Successful woman's boyfriend whines about her job

This year I finally got a job that I love, in finance. I feel like all my hard work has paid off, and I'm finally challenged and appreciated and getting paid for what I deserve. I feel like a grown-up.

Woman should dump jailbird and get on with life

I had a boyfriend for about four months who is in another state. We kept in touch as best we could but things got bad when he called me from the "can" last month and we've only talked once since he got there. I sent him e-mails, text messages, etc. He never once replied to them.

Boyfriend wants his girlfriend to quit wearing makeup

I hate that my girlfriend wears makeup. She is such a beautiful woman already, and kind and smart and everything else. We've been together for two years and I love her more than anything, but the makeup bugs me. I tell her she's beautiful already and doesn't need it, but she wears it anyway.

In-laws show up at front door; intimacy goes out the back

I have a great relationship with my wife, who is one of the most loving people I know. She's very affectionate -- at home and in public -- until her parents come to town.

I am 35 years old, female, and a recovering alcoholic. I'm telling you that up front because I don't need you to refer me to Alcoholics Anonymous. Don't get me wrong.

Woman needs to make up with girlfriend, try online dating

I've been single a few months now. I ended it after four months. It was fun but heading nowhere. I’m mostly enjoying the time alone, but I’ve also felt a little lonely. I’m 29 and am ready to start a family.

Woman has second thoughts about leaving her boyfriend

A couple months ago, I broke up with my boyfriend of five years. It was really difficult. We lived together, we had two cats together, and everyone pretty much assumed we'd get married.
