“I Started a Facebook Family Fued”

My brother-in-law and his girlfriend are a challenging couple for various reasons, but because I think family is really important, I’ve always made a huge effort to try and be close to them. For example, I’ve helped his girlfriend when she needed to find a nursing home for her father, I helped her find and then drive her to a bakery when she was new to the area and having a party for her son, and have offered my father’s legal counsel when she’s been dealing with issues regarding her son’s father. Recently, however, my brother-in-law and his girlfriend got into a huge fight and were on the verge of breaking up….

Your Turn: “He Wants to Marry Me, But He’s Moving In With His Girlfriend”

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 met a guy online, about three years ago. Originally, I stopped talking to him because he crossed a line that I do not cross with friends. We talked it over and became really good friends.

I was at the time breaking up with my ex for the last time and…

“I’m Torn Between Two Guys”

While I have never cheated on Chris and never would, there is another man in my life. I have known “Jack” since I was 15 and he was in his early/mid 20s. When I was 16, after a few months of platonic friendship,…

“My Friend Won’t Tell her New Guy about her STI”

I have a good friend who just started dating this guy. He has a good job and they seem to really like one another. Although they aren’t “official” yet, they are exclusively seeing one another. After her last relationship ended, my friend was diagnosed with an STI that she got from her ex-boyfriend. This STI has no cure and can easily be spread. When she and I were talking about her current guy, I asked if she had told him about her STI. She said no, and when I asked if she was going to, she also said no! She said she will be using condoms all the time and there is…
