A reader asks: “After seven years with the same person, our relationship has become sexually stale. Some of our friends who are also couples say, ‘Try different and alternative sexual activities.’ Don’t you think sexual “alternatives” are cop-outs?”
A reader asks: “Why does dating always have to be so negative and draining? Isn’t there some way for getting through the daily sludge of dating?”
A reader asks: “My partner says I’m an addict and need help. If I drink a lot, but have a good handle on my life, am I still an addict?”
A reader asks: “I met someone at the bar who says he “wants to be with me,” yet doesn’t want to do non-bar related stuff together, not even a movie. When I confront him, he compares me to his abusive ex. Is there an unhealthy issue I haven’t figured out?”
A reader asks: “I hate first dates. Why would anyone put themselves through such hell as a first date?”
A reader asks: “It’s been five years, and I love my girlfriend. However, she’s selfish, and as time goes on, she gets less and less eager to compromise. I’m beginning to feel like a doormat. What can I do?”
A reader asks: “I met this guy at the bar and brought him home for some lovin’. Well he turned into a sex pig, spitting, swearing, choking and more. I’m not vanilla, but when sex gets too dirty or painful it turns me off. How do you know if someone wants a “scene” rather than just good sex?”
A reader asks: “As I reach middle age, my health, looks and sex appeal are dying out. Don’t you think dying before middle age is better than letting old age kill you?”
A reader asks: “I love one-night stands. But every time I say, “Wanna get together again?” they say, “Sorry, I’m in a relationship!” What’s up with open relationships? Is everyone married?”
A reader asks: “I’m not becoming a priest, but I thought I’d try celibacy. Do you think it’s a good idea?”
