Dr. Love and Deb Auchery
"We flirt all the time at work and give
each other looks."
Dear Doc and Deb:
My girlfriend is going home for the summer and I’m
staying here. She wants us to try a long distance relationship.
I told her I’d try, but I want to enjoy my summer and I know
it will not work. What should I do?
Doc Says:
Just break it off or a better way to say it is: “Let’s
put things on hold.” Once she returns to school you can try
to work things out, if that’s what you want. Don’t let
her think you’re going to be faithful, be honest to her and
yourself and enjoy your summer.
Deb Says:
So, you can’t enjoy your summer without honing in on the hotties?
Well, obviously you aren’t much into your current girlfriend
and you sound like the kind of lame-o who can’t be honest,
since you’ve already told her you would “try,” knowing
that you won’t control yourself. So, here’s what I suggest:
Play it by ear (which is probably what you’ve been doing anyway)
and either have fun, never tell your girlfriend and live with your
‘player’ ways or when you find the next victim tell your
current girlfriend, “I tried.” If you choose the first
option please remember to play it safe and USE CONDOMS don’t
put your girlfriend (or yourself) in jeopardy, just because you
want to “enjoy” your summer.
Dear Doc and Deb:
I am in love with a married woman, or at least in lust. We flirt
all the time at work and give each other looks. I never thought
too much about it, but then she gave me her phone number. She told
me her husband would be out of town for a couple of weeks and that
we should hangout, outside of work. I’m not sure what to do.
Doc Says:
Sounds like she needs some comforting. You better be careful because
you’re walking on dangerous ground. Call her with no expectations,
if she wants you, let her make the moves. Don’t go and get
yourself in trouble.
Deb Says:
This is such a tricky situation and altogether too common. My advice:
steer clear and don’t get involved in her marital problems.
Dear Doc and Deb:
I slept with my friend’s girlfriend. I know it was a bad thing
to do, but it happens. I want to tell him and come clean but am
not sure it is the right thing to do. I feel like sh*t over the
whole thing and just want things to go back to the way they were.
Doc Says:
Sounds like it’s to late for things to go back to the way they
were. You should be honest with your friends and hopefully he’ll
understand. Don’t be surprised when he explodes. But why put
him through that just so you can feel better? That’s selfish
of you. I guess that’s the bed you’ve made yourself, so
now you get to sleep in it.
Deb Says:
You suck and your friend’s girlfriend sounds like a sketchy
girl. If you are truly his friend the best reason to tell him the
truth, is to get him away from a girl that is not faithful to him.
As for you, you can apologize profusely and hope for the best…after
time he may be able to forgive you, but you should be willing to
accept any and all consequences. Also, you would be wise to stash
in your memory how you feel about “the whole thing” and
remember it the next time you start scopin’ on your homies
honey.
