So, my boyfriend and I had some problems. I went and hung out with people with whom I had hooked up with before he and I met. But once we were together I told these people no more than friend stuff. But I lied to my bf about where I was and he caught me with these people multiple times. He is convinced I cheated but I didn’t. I admitted I lied and shouldn’t have been with those people without being honest with him 100% but he doesn’t believe me. And if I were him I wouldn’t either. Now I do believe if I just say I cheated he would forgive me, but otherwise I don’t think he’ll ever trust me aga ..read more

Hello, so this is going to be long and detailed, but here goes... 1) PROBLEM Three years ago, I spent a year abroad at a US college where I met someone. We became friends and I developed a crush that has since become somewhat obsessive. They had initiated the friendship but have been ambivalent in their behavior since. 2) CONTEXT I realize that most of the following is not going to come across as very independent and self-possessed and I might even need therapeutic help in the long-run regardless of this situation. For now, I would appreciate some feedback on how to interpret things since I fi ..read more

So recently mysef and partner of many years have been struggling, she has a few issues/demons from the past which has made it tricky for us to really move on, So a few days ago she decided to cut me loose via messenger, which was low in its self but because I love her I went round there to see her face to face and for the first time in almost 4 years she really opened up about everything, she was relieved, I could see it in her that she was amazed she could actually let it all out and I wasnt going to judge or love her any less. So all was looking good and we were about to head out after she ..read more

I asked out a coworker I have a crush on and he was really sweet and said he unfortunately has a gf, and asked if I was okay and if we're good and that it's not personal that he can't hang out with me, so as not to give his gf the wrong idea. Then, I texted him thanks for being so sweet about the whole thing and we're good, and that if it doesn't work out with his gf he knows where to find me. And he answered "yup definitely, you're a very sweet girl! :)" I'm so confused, so does he like me back? Should I wait a couple months for them to break up, since they just started dating? I just really ..read more

I have a girlfriend that I have been fooling around with on and off since the age of 15. We finally reconnected 8 years ago and she moved in after a few months.

So I was talking to this girl that I met on the bumble dating app. We got together and had brunch about 3 weeks ago and we’re texting each other everyday since and talking about hanging out again. We were texting the weekend before last talking about going to grab drinks after work and then maybe head back to her place to watch a movie. But when I asked about meeting up Tuesday last week she never responded. I’m not exactly heart broken but I’m just confused what happened and it’s driving me crazy thinking about this. We got along and were into a lot of the same things and she even ..read more

Sorry that this is kind of long but I would really appreciate any suggestions on what I should do:   I met this guy (University student) on Tinder and we chatted for almost 1.5 months, he seems like a sweet and nice guy from his text replies but the thing is he always replies me like many hours later or few times doesn’t read/ reply to my messages for a few days and I am always the one to start a conversation.   So finally last week we both managed to have some free time for a meetup, he bought some food and we went to a park and chatted a lot, with laughter, it was a pleasant conver ..read more

Please reply with any suggestions that you have.  So I have a huge crush on a guy. And after a lot of effort, we were at the stage where we would regularly facetime. (can't meet due to lockdown) I could feel that he had started liking me. But before things could move ahead, I said something that hurt his self-respect (He is very serious about it). From then on things changed. Even after I apologized, he says he is fine but acts differently, no facetime and only formal work-related text messages. I tried a lot to move on, but this guy is just stuck in my head. Don't wanna lose him. What sh ..read more

Sorry if this is lengthy, I’m just feeling really bummed, especially having seen the last of my friends marry last week, one who all thought would be a bachelor for life(yes, I’m happy for him and his new wife and wish them nothing but happiness, please do not misconstrue this with jealousy or envy). It did get me thinking like “Damn, something must be wrong with me now!”. Thinking about my parents who were married for almost 54 years before my mother passed away.   I know being in my mid 40’s now I’ll never have that kind of longevity if I ever find the right one and marry, I also ..read more
