It was just kissing, supposedly.

I met my ex on Tinder two and a half years ago.

I know I deserve a man who's fully committed and caring.

Hi Meredith, I've been divorced for six years with no kids. Dating after my marriage was tough for me, but I finally met a great guy a year ago. We matched on two different dating sites. One said he was…

Do guys ever say they feel they don't deserve you out of insecurity?

To start, this friend really dislikes me.

He is also 21 years old (1.5 years younger than me).

Is it some sort of "complicated grief"?

I think the proximity is part of what is making it hard to forget him, knowing he’s is back for the summer and in my hometown.

She knows it; I don't hide the fact that I would still date her.

It hurts not saying it, and I want to move our relationship forward.

I got distracted petting the dog instead of initiating a conversation.

I have a list of things I value in a person and he checks off everything except one.

I don't like my husband. I love him and care for him, but I don't like him. The reason? He's very defensive. If I approach him about things that bother me, he takes it as disapproval and gets ticked off.…

There were a lot of commenters with great advice and to all of you, thanks so much!

Hi Meredith, Lately I've had a bit of an issue with dating apps. I've been on a variety of apps for about three years now, but have only found success on Hinge. That is, I go on dates pretty frequently…

We can only see each other for a couple of hours every other day.

I always thought it was just puppy love and that I would just get over it or meet someone new.

Later, after he found out I had spent the night with someone else, he called and said he thought about me a lot and worried that he might not find someone as great as I am.

How should I frame my situation, and how much do I share up front?

Am I saving myself (and the women I might date) the difficulty of a crazy schedule, or am I selling myself short?

Hello,  I’m 21 and married. I have known my husband for almost seven years, and we have been married for almost two. He is in the Navy, currently heading out to deployment. Our marriage was great in the beginning. Ever…

He says he's tired and doesn’t want to stay up late or spend the money.

I just started dating this guy I work with. I always said I would never date a co-worker or someone younger. Well, he's both of those things (he's two years younger) and we have been dating for two months now.…

I know people suggest talking finances and children before considering marriage, but what do you suggest talking about before trying again and moving for love?
