Apr21 INTERGENERATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS
Sure, you may tell your friends that your new girlfriend is a few years younger, but once she whips out her license, it’s certain there’s a Grand Canyon sized generational gap. What do you do? Do you panic? Do you downplay the age difference? Or do you decide to celebrate feeling connected to another person?

Mar12 INFIDELITY...NOW WHAT?
You just found out that your partner has cheated on you. Maybe it was their distant behavior that tipped you off or the late nights coming home, whatever the clues were, it happened, so what to do now? Once a person learns of their partner’s infidelity they can feel shocked, physically ill, angry, sad, and a great loss for what they thought the relationship entailed.

Feb12 HAPPY RELATIONSHIPS 101
It’s no secret that happy people, happy families and happy relationships don’t make headlines. They don’t sell magazines and people don’t flock to twitter to learn that Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson are still happily married. Perhaps for these reasons happy relationships are commonly overlooked in today’s society. We focus on what doesn’t work, on failed relationships, and we often hold idealized views of how people in relationships “should” act.

Dr. Frankie's Love Seat

Confused and in Love

Dear Dr. Frankie,

I have been "taking it slow" for a month and a half with a girl that was previously my friend. Several months ago she got out of a seven-year relationship; I know she still has feelings for her ex. She also slept with another close friend almost two moths ago. She used to always tell me she wants to be with me, but she treats the other girl she slept with like a princess compared to me. She recently got evicted and is living with her ex. She doesn't talk to me as often as she used to, and we live two hours away from each other. Ever since her best friend kept pushing her to ask me out she's been pushing me away. I know she has a lot on her mind right now with the eviction, but she can't tell me if she still wants to be with me or not. She keeps her feelings so bottled up it’s hard to get her to talk to me about us. Does it sound like I'm wasting my time? Should I stick it out and just try to be there for her until it’s over and she can figure it out? By the way she's never been in a relationship with someone who didn't cheat on her or beat the crap out of her, so she's not used to someone treating her right. I think that the idea of being with someone like me who can treat her right actually scares her—and ultimately makes her push me away.

 

Dear Confused and in Love,

It sounds like you are interested in someone who has a pattern of dating women who are emotionally unavailable. By this I mean women who are unable to love and care for her in a healthy way. People repeat unhealthy patterns because they are familiar and comfortable, even in spite of their better judgment. It seems as if this woman does not feel that she deserves anything better than what’s she’s experienced. The fact that you treat her well is unfamiliar, which means less comfortable, to her even though it is the healthier choice.
