angry that she hurt him, not sure if he tried to win her back or anyt...

A.   18 May 2008: I would definitely not forgive him either. Not only did he have an affair but he had the nerve to talk to his friends about how great the sex was and how hurt he was that she ended it with him. I don't think that he will ever change and will ... (read in full...)

A.   12 May 2008: His comments really don't make sense to me being that he knows you have a son. I don't see how his comments are true because he is with you. But whatever happens your son comes first!! The right guy for you will accept your son and love him too. ... (read in full...)

Should I end my friendship with my ex to make my boyfriend feel more secure in our relationship?

Q.   I married my high school sweetheart before he deployed to Iraq. Predictably, our young age and the effects of him being at war destroyed our marriage. We ended up divorcing in 2006. Despite that, we still remain best friends. Now I'm a new relation...

A.   12 May 2008: I also don't understand how anyone can be friends with an ex. How would you feel if your boyfriend was still friends with his ex? It would definitely cause some issues there, so put the shoe on the other foot. I don't think that there are many ... (read in full...)

A.   12 May 2008: He is masturbating and probably nothing more than that. Men cannot go that long without releasing tension, etc. I wouldn't worry about it at all. He probably didn't think before he made that comment, but is too embarrassed to tell you that he ... (read in full...)

A.   6 May 2008: I don't think that you should obsess over this. He shouldn't have said what he said, but he meant well. He is young and probably didn't even realize that what he said could be taken to heart by you. I would be very happy if my husband told me ... (read in full...)

A.   6 May 2008: Maybe your being quiet and shy has something to do with it. People must perceive you to be stuck up or something like that, when in fact you just happen to be quiet. I too am very shy and quiet and in fact, my own family members perceived me to be ... (read in full...)

A.   5 May 2008: I think that what he is saying is that he is breaking all ties with you but blaming himself to avoid hurting you. I am with my husband 14 years and could never be friends with him if we broke up. I don't think that is possible for anyone. Don't ... (read in full...)
