Q: I still love my ex, but he is engaged now. He still calls and texts me to say he loves me and how he wanted it to be me. What should I do?

Q: Ex and I were hooking up then I couldn't anymore because I still had feelings. He tried even harder until I got upset with him. He apologized and is still friendly, but I feel uncomfortable. Not sure where to place him in my life now. I know it's an unavoidable situation, as we have too many ties to each other. Help?

A: Two words for you: clean and breaks. Clean breaks, people. I've said it here time and time again, and your situation is ...

Q: How big a p*ssy am I for opting out of a friend's wedding because I don't want to have to deal with my ex, who will be there. He has known them longer, and I just feel weird because our relationship ended on REALLY bad terms and I haven't seen him since.

A: Not wanting to run into an ex for the first time after an ugly breakup doesn't make you a pussy. It makes you normal. No...

Q: Please be as wise-assy as you can if I need a reality check. I want my ex back. We ended on good terms, he wants friendship, we sometimes hook up, he still cares.

Q: WA - I broke up with my ex about a year ago. Have had no contact since. Would it be considered weird/creepy if I emailed him just to say hi? I really miss him. Not sure if I want him back as a boyfriend but I miss us just being friends. Thoughts?

A: I don't think that's a good idea. It's not weird or creepy as much as it is unfair to him. You broke up with the guy. Yo...

Q: I am in the same industry as my ex and I hate him. He burned me really badly, cheated and lied, so I want nothing to do with him. I don't even want to be cordial. How can I get around him when we have to see each other at these stupid company events without being a total bitch in front of my superiors?

A: First question: do you have to attend these events? Seeing this guy all the time just fans the flames of anger. It would...

Q: I kissed my ex's best friend after we'd broken up. It never went anywhere, in fact I was rudely snuffed. Now I'm back in contact and trying at friendship with my ex after a personal tragedy of his. Am I obligated to tell my ex what happened?

A: Nope. It happened after you two were broken up. Even though it's his best friend, it's still none of your ex's business....

Q: Does counseling really help? Have you ever tried it or known someone it has helped in a big way? I am trying to get over an ex (2 years later!) and hesitant to go because of financial reasons and also I feel like I know what they are going to say.

Q: An ex from two years ago recently tried to "be my friend again" even though I'm currently taken and live four states away. I told him I have no desire to stay in touch. He got pissy and told me I'd never learn anything in life if that's how I handle my problems. Am I being immature for wanting to stay disconnected?

A: No, you are being wise. We've had a lot of discussion here lately about staying friends with an ex; I know it can work, ...

Q: My boyfriend is very open with me about his last r'ship (dated 4 years, ended badly). He's almost TOO open about it. He always says how insane she is, and how he was a wreck after it ended. Why is he telling me all this?

A: Because it still bothers him, and that's what worries you. Of course he's going to talk to you about her; you're his gir...

Q: It's been over a year and I can't seem to let go. We try to be friends, end up cheating together, cut ties and then try to be friends all over. Addictive cycle. Any advice for a bad boy addict?
