“He Doesn’t See a Future with Me”
“In the past he has said that he sees a future with me, but now he says that he can’t see himself ever getting married to me or having a life with me.”

I’m 24 and I just came out around a month ago as a lesbian, first to myself and then to my sister and dad who are totally supportive — in fact, they always felt that I was a lesbian growing up because I was a serious tomboy, among other things. Thing is, a few weeks ago, I came out to my mom (my parents are divorced) and she seriously does not believe me. She says there is something wrong with me hormonally, especially as I was growing up, something about my being borderline Cushings disease, and she told me to not go around telling people that I’m gay. This hurts me big…
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 am 25-years-old and I prefer the company of… myself. I’ve always been an introvert; however, that’s not to say I don’t have friends. My problem is that while I have a proclivity to be alone, I have friends that – to me – are needy, but to the rest of the world, are probably normal. I naturally don’t hang out much and there are times when I go into total reclusion. This hermetic bout includes me going hours/days without contact with anyone else. I’m aware…
My fiancé is a wonderful man and our relationship is amazing in every way, except for one thing: kissing during foreplay and sex. It’s really strange, because my fiancé is a great kisser otherwise, and used to be a great kisser while being intimate, but it seems that recently, his kissing skills have regressed. The problem is that when he gets really into the moment, he starts practically mauling my face off, which is not sexy at all, and, is painful when he has stubble, which is most of the time. I’ve usually been able to solve the problem by situating myself so that I’m above him when we’re kissing so that…
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 writing for a little advice about my best pal of the last 10 years who just turned 30, has a demanding job in entertainment, and has been married (for 3 years) to her longtime love. She has struggled with anxiety for the last 4 years or so, and is a very holistic type of person (she hates taking any types of pills, let alone something such as anti-anxiety medication that isn’t herbal.) She’s an incredibly smart person, her husband is very supportive and she has…
I have been married for nearly 20 years (lived with hubby for a couple of years first) and we have a small child, under five. I was in my early 20s when we married (and, let’s just say that now I don’t recommend getting married that young), but I have been pretty unhappy in my marriage for probably the past 7 years or so. I have a serious aversion to confrontation. I avoid it like the plague. I’m also, in some ways, a bit of a wimp. Thankfully, I am successful in my career, and it is an escape for me. I swallow the things I want to say about my husband…

I was engaged three years ago and had friends agree to be in my bridal party. I broke off the engagement nine months before the wedding date…
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: How can I get my wife to get out of her own head and live in the moment with me? We have been married for 7 years and have a 3 and 1 year-old. Mostly, our lives are happy but lately I’ve been frustrated with her inability to step out of her mom-centered managerial mindset and focus on our relationship. Basically, I feel like the 5th or 6th item on her daily list and most days, she doesn’t get to me. It’s not just sex, though…
I have been with my boyfriend for three years. About one year ago, I discovered he was having an affair with a girl (she was barely 18, we are nearly 30) who lived in the town he traveled to frequently for business. He claimed for months they were just friends, but every time she would call, he would leave the room, so I knew SOMETHING was happening. He finally confessed that he was in love with her, we broke up, and he moved out of our shared house. A few days later he moved her up to our town. Less than a week later, he was crying to me and wanting to…
