How do I turn out a guy who's not asking me out directly?
Q. Hi everyone, How do I turn down a guy who's not asking me out directly to a date? We used to be colleagues, and now I'm going to school again. The guy friended me on Facebook, we exchanged a couple of messages, and now he says that he wants to...
A. 19 October 2012: Sure, you may look weird for the next couple of minutes, but it's very important to set your boundaries early, so it's very clear, whether he has intentions or not.
Maybe someone less harsh but equally as blunt would work as well.

My wife actively discourages me forming any friendships of my own. How do I find the courage to stand up to her?
Q. My wife won't let me have any friends of my own. We've been married for about two years now, and I've always accepted that. I messed up and cheated on her early in our relationship, but she decided to keep me around, and we got married and moved on. ...
A. 19 October 2012: Thank you again, Honeypie. I hope I didn't misphrase what I said. I don't mean to say that I don't care enough to get counseling or that I think it's a waste of time. I'm just seeing if you (and others) think that it is right to do so in my ... (read in full...)

A. 18 October 2012: Thanks so much to everyone who posted. A lot of you are pretty spot on. Just to add a little bit to this, apart from that issue, we are pretty inseparable. We would both agree that we are a great fit together and this is really our only issue.

A. 18 October 2012: Tell him you don't mind chatting to him, you know there was a brief flirting in the past, but you're not interested in him physically and therefore not interested in a relationship. Guys prefer bluntness and honesty. Trying to sugarcoat things... (read in full...)
We met recently: Does he like playing me? Or is he just taking his time?
Q. Hello! So my main issue here is that I have always had a hard time reading people and their intentions. I'm also a very gullible person, unfortunately. Which makes trying to read peoples feelings that much more difficult. Now with that being sa...
A. 18 October 2012: It's hard to say. It could be many different things. Maybe he's keeping his options open, maybe he's in another semi-relationship, or maybe he's just too shy to take it to the next level. What do you mean when you say that you've made your feelin... (read in full...)

Q. I deeply and truly love this guy and we've been in a committed relationship for the past two years. However, I have realised (he realises it too, but won't admit it) that we're hopelessly incompatible. We make each other miserable but we still st...
A. 18 October 2012: You are making a very hard and courageous decision. I married a woman that I was in love with, but was also not compatible at all. We had nothing in common and disagreed on every issue imaginable. It's going to take time. The hardest part is t... (read in full...)
