How Can I Get my Family Back?
Aug 26, 2007
Health Crisis
I have been going with this girl for about 3 years of and on. This last time I lived with her for a year and a half. She has a little girl 4 years old who I'm very close to. I was with her more than anybody. We both lost our jobs about the same time, mine due to a work injury. We were stressed out and I was getting depressed. I finally got help for that but it was too late. She told me to get out and when I was in the hospital she got rid of my stuff. I still can talk to her and she talk to me just not about us. She said not to bug her so i haven't called in about 3 days. I wrote her a 20...

Does He Like Me?
Jun 4, 2007
Health Crisis
I have liked this man for over two years and I don't know if he feels the same way. Please don't feel bad of me when I explain. I am 28 and he is 62. He is a partner in the letting agency that rents my flat. He does have a partner who he has been with for over 7 years but I've heard she doesn't treat him right. She throws herself at other men and she behaved like this at the office Christmas party and this was when he was going through cancer. I have never gotten over him but I tried to by avoiding going into the office and going past there but it didn't work for long. Recently I found out...

Will I Ever Accept Myself?
Sep 26, 2004
Health Crisis
Dearest Dr. Love, I must thank you with all my heart for your precious help and for the concern you have for all those who need advice. I always read your column and I truly think that every single advice you give is brilliant and very helpful. Thank you kindly. I hope you can help me with this problem I've had probably ever since I was in my mother 's womb! It's about my very low self-esteem. . . It kills me to notice how low it is, and it saddens me every time I have negative thoughts about myself and every time I look with disgust at myself, or everytime I remind myself of how...

He's Dying and Shutting You Out
Nov 18, 2002
Health Crisis
My boyfriend is dying of cancer and may not live to see 2003. We have been dating for 6 months and are in love. As he gets sicker he is pushing me away and wont let me see him regularly. He says he doesn't want me crying over his coffin. I have begged him to not shut me out but he wont listen. I feel as though I've already lost him and it hurts so bad. How could he not want my love and support in a time like this? I dont know what to do. Should I stop trying to be with him and let him close out his life the way he wants to?

This is a Doozy
Jun 4, 2001
Health Crisis
Dear Dr. Love: I am a great fan of your advice, and I need some of your superb wisdom. This is a doozy, so hold on. I met a woman through friends last July. We had both been hurt by less than admirable partners. She had a 4 yearold, the father never married her, was controlling and not loyal to the relationship. She had moved out on her own 8 months before. We hit it off immediately and had a fantastic soul connecting relationship until Nov when her ex started with 'I've got cancer and won't see my son much longer etc etc. ' She became confused, called me out of the blue and broke it off. I...

Girl in Chronic Pain
Oct 30, 2000
Health Crisis
I am 17, I have several soft tissue diseases and the chronic pain that I have to endure everyday is tough on my boyfriend. He is empathetic, but not sure how to deal with it when I'm am pain. It is a strain on our relationship and I don't want to start feeling as if I'm a burden, like I used to when I first started having the problems. He has helped me through so much in the past year, but it is getting harder on him, I know. I crumpled up in the middle of a store the other day and then he helped me out to the car. In the car I was still in a little ball of pain and he mistook it...
