MY QUESTIONS
MY ANSWERS
  • I go with the crowd on this one, sweetie! This is one where you need to make a decision. If you are alright with your boyfriend going to a strip club, then accept that more than likely at least one of the men in the group tipped a dancer. This is harmless, but he may not feel comfortable sharing that with you. If you feel like he did something inappropriate - meaning cheating - then that is the real issue. If you trust him, then show him your trust. Make sense? Warm Regards Heidi Lee SEE MORE

    POSTED ON: he said nothing happened ...

  • I think this answer lies within your definition. The likelihood of your boyfriend planting a tip somewhere on this woman's body is high if he consiously goes to a strip club. That is the point of of going. In fact, let me pull out truly liberal Heidi Lee and let you know that tipping the dancers is a common courtesy, and these girls - no matter their stories - need the money. Do I believe that because he tipped a stripper that anything happened? Not at all. The question is not - "did anything happen?" The question needs to be more specific to your definition of "anything". If you don't care that he went to a strip club - you are likely confident enough with yourself to know that nothing really did happen. He and his buddies were just being boys. Has this man ever given you a reason not to trust him? If so, then you may need to be asking a very different question. If; however, he was simply on a weekend getaway with his buddies, I would let it go and assume that the two of you have different definitions. Sweetie, there isn't a wrong answer to how comfortable you are with the strip club situation - you have every right to feel how you feel - from liberal to conservative. The important thing is that you feel good knowing that you are with this man - and that you trust him. Make sense? I do hope this helps. I've actually lived your experience myself and found that the situation was harmless. Warm Regards, Heidi Lee SEE MORE

  • Dear BM Cycles, A relationship must go both ways, and you sound like a loving person who is deserving of affection - not to mention respect and love. I don't know that I would say she is using you, but she most certainly is not treating you as you deserve. How long have the two of you been together? Kind Regards Heidi Lee SEE MORE

    POSTED ON: is she using me

  • Love it or hate it, online dating is a whole other world of communication. When you've grown accustomed to emailing, someone needs to break the pattern. True that he should have followed up your live meeting with a phone call, but reaching out with an email may have been his way of testing the "after face to face" meetings. Can you send him an email response stating that you would enjoy seeing him again and you would love a phone call to catch up? The challenge is that when we set our expectations without sharing them, people are destined to let us down. The lack of response could indeed be interpretted as a lack of interest in a simple case of Boy-Dumb communication standards. Let me know how this works out for you. I wish for the best! SEE MORE

    POSTED ON: Loss of Interest or ...

  • Reading through your question, you have a good understanding of what you need to Ready Yourself for love - confidence in yourself will draw love to you. And from further investigation - you seem like a lady full of ambition - Great Start! Recognizing that you don't have time to be out means that you are working hard on meeting personal goals - school, work, and now self-improvement! Nice job! I'm already seeing something beautiful about you - even if you haven't yet noticed it yourself. I'd bet you have lots to offer someone and just need to figure out where he is hiding. SEE MORE
