I am a happily married woman with school-aged children. I am also in love with "Steven," a man I knew back in college. Though there was undeniable magnetism between us when we met, I was already dating the man I later married. Steven and I had only a couple of nights of dynamic passion. After graduation, we had no contact until the Internet came along. For four years we've emailed and talked as lovers. We exchanged sexual fantasies about each other and even a few explicit photos. We live less...
I am a young woman who is single again after a nasty breakup with her ex. We divorced when he suddenly realized he was transgendered. He started the process of turning into a woman, but a few months later, begged me on his knees to give him a second chance. I did. When I found out "she" cheated on me, it was the final straw. Recovering from this traumatic experience took a long time, and I was convinced I function best as a single gal. That is, until a few days ago. I am a director of theatre...
I was in a five-year relationship with my brother-in-law's sister, and she left me for someone else. Over the years, I built so many dreams with her I still can't accept what happened. Then I met this gal who was my office colleague. She is beautiful, intelligent, full of energy, and a great sincere friend. She made me forget my worries and made me laugh. I was attracted to her and she was attracted to me, but neither of us confessed our feelings until she accepted a great job offer in another...
I'm deeply disturbed about my brother Ed. We're a family that's never gotten deeply involved in each other's problems. We're close but try not to meddle. However, I think Ed has reached a difficult point. He's been married for seven years, and it's been hard for both of them. Ed has been chasing a business dream that never paid off. He's the type of guy everyone admires for his intelligence, charm, and creativity, but he frustrates us all because he can never seem to focus. He's frustrated too....

I am having a problem in paradise. First of all, I am 22, he is 31. We have known each other for a little over a month. At first, he was more affectionate than I was. He felt a little upset I wasn't moving as fast as he was affectionately. Not that he was trying to be sexual, he just wanted cuddling, hugging, and kissing. For some reason he thought we were "two different people." He was unsure whether we should even talk anymore. I didn't see that! We had a long debate, and everything was good a...

My history with relationships stinks. I chose the wrong men because I needed to feel needed. I thought if I could fix them, they would feel so grateful they would give me undying love. I’m not making that mistake this time. The man I’m engaged to has nothing to fix. He’s perfect for me. Sounds too good to be true, right? There is one glitch. His ex-wife. They met when he was 18, and she was 23, and they had two children. In their relationship, she was the boss, and he did what she wanted. They...
I have decided to end a two-year relationship with my boyfriend and don't know if I am making the right decision. I am 32 years old and have never been married. My boyfriend, Brandon, has two sons from a previous marriage. Over the course of a year, we realized we shared many interests, and our relationship evolved into a romantic one. On our two-year anniversary, Brandon made it clear he wants to marry me. Although he brought marriage up before, I never gave him a strong indication that I...
She still calls my husband when I am not at home. She seems to want nothing from him, but she is calling, calling, calling. They have little to talk about. He never confides in her, and he never calls her. She calls three times a month just to ask how his life is going. This is getting on my nerves. I have nothing against this lady, and if she wants to be a family friend, that is fine with me. When I discussed these calls with my husband, he didn't seem eager to change the situation. It seems...
I am a "young" 52-year-old woman living with a man who is very successful in business. He is five years my junior, and we have a history. We were together 15 years ago before I walked out. Since then he has married and divorced, and was involved with another woman for four years. He says she is now just a friend, but I called her and she tells a different story. She wants him back. To add insult to injury, I find out he has been in touch with his ex-wife who lives an hour away. After living...
I was friends with Sally for nearly 10 years. She was my best friend, and I assure you it was a purely platonic relationship. When I married, Sally and my wife became best friends. Sometimes they did things together, sometimes all three of us did things together. A while ago I noticed Sally drifting away from me. She stopped returning my phone calls and emails. When I questioned her, she offered flimsy excuses like she was busy or couldn’t reach me. One day I emailed my wife at work that I thoug...
I would like to ask you about alienation of affection. Is there such a law? How hard is it to prove, and what are the penalties? I have been married four years and recently caught my wife cheating on me. I forgave her and tried to work things out, but unfortunately she moved in with her lover. They have been together two months. My wife is from Russia, and I believe she used me just to get her green card. Mutual friends have told me so. I have considerable property. Can I get an annulment? If I...

I have male friends who are just friends, but my husband is so insecure about them it is driving me crazy. A year ago Christmas he took our children to visit family out of town. I could not go because of work. While my family was gone, I invited a male friend to go to Christmas Eve service with me. I told my husband, and he had no reaction. Six months later my spouse complained I was spending too much time with other men. He insisted I have one of the children with me to act as a chaperone. A...
Last year my wife and I separated and nearly divorced because she had an affair. Since then we have been in therapy and are now happier than any time in our 15 year marriage. During our separation, I slept numerous times with a co-worker who is a close personal friend of my wife. My wife doesn't know about this, and our friends and family are still persecuting her for her affair. The woman I slept with still works with me, but our affair is never discussed. She and my wife get together for a...
I am a 17-year-old male. I have been dating a 16-year-old girl for three months. I am sure we are both totally in love, but I am confused on a few things. First, let me say I know we are too young and too new at the relationship thing to just jump into sex. I realize this. About a month ago we had a talk. She wondered why we never messed around and feared I didn't find her attractive. I had kissed her on the lips, but I never really kissed her. So I told her the truth. She is beautiful! I...
I am 50 and was married to my first husband for 18 years. We had one daughter. Most of this time I was a housewife or worked in a family business until it was sold. For the last 10 years of our marriage, my husband was a frustrated, unrecognized "writer" waiting to be discovered. I decided to wear the pants in the family. When our daughter entered junior high, I went on overseas assignment, was swept off my feet, and within two years married my second husband. He is from the Middle East and a...
My husband recently asked me for a divorce. I don't want one. In the past he told me things he would like us to work on. Time went on and I thought everything was going great. Then he came back from a three month job-related trip and acted distant. Days went by and there was no talking, so I snooped in his email and found love letters from another woman. I confronted him. He told me he wanted to leave me, but not for her. We have two kids. I think we can work things out, but he doesn't think...
I am a 31-year-old woman who has been married eight years. I have one daughter who is the most important thing in the world to me. The second most important person to me should be my husband, but he's not. Quite a while ago we drifted apart to the point where we were two strangers living in the same house. At the same time, I became friends with a man at work. He is also married. We spent quite a lot of time together over the last four years, and have enjoyed each other's company. Even though I...
For about three years my wife has been working late and staying out until three or four in the morning with her coworkers. During the past four years, I have had four major operations for cancer. I am fine now, but it seems like the only time we see each other is when she leaves for work in the morning. About two months ago I got a phone call from a lady who said her husband was sleeping with my wife. I didn't believe it. She said she had proof, but I still didn't believe it. My wife denied it,...
Why do I want to stay in a relationship that makes me so unhappy? I have been with my boyfriend for two years. Over the last few months the relationship has rapidly declined. We are spending less and less time together (his choice), and the time we do spend together we argue about the way he is treating me. One minute he is loving and caring, the next cold and hurtful. His confusing behavior is causing me to act out of character. I feel I am turning into an emotional wreck. My partner now says...
My boyfriend of one year and I moved in together. We are both 34. I am single, and he is divorced with a 7-year-old son (split custody). The relationship between the three of us is fine, but now I'm worried about my relationship with my boyfriend. We're having a terrible time communicating. Since I moved into his home, my boyfriend has stopped cleaning up the way he used to. Before I moved in we discussed finances and sharing responsibilities around the house. Now it's like he has completely...
I am a legally separated man who is going through a divorce. A friend introduced me to his girlfriend about a year ago. We immediately took to each other, but until a month ago, we didn't realize how the other one felt. I was happily married when we met, but my wife fooled around on me so we split up. Anyway, I started talking to my friend's girlfriend. While he was away for two weeks of job training, we began seeing each other. We both want to be together but don't know what to do. She is four...
Well, that's it! I have had my heartbroken for the last time. I give up on love. I'm sick and tired of women. One minute they love you and the next minute they don't. I just don't get it, so I give up. I have thought about this for a long time. Who needs this garbage? Well, I did, but not anymore. Thanks to everyone I gave my heart to and who threw it in the trash. If it is meant to be that I spend the rest of my life alone, then so be it. Being alone and happy with myself has to be better than...
