What should I do about this?
My boyfriend trusts me completely and doesn't want secrets in between us, so he told me that when he was 11, he inappropriately touched his at the time 8 year old sister for a while until they realized it was wrong. He was homeschooled and his mom would rarely let him have any social interaction (so it's not his fault) so he never had contact with girls and was curious - there were no ill intentions, and he never forced her to do anything. It also never went beyond just touching with hands. He said that he and his sister had a long talk about it and that she forgave him and realized that it was due to their circumstances. He told me this because our relationship is getting serious and he doesn't want to hide things from me at all. I don't know what to think about all of this though... I know he didn't do it to abuse or hurt his sister, plus he was just a kid when it happened, and I know that he's not a bad person, but it's still an unsettling thought. He didn't have to tell me this, either, so I know he's not lying about anything - if he was going to lie about it, he just wouldn't have told me at all. Still, it creeps me out to know that he did this. I just want some opinions on how you all night handle the situation. Thanks!

My boyfriend trusts me completely and doesn't want any secrets in between us, so he told me that when he was 11, he inappropriately touched his at the time 8 year old sister for a few months until they realized what they were doing was wrong. He was homeschooled and his mom would rarely let him have any social interaction (just a messed up situation in general) so he never had contact with girls and was just curious - there were no ill intentions at all, and he never forced her to do things if she said no. It also never went beyond just touching with hands. He said that he and his sister had a heart to heart about it and that she forgave him and realized that it was due to their circumstances. He told me because our relationship is getting serious and he doesn't want to hide things from me at all, especially something so serious. I don't know what to think about all of this though... It's a really horrible thought to know that he did this, but I know that it wasn't because he is a terrible person or anything, plus he was just a kid when it happened. He didn't have to tell me this, either, so I know he's not lying about any of the story - if he was going to lie about it, he just wouldn't have told me at all. Still, it creeps me out to know that he did this and I don't know what to think. I guess I just want some opinions on what other people might do in this situation. Thanks so much!
2 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoWhat can I do to get over my fear of driving?
I've had my license for almost 4 years, and I've always been a careful driver, but yesterday, I got into an accident. It was rush hour and an 18-wheeler rear ended me when we were stopped in traffic. The back windshield shattered and the trunk was completely destroyed. I saw it coming, too, but there was absolutely nothing I could do since the traffic in front of me was stopped. I was checked out at the hospital, and I was very lucky to have sustained few injuries after being hit by such a huge vehicle. The thing is, I'm now very scared to drive. I have to drive that freeway for an hour each way for work every day but I'm so scared, mainly because the situation was completely out of my hands and all I could do was sit there and wait to be hit because I couldn't move. Does anyone have advice as to how I can get over this fear? I know it will fade away over time, but right now I'm just so scared.
4 AnswersSafety6 years agoWhy do I have burning during sex?
Every time I have sex with my boyfriend, it hurts me really bad. It's like a burning pain at the opening and then just uncomfortable further up in there. He is well endowed - his girth and length are both several inches above average, but no matter how slow we go, it doesn't change anything and sex always ends in frustration. I'm on birth control and we don't use condoms, I don't have any infections, we use plenty of lube, and neither of us have an std. I have itching around my vagina sometimes, but it's never severe. Does anyone know what this could be or have any suggestions?
1 AnswerWomen's Health6 years agoWhat should I do about the way my boyfriend acts?
I don't want this to sound mean, but my boyfriend thinks he's a lot smarter than me and it's annoying. He's very interested in history and politics, and he enjoys talking about both topics, but he always acts as though he knows much more about it than I do, but he doesn't. He was never properly educated due to insufficient homeschooling from his dad, and I was in all AP history classes throughout high school and took many history classes in college. He does know quite a bit, but it just grates on my nerves when he dismisses anything I have to say about the topic because he thinks his knowledge is superior. We generally don't talk about history, but since it's a big interest of his, it does come up on a regular basis. Again, I really care about him and don't want to sound mean, but this is just so annoying to me! Any advice is welcome!

2 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoShould I break up with my boyfriend?
We've been together about a year and just started seriously talking about the future. His career choice will force him to travel if he wants to make good money, so he would be gone for more than half of every year. I am really close to my family and would not want to travel with him, but he's put everything into this career and has been working towards it long before we met, so he's not going to change his mind about traveling, and I don't want him to give up everything for me. I really want to be with him, but I know that the long distance thing will not work for me. I'm just that type of person. Neither of us wants to break up, but we also don't think that we will be able to have a future, either, and it would just be harder to break up in the future when he actually has to leave. What do you think I should do?
Singles & Dating6 years agoWhat should I do since my boyfriend and I want different things?
So I've been dating a guy for about a year now, and we recently started talking about the future. We're both in our early twenties and finishing up school, but his career choice is one that will force him to travel a lot in the future. Within the next six months, he'll be leaving and will be traveling at least six months of every year for at least the next five, but possibly up to ten, years. He'll make a lot of money, but I want him to be here, but I also don't want to get in the way of his future. We both agreed that we don't want to break up, but I really can't picture myself having a relationship where he's absent for such long periods of time. We were talking about breaking up and agree that it's probably the best thing since I don't want that lifestyle and it will probably lead to the end of the relationship in the long run, but I don't want to lose him either. I know I would find someone else and that there are plenty of people that would be able to provide what I want from life, but at this point, I want to be with him and no one else. Any input on the situation is welcome! Thanks!
3 AnswersSingles & Dating6 years agoWhy is sex so painful?
My boyfriend and I started having sex about two months ago, and it has always been painful for me. He is rather well-endowed, with his girth being thicker than my wrist and his length a little above average, so I'm wondering if perhaps the size is what causes the pain? I have always been able to use tampons just fine, and I am able to put my own fingers up there, but when it comes to him putting any part of his body in there, it's just painful for me. I was a virgin when I met him, so I don't know if it's just a problem that I am experiencing with him or if it would be like that with other men. I know that lubrication isn't an issue, either, because we always make sure that I am very turned on before we start. This is putting a lot of stress on our relationship, so if anyone could help me out, I would appreciate it a lot!
3 AnswersWomen's Health6 years agoShould I give two weeks notice or just quit?
So I've been working at an ice cream store for about one week and already decided that I wanted to quit. The other employees are rude, I didn't receive proper training and am expected to do know how to do everything already, and there are some stupid company policies. Today, I had to call in and ask off because I had a horrible migraine, and then they told me that I am required to bring in a doctor's note when I wasn't even planning on going to the doctor for it. They made a big fuss over the whole thing, and I understand that it's the policy but I find it ridiculous. I am a college student saving up for my rent in the fall and don't have money to spare on unneeded trips to the doctor. I'm very fed up with the whole job and the people I have to deal with and just want to quit outright. I know that the manager has interviews lined up, so my quitting won't really put a damper on the business. I know it's technically rude to quit without notice, but I see no reason to show them respect when they've shown me none.
5 AnswersOther - Careers & Employment6 years agoHow should I handle the fact that my brother touched my younger sister?
So my brother (who is 22 now) and I were having a very deep conversation yesterday, and he brought up the fact that when he was 9, he inappropriately touched our younger sister (who was 6 then) for several months. I'm 9 years older than my brother, so I was out if the house when this was occurring and never knew that it was happening (neither did my parents) Normally, I would be extremely concerned about this, and I still am to an extent, but the thing is that my parents would not allow us to go to public school and we lived in a secluded area of the mountains, so my brother rarely had contact with any - especially girls - so he was curious. He told me that he realized it wasn't right but didn't realize how awful it was for a while. He and my sister talked about it, and he profusely apologized and told her that he never should have done it and didn't know that it was abuse. He also told me that she never told him no, but she also didn't know what was going on - not that that justifies it. Yet he was so young that I know that it wasn't a sexual thing and believe that he truly was just curious since he was so secluded and isolated, and he swore that he never had ill intentions and has not done it since and regrets it everyday. I love both of my siblings dearly and am at a loss for how to handle this. I feel like I'm maybe just making excuses for my brother since I care so deeply about him. I really advice and opinions on what to do and how I should proceed. Please help me out!
8 AnswersFamily6 years agoHow can I make myself less homesick?
So I'm a freshman in college and I just moved in two days ago, but I already want to go home... My roommate is nice, but we don't really click. And I have suit mates who I share a bathroom with, and we get along okay but it's hard to carry on a conversation with them. Basically, I just feel really anxious all the time and feel really out of place here. I know it's only been a short time, but I really miss my mom and sister and just want to go home. Everyone says that it will get better when classes start and I'm busier, but I'm just really on edge and unable to relax at all. I can't even sleep without waking up every couple of hours and feeling sick to my stomach. I have always been super attached to my mom, and I know that a big part of this is being away from here. Can anyone give me any advice on how to calm down and try to be more comfortable here?
