What's Going On?

I'm casually dating this guy, but I don't really know where it's going, or what his intentions are, and it's driving me crazy. I met him briefly a few years ago through mutual friends, but we never hung out or exchanged numbers or anything, because I was in a long-term relationship at the time.

Give Advice: Should I Be Worried About My Guy's Female Friend?

My boyfriend of almost 7 months has a female friend that he claims is like a sister to him, but they way that they communicate, he talks more to her than his own family. She will call or text really late at night and sometimes the entire time I am with him. I live in New York for school and he lives in my home state and I wouldn't mind the texting so much if we didn't live in different states and got to see each other more often.

Woman after my husband, how can I make her stop?

Friends with Benefits?

Basically my best guy friend and I decided to do this friend's with benefits thing. The only problem is.. we both have feelings for each..other. ..but before engaging in any activity.. he said that he had feelings for me...but..was not wanting a committed relationship..which I understood because I am not necessarily trying to jump the gun myself. A couple of years back, we were on the verge of a serious relationship, when I turned him down..for fear of getting hurt.
