In his defense, he's a gay man and probably doesn't know much about how women masturbate. Still, he's given advice on how to effectively have sex with women before, so this seems related.

Calling that logic is very complimentary of you.

This is the best advice.

It sounds like she's got some serious issues with sex, but it also sounds like you're taking the right approach. I definitely recommend that she continue with the counseling, and I also wonder if it wouldn't be a bad idea for the two of you to have a joint session, if that's a possibility. Is she specifically talking…

I had never heard of A Talking Cat!?! so thank you for this education!

My husband rarely leaves work before 6:30, and then it takes up to an hour to get home from work. If he was occasionally working late, I might suspect something, but since it's a usual thing, I don't. If he wanted to have an affair, I suppose he could leave work early and then go meet up with someone, but I also think…

I'm guessing the "friends" were more of the ex's friends than the caller's friends?

It's amazing how smart people can fall into scams like this. My grandfather-in-law once gave his credit card number to an obvious scammer, who claimed to be from his bank and wanted to "verify" his info. He even thought it might be a scammer, but figured it was safer to be sure, since he was going out of the country…

Yeah, that's true. Husband and I don't have kids, but we don't have sex often because we fall into the habits of our usual nightly rituals (usually one or both of on the laptop in bed, sometimes him working, sometimes me drawing, sometimes both of us just reading facebook). Eventually, it just becomes this routine…

Are you a big fan of history, or that particular era of history?

I've had a number of sex dreams with people whom I do not find remotely attractive in real life, or with whom sexual relationships would be…complicated, to say the least. Like, my married, unattractive boss. We had a good working relationship, but I did not want to have sex with him.

I had to give up caffeine and alcohol about 6 months ago due to a medical condition. I don't drink a lot, so that wasn't a big deal, but the caffeine was HARD. (Would have been a lot harder if I'd been working full time, but still hard.) I still have chocolate regularly, which is caffeinated (but not as much as…

This "rule" has probably led to a lot of broken friendships.

Yeah, unless you know that you can harm a person MORE than they just harmed you, don't react to violence with violence, or you're the person who'll end up in pain.

But they kind of ARE being discriminated against. Kind of like a person who abstains from alcohol or soda (I don't like Coke or Pepsi or sparkling water - I dislike carbonation) or caffeine or a number of other activities, a good portion of not only their friend's activities, but also pop-culture in general, is geared…

My husband's step-grandfather is 89 or 90 and has about 6 women he sees on a semi-regular basis, none of them seriously. He was married for many years and his wife passed before him, and he was tired of having dinner alone.

Yeah, I don't think it really needs a label, but I can understand the desire to try to put yourself into that box, both because others are labeling themselves, and because people want to have a group to identify with.

I've kind of felt similarly, so when I first heard the term, I identified with it a little bit. I'm not attracted to most people's looks, although I am capable of finding other people attractive. I need to actually talk to the person and get to know them before I want to get it on.

I read it as "tell them you're going on a 'date' but really just do whatever you want and he does the same." She's still living with them, but she has an excuse to get out of the house and get them off her back about having a boyfriend and being gay. Ideally the hypothetical gay guy gets the same benefit from his…

Yeah, that guy sounds like a jerk. He wants to sleep around but gets jealous when his partner does? Unless his partner is okay with that setup (and it doesn't sound like that's the case), the relationship isn't gonna work out.
