Dearest Dr. Turndorf, I hope that you are doing well and that you are in good health. Thank you kindly for all the help that you provide to those who are in need. It is deeply appreciated. Please help me. I need to ask you questions that I desperately need answers for. My name is Lara, I hope that you remember me. . . My father was very abusive verbally, psychologically and physically with my mother and my brother and sisters. He traumatized us and I fear that the damage is permanent and will destroy my whole family. I managed to leave the house and find help for myself. I take...

Is Anything Wrong with Me or Him
May 2, 2005
Sibling Issues
Hi Dr. Love, I love your responses to the columns and I wish there were more persons like you who would do this type of job as good as you do.don't know where to start since this is really hard for me. Let me start from the beginning. My boyfriend and I had been together for 2 1/2 years of dating when he broke up with me in 2000. I was hurt because he was my first and only guy whom I had ever had sexual relations with. He didn't have a good reason for the break up. We just had an argument as usual. I assume we would get back together, but after a week I gave up since we never broke up for...

A Friend Who Judges Me

Sibling Issues
Dearest Dr. Love, I truly hope that you are well and happy. You deserve it. You touch so many with your advice and your kind words. Thank you kindly. I would be grateful if you could please help me. . . I feel very confused, hurt and betrayed. I have been friends with a young man ever since I was 15 years old (I am now 24) and he is someone I truly care about, like a brother. I thought I could confide in him and that he would support me and try to understand whatever decisions I make. Unfortunately, I was wrong. . . I told him that I have been in a relationship with a married man for about...

Friend or Girlfriend
Mar 14, 2005
Sibling Issues
Ok, I'm 16 and a guy. I'm in love with my best friend (she's a girl). I love her so much. I think about her everyday. We wanted to date a few years ago but she is best friends with my sister too. We didn't want to hurt my sis, so we never dated. A few years later, I'm still in love with her. I go to a small school, so there is no girl to 'get my mind off of her. ' I love her. She has talked to and dated a few other guys and I'm always jealous. I want to be friends but I don't know if I can. I love her but she just wants to be friends now. I don't know if I can just be friends...

He Wants to Sleep with Your Sister
Jan 7, 2003
Sibling Issues
Dr.Love, I've been with my partner for 6 years (common-law) and then about 4 months ago he told me he likes my sister. He says it's all mens fantasies to be with two sisters. I don't believe him. To me that's sick. He says he doesn't want to be with her as a couple but just to check her out in bed. I was so distraught on hearing that. Meanwhile he bad mouths her on her life and everything. I think he is physically attracted to her and wants to be with her. I found a reminder on his computer about his birthday (I think I wasn't supposed to see it) that said 'Plan my birthday and make...

In Love With Your Brother 's Best Friend
Jul 29, 2002
Sibling Issues
Dear Dr. Love, Well, my issue of concern is how i go about handling my strong feelings for this guy. Normally i am an up front person but in the case i can't be. The reason is that the guy that i have feelings for is one of my older (only by 18 months) brother 's best friends. And my brother is also one of my best friends, and i am extremely in love with this guy. Its hard because he is over all the time, don't get me wrong i love it when he's around, but i still always wonder if anything could happen. He's one of the most genuine, wonderful, funny, and kind people i have ever met. And when...

In Love

Sibling Issues
Dear Dr. Love, I am completely in love with a dear friend of mine. We have some much in common, that it is unbelievable. No one knows how I feel about him. At times I wish I could tell everyone including my dear sister who is also good friends with him, and not to mention that she is trying to fix him up with some of her single friends. Everytime I hear her say that he would make a good couple with 'so and so'. . . it just hurts so bad. I haven't worked up the nerve to tell him how I feel due to the fact that I don't want to ruin what is already there(a great friendship). He is...

Woman Who Was Raped by Her Sister's Boyfriend
May 22, 2000
Sibling Issues
Hi Dr. Turndorf! A month ago I was raped by my sister's boyfriend. My boyfriend of 3 years seemed to be handling it ok, and I was coping. However, we have begun having many problems since then: he wants me to open up and talk to him, but when I do, he gets angry. And then he interperets my silence as being angry at him. He doesn't understand my feelings of guilt and told me that I must really like being the victim because I refuse to move on with my life. He tries to listen, but he can't handle my messed up emotions. I have become a hermit in my house, only going out when...
