“My Boyfriend Broke Up With Me Over False Cheating Accusations”

I have been with my boyfriend for about two years. We are long-distance and see each other about once every month or two. We had plans for me to move to his location at the end of this year. Last year, we went to Las Vegas for EDC (the Electric Daisy Carnival) with a group of our friends (originally his). One of the friends, “Colin,” began to seem flirtatious with me. The second morning we all got back to our camping trailer, and my boyfriend, along with a few others, went to take a shower. Me, Colin and another friend, “Kyle,” stayed behind. I did not feel well, so Colin gave me…

“Should I Let My Ex Keep Calling Me?”

My long-distance ex-boyfriend and I broke up in August. He was my first true love and my first everything, so the break up hit me hard. I have been focusing on myself and trying to do the best for me, but I’m still in love with him. After we broke up, he would occasionally call me to tell me that he loves me and misses me, so I would get my hopes up that he might want to get back together. But then one morning he called and was talking about a girl (never dropped a name, but the whole time I thought it was me). He then said he thought about…

“My Friends Aren’t Showing Up for my Wedding”

I am a 40-year-old woman from South America. I have an adult child, and I will be getting married this May. I was in hetero relationships my whole life and they were all healthy. A few years ago, I fell in love with a colleague from work (we now work for different companies) – same age, same sex. While she has been with women her whole life, she was my first. We dated for a year or so, moved in together after that, and got engaged a year later. Everything is perfect and she is the best person ever, but while I love the idea of being married to her, I’m less…

Update: “Granny’s Got to Go” Responds

It’s time again for “Dear Wendy Updates,” a feature where people I’ve given advice to in the past let us know whether they followed the advice and how they’re doing now. Today we hear from “Granny’s Got to Go” (LW2) who wrote in three years ago when she was discussing moving in with her boyfriend whose 69-year-old grandmother lived with him. She didn’t want to share a home with the grandmother. She wrote: “I know most people may not have a problem just moving in with a man and his grandmother, but I have a 12-year-old daughter and I want her to feel comfortable in her own house. My boyfriend at first wanted…

Quickies: “He Suddenly Lost Feelings for Me. Is it a Midlife Crisis?”

I met my boyfriend a little over a year ago. Everything was perfect. I mean, too-good-to-be-true perfect: no fighting, great to me and my child. Anyway, after our one year together, he started to have no feelings. Like, he was empty. He said that the only feeling he had was for his boys, and that as they get older, they don’t need him anymore and that hurts him. It makes me feel so confused because everything was great. At first I thought he sounded depressed but now I am thinking he’s having a midlife crisis (he’s 37). But I am unsure, and unsure how to help him. We still live together but…

“Should I Go to My Grandfather’s Funeral if it Would Cause Family Drama?”

Dear Wendy, Believe me, I know this sounds very selfish, but maybe it is my diagnosed anxiety which is making me worry about these things which will come to pass. I recently lost contact with my bio dad and stepmother, and more recently his sister and her family. During the holidays, they — my aunt, her husband, and my cousins – started questioning me and harassing me about my dad late at night over social media, and I blocked them on all platforms. I only met them in 2017, so we’re not close-knit, but there are important reasons why I have little contact with them. Now my beloved grandfather – my bio…
