First off, I apologize that this is quite lengthy, but I want to explain as best as I can, so if you would be so kind as to read it and share any thoughts, that would be wonderful. Thank you in advance for any help you can give.
I am an eighteen year old who has been in a releationship for the past two years. My parents don't like the guy. However, I was madly in love until a few months ago when every thing changed. I heard he was HIV positive and had many women but he claimed it's not true. To compound the issue he never has time for me and I'm fed up with this guy. He doesn't give me any thing anymore.
As of Dec. 13th 2009 I have been in contact with the love of my life. There's just one small complication, I met him on a chat site.
We had both logged on because we were bored and we talked for hours before we finally gave out our email/IM addresses. That first night we stayed up until 7 am. I have never felt so connected to another person.
I have been talking to and hanging out with this girl for 3 weeks and we are just friends. When we first met we started kissing and had sex. She thought she had feelings for me but then decided that she does not and now just wants to be friends. I have feelings for her and am trying to be a good friend to her. How can I make her see that I am the guy for her.
I have been dating this girl for about 5 months now and love her very much. She says she loves me too, and I am sure of that. The problem is, she wants to be friends with her ex. He was abusive to her and cheated on her multiple
Dear Dr. Love, I'm at a crossroads right now, and I don't know what to do. I'm 17 years old, and I've been secretly admiring my best friend for 3 years now. I did find the guts to tell him in the beginning, but he didn't like me and we never spoke about it again. We just got back to best friends.
Hey Doc, I am a 29 year old male with no kids who is and has been interested in a 28 year old female with four kids. We started flirting around September 2009 but it never really went past friendship.
I am 21 years old and currently enlisted in the US navy. I recently befriended a girl I went to high school with who is 21 as well. We kicked it off pretty well I guess. I began to experience very strong emotions for her about a week or so into the relationship. I am Christian/Methodist with a very open mind, and she is atheist.
