When, after the third date, somebody says, “You know, it’s just not working for me.” Go ahead and ask him, “Why not? Is it me?” Assuming, of course, that it IS something about you; you deserve to know. You can’t change what you don’t know. And you won’t know unless you ask. He might think you’re a weirdo for pressing him on details (for which you need to prepare yourself, by the way), but, hell… he’s not dating you anymore anyway, so who cares what he thinks, right?

I love this man with every fiber of my being, and he loves me. I hope he moves in with me by summer. But, if he can’t make the move by summer, how long should I wait for the man of my dreams? As it is, we are in a monogamous relationship, so I really miss sex, his sex particularly. I don’t know how much longer I can hold out.

Okay so for season two, how about Leo gets it on with one of the New York Football Giants? Heck, even a NY Jet will do. I’ll definitely help with casting. Here’s the finale, guys. Enjoy!

Marriage isn’t perfect. You’ll fight. Your partner’s friends and/or family might not love or even like you. But if you’re together, and you truly love and commit to each other, you realize that storms will happen. You don’t throw in the towel every time lightning strikes. You sustain the blow.

Your situation is a little like what happens when the cabin pressure of a jet airliner changes at 30,000 feet. If the plane starts to drop or a window pops out, oxygen masks drop from the ceiling. You’re instructed to put yours on first, which will afford you the clear-headedness to assist those who can’t do it themselves. It’s the same with you and your buddy.
Once you set priorities and find happiness for yourself, you’ll be better equipped to help your pal on his path to a better life.
