  • Sexual Incompatibility

    Q: For the past six weeks I've been dating a guy pretty consistently. We haven't said anything about being exclusive but with as much time as we spend together, I'd be surprised to find out he was seeing someone else. I could be wrong but I think it's safe to say there's a good chance this turn into something serious eventually. We started having sex about the third week in and so far, so good. He's pretty good at what he does and I'm…

  • Long Distance

    Q: Six months ago my boyfriend moved from NYC to Los Angeles for a job. We’ve dated for years so I knew for a while that that was his goal after graduation. We both decided to stay together and make it work though because we’re so good together. But it’s been so much harder than I thought. He has crazy hours so we talk mainly on weekends instead of daily like we used to when he first moved. The first four months we saw…

  • Taking a Break

    Q: I've been dating my girlfriend for about two years. It's been pretty solid except for some heated arguments.

We were supposed to go out last Friday but she cancelled. I called her the next day but she didn't answer. She texted me saying she was busy and would call back. She didn't. I called her the next…

  • Boyfriend’s Emails To Ex

    Q: I accidentally stumbled upon my boyfriend’s email account because he forgot to logout and I opened the application thinking it was my account. His inbox had five emails to and from his ex. My heart started pounding because I already knew what I would see if I opened them. I was right. He was telling her that even though he feels happy with me, he also feels like he hasn’t fully moved on from her. She replied that she was confused and didn’t believe him because…

  • Roommate Hook-Up

    Q: I just moved to NYC over the summer and now live in Brooklyn with 3 other roommates. Everyone seems to get along and we haven’t had any major problems. Three of us are girls and there’s one guy. A couple of weeks ago all of us had a game night and we were drinking, playing Taboo, just having a good time. We invited other friends over so it was pretty crowded but I noticed my guy roommate and one of the female roommates…

  • Don’t Want to Sound Like Shallow Jerk

    Q: I don’t want to sound like a shallow jerk but maybe that’s what you’ll tell me I am after you read my question. I recently started dating a girl at my job after almost six months of pursuing her. She’s about eight years older than me (I’m 23) and a new divorcee. She was very hesitant to start dating again, especially some at work and so much younger than her. Finally she accepted a date and since then we’ve gone out a few times. Last week was the…
