Dear M,
So, you're pregnant from a 15 year old boy. I'll spare you THAT lecture. You have to tell him. Considering his age, he will be absolutely overwhelmed by the news. Plan for it. He needs to know that you will be supportive of him, just as you need him to be supportive of you. Do it in a safe environment. He will be emotional...let them pour out. Once the feelings have been realized, then the work of planning can begin. Work together, be together and you can manage the situation. Let me know how it works out.

Dear Courtney,
Hi--
I am haveing a little problem, I really like this guy that I work with and I was sure that he liked me, but then on Saturday, he ignored me and I called him and left a message and he hasn't called me back, I haven't spoken to him since Friday night and I wasn't sure what was going on so I went to his apartment and his car was there but he never answered his door. Could you tell me what might be going on? I am really sad these days and this is making me sader and sick.

Dear T,
It sounds like he may have felt a spark is now avoiding you like the IRS. He's not ready for anything more than friendship sweetie, move on.

Dear Courtney,
hey courtney,
my wife says she loves me very much, and i'm sure she does. the problem is that when we're in mixed company she always cuts me down somehow in front of everyone. does this have a hidden meaning? i ask her about it but she either downplays it or denies it. i'm frustrated as i do everything i can to make her happy.

Dear J,
My opinion is that your wife has a terribly low self concept. People who cut others down for sport, especially those close to them, are trying to make themselves feel superior. They pick on those close to them because they are "safe" targets. It doesn't make them feel better in the long run because of the incredible feelings of guilt and worthlessness that follow. You are right, I'm sure she loves you. It may take a professional, but if you can improve her self worth, the public insults are likely to disappear.

Courtney
