Your Turn: “How Do I Stop Being So 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: I’m 30 years old, and a painful divorce and an insecure personality has led me down an awful path of jealousy. My boyfriend is sweet, faithful, and an all-around a great guy….a great guy with a TON of girl friends. He knows so many women, and is very close to several of them. He describes his friendships with them as “little sister/big brother” type of relationships, and I’ve seen it with my own eyes-they definitely are. He is doting and protective, but not interested in these…

Your Turn: “Our Wedding Is Ruining Our Relationship!”

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: My boyfriend and I are getting married in just under nine weeks and it has become a massive struggle. We are paying loads of money for last-minute things (clearing the balance for the reception, the photographer, etc), which means we can’t go out or do anything spontaneous like order a pizza, which has been hugely stressful and depressing for both of us. We were both unemployed for a long time and started saving up for the wedding soon after we got jobs, so we didn’t really…

Your Turn: “How Do I Learn to Trust Him Again?”

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 almost two years. We’re silly together, the sex is good, and we’re a good team. I’ve never had jealousy issues in a relationship before, and tend to be the opposite of insecure-crazy; we watch porn together, talk about other girls (and guys) together, and have even had a threesome with another woman (which, believe it or not, was my idea). The problem is that over the course of the past four months, I have caught him speaking to other…

Your Turn: “I Have a Lot of Baggage From My Divorce”

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 a 21-year-old female who recently finalized my divorce. We are both in the military, and we were long distance for our entire relationship which obviously made it hard. We had a whirlwind romance and got married after nine months of dating, thinking it would be possible that we would be able to get stationed near each other after we were married. Well, that turned out to not be the case, and we remained stationed on separate coasts. Almost immediately after we were married he…

Your Turn: “How Long Should I Wait For a Proposal”

In a feature I call “Your Turn,” in which you, the readers, get to answer the question, I’m presenting the following letter — with a question that’s arguably the most common one I’m asked — without commentary from me: I have been with my boyfriend for almost five years now. I’m 25 and he’s 34. We started dating when I was 18. I cheated on him, he wanted to work it out and I said no because I was young, wanted to experience life and wasn’t sure I could be faithful. He was hurt, of course, but I felt it was better to be honest than stay together and wind up cheating…

Your Turn: “My Boyfriend’s Cancer is Coming Between Us”

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 ten months and it was perfect at first — a few arguments here and there which normal — but we’ve been having problems for the last three weeks. He was diagnosed with cancer six months ago. Since I live in Canada and he moved to the US for his treatment, our arguments increased due to the distance issue. However, he would always accommodate me and would come see me here and there and, of course, we talked on the…

Your Turn: “I Love My Boyfriend, But Should I Explore Other Options?”

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 20 and started dating a former co-worker about five months ago. At first he seemed to have his life together for a 25-year-old. He had his BA, two jobs, and had a lot of other things going for him. Naturally, the beginning was and continues to be amazing, although there have been HUGE bumps in the road. There are some trust issues, but he has been a lot of firsts for me, so it’s harder for me to let go. He has been there during…

Your Turn: “He Doesn’t See a Future With Me”

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 a 27 year old female and have been dating a 30 year old man for 1 1/2 years. He is kind, thoughtful, attractive, smart, treats me well and I am in love with him. But…(isn’t there always a but?) he is unable to say he loves me or sees a future, not just for me, but for himself. He is not sure if he ever wants to get married or have children, which was once upon a time his “childhood dream.” This could be…

Your Turn: “My Boyfriend Talks to Me About Other Women”

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 in college and have been with my boyfriend for nearly two years. Overall, our relationship is great: we have a lot of fun, love each other, are about to move in together, and look forward to our future with one another. However, neither of us has many friends, so we rely on each other for comfort/companionship on a daily basis (though I do hope and feel that this will change soon). Sine my boyfriend doesn’t really have any “bros” or male-type friends he can talk…

Your Turn: “He Doesn’t Believe He Can Be Faithful To Me”

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 27 and I’ve been dating my 34-year-old boyfriend for three and a half years, living together for two. We get along fantastically, still love being around each other, have great sex, and have shared interests in terms of our future. I’m in no rush to get married, but I figured that we were comfortably moving in that direction. Unfortunately, I shouldn’t have assumed. He says he can’t imagine life without me, but a year ago, he started expressing doubts not in our relationship, but in…
