I Fall Too Quickly
Oct 2, 2011
Patience
Hi Dr. Love, As soon as I meet a man who I find to be compatible with me, I fall quickly. I mean thinking "he's the one!" almost immediately! I also am very authentic so I say what I want and how I feel. I think this scares guys off after about 2 dates I quit hearing from them? If I do nothing and ignore texts, phone calls, etc. they keep calling and texting! What's the deal? I am not into playing games, i'm 32 years old and ready to settle down again! In need of some advice, am I scaring these fab guys off?

He Wants to Be Friends
Mar 26, 2007
Patience
I have been a relationship with a man for the last 11 months everything has been real good and I mean real good. All of a sudden he tells me that we need to slow things down and not see each other as much. My family and his spent the holidays together, or birthdays. I think that he is scared of the closeness that we have now. He says that we need to be just friends, I don't know if I can just be friends with him because I'm in love with him, want to be with him as a couple not as his friend. Do you think I should stay or leave him alone. I really love this man I have never felt this way...

She Says You're too Serious
Oct 17, 2005
Patience
I really like this girl a lot from the moment I met her and this past summer we had fun and a lot of sex mixed into my feelings. But I like her for both. But there is one problem she is in college away and I am done with college. We are 800 miles away from each other, plus she is going to Spain this spring and we miss each other. But that is all we have. We always talk about our feelings for each other and she says mine are too serious. I don't know any more about anything other than I really like her a lot. Please help me out with things.

Devastated

Hi there Dr. Turndorf, just wanting your advice on a subject that has been affecting me for a long time. I'll try to make it brief. I am recently divorced as of July/04. I divorced my ex-husband because he did not want to have a family after 11 years of marriage. Afterwards, he suffered a heart attack and sort of placed the blame on me. I filed for divorce back in 2002 and I ended up having an affair with one of his friends. I know what I did was very wrong, but I didn't think of it at the time. I began dating this friend of my ex-husband and he wanted all of the same things I did and we...

Dear Dr. Love. . . I have a girlfriend of about a year and we get along really well. . . but theres just one problem. She keeps complaining that she feels lonely and gets extremely irritated when she calls and i'm in the middle of some activity i know its not right and ive tried telling her nicely so but she won't listen. she gets into bouts of crying and depression and she will accuse me of neglecting her, or ill-treating her. . . i'm at my wits end and my patience i fear is wearing thin, what can i do?

How to Give Her Space without Exploiting Yourself

Dear Dr. Love, Hi, my name is Michael, I'm 25 years old and have been in my current relationship for a little over 3 months. My girlfriend is great, I really enjoy being with her and feel that I have much more in common with her than other girls I have dated-- and I feel confident that she feels the same way about me. But here is the problem. . . we are coming from two very different 'places'. She is 21 and a senior in college, but this age difference has not been a problem for us since she is not a typical college 'party girl' (I don't think I would date her if she was), and she is very...
