When He Says “I Don’t Know What I Want From You”
Well hello there, manslatees. We start the week with a 3 month relationship in which the guy has told her that he “doesn’t know what he wants from her” and also he told her he loved her…but then apologized for getting “a little intense back there.” (For the purpose of this manslation, I’m going to [...]

More Male Fantasies, With a Twist…
Today, Donna writes in that her husband’s mind is wandering. Sounds like she pressed him until he told her exactly what the fantasies were, too. (Not literally, like, with a big stone or something. Though I think she probably wants to now.) Which…well, we’ll get to why that was probably not a great idea. She [...]

The 30 Year Old Virgin(s)
Interesting situation today. A reader named Susan is with a guy, they’re both in their 30s, both virgins, and after their first fight he’s pulled way back. Does it mean he’s out for good? What’s the deal when a fairly inexperienced guy has what may very well be one of his first relationship fights? Read [...]

When The Clock’s a-Ticking, but There Ain’t No Ring On the Finger
We’ve got one I’ve seen up close ‘n personal once upon a time. What happens when a woman and a man are together for a time, and one of their younger siblings gets engaged after having been in their relationship for about the same amount of time? (Hint: If you are the guy in this [...]

When He Says He Doesn’t Like You…But Only Sometimes…
We’ve got an on-again/off-again relationship to manslate here, folks. Mar has been trying to figure this guy out for 9 months or so, and it’s time to consult an expert. (However, since there isn’t one handy, she asked me.) Seems like this guy gets angry and bails occasionally, and then comes back for another round. [...]

Why’s He Acting So Sweet, So Soon?

I met this guy randomly on a train a few weeks ago, [...]

She Wants a Married Man…And She Wants MY Help!?
Well, it’s Friday, and we’ve got a good one. I know, because the reader tells us right in the first sentence of her request! And she ain’t kidding. She first wrote in a question, but then took it back a few hours later in favor of this question. She wants to do something taboo. She [...]

He Refuses to Sign Off the Dating Site…And So Does SHE…?
I’m a little confused by this one. Ladies, maybe you can womanslate part of the question for me. This woman is wondering why her man won’t give her an explanation for staying on dating websites. You know — the dating websites that she is also on. Still. But she’s ready to be exclusive. Should she [...]

Is She Kidding Herself, Or is There More Than a Fling Here?
Today, we’ve got a long one. Like, it’s longer than 2 manslations put together, and I haven’t even started writing yet. But as usual, the important manslatable tidbits can be boiled down to a couple of choice nuggets. What are these nuggets and tidbits? And why am I using terminology that reminds one of dog [...]
