In the moment he asked, I went on autopilot and said yes, although every bone in my body screamed no.

The spark was still there and there was no denying it, but it had just been so toxic we didn't want to hurt each other again.

Even when we live together for weeks upon end, we get along better than a dream.

... a big part of me wants to cultivate my relationship with myself in my 20s rather than prioritizing a romantic relationship.

Dear Meredith, I'm a bisexual woman in my first long-term relationship with my boyfriend of one year. I recently reconnected with an old friend from high school whom I had an intense crush on during my senior year. She ended…

While I know that I have to live my own life and be with the person who makes me so happy, I also feel like I am always missing moments.

I'm very picky and hate forcing things, but I know I’ve let some great ones pass without giving them a shot.

"How do I, in the midst of Covid-19, compassionately tell someone they’re fine, but this other person is better?" 

He is kind and loving and the love of my life, but my attraction has faded significantly.

He doesn't even come to bed until long after I have fallen asleep.

I also met up with an old flame. He's the only other person I've had sex with.

I am quiet and an introvert, and have spent my entire life without close friends.

While he’s putting no immediate pressure on me to get married and have kids now, I know this is something he can't live without.

The memories I have from the time – when he was falling in love with me – aren't as romantic as I wish they were.

I can't get over this person and I'm sure he doesn't even remember me.

I broke up with my fiancé who I'd been with for four years.

I know the grass isn't always greener, but I don't think that's what I'm dealing with here.

It is really toxic for me and my therapist agrees.

That's why I think the most frustrating part of this is the chance I never took three years ago.

I know in my heart I still love her.

I have been so free and independent, and now it seems like I have another person who is a consistent part of my life.

I've been with my boyfriend for a little over a year and our relationship is amazing. He's become my best friend and we rarely have any conflict. He seems like the type of guy I'd love to marry. The problem…

I certainly do not want to divorce my husband; he's been there through it all and loves me as best he can.

What do I do when I feel like apps have completely destroyed the dating landscape for 20-somethings like myself?

I feel so terrible and guilty about this because I know my current partner, "Jack," is the one.
