“I’m in Love with my Gay Best Friend!”

I’m in love with my gay best friend. He and I were very close and unfortunately I fell in love hard. We never messed around or anything but there was sexual tension on my behalf. We stopped talking because life got in the way and I can’t get over him. I told him I loved him and he hasn’t talked to me since. My friends think I’m crazy because I always get hit on but have no interest in other dudes. How do I move on? — In love with my Gay BFF   Maybe it’s safe for you to love your gay best friend because you know there’s no threat of…

“How Can We Make His Home Our Home?”

I moved in to my partner’s spacious apartment over a year ago. He is a sentimental collector and keeper of things (all things); he is an artist who enjoys and appreciates most everything and prefers the joy of an item leaving little interest in how a room flows or if its cohesive. He is also extremely passionate about his belongings and decor sense and takes great offense when they are not supported or understood. When the time came for us to move to a new place — one he would buy — I was thrilled because I assumed we would begin to compromise about decor. As the house hunt began we looked…

Your Turn: “My Boyfriend’s Depressed and I’m Sexually Frustrated”

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’m a 24 year-old female in my first long-term relationship. My boyfriend, also 24, is a serial monogamist who went two years without having sex prior to me and post breaking up with a girlfriend of three years. I really like sex and have always had a higher libido than him from the start, but lucky for him he’s huge and as a result I’m normally too sore to have sex more than once a week. Currently, we haven’t had sex in almost two months. I…

“Did He Just Want Me For Sex?”

I met a great guy who was in town for a grad school internship. He is from the Midwest and I am on the East Coast. For about a month and a half we had a whirlwind romance. However, I noticed he never told me much about himself, never really opened up. Now he is back in school in the Midwest and we are about 1,000 miles apart. Before he left, I told him I wanted to continue the relationship if he wanted to. He just put his head down and didn’t say anything. I asked him what airports are near him, and he told me. After he was home for a…

Your Turn: “I Sent Dirty Texts To Myself to Make Him Jealous”

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: Things have recently ended with a guy I have been seeing for about a year and some change. I feel like I may have ruined the relationship. We were dating for about two months when I decided to sleep with him, but about a month after that he told me he had a date with someone else. He told me he was just doing it as a favor to a coworker (the date was with her daughter), so, I started acting like I didn’t care and…

“Should I End My Long Distance Relationship?”

I am a 27-year-old East Coast woman in a very long distance relationship with a 34-year-old German man. We email back and forth at least twice a day, and talk for a long time on the phone or FaceTime at least five times as week. Prior to him, I had casually dated a handful of guys, and at one point had my heart broken by a close friend who ultimately decided he didn’t want me the way I wanted him. But other than that, I’ve pretty much always been genuinely happy flying solo. My boyfriend and I met within the last few months of him living in the US, and dated very…
