Advice on relationships?

where do i even begin, im so confused right now, it's like i lost everything i already knew, or maybe i never had it but i really want to find the right guy for me, i just dont know where to startAdvice on relationships?
Dr. Phil should get a Yahoo!Answers account.Advice on relationships?
Been there, done that, you'll need to be a little more specific. As on where to start, groups of friends, I met my wife because she was a friend of a friend that got invited to an activity that I organised!

Could you give me any advice or help me in saving my relationship? =/?

okay.


i've been dating my boyfriend for a little over a month and a week. just to outline it, he's 17 and i'm 14. our birthday's are both in november. my parents know we're together, and they love him.





anyways. we used to always argue and fight, like it was pretty much a daily thing, no lie. but the other night, we got into a big one, and he told me that ';if he hurts me again, then he wants me to break up with me.'; i didnt agree to this, but i didnt disagree. ever since that night, there has been a little tension. we havent been in any big arguments or fights, maybe just minor ones that we got over. i feel like he's kind of pulling away from me, and he doesnt say 'i love you' nearly as much as he used to .. usually, it's just 'love you' now. i dont know if it means his feelings are changed, but it bothers me knowing that he wont say ';i love you.'; but when we're together, everything is like perfectly fine. but when we're not, it's all weird. [continued]Could you give me any advice or help me in saving my relationship? =/?
Wow that was long. You really sound like you like this guy. But the two of you only been going out for a month. It also sounds like a lot of fighting. You do know that you will have lots of boyfriends by the time you are 18, why are you worring? One month is not a relationship. Thats just a fling.


If things dont work out dont worry, Theres lots more.Could you give me any advice or help me in saving my relationship? =/?
sounds like me. well im not gonna say that it's not gonna work out because it will believe me. I would jusst give him his space for a while. Don't talk about certain things that make him uncomfortable or things he really doesn't want to talk about. About the 'love you'; I love you thing its really all the same. my b/f says it all the time. and we are inseperable. You shouldn't doubt that he loves you because judging by your story it sounds like he is crazy for you. just give him time and u will see how things will change for the better. Another thing don't call him 24/7 limit ur calls to like 2 times a week. or something like that. just a thought
At that age, its a biiig age difference. 17 y/o guys who date 14 y/o girls are usually either:





1. Desperate. They can't find a girl around their age, so they resort to younger ones.





2. Perverts. They want to use you because they think you're young %26amp; gullible. They will say ANYTHING to get into your pants, so to speak. ';Baby I love you and I'd never do anything to hurt you, you know that.';... ';I don't think you love me like you used to, you have to prove your love to me by ____.';

Can you give me some advice or your opinion about my relationship situation?

I've been dating my girlfriend for about 6 months now. We're both 18 and i really really care about this girl. I remember having a discussion with her towards the beginning of our relationship about how some of our friends who were only going out for a short period of time we're saying i love you to each other and how we both thought it was so meaningless. Recently in my relationship my girlfriend has been saying things to me like ';my feeling have grown for you so much i can't even describe how you make me feel'; and i'm thinking it might be the right time to tell her i love you, but what do you think?

  • How many of you think that you are better at giving advice then taking your OWN advice in relationships?

    This is definitely me! I help everyone else work through their relationship issues, but when it comes to my own I never listen to myself. lolHow many of you think that you are better at giving advice then taking your OWN advice in relationships?
    i'm not good at anything that has to do with relationshipsHow many of you think that you are better at giving advice then taking your OWN advice in relationships?
    I can't comment on this excellent question as you must know that advice in relationships may turn up your life. So always take advice from that person who wants to see you happy always. And if you think that I have such capabilities and qualities then you may take my advice.
    I agree, would be lying if I said otherwise :)
    Excellent question!! It seems so different when you are on the inside looking at it then when you can stand back and look at the situation!!
    woooooooo thats one for me
    I already do myself what I advise others. I give logical and sound advice and it is what I would want/need to hear and follow when I need direction. I have always had to trust myself, because I have had to rely on myself to keep myself straight.
    Me, sometimes.
    I think we are all better at giving advice, than we are at using our own. Communication in relationships are the key. The problem is when one partner is willing to talk and the other does not. Also I believe a lot of relationships have on partner willing to act as an adult, and the other acts their shoe size!!
    can't go so far, every one know we ask and answer just for fun
    couldn't agree more.
    That would be me!

    Can someone give me some advice on how to save this relationship?

    I met a girl online, fell in love with her, thought she'd fallen in love with me. I recently visited her family, they don't know about us. The first night there I had a chance to kiss her and let it slip away. Then I panicked over it and sent her a bunch of messages the next two days about wanting to talk with her alone. I'm pretty sure I scared her. Then another guy came, another friend of hers. He's alot more social than me, and lives alot closer to her. I'm afraid she may have fallen for him, and even if she didn't...





    She said that we could talk about things, but we never got to. She said she didn't want to rush things, even though we talked before about kissing. It was the second time I'd seen her in person. She said we could talk over the phone, but she never called. the day I left I gave her a hug and whispered ';I love you.';





    Than after all that, she now sent a message saying it won't work. she didn't give a reason why and says she can't because the next few days are busy for her.





    I know I've screwed up, but I love her and I don't want this to end like this. I don't want to lose her. Please, I want to save this, I don't want to lose her. What do I do? do I tell he sister about us? Do I call her and try to talk? How do I go about it?








    I've known her for about a year. Realized I'd fallen for her near mid-March





    and I've just found out from a mutual friend, she sent a message that said ';I had a traumatizing weekend.';





    Please, help. Pray for me. What do I do?!





    alot of you are telling me to give her time. how much time?





    and to anyone else out there who thinks the question is too long, don't bother answering. I need advice, not insults. Please answer the questions.


    Can someone give me some advice on how to save this relationship?
    ive been in your situation bro. somewhere she lost interest in you, but at least she told you straight up that its not going to work out. In a situation like this, i would wait it out for a good 2 weeks. If she doesnt answer any of ur calls back by then, i hate to say it, but its time to move on. Women believe in letting guys ';getting the hint'; by avoiding you because a lot of them dont have the courage to outright hurt your feelings and tell you the harsh truth to your face. But trust me man, u didnt screw up nothing for being yourself. ill pray for you, but start getting mentally ready to move on man.Can someone give me some advice on how to save this relationship?
    you know she might just be scared of commitment i am the same way. this kid told me that he loved me and that he didn't want to lose me and i pulled away.





    i don't know what her reasons are but if she is like me it could just be that


    she doesn't know what to do from this point. she may not want to get her heart broken no matter how many times you tell her that you wont or don't want to break her heart she may just not be able to let her guard down don't take it personal it may not be a trust issue just a personal issue. don't try to push anything on her it will only make her only want to turn away more maybe just don't talk about that issue for awhile.





    i don't know her so i don't know how well this advice is but bottom line maybe try and steer away from pushing her into this relationship, you wouldn't wanna lose her friendship right,











    I HOPE THIS HELPS I WILL BE ROOTING FOR YOU!
    Heyy...


    well im really sorry to say but this dosent look promising... first of all you guys met online.. not the best and then you said i love you? ummmm you cant just whip out the i love you girls take that very seriously maybe shes just freaking out becuase you said that and is scared?? about commiting to someone..


    awnser mine??

    It is all part of dating and learning. Yes the time issue sounds great. She doesn't sound like she is to interested in you. Give her a few weeks. Let her mind and yours clear up. Approach her with caution. You win some and lose some. I had the same thing happen to me once. I wasn't that skilled and once I messed up she left me and then said she wanted to be left alone. So feel out the situation. If she keeps brushing you off then let her go. There will be other girls to go after.
    that's a really long question but who cares you;re worry about the person you like


    but most girls always say guys rush things too fast


    love is not a maybe thing and she's not serious because you guys don't really see each other and you met her online most people don't take it serious if they met online.THe guy that lives close to her he have a Chance to go out with her.


    so i suggest to move and find a girl that really like you.
    Sounds like she has either lost intrest in you.I think you should leave her if she doesnt want to be with you then she is just a waste of time.If you really want to find out why she is acting this way tell her you want to meet up with her to have a chat and ask her if she loves you and tell her the truth about how you love her and tell her you couldnt stop thinking of her and felt like it has been to long tell her why she needs a lot of time she might be a bit scared of whats happening.
    there are plenty of factors here. she may have just lost interest in you or found something creepy about you. i mean sure things can be great at first when you start talking and as far astelling her you love her is a bit creepy after only seeing her for the second time. you are probably different in person than online. the distance can also be a factor. you can call her if you want but dont think she will answer right away plus you dont want to appear stalkerish. good luck
    I'm not gonna go stereotypical with all the ';Be yourself'; stuff - you should already be doing that.





    Instead, have you ever wondered whether this is just a girls way of getting attention? See, if they know that you'll be at their feet if they PRETEND to like someone else, the get twice as much attention. I've never had a girlfriend before, but I can say this: you can break up with her, or continue like this untill a flaw in her plan is discovered, it's your call.





    P.S: So you know, i'm praying for you. (I lit an incense stick, it was lavender by the way.)
    First its not you. The first warning was when she didn't tell her family about you. Thats her choice not yours. The other guy is probably turning on the heat and maybe that's why she invited you over in the first place. The problem with internet is we get to put words in the air with no context. For most of the people on here, the statement ,';I'm 50,'; means I'm half dead, out of touch with what its like to be 20, blah blah balh.


    You had a mental picture of her and how it would be when you met. Then you met and reality hit you both in the face. Give her credit if she met you twice before deciding she didn't think it would work between you. This doesn't make her a bad person. Though I am not clear on the etiquette of breaking up I think its in bad taste to end even this type of relationship on a text. She would have looked more classy if she'd done it the last time you were with her.


    Move on and look for your love of your life in reality where you can get signals and background and share the same. You will be more successful out in the park.


    There was a song out a few months ago about how much better a guy looked on the internet. It's true, some of us can't help but tout physical attributes because that is what we're told is attractive. But there's more to it than that and you need to be up close and personal to findout how you will fit with someone else.


    If you can't let go of this girl then you are in danger of becoming a stalker. You aren't in charge of her feelings and you can't make her love you. Especially with the signs that she may possibly have been using you to get this other guy in her life.


    We are telling you like it is. But if you want what you want and don't care what others have to say then go to another site.
    Sorry, but it sounds like she's just not into you. It stinks but it happens to us all from time to time. You can't ';fix'; or ';save'; it because it was never really there in the first place. It doesn't mean anything is wrong with you - it just wasn't meant to be.
    sadly i don't think there is a whole lot that you can do. If she likes someone els thats her own decision. You might just have to give her a couple of weeks and if her and the other guy aren't ment to be then she will probably come back to you. I'm sorry it doesn't sound like a lot of help but thats really all you can do right now. maybe its just not ment to be.
    not to be mean, but maybe she didnt find you attractive in person or soemthing? or just felt embarressed about having a relationship with someone she met online? i know u dont want people just telling you it wont work, but it really doesnt look like it will :(. if you keep trying she's going to seriously think your obsessed or a nutjob and probably will stop talking to you. just be her friend for now and just be as happy as u can be with that for now.





    good luck xx
    wow! you sound like a very nice sensitive guy.. dont worry about the whole kiss thing (it probably wasnt the right time anyhow).. i think you should write her an email or text tell her once more you are really interested in her (compliment her on something) and then say but although it saddens your very much you respect and understand that want she wants is NOT you..... but that if she ever needed she could call and talk.. and then leave it at that..


    you are makeing yourself seem to desperate and its turning her off.. the only possible way is to put your feelings out there and then leave it at that...


    now let me also say it is sooooo much easier said then done cause i am in a sort of similar situation right now and i know i should back off but i cant cause the fear of loseing them is so strong.. but i know that would be for the best but it is soooo hard! good luck!

    Can you please give me advice on my friends with benefits relationship?

    I recently saw a friend of mine I hadn't seen in a few years at a party and he ended up spending the night at my place and we had sex the next day. I've been talking to him online and on the phone since, but he's been mentioning other women that he likes. I'm assuming this means he doesn't like me, yet he extended an invitation to me to come over to his apt anytime I'd like and that he's really trying to move on from his past failed relationship. Is he trying to make me jealous or is he really not interested? He is relatively unstable emotionally and has a lot of issues, and I've always been there for him. He calls me when he's in trouble or needs emotional support, I've known him about 6 years. I love that he trusts me and feels open with me about his feelings, but is he just using me? I feel like I'm always there for him and I really care about him, and I don't know how he feels about me. I'm scared to bring it up with him and we both are acting like nothing happened. Was this just a one time thing? Have any of you been in a situation like this or have any advice as to what to do? I'm nervous to see him as I'm not sure if he's expecting sex...it really was great, but I'm scared of getting hurt :(Can you please give me advice on my friends with benefits relationship?
    Hey. I was in a similar situation. I don't think he is trying to make you jealous. Guys are complete idiots sometimes. I'm willing to bet that he has NO clue that you feel the way you do towards him. Even after the fact that you guys slept together. Now days people can have sex without having feelings for each other, h*** you don't even have to know their names these days. I think he is likes having you around too much, he knows that you'll always be there for him. And now that he knows he can get more from you in a physical sense....all the while he's in between females. Hon, I think you guys should talk. Tell him how you feel. After a while it'll get old....if it hasnt already....and it'll just completly destroy your ';friendship';. Best of luck.Can you please give me advice on my friends with benefits relationship?
    My personal Experience is same but I am a guy. We had sex even when my friend knew that i m dating another chick. It happens when thought of sex drives u crazy. if u enjoyed sex with him before then go to his apt. But if we guys share our emotions with someone, then it means that we really like them as our friend so it doesnt mean that he is using u.
    Sounds like he likes you and likes having sex with you but doesn't want to be your boyfriend. If you are looking for a relationship, you should be looking for someone else.

    What is your advice to a very sensitive person that is afraid to date or even have a close relationship with?

    a woman?What is your advice to a very sensitive person that is afraid to date or even have a close relationship with?

    wow. that u havve to take a chance... U'll never ride a wave it u don't catch it. Everyone gets their heart broken one time or another but u could fall n love to it's like playing the lottery I guess. take a chance... just b careful with ur heart.
    You need to move past the insecurity, or you'll either always be single or have an unsatisfying relationship. You have to take risks in life or you'll never get anywhere. Maybe try counseling or some sort of support group.
    She does not need any advice! When nature is ready, the person will be there and she will do what ever.

    Relationship issues at 26 weeks pregnant, any advice?

    I'm 26 weeks pregnant with twins and my boyfriend and I are having a few problems. The pregnancy was not planned and at first he wanted me to have an abortion but due to having one at 17 due to rape (we're both 21 now) I was completely against the idea. In fact, we'd discussed unplanned pregnancy many times before as we all know that nothing provides 100% protection other than celibacy! Anyway, whenever we'd discussed it in the past, it wasn't a problem (cos he obviously hadn't thought it through) and I'd told him there was no way I'd abort or give my child up for adoption, so that got me down a bit and that was the start of our problems. I just can't forget it but don't want to throw it in his face.





    It's made me feel like he resents me for keeping the babies (twins). He's excited and says he loves me but now and then we get into a complete rut where we have an argument and it never gets sorted as a few days or a week later we end up having the same sort of argument.





    I don't know what to do anymore. I've even thought about leaving him sometimes but I really don't want to do this alone and I do still love him, I just don't like him anymore.





    He's become a completely different person since we found out I was pregnant. We're both really stressed about it and about work etc but he takes it out on me all of the time and is always snapping at me. The way my hormones are at the moment, it just makes me cry everytime he does that and it makes me feel like it's my fault that he's being like that.





    I want to sort this but don't know what to do. He's been a right git about everything of late and I can't take much more.





    One example of him snapping (and this is really petty!) is that I had to pick up a delivery of a mother's day present which arrived late, which took all of 5 mins this dinner time, and he told me that I had p****d him off because I'd messed up his dinner break because I'd picked up a present for my mum. It was OUR dinner break and I'd told him about it the night before. It's just petty things like that all of the time though, he's just always having a go.Relationship issues at 26 weeks pregnant, any advice?
    I'm sorry to hear about the situation your in but really guys are jerks like that and once you get pregnant things change. I'm not sure what goes on in there head. If its that they know we are pregnant and theres not much we can do anymore or what. I think they get cocky about it and think they have us right where they want us well at least for the next 9 months anyway. You just gave me an idea. I'm going to ask the guys out there why they do this as soon as Im done answering your question, so keep an eye out for the question and see what responses we get. I think it is that he resents the fact you kept the babies but DONT let him bring you down because of it. Abortion is a hard decision and I can only imagen how hard it was trying to decide to terminate two babies instead just one that is hard enuff. Guys mature way slower then girls and it is that he's going to be faced with alot of responsibility pretty soon and he probably wasn't ready for it. Before when you talked to him about your feelings on abortion he honestly probably didn't think you'd end up pregnant and kinda told you what you wanted to hear. And now that the situation is real, he's freaking out. I know extactly how you feel too. I'm 16 weeks and 5 days prego and I'm so emotional. My bf gets like that to where he doesn't watch what he says or the tone he uses and I get so emotional. Its cause we feel that they should be there and taking care of us the most right now because we're carrying there children but they dont think like that or feel it the same way we do. Dont let yourself feel like it's your fault cause it's not. He should be taking your feelings more into consideration right now. My bf is just like him too. He wanted me to have an abortion but then he didnt. He'd change his mind every other day and we would fight about it too and we are just like that. We fight (we fought lastnight for that matter) and then the issues never really get resolved and come back out a few weeks later. It's like a broken record. Its not good for the relationship either but I dont know how to fix it or change it either. Be strong Girly and think of your babies. As much as it hurts to fight with him and feel like your not going to have a happy lil family. Just tell him like I told my bf, that you need to start thinking about the people who are more important then him and his bs and that's your babies so dont be stressin out cause it;s not good for them. They deserve better and if they cant get it from him at least you can give them better and be a strong, confident and loving mother. Good luck. Email if you need too. I'll be there for you.Relationship issues at 26 weeks pregnant, any advice?
    You should talk to him. If he doesn't listen then you should tell him that if you don't listen then i will break up with u
    My husband and I have been arguing a bit more since I've become pregnant so I understand what you are going through. You both need to be patient with each other and just breath. I'm sure he's just as stressed as you. That doesn't excuse being rude, neither does the hormones, but lets be realistic b/c we all know that both makes for short nerves. Because you only gave us your side I am going to just assume you are a bit rude too ( as I am sometimes). Don't take offense to that though. Take a break from each other- an hour or two- when things start getting snippy. Be positive with each other everyday. Things like '; I appreciate that you......';, thank each other - even for the small things. This has to be a 2way communication. Sit with him and let him know how this is affecting you. You don't need the stress but you both have to work on it
    I think hes very immature for being 21years old. He obviously has alot of growing up to do and hopefully he does it before these precious babies come into the world. I would sit him down and lay it all out for him. Let him know that yes people do get stressed but his petty fights and whinning are not going to be tolerated. If it continues i would leave him. Hope things work out for you hun =)
    All I can say to you both is try sitting to talk just almost after the problem or maybe you can try staying as calm as ever, I have a 7 months old and believe me i went through the same problems with my husband we did not plan our pregnancy also and i guess he was angry when i got pregnant and also wanted me to get a abortion or do what ever to make the pregnancy go away and i think because you made a decision alone you have to pay that price. My husband treated me really awful when i was pregnant with our daughter today i still feel the hurt and pain its a constant reminder, but it later turn out that he was actually having an affair he would leave me home alone and some-days he never called to see how i was doing when he was at work and if i call him sometime he would not answer his cell or just hang up on me or just yell at me just for wanting to know how he was doing i became stuck in the middle and felt really bad and unwanted during my pregnancy, but i kept my days pretty much occupy by just hanging here on the sight answering question this sight really help me to feel that someone was virtually there for me. But try talking to him and keep yourself relax and don't let it bother you so much i know eventually my situation bother me and i ended up going into labor early because i was so overwhelm by what was going on.
    What a jerk! He's rebelling because his life is about to be turned upside down when your twins arrive. Give him a little space. But he shouldn't be leaving you alone every weeknight and on the weekends, that is extreme. I'm sure you have, but have you tried talking calmly to him about this? I was having similar problems with my boyfriend but thankfully he has really turned around. I just kept praying and praying about it.





    Maybe you need to tell him that how he is behaving is unacceptable and while you love him very much and would like to have a family with him, you can not tolerate how he is behaving.





    I don't know... =[ This is tough.





    Good luck!
    sounds like you are both a little hormonal I mean I am 30 weeks with our second and I am moody and seems he is having sympathy mood swings haha! And he got all the cravings! But it happens you both are stressed I mean your not just having a baby your having 2 babies at once which when they get here will be very hard to handle maybe he got a little jealous that you left him on the dinner date maybe he just wants to spend all the time he can with you! You know before you both have to devote every second of every day to screaming babies...try to be sympathetic...and he should be sympathetic to you too considering that you are carrying his babies! Good luck!!!
    He didn't want the babies to begin with because he didn't want the responsibility. He is being immature and needs to step up and be a man.





    I was on the pill and got pregnant with twins, but my boyfriend (husband now) was absolutely excited! If he had acted like your man I would have told him to get his **** and get out.
    i think you should really sit down and have a convo w/o the yelling and try to resolve it...i had the same issue w/ my bf he wanted me to abort my child and go on with our lives...but i just couldn't go on think i did this (witch i didn't) he kept on till i was about 3 months he even cheated on me so i would abort but i didn't....i broke up with him changed my number and moved on like normal i told my self he doesn't come back F**K him....and guess what girl he came looking for me and we have been together for 3 years with our 2 year old daughter and trying for our second...........





    now im not saying its gonna get better asap but trust me put your foot down now before it gets worse...be strong and don't stress because your twins feel what your feeling....





    CONGRATS AND GOOD LUCK
    Well, I would keep him around for now anyways...You both seem to love each other very much, but things need to change. Having twins is such a blessing!! I am pregnant with a little boy, but am a twin myself and you're going to love it! :) Don't feel like you are to blame when he gets upset. Guys don't know how to handle a woman being pregnant, trust me. MY boyfriend and I fought the first few months I was pregnant all the dam* time and it killed me! But, if both of you are stressing out and money is tight then that is a reason to set things off. He needs to be more sensitive to your feelings and understand that this is about the twins now, and not all about you and him. You should really sit down with him and have a heart to heart. Maybe you can both work on each other's pet peeves to make life less stressful. Tell him that the last thing you need is to be stressed out by him and go in 2 preterm labor and you are a High Risk pregnancy and he needs to respect that and be there for you. I know hormones are CRAZY when pregnant, but try not to let the little things bother you. I think that as a pregnant woman, we tend to overreact and that's where some of the fights persist from. I don't know what else to tell you, but I definitely feel for you. I wanted to break up with my bf 1 or 2 times in the beginning of my pregnancy because I was sick of fighting, but we worked things out and are very excited to meet our son in the next week or two (hopefully). Just hang in there, and don't forget a lot of women on here have been through what you're dealing with, and can help you out anytime!!
    He's a jerk. I'd leave him, you know deep down you should. And guess what, no matter if the babies are wanted or unwanted he has to pay child support. Yay!
    Aww, poor baby. I am so sory. You need to make him realize that you did not get pregnant on your own, and if he has any problems about you ot getting an abortion, then he really needs to get over it. If you decide to leave him (which is going to be a difficult choice), make an escape plan. Make sure everything is planned out. You don't need to be around this type of stress, it's not good for you or the babies. I hope everything gets bette. And btw Congrats on the twins..i'm happy, even if he's not.
    Seriously because you're getting closer and closer to your due date it probably is dawning on him how serious the situation is and that could account for the tension. I'm 27 weeks and me and my boyfriend have frequent arguments too. I put it down to the strain he is under at work and my hormones, as well as the fact that we are facing a lifetime of responsibility and more than likely financial strain.You could try to talk to him about it and try to understand his perspective while trying to get him to understand yours. The best thing you can do is try to talk about it and resolve it before it gets worse and obviously as you get closer to your due date you don't want to be losing sleep over these arguments!
    wow. think about this - if you're on yahoo answers asking strangers for advice it's obviously pretty bad. and it never gets better. he may love the children after your pregnancy but he will most likely hold this 'grudge' forever and be the self centered ignorant man he was. please, consider an alternative to being with him. maybe with your mother, sister, aunt, friend, whoever. this is not a time to be stressed out and miserable, you're having twins! how cool is that? also, after the babies are born they don't deserve to be in such an environment. please just think about it and good luck.
    Sounds like he is a real miserable prick. Sorry, I know you love him. But let's be for real here, snapping at you because you ';ruined'; 5 minutes...?


    As for the not wanting to abort situation, I think you made the right choice. There is ways around aborting. Just sit down and figure out what you will have to do to survive. Find a cheap day care or babysitter that you can trust and work 2 jobs if you have too. For the beginning it will suck because the twins will not be with you as much as youd like, but in the end, money problems will hopefully slow down and you cna be with them more nad have your family.


    As for him and the pregnancy, ask him what scraes him and why he seems like he does not want this.. hope it turns out okay for you!


    p.s. were you on th epill? i noticed the part you mentioned about impossible to NOT get prego. I am curious, not being rude r anythihng. Thanks.

    Need a piece of advice for my 2 1/2 yr relationship with my bf?

    he cheated on me twice and its the same girl. i loved him but i have difficulty bringing back the trust after the last time (the last time was just this june).he's more sweet and thoughtful now but im full of doubts for him.i know i still loved him but it's the trust i cant bring back.what will i do?Need a piece of advice for my 2 1/2 yr relationship with my bf?
    I was a full blown cheater and i learned that once a cheter always a cheater. if he did it to u not once but twice there is a third charm. fall inlove again and forget about the bastard its will be very easy as soon as you find some one but dont break it off till you find some1 love or no love you are gonna get hurt @ DA END OF THE DAY THSI IS FROM A FELLOW CHEATER. not so proud i lost alot of people that loved meNeed a piece of advice for my 2 1/2 yr relationship with my bf?
    R u waiting for what??? stop your heart!!! go away from him!!! He doesn't love u!!! One day u will find one guy who love u and care of u more...G luck :-)
    either deal with it because i bet he will do it again or cheat on him and show him how it feels
    cheated on you two times... How many cheats does take from you to get you to know when to break up!!!





    when I saw the question I thought you were my girl friend!! scared me lol!
    Either leave or get ready for it to happen again, sorry but thats human nature
    If you love you need to forgive him. If you can not get over the things he did then you need to move on. You do not really love him if you do not forgive him and can not trust him again.
    I think that your boyfriend isn't over his X and when he cheated once it wasn't bad enough that he hurt you deeply as he repeated what he had done. I would get a new boyfriend. I am sad for you. I wish I could say that he won't do it again but he already has. I think you deserve better only thing your getting is wasted time. Good luck!
    once a cheater always a cheater let him go he will only break your heart again
    Are you sure he's not cheating on her with you? No really, I just saw this on TV the other day when he was going with this girl for 2 yrs and come to find out that he had another girlfriend for 5 years.
    He won't change sweetie. It's a matter of respect. He does not respect and love you enough to stop this destructive behaviour. It will destroy your soul and he may bring you home a disease too. Take your heart in your own hands, take it back from him. Hold your head up high and respect yourself. Walk away from him and go towards a new life and you will meet someone who will love you and only you.I wish you all the love and luck in the world.
    If he is serious about you, he'll go in for counseling. This isn't an end of the world situation, but unless he is willing to do some work on it should be the end of the relationship situation. If he pulls this stunt at 2 imagine 12, 22, 32.
    you lost a major component of what a relationship should have. so its either he gains your trust back or you guys break up. and why do you want to be with someone who cheats on you?
    Dump Him. The same thing happened to me and you can never trust him again. Once a cheater always a cheater
    I will say this it is hard to trust someone when they have hurt you and to do it twice makes it that much harder. But you know a relationship goes both ways he has to earn your trust you should not be the only one working on the relationship. Only a few months ago he was cheating on you and he expects you to trust him just like that . I know you love him but he needs to show you that he deserves your trust
    break it off now. the only reason he is being so ';sweet'; and ';thoughtful'; is because you found out what he did, and he wants to keep you in his life because in real life, he knows those other girls aren't anything but booty, and he could actually have a relationship with you. it's just too bad that booty is more important to him than you are. so take my advice, break up with his sorry ***
    If you cannot trust him, why bother staying w/ him? Are you waiting for a 3rd time before you dump him? Why?
    If you're full of doubts and don't trust him then you don't love him. Only you can decide what to do.
    if you can handle the fact that he has done it and at some point will proly do it to you again, then stay together. if it is a major obstacle for you then bounce. not all men will do this to you, also if he did it once and intentionally put himself back in that same situation with the same person, then i'd have a trust issue's too.
    Once a ';cheater'; always a ';cheater';. If you want to spend your life in doubt and misery, stay with this guy.

  • Relationship troubles can anyone give me some advice?

    Having trust issues. Okay so ive been with my partner for 3 months now. He has had a troubled past but i didn't judge him because i liked him so much. Well here is whats going on. Recently he has been having a lot of problems and moved in with me. Everything was fine but im starting to think he has been lying to me about his life. Stuff like where he used to live, where he works and things of that nature. Ive introduced him to my family, but i have never met his family, Ive only met a couple of his closest friends. Now that we are living together a lot of things aren't adding up to the stories about his life that he has told me. He also has a eating disorder that i just recently discovered. I think this guy is going thru a lot but I don't know what to do or how to confront the situation without it being a problem that leads us to separate. What can i do in this situation. I do i get to the bottom of things and make this work? Any advice is welcome.Relationship troubles can anyone give me some advice?
    It is very hard to build a successful relationship when the very foundation is built with lies. If you are finding that little things don't add up, you are most likely going to find many many more.





    I will offer only simple advice because I believe whole heatedly that it is the best advice...move on. There are other opportunities out there.





    Honesty is key in a relationship...without that, what do you really have.





    Sorry this is happening...but good luck to you!Relationship troubles can anyone give me some advice?
    3 months is a little to soon to be living with your bf. Usuaslly by now you are just starting to find out these things. I would just sit him and down and spill the beans about both of your faults. If you start with something about you, it might make him feel more comfortable about telling all and also wont seem like you are cornering him.

    Relationship/Dating experts, I would LOVE your advice?

    Hi all, need some advice as I am very inexperienced in the dating world...and i am 24 almost 25.





    2 of my girl friends told me last month that this one girl wanted to meet me after she saw me at some party and thought I was cute. I never had seen her before until last night. They finally got something arranged and we hung out with bunch of friends. She introduced both of us to each other but then few mins later the girl went to the bathroom because she was nervous...she came back out and was little more relaxed and after that we talked as we got to the dance club.





    At the dance club we were holding hands, she put her arms around me and we even danced a little freakishly. I bought her a drink but that's it, got to know her a little. Afterwards we had our arms around each other like bf/gf and all and I got her # and we all hung out little more.





    When do I call her? She has lost her phone at the moment so call in 2-3 days? What do I say? Coffee date on Saturday? Yes No? Thanks.... :-)Relationship/Dating experts, I would LOVE your advice?
    wait 2 days, call her up and invite her to go sky diving or something else fun...but not the same old boring date of a dinner and movie.Relationship/Dating experts, I would LOVE your advice?
    well sounds like the date went really well!


    if she lost her phone- calling her would do no good... ask the girl that introduced you to tell you how to get ahold of her.%26lt;explain that she lost her phone if she doesnt know.


    Then call her or whatever later in the evening or morning.


    she obviously likes you dude, dont be afraid to show that you like her. And dont listen to that ';2 day waiting rule'; bullshit either lol she obviously is into you.
    Well if she lost her phone how would you call her? Call in two days if you can. I would do something that is different then the club scene so that way you can see this side of her too.
    call her whenever you want i dont see the harm
    If you're interested in her, then by all means, call her back as soon as possible. Let your girlfriends know that you like her and that you want to see her again. I'm sure they'll pass the word. Have them give her your number so she can call you when she can. Then ask her if she would like to go to the movies with you. If she says ';yes';, then maybe you can even suggest dinner too. Good luck to you! : )
    I think that you should wait 3 days after you two hung out. You dont want to sound to interested, that migh scare her off.

    Could you give advice on.. relationships, I guess?

    Okay so I've been dating this girl for a little less than 3 years, and honestly, I'm madly in love with her =P But I just got these feelings for this GUY friend of mine, which really confuses me.


    Does this mean I'm gay?


    What should I do?





    Any advice would be great, thanks..Could you give advice on.. relationships, I guess?
    I dont think it means anything...just different times in your life make you feel different things...i would just keep with your gf until you completely and totally know youre homosexual...until then, i would just keep loving your gf...

    I need advice about relationships.. (highschool)?

    So i'm still in highschool, but i'm in a pretty great relationship with my boyfriend. we spend every day we have together and were both very happy. we get along perfectly and wouldnt want anything to change. but now i dont know how long i should wait till we have sex. i want to wait.. but at the same time i dont. help?!I need advice about relationships.. (highschool)?
    I am in the same position. Talk to him/her about it, let him/her know where you stand and see what the response is. Sex is a very beautiful thing and if you do do it, just make sure you will not regret it in the futureI need advice about relationships.. (highschool)?
    thats a big decision.


    you need to be completely ready.


    know in your heart that hes the right one, and trust your instincts.


    im not going to give you the ';wait till marriage'; bull, because noone listens to that, and id be a hypocrite.


    but you need to know for sure that hes right, or atleast the one you want to give such a special gift to.


    wait until you know for sure, i cant stress that enough.





    also think about consequences.


    responsibilities,


    this isnt a little girl choice, this is an adult choice.


    just think about it.
    Sex will change everything. You dont sound ready. Don't do it. I've yet to meet a girl who has fond feelings for her 1st. Keep that in mind. They rushed into it when they werent ready and the guy turned into an A-hole.
    You will know when you are ready, sex doesnt always change things but sometimes it does but most of the time its for the better! Just go with your heart!
    Dear Allie,





    Do you want me to ask you to wait? Do you want me to remind you that you are saving yourself for your Life Partner? Well I am.





    The choice of giving yourself to your boyfriend will be a decision you will make that will remain with you the rest of your life.





    Dear Allie, what ever choice you make, just be sure, and don't get cornered to make the decision on-the-spot.





    Good luck with your decision.





    Anthony
    Sex will change your relationship completely, either it'll get a lot better or a lot worse...wait until you are completely ready. Your still youngthere'ses no need to rush. Once you lose your virginity, you cant get it back.....
    You should only do it when you are ready to do it. And also make sure your boyfriend wants to do it to. You should also consider how long you two have been dating.
    ask him wat he wants and share ur feelings
    Then dont wait the more u restrict the more its gana be harder to wait so just go with the flow
    I have the same problem you do.


    It just depends if your comfortable, and he is comfortable around each other and are both ready to do that in your next step in your relationship.


    You might want to talk about it first with your partner, thats what i did with my boyfriend and it helped a lot. and if your not ready to talk about that with him, that i dont think you are ready.


    if you do decide to do that, then make sure you are safe (:
    i am in the same situation butt i think you should wait cause something can go wrong and i guess it also depends on how long you've been dating too cause i'd be worried to gett pregnant so i would wait like i am;)
    The question you have to ask yourself here is this: Is this something you want to do now, or do you want to wait until you have a husband? What it really comes down to (and this is from experience) is that you will eventually have to deal with the fact that you might not marry this man. Doesn't sound too horrible in some cases, but what happens if you don't? Are you going to be ok for the rest of your life, especially when you have a husband, knowing that someone came before him? In some cases, it doesn't matter, in others, it can make or break a relationship. On another side of the cube is that sex can complicate relationships, and there is always, even if protected, the chance that you could have a baby. You need to decide if you and your boyfriend are mentally mature enough to handle ALL the risks involved and the emotional change you WILL under go. If this is something you're going to do, you need to sit down, discuss all the options that might come out of it, and what you would do in a worst case scenario. Then, finally, the true advice. If you have any doubts, any partial feeling that you might want to wait, that is usually your hearts way of telling you you're not ready yet.


    sounds like a lot for a high schooler to think about doesn't it? But if you really want to do this, and I can understand if you do, it is always best to be prepared.
    DON'T DO IT!





    There are way too many consequences. Believe me, I've got a friend that knows that very well from experience. If he really loves you, he will wait for you. I don't care if he's the hottest guy on the planet, he's not worth screwing up your life in high school for.

  • Any advice about love and relationships from married couples?

    I was watching this couple on TV who have been married for 25 years - they were dating for 4 years before they were married. They were giving a younger couple advice about it and some of things they said touched me:





    - the husband said in order to love someone, you have to love yourself and you have to LOVE and accept the partner's ';negative/weak'; qualities FIRST before loving the ';positive/strengths'; so then you will love the person more. He said girls will be moody sometimes and he learned to love and accept it and vice versa





    - Always stay positive, never give up on yourself and on your partner - DON'T LISTEN TO WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT YOU TWO ';who cares?'; - even when there are problems, (financially, situational, etc...) always stay strong and say, ';it's okay, everything's going to be okay..';





    WHAT DO YOU THINK? TRUE? CAN YOU GUYS ADD MORE? I APPRECIATE ALL THE WISDOM :)Any advice about love and relationships from married couples?
    Don't sweat the small stuff. Pick your battles. I realize that my husband can't put two dirty socks IN the hamper to save his life. Instead of having a raging battle every morning over SOCKS... I let it go and pick them up myself. In turn he realizes that I for the life of me cannot stop myself from trying on at least 10 different shirts each morning. :-) He bought me a special chair to throw them on, so they don't end up all over the room. Never start an argument with you NEVER or you ALWAYS. And never give the cold shoulder. You have no guarantee that when they slam that door on their way to work if they'll ever be back again. Let him leave with words of love (even if they're heated and forced- I've said ';Yea? Well I frickin LOVE you!'; I don't know how many times) You dont want to sit there crying and have to add to your pain with ';If only I hadn't said/had said '; And as for money fights-- unless one of you is going out and gambling, or buying big screens... relax a little. Its just money, you'll always make more. So what if she bought the brand name bread for 30 cents more... in twenty years, will it matter? Good luck!!!!Any advice about love and relationships from married couples?
    It's a bit simplistic but basically a very good foundation to build upon.
    That is some very good advice.
    it all boils down to respect. w/o that, you can't have the rest. when he says not to listen to what others say, he's very right. to many opinions can make you goofy.
    you just have to believe in the two of you, no matter what. its true that you have your partner for all their qualities,good along with bad. you don't have to always be right, you have to do what works for the two of you. always tell him you love him, always show him you do.
    Communication is key. You have to be able to talk to your spouse, and you have to be able to listen to them, as well, without getting into an argument over everything.





    If you can't even TALK about problems, there's no hope of RESOLVING them.
    My boyfriend and I have been together 8 years, and it's been an up and down roller coaster. If I had any good advice, it would be to make sure that you always talk through your problems. No talk = no resolution.





    And if there is no resolution, the small problems can get Godzilla sized, and then you have to work way harder to make things right.
    Yes. For TV writers there is a lot of wisdom there. When you are married you will do two things. Love them because of who they are, and love them in spite of who they are.

    Need advice about long term relationships?

    I've been with my girlfriend for over a year. She's definitely in to me, despite our problems (we broke up once). My problem is I can't pinpoint how I feel about her all the time. There are days when I'm really in to her, and other days when I'm sort of cool.


    I've had a lot of dysfunctional relationships in the past (usually where I'm into the girl WAY more than she's into me) but I remember a really passionate feeling towards the girl all the time. With my current gf I don't have that same burning feeling as often. Is that normal after being in a relationship this long (am I too accustomed to flings with flakes)?


    I only ask because this is my first serious long term relationship (I'm 22), and she's been talking about commitment a lot lately...Need advice about long term relationships?
    You could feel the way you do because in your subconscious, you might just be afraid this isn't going to last like the other ones %26amp; they turned into failures. And, there is that fear there nagging at the back of you mind. Don't forget too, when you're were younger, everything was all new %26amp; peachy rosey. You had nothing to compare a relationship with. Of course it was all exciting then because it was a new experience. I honestly wouldn't advise you to make a solid commitment until you are absolutly sure about her. Better you admit to a mistake now, than after the ';papers'; have been signed %26amp; the deal is closed so to speak. Just take it as it comes %26amp; see if time changes your feelings twds. her. See just how deeply you are in love w/her, if you really want this one to be the one you spend the rest of your life with. If you have any doubts, don't. But I'd say to give it time %26amp; a chance to see if she's the one. If you can't imagine your life w/o her being a part of it, then you'll know for sure she's the rite one. Just give it a few tests %26amp; you'll know for sure. All the best.Need advice about long term relationships?
    you answered ur own question i think... the reason is that u guys are thinking about this relationship as if it will last forever... its not wrong but u forget to have fun... its normal bt not so good... u should try to have fun and be lovers and partners too... u take it very serious and as i said its not wrong bt this makes u forget what it feels to be in love.. do something different spend quality time together not jsut being together .. make it special.. she's a girl and u r guy dont see urselves more as friends unless thats what u want... its not like u dont love her.. u r jsut probably scared because u kind of want this relationship to last and this makes both of u a bit stressed consiously or not..take a trip get drunk even hehe do something fun together... flirt with each other... live each moment u r together to the full and dont think too much about the future...





    best of luck!
    Long term relationship is good, in my opinion, because both you and your girl friend have ample time to discover each other as a person. I will not call your one-year relationship with your girl friend as long-term. You'll be amazed how much more you would know her after a year or two. And the same is true about you. The only time you can really make a commitment is when you have seen not only her good traits but also her shortcomings and despite that, you are still willing to marry her.
    go with your gut instincts. if they are not telling you that you can't live without her; try taking a couple of days to yourself; and see how you feel.





    if you still don't feel any spark; maybe it's time to move on; for both of your sakes.
    It's possible that you still have feeling for one of your exs if this is true,you need to sort them out before you and your current GF get too serious.
    i think its normal, you have been going out a long time and you have gotten close as friends as well as lovers so at times you probably just think shes cool and when your in the mood you want to kiss her more. think about your parents, were they always making out?? no. so enjoy your relationships and think about getting more serious, your not a teen anymore, you have to get used to long distance now, not flings.
    It is completely normal to have those feelings. You just have to listen to yourself, and when you feel like you don't know where you are at in the relationship, than take some time out for you, and don't hang out as much. If she is talking about commitment, and you just aren't there yet. Just tell her that your not looking that far in the future, and you are just living for the moment right now. If you continue to have less feelings for her, than maybe you should try a break again? Your 22, your still looking for who you are it's only natural to have the desire to explore what's out there, and maybe these feelings are trying to get you to be an individual for awhile, see if a relationship is for you. There is that girl out there that is going to blow you away, everyday, but you have to be receptive to that too. Don't stay with your gf now, because it is ';comfortable';

    Would living in a one bedroom apartment effect my mother and I relationship? and advices?

    I live in a one bedroom apartment bedroom apartment with my mom.


    Sometime I sleep on the couch if she is not working that night and is using the bedroom.


    Ever since we moved in things gotten harder between us. In the beginning it was ok, then we got into crazy fights every week, to atleast one fight every day and now she is saying things to me that she never said to me before. Such as:





    ';No... No. You're crazy, you need help';


    btw I NEVER called my mom crazy ever





    she use to say ';quiet'; or an ear piercing ';sh';


    but now she yells ';shut up'; to me.


    this would be when we're watching a movie and she always talk. I ask her ';kindly'; that if she can not talk.


    It just when my sister and I were little she would get angry if she ever hears that word anywhere.





    and


    ';I need at least a month away from you';





    I don't know. She tells me I am not appreciating and I love fighting her but that's not true. Well to me it seems. I mean I always try to avoid fighting her, I try to make thing better. From getting A's (I use to get D's and C's) to get into a good college all the way to little things in the apartment. But no matter what we just fight.


    Am I being selfish? My mom constantly buy things and I do appreciate them, atleast I think I do. If I didn't I would never do the things I said before. She said that's one of the big issues. I didn't know what else to do. So when she was giving me 20 bucks a few hours ago I told her I didn't want it. I didn't see the point. To me it seems like she just going to say I never appreciate the stuff she gets me anyways. She can't say that if I don't accept them anymore.


    I don't know, now that I said it it sounds like a bad idea.


    At first I thought it's cause my sister left and I had to deal with our mom 100%. But someone said ';one room? no wonder you get into constant fights with your mom';





    Is their any advice you can share? to make things a bit easier for my mom. I would always hear people say ';get good grades that's all'; but that isn't enough anymore. She's saying things that wants me to say ';I hate you'; or ';you don't know me you don't understand'; which is ridiculous... and I haven't said those things yet. I just want the fighting to stop...Would living in a one bedroom apartment effect my mother and I relationship? and advices?

    That f*ckup is unrecoverable.Please help need advice??? I really screwed up my relationship?
    FIRST THING FIRST, tel her before someone else does. And be careful about it.. Ive been cheated on and it was the worste feeluing ever. It bothered me for a year.. cause it was with my best best friend too.


    But be willing to give her a break, but let her know how sorry you are. and Be completely honest about it.
    sorry.... this sounds like its gonna have to be one of those tough lessons. you cheated on this girl, and now you regret it...but it doesnt mean you can have her back.


    maybe she'll understand and forgive...but if not, maybe you'll learn your lesson.

    I need an advice in trying to save my relationship of 11 months?

    My ex broke up with me 2 days ago, she told me that she don't feel for me that love that she felt before, i asked her if she still feel something for me, she said yes, but no like before, she told me that she wanted some time by herself, we used to be around almost 24/7, but we never did the same thing all over again, i really love her so much, and i don't know what to do, today i told her that i love her so much, and that when she find out that she took the wrong decision, to tell me right away, but she told me that she want sometime by herself, and maybe later we could talk, my fear is that she may forget about me, i asked her that we could be friends, and keep going to places, but she said not now!


    please help me in what should i do, advices, anything please, i really but really love her!I need an advice in trying to save my relationship of 11 months?
    Breaking up is so hard to do especially when you love someone so much the way you do... Sometimes though, a relationship really affects someone's life and it is very easy to start planning your life around that relationship or around your partner. This can be dangerous as if then the partners break up one is left with just pieces of a broken puzzle and it is really hard to build up a life again without the partner. I have just come out of a relationship where we were together all the time so I understand. It is really hard to deal with the emptiness that person leaves in our lives once they leave. It may not be as bad as you think it is - it might be purely a fact that she needs some time away from you to be able to think straight and understand what she really wants from life or whether she sees a future with you. I am going through exactly the same thing. I know this is not the thing you want to hear right now and quite frankly it's not what I want to hear either but the only way to win her back is to give her the space she is asking of you. Genuinely try to leave her alone. She will come back to you if she really loves you but in her own time. Just wait for her for as long as you can but at the same time concentrate on building your own life again so if she doesn't come back then you can start healing yourself. The more you pressure someone in a relationship the more they will move away! Hope this helps and good luck!





    I would appreciate feedback on my question pleaase as I am also trying to save a relationship:

    It sounds to me like she is trying to tell you as nicely as possible that it is over and she does not love you anymore.





    I feel for you as you are suffering but you need to let go. Your wish to remain friends may be possible but not now and if you try to force the issue it will just drive her completely away.






    She has probably lost that ';in love'; feeling (which happens to EVERY couple) and feels confused because she does LOVE you just not the passion that was there before. This is normal, and is a sign of a relationship maturing. It is just a matter of whether or not she will realize it. Give her time and space. It might be hard, but if you keep presuring her it will make her decide you are not the one for her. Good luck.
    If you keep on pondering on the feeling that you will be able to win her back by hanging around her then she may pull out away from you even further. So I guess you should do the following - stop seing her or spending 24/7 with her for a couple of days. See whats her reaction. After not seeing each other for 10-12 days, for example, see if she has any concerns on her face or if she asks you - hey, how are you, not been around? If she does, then make her feel that you are upset and having a hard time losing her. If she doesnt care, then just back off and start a new date with a new girl - cause you deserve the best.
    Give her time to herself. I know that's not what you want, but trust me, if you keep hounding her she will never come back and think you are smothering her. It may take a week, two, maybe 3, for her to decide for sure if she loves you enough to make it work. Maybe she just needs a break to figure out what she really wants. It's easy to get caught up in a relationship if you're together all the time. It is healthy to break for a while and if you both love each other enough, things will work out. And sometimes it's hard, but sometimes it doesn't end up like you want it to. Better to find out now then later on if you got married. I don't know how old you are, but you should just give her time and don't hound her. Good luck.

    I need some advice regarding me and my ex (relationship)?

    Well this can sound abit complicated but i do feel like i need some advice. Well i once dated this girl we went out for 3 months and this was my first relationship. This was last year. (she ended it)





    Recently me and this girl have been starting to get closer again i have told her how i feel and she likes me back. But i dont think this is entirely true for the fact when i am talking to her on a instant message thingo she never replies to me while i do know she is talking to other people. Usualy this wouldnt bother me but after hearing she likes someone else aswell i am starting to get worried. This goes the same for txting and all. I know this isnt such a big deal but i am stressing over it.





    I guess even if any advice for helping me get over her will be helpful and appreciated, i dont know to many girls who i see as someone i can date because i dont look at any of my friends that way.





    I know this is probably a stupid question or even hard to understand what im asking but any help about what should i do such as forget about her or keep trying to get her attention is appreciated.I need some advice regarding me and my ex (relationship)?
    First thing you need to realize is that YOU GUYS BROKE UP FOR A REASON. as bad as it sounds, she dumped you and broke your heart and it will most likely happen again. Realistically YOU already know the answer yourself, but because you like her so much, you want to ignore yoru intuition and go back into a relationship with her.





    The key point about a good relationship is communication. You need to realise the reason why she is doing this is playing HARD TO GET. you are being a SURE THING. if you want to put in some effort, and 'get the girl', stop talking to her for about 2-3 days and see if she tries to contact you first. A girl with her on mind 2 people, isnt really a good sign for a committing relationship. YOU DESERVE BETTER, men like you, who are so sweet and committing DESERVE BETTER, I say move on.





    The pain of getting over someone you desire isnt easy, it will feel weird and you will feel a chuck missing out of you, like a void in your heart. Only time can heal this. Try and go out with your friends. Although people CAN stay friends with exs, it is very hard if one person still has feelings. I suggest you cut off communication.





    Instead go out with your guy mates, a local sports game, the pub, or house parties are great way to meet new girls.





    HOWEVER, it isnt my choice to choose whether or not you stay with her. IF you DO choose to stay with her YOU have to not get her attention to get her attention. If she knows you are always there, she ill take you for sure and play you around, if you make her earn your love, she will appreciate it. Often as females, we appreciate things after we lose them and realize truly how great they really are.





    Good luck mate.I need some advice regarding me and my ex (relationship)?
    Well if you want to try and win her heart I guess that is still possible. See what she likes and try to make her happy. Be sweet to her, make her laugh, ask her on some date and she if she wants to.


    Best way is to just ask her out and work from there.





    If you want to get over her (Oh man....I'm trying to get over some guy too and I got over one..), that can be a good idea too because you never know who might meet. I was trying to get over this guy and suddenly (very raondomly) i met a new guy and he fancy me now..





    To get over him..it needs time seriously and you basically need to find somethin to distract you. I know how hard it is when you like her and CANT find anyone else to like. I know how crap it feels when she doesnt reply back on IM, it seems like she doesn't care...and when she doesn't really reply back by sms too. I guess think about why you two broke up in the first place and think how she might not be wanting to work hard for a good relationship therefore you wil may end again.





    Be careful, I hope she won't play around with you and try to flirt with the other guy too. You didn't tell me how old you are.. If you're at schoool..think about her as a distraction. Once it get serious...i mean 'serious', goodbye freedom. You might not be able to go out much with your mates , she might want to go flirt.... + you will have to worry about not seeing her and then you won't get any work done!!!!!





    Being single is not bad, you give yourself some freedom to experiment and meet new people. You don't have someone behind you saying, 'Uh WHY YOU DOING THAT???????? LISTEN TO ME!!! Do this do that for me';. You get what i mean....





    I'm single now and Im enjoying it.....................

    Any fun/helfpul advice for gay Cancer male in relationship with Scorpio?

    I am a 28 y.o. Cancer (with Moon in Aquarius), and my BF is a 26 y.o Scorpio (with Moon in Capricorn) for almost a year now. We both say this is the most mature, trusting, emotionally involved relationship we both have ever had. The sex is astronomical (definitely no complaints from either of us). We are completely different as far as interests and personalities. I am pretty laid back, quiet, observant, comical, and sensitive. He's more sociable, outgoing, confident and posessive. It feels though our opposite personalities are matching and attracting. But i'm always open to anyone's helpful, or fun advice if they are into astrology. Thanks...=)Any fun/helfpul advice for gay Cancer male in relationship with Scorpio?
    I'm a Capricorn and according to the astrology book I once read for friends Gemini is my best match and for romance it's Scorpio.The book warned never make a Scorpio angry;revenge is their specialty.You seem to have the perfect relationship.Enjoy it.Any fun/helfpul advice for gay Cancer male in relationship with Scorpio?
    Eeeek! I'm really surprised you both get along so well. Cancers are so moody and Scorpios are overbearing. No Cancer I know likes the spotlight, even though they love a good party. And usually Cancers are very maternal. I'm suprised the mother hen-ness doesn't get to him. But kudos! It's awesome when you find someone whol challenges you to be a better person. It's always great when you find someone you work well with. :)
    This is soo sweet! It sounds like you guys love eachouther..I have a gay uncle and is bf and him are the same way..Remember : Opposites attrack..
    get married this way you can be miserable like the rest of us

    What is your advice on a Lesbian Long distance relationship?

    I met this girl a year ago or so, and well we hit it off, when we first started talking she was completely against us ever having a long distance relationship, and I was okay with that.


    She lives in Ohio, and is in college there. I live in California and am attending college here. She asked me to be her gf 3 months ago and I said yes, now i'm just wondering if it's going to work. We never fight she tells me she loves me every day, we mail things to each other.. text all day.. My family knows about her, her family knows about me...





    SO I don't know, what do you guys think? Could it last?!





    p.s. She is 21 and i am 18What is your advice on a Lesbian Long distance relationship?
    just go for it, you'll never know until you try. Just because it's long distance, doesn't mean it won't work. You both just have to have good communication ad trust each other. Hope i helped...xWhat is your advice on a Lesbian Long distance relationship?
    Long distance relationships can only work with great communication and trust. I feel that it's not a good idea to have a long distance relationship unless you can see your partner at least once a month.
    awwe cute





    well it should work





    i mean my girlfriend lives in germany..and i met her through a friend


    so yeah it should work out..and i hope it does
    There is a SLIM chance it will work. You won't know till you try though.
    try it out.


    u never know it could work.(X


    try seeing her in person soon tho.
    go for it :) and meet in person as soon as u can
    My best friend is in a situation like that, except they used to live in the same town, and were later split up.





    She keeps insisting that sending gifts in the mail is one of the best things for them. They don't tell each other when/what they're sending, so it's a fun surprise they get every week or so. =D She's planning to go visit her girlfriend next month.





    They've been together for a year and a half now, with 10 months long distance.





    Edit: Also, they've kind of opened their relationship. They're realistic and they know that if one of them meets someone, they should get to date, but that hasn't actually happened yet. So far, neither has dated someone else. But they've already talked about the possibility, and you probably should, too.

    I need some advice/opinions on a past/present relationship...please!?

    About 3 months ago I guy I was seeing for 2 months and I split up...it was a very weird split up, it was wrong how it happened and things were said that shouldn't have been so it ended quite bitter. A month or so after we split up he texted me to ask me if I was still mad at him, I texted him back and said no...I had gotten over how thing ended, so I meant it. 2 weeks after that he texted me to say Happy birthday and so on and carried on a convo until he had to go in to work. Ok, no problem. 3 weeks ago I ran into him for the first time since we'd split up and things were great. We started talking again, no problem. After a while we were alone talking and he kept saying to me he wishes I would have told him how I felt about him while we were together because his gf now (his ex while we were together) wouldn't have been an issue and things would be very different now. He said he loved being with me and still does but she's ';got'; him...I said that's great I hope I have someone who ';gets'; me and he said no, it's not a good way. If I go down, she does too and vice versa, I have to do what she tells me...he kept askin if I was happy and this and that so I just kept smiling, not knowing what to say. Last week I happened to run into him again and he asked me to go with him on his harley for a ride, we ended up at two bars and got drunk. I asked him if he loved her and replied, hesitantly, with yea. I was upset, but stayed and ended up leaving shortly after. Apparently I had asked him to meet me at the bar later on last weekend (i had a lot to drink when we were out) and he ended up showing up, like I had asked him to. We talked normal again, no problem but then he started to get real weird. So when I left he left too and I called him right away and said why are you bein weird he told me to meet him somewhere, so I did. Long story short he said he had to be home at a certain time to ';make things right'; with his gf, but told me to meet him tonight at the bar....I went, but he didn't show up, at least not while I was there. I don't understand I've heard he's playin me which could def be true but I just have a gut feeling about him and can't change how I feel about him...please any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciatedI need some advice/opinions on a past/present relationship...please!?
    well dear,your guy already has a problem from the start,..theres nothing wrong with you as far as i can see.what bothers me most is that because of that feelings you have for him you let him play with you and its not right.stop hurting yourself,trust your instincts,trust yourself to what it say.but dont let him fool you around.teach him to respect you coz thats what you deserveI need some advice/opinions on a past/present relationship...please!?
    The guy has a girlfriend and is flaky.....no mystery there. Stay if you like drama, leave him alone if you have respect for yourself and find some one better.
    ive been in this situation before and i truely think the best thing to do is to move on... because i kept tryin and tryin to make things work with my ex while he had a qirlfriend but he loved her to much and i was jus that qirl on the side when he wuld fight with this girlfriend. you dont want that. you seem like a bright girl... you can find way better someone who will make you happyy and not lead you on,

  • I need some advice on how to better my relationship?

    I've been in a relationship with my childhood best friend for a year and a half. Things have been good but recently have been rocky. We are starting to verbalize what we need in a relationship a lot more, and I realized that there are things I need to do to change. My boyfriend says our relationship tends to get boring, the same old same old, he wants me to be more open to going out with his friends, he says we don't need to say ';I love you'; 24/7. At first I got defensive, as normally.. but now I realize that there are things I can do to better my relationship, any advice on how I can make these changes, and make this work?I need some advice on how to better my relationship?
    keep talking to each other.





    he's probably right, you don't need to spend every minute of every day together. you don't always have to be lovey dovey. you can also just be friends in your relationship.





    he's also probably wrong, you should be free to express what you do and don't like as well. there are two of you, not just his opinion mattersI need some advice on how to better my relationship?
    Three words: compromise, understanding, and acceptance.





    There are some things in every relationship that cannot be perfectly agreed upon. It takes some bending by both people to make it work. I would say you both need to keep talking with each other about these things and listen to what the other is saying. Relationships get ';boring'; when we adopt routines within the framework of the relationship. I think the best way to avoid these lulls is to work in times to do random things with each other. Set aside a night where you can indulge in a hobby together, try a new restaurant every week, etc.





    Best of luck.

    Pregnant and need advice on staying or leaving a relationship?

    im 6months pregnant with my first child at 35yrs old. i didnt think i could get pregnant so i was very shocked and happy! the father whom im with is 41yrs old and weve been together on and off since i was 19. weve decided to give it another try especially for the baby. we love each other so much but its so hard for us to get along for more than 2 to 3 days.my patience is a little better then his when it comes to us irritating one another. hes a scorpio so he hates to be told no and speaks his mind hurtful r not. which hes been really trying to work on. the biggest problem is were always in the house when were not at work hes a home body and it hurts my feelings when sme of my other girlfriends go out with their man. im attractive so i just dont get it im so depressed and its draining please help with some wisdomPregnant and need advice on staying or leaving a relationship?
    Are you always unhappy or do you feel like it could be some pregnancy hormones? If you have been together for that long, you should really try to work on your relationship, but in all honesty you are an adult and you should do what is best for you and your child and if that means not being with him anymore, than so be it.Pregnant and need advice on staying or leaving a relationship?
    You really need to talk to him about all of this. It's not healthy for you to be under so much stress while pregnant. Do you think maybe he's a little nervous because of the baby?


    Try to explain to him that now the 2 of you should do nice things together as much as possible because when that little one gets here, it's not going to be so easy!





    Good luck!
    for one you need to estimate the good days with the bad. if you have more bad days then good, i would leave. even though he is the father, you need to think what is best for you and your child. you cant be stressing out. pregnancy is meant to be beautiful and wonderful, so, if you cant enjoy it cause you are worrying, then leave. never let a man be the cause of your depression. its not worth it. you can love him and want him in the babys life, but you can do it and be happy. maybe you guys would make better friends then lovers. you can even be friends with benefits. under separate roofs though. whatever you choose, think wisely and use your gut feelings.

    Now that I'm an adult and parent I'm feeling torn about my relationship with my mean mother. Need advice.

    I am now 29 years old and recently seperated from my long-time boyfriend and the father of my 2 year old son. I was/am a full-time student persuing a nursing career and have been working on the classes to try to get into the program. I was totally financially dependent upon my ex when he decided to leav me. He's continuing to allo w me to stay in the home we purchased together (my name is on the deed/loan too, as I used to work full-time before having our son) but he pays the mortgage. I work part-time as a receptionist and have tons of applications in for full-time work. I'm realizing that I'm probably going to have to give up college soon and move out into an apartment because my ex might lose the house with the poor financial decisions he's making.





    My issue is my mom has been cruel and insensitive through this whole breakup. She tells me to ';get over it'; and tells me she will not let me move back home until I can get on my feet because she wants me to be independent.Now that I'm an adult and parent I'm feeling torn about my relationship with my mean mother. Need advice.
    You have to realize what she just said,she said that she is not';that kind'; of mother.You have to understand that this is just how she is and will probably never change.Just talk with your father he seems to love and support you and hopefully he is there for you.As for school you can just take a little break from it(your not quitting),put school aside till you can earn more money for yourself and the well-being of your child,after you feel the chaos has settled down for awhile then go back to school and finish your studies.Talk with your friends and siblings about your mothers behavior(just to make you feel better and get it off of your chest.)There are people that are there for you,your mother unfortunately isn't one of those people.And if she yells at your child and makes you feel unwanted when you bring him over then it might be time to seperate yourself from her and your interactions with her,because she seems to be a miserable and unhappy person.and you and your child shouldn't not have to tolerate that or be around it.Now that I'm an adult and parent I'm feeling torn about my relationship with my mean mother. Need advice.
    If it was me I would not subject my child to such a cold hearted unloving woman. Before you do anything check into financial aid where you go to school. See about grants and scholarships. There are different kinds and some could be for single mothers. Also see if you can possibly contribute to the mortgage where you're living so you have a place to live til school is done. When that house sells you should get half of it but if the house is lost so is the investment.


    Many of us had or have mothers that didnt care and were abusive and we have had to make it on our own. We also had fathers who stood by and let it happen. It is hard but you can make it. If it gets to the point you have no choice and no where to go, talk to your father and move in anyway. It isnt just all about her and your dad has a say in this too.
    sell the house ,get a student loan,finish nursing scool,and dont depend on other people.she will one day need you to change her diapers.now you won't feel so bad when you don't do it.

    I need some advice, I've got some simple relationship questions? HELP! Thank you so much!?

    This guy and I have declared ourselves boyfriend and girlfriend. We were pretty much together before that but now we are more serious, I guess. We are 15. This is my first real boyfriend, I like him a lot and he likes me a lot. I have a couple questions...





    1. How do I tell my parents, they're really protective.


    2. I don't feel comfortable going to his house when it's just going to be us and not a group of friends. How do I handle that and what does a couple do at ones house...besides, you know.


    3. We haven't kissed yet. Should I make the first move?


    4. How do I keep my relationships with my friends just as strong? Also, my best friend is a guy too and my boyfriend always gets mad and jealous. My best friend has to ask permission for us to go places and he gets mad if I answer my best friend's texts before his. My best friend is like my big brother, I love him to death, and we always tell eachother 'I love you!';, when do I have to quit that now that I have a boyfrie nd?I need some advice, I've got some simple relationship questions? HELP! Thank you so much!?
    1. you should have a talk with your parents telling them how much you guys are close and how happy he makes you. ( best chance is if he's there too. moral support)


    2. well if his parents are there you should be ok I guess, they hang out and watch movies, get to know eachother.


    3. for the kiss you should wait for the perfect moment, you' ll know when.


    4. first of all : being friends with a guy is always going to be hard when you have a boyfriend. make sure you are not attracted to your friend cause that would mess up everything, and reasure your boyfriend that he is just your friend, nothing more. he will not have any reason to be jealous. No do not quit that friendship, you just have to be carefull and reasure him, it's not his falut, he doesn't want to lose you he probobly really cares about you.I need some advice, I've got some simple relationship questions? HELP! Thank you so much!?
    1. break it to them easily preferably without him there.


    2. there is all kinds of things to do. watch a movie. play a board game. just talk and get to know eachother.


    3. you will know when to kiss him. trust me. there is a right moment.


    4. your boyfriend needs to respect that you and your friend are just friends. he should be able to trust you with that.
    I can only answer one of your questions, not having a boyfriend myself, not ever. One thing you can do at one's house is watch movies, or study dates
    Just a couple of comments that may be worth exactly what you pay for them.


    Be very wary when a guy starts acting as though you are committed to him when you are, in fact, just beginning a relationship. Having a boy friend does not make you more mature, wise, complete, nor anything else.


    Do NOT go to his house if you two will be alone. Being serious does not make him behave properly and a guy who is jealous (he is jealous when he gets mad because you are in contact with your best friend) is not to be trusted. Your boy friend will probably require you to not be in relationship with your best friend in order to keep him in your life. Most of the time, jealous guys get more jealous, not less. Jealousy will also probably lead him to criticize your friends and family--that is meant to isolate you. It is not good.
    well frist is first sit down wif ur mom and dad and talk to them tell them that they should trust really do they not have a reason not to tell them to unlock the chains holdin u down





    then go to his house because he wants alone time wif u or just plan a night out together and if u want him to make the first move then never ever do it around friends cause they can ruin the moment for u and him btw u can make the first move just alone no friends





    well break it to ur bf that its just a friend and nothin more tell him that u love him wif all ur heart and that if he loves you then he should trust you not to ever ever break up wif him for ur best friend no you dont have to quit ur bf is jus jealous but tell him that ur best friend is just a best friend and that he is more than hes ur gardian ur angel and love for life and that will never change =]

    3. you will know when to kiss him. trust me. there is a right moment.


    4. your boyfriend needs to respect that you and your friend are just friends. he should be able to trust you with that.
    I can only answer one of your questions, not having a boyfriend myself, not ever. One thing you can do at one's house is watch movies, or study dates
    Just a couple of comments that may be worth exactly what you pay for them.


    Be very wary when a guy starts acting as though you are committed to him when you are, in fact, just beginning a relationship. Having a boy friend does not make you more mature, wise, complete, nor anything else.


    Do NOT go to his house if you two will be alone. Being serious does not make him behave properly and a guy who is jealous (he is jealous when he gets mad because you are in contact with your best friend) is not to be trusted. Your boy friend will probably require you to not be in relationship with your best friend in order to keep him in your life. Most of the time, jealous guys get more jealous, not less. Jealousy will also probably lead him to criticize your friends and family--that is meant to isolate you. It is not good.
    well frist is first sit down wif ur mom and dad and talk to them tell them that they should trust really do they not have a reason not to tell them to unlock the chains holdin u down





    then go to his house because he wants alone time wif u or just plan a night out together and if u want him to make the first move then never ever do it around friends cause they can ruin the moment for u and him btw u can make the first move just alone no friends





    well break it to ur bf that its just a friend and nothin more tell him that u love him wif all ur heart and that if he loves you then he should trust you not to ever ever break up wif him for ur best friend no you dont have to quit ur bf is jus jealous but tell him that ur best friend is just a best friend and that he is more than hes ur gardian ur angel and love for life and that will never change =]

    I need relationship help....please read this and give advice??

    my parents are separated..they live in two different cities that are 6 miles apart. my girlfriend lives in the same city as my father...my father lives with my godparents but my girlfriend thinks that he lives in his own home...I told her that because i was really embarrased about what was going on with my parents..the separation and all...we've been going out for 2 months (Im 17 and she's 18)...and my parents have been separated for like 4 months...





    how should i tell my girlfriend the truth about my dads situation?? What should I say....how should I say it???





    (In person or on the telephone)???





    Thanks.....I need relationship help....please read this and give advice??
    I'd tell her in person. She might be a little upset with you not being honest with her from the start. First of all, your parents separation has nothing to do with the relationship between you and your girlfriend. If she has a heart, she would sympathize you and support you for having to deal with your parents separation. Its tough, I've been there. Whatever you need to tell her, just let it roll off your tongue. Be sincere, apologetic, and just be honest about it and explain why you were embarrassed. She might beat you for lying, but she'll love you for being honest afterwards. ( Maybe) GOOD LUCK!!I need relationship help....please read this and give advice??
    Go to her in person and just be honest. Fessing up isnt easy so just out with it.
    Just follow your heart and give time...
    tell her in person, but make sure you tell her it's because you were embarrassed...otherwise, she might decide she can't trust you or be upset that you couldn't be truthful with her. this way she wil have more sympathy for you
