I’m a 33-year-old woman and my boyfriend is 24 years old. We have been together three months so far. He’s a Scorpio and I’m a Capricorn. He wants to have a baby with me. He has two kids from a previous relationship. I don’t have any kids yet. What do I do? — Cautious Cap
I am almost 32 and have been dating a great guy for about five months. We have a wonderful relationship, I love him, he loves me, and we are supportive of one another. I see a future with him, but sometimes I freak out. It is so overwhelming — this feeling of love. I want things to work out so badly that I get anxious sometimes. I’m pretty good at not showing him this, but sometimes it leaks out and he is always so reassuring. When you were dating your husband, Drew, did you experience this? That you feel you have met the right person and you get so nervous thinking what…
“I want to live with my boyfriend before we got married, but his mother has said that none of her children will be leaving the home before marriage.”

In a feature I call “Your Turn,” in which you, the readers, get to answer the question, I’m presenting the following letter without commentary from me: I’ve been friends with this guy for six years now, and we’ve had quite the tumultuous relationship. In the first two years of our…
Even though I met “Brian” years ago, as our teen girls are best friends, we never really interacted until about eight months ago and we’ve been dating ever since. He’s been single for almost two years and has four children from two different women. His most recent ex, whom he has a 3-year-old with, does not want me around his daughter yet. This is understandable, but I am currently living with him so it’s difficult to avoid his daughter. He does not agree with his ex about keeping me away from their child, but he’s scared of her psychotic eruptions and goes along with it. I have met the rest of his…
I met this guy off a dating site about two months ago. He’s 25 and I’m 29. Right off the bat, he said he didn’t want anything serious because he travels a lot for work and never knows how long he will be in one place. However, his company is based where I live so he has an apartment by me and said that I could stay there since he is hardly there. After hanging out with him two days, I asked him to go to Atlanta with me for a job interview. He said yes. We had sex for the first time the second day there, five days after we initially…
I’m 29 and my boyfriend is 42. We were sweet and loving with each other until recently when he experiences a series of setbacks, including a demotion at work and his car not functioning well, which caused him a lot of unhappiness and has led to a lack of intimacy between us. I’m impatient and got a little upset with his withdrawal from me and started punishing him by abandoning him and planning my own activities instead of inviting him along (as whenever I invited him for an activity, he would be too lazy to join). Now, I feel disconnected from him. After a year of this now he, too, is finally…
In a feature I call “Your Turn,” in which you, the readers, get to answer the question, I’m presenting the following letter without commentary from me: I’ve been dating “S” for about four months and I’m really enjoying our time together. When we met, he fell hard and fast and I think my feelings escalated quicker than usual because I knew how into me he was. He’s extremely sweet and caring and genuinely a good person. He makes me feel so special and beautiful. A couple months before we started dating, though, he ended a long relationship (like 6 years) because his ex cheated on him. He said he had a rough…
I have been with my boyfriend almost two years now and just got recently engaged. Between us we have three children. My two girls live with us and his son lives out of state. Our family life is almost perfect and we get along great for the most part. Blending our families has almost been the easiest part. Our children get along well with each other. The one huge problem we do have though is money. I make quite a bit more money then he does. Currently, he is in school in the medical field and will not be done with his degree for another 18 months. In the meantime, he works…
In a feature I call “Your Turn,” in which you, the readers, get to answer the question, I’m presenting the following letter without commentary from me: I have a boyfriend of five months who loves me so much. I feel guilty about the couple of times I cheated on him and can’t forgive myself. This past week, we took a break because I couldn’t bear the guilt anymore, knowing that he’s faithful while I was being such a horrible girlfriend. Last week, I told him that I don’t deserve him and that he’s too attached. He didn’t want to leave my house and it was hurting him so bad knowing I was…
