Your Turn: “I Wasn’t Invited to His Daughter’s Wedding”

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 been with my boyfriend for one year and a half, and have lived with him for one year. He has been separated for over nine years. His daughter, aged 26, is getting married in June, and I know for a fact that she is not inviting me to the wedding. I am very hurt over this. Don’t you think I should be invited to the wedding? — Pseudo Stepmom

“I’m Jealous of His Laptop”

I have been in a relationship with a boyfriend for about three months. I’m a very independent person currently in the final four months of my degree. I am not a needy or clingy person and find it hard to understand those who are. My boyfriend, as lovely as he is, has had his fair share of difficult woman. Anyway, here are my problems with him: 1. He hardly listens to me. I don’t talk in great quantities and when he asks me a question he reverts it back to him and then goes on about whatever obsession he has going on in his OCD brain. I don’t mind it when he…

“Is it too Soon to Start a Long Distance Relationship?”

I met a great guy about six weeks ago and we began dating, exclusively, immediately. He’s 31 and I’m 25. Just when things couldn’t be going any better, I found out he will be headed overseas in February for work. He will be gone for about six months, possibly longer. For various reasons, it would be nearly impossible for me to visit and he is not allowed to come home. It’s practically a deployment. At the time he leaves, we will have been together for four months. Is it too soon to consider having a long distance relationship? We have discussed our options already and have decided to decide together at a…

“Should I Tell Him I Had an Abortion?”

I am 23 years old and four years ago I met my now boyfriend. Although he seemed really interested in me for a couple of months, eventually things fizzled out and he told me he just wanted to be friends with benefits. We kept doing “stuff,” and even though I loved him very much, he pursued other women. About two years ago he started dating someone else and after one last night of “stuff,” stopped seeing me because he felt it wouldn’t be right to the girl he was dating. Shortly after, I found out I was pregnant, and, scared out of mind, had an abortion. He broke up with her after…

Your Turn: “When Should I Tell Guys About My Meds?”

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 recently re-entered the dating world after my last relationship ended. While I am looking forward to what prospective future boyfriends I may end up seeing, I do have one concern that I’m not sure how to handle. In my last relationship, I began seeing a therapist and taking antidepressants for an anxiety-related issue. My ex was incredibly understanding about the whole situation (which had NOTHING to do with our ultimate split, by the way); however, I am worried about how other men may respond…
