I want to break up with my fella

Dear Deidre I NEED to break up with my boyfriend but I just don't know what to
say.
We're both 15 and we only been going out together for a month (nearly) but
already I want to break up with him.
He's loud. Annoying. Clingy. He's bites my neck really hard and doesn't even leave
a hickie.
And he practically pushes his tongue down my throat.
He wants to meet up everyday and I hate it.
He says that the only way we wouldn't be a couple is if I ended it.
I so want to end it but I also want to stay friends with him. I don't know how to go
about ending it. I don't know what to say.
Please help me because I want to do this soon.

Wife’s pregnant, but I want lover


Dear Deidre My wife and I got married two years ago, when she was 26 and I was
29. I have had plenty of girlfriends in the past but time was going on so, when my
wife suggested we get married, I thought "Why not?"
Then I started working on a contract at a new company. The manager's secretary
helped me get to know the ropes and we spent a lot of time together. The
attraction was pretty much instant. We started an affair and it was like nothing I
have ever known. I fell in love with her almost immediately. She is nine years older
than I am and separated with a son of 17, but she is the best thing that's ever
happened to me.
I have been trying to work out how to tell my wife I want to leave. Then last week
she told me the doctor has confirmed she is two months' pregnant.
I'm desperate. I want to be with my lover not my wife, but what can I do now she's
pregnant?

I was a fool now want wife back


Dear Deidre I'm 35 and my wife is 34. I was unhappy early last year because my
wife hardly ever wanted to make love. She said she was tired from looking after the
children and I didn't understand. I just thought she was boring. I started going to
the pub whenever I could and I met my girlfriend there. She gave me great sex and
also the chance to get away from my marriage, so I left my wife. At first things
were great. I felt guilty about leaving my children but I ignored it. But they all
enjoyed Christmas at home while I had a dull day with my girlfriend. It made me
realise what I have thrown away. I am broken-hearted. My wife divorced me and
this has hurt me so much. I know I have been a complete fool. I still love my wife.
She was a wonderful wife, and I didn't see it. She says she will never have me back
and who can blame her?
A. You must sort something out with your wife, and quickly. If she is likely to be a
single parent, she has some important decisions to make. Tell her the truth and ask
yourselves if there is any chance of getting the marriage right. Organise some
Relate counselling asap. In the meantime, tell your lover what you are going to do
and ask her to give you the space to sort this out.

B. You're right. Once you know a guy's not right for you it's best not to keep him
hanging on. It's not easy of course but next time you see him say something like,
"It's been good going out with you but I don't think we're really suited". Tell him too
that you'd like to stay friends.

C. The very least you owe your girlfriend is honesty. If you don't want to stay with her,
tell her now. Sort this relationship out before you turn your attention to any
thoughts of getting back with your wife. Her insistence that she won't have you back
may be a defence against the risk of getting hurt again.She's understandably angry
but, if you can convince her that you have learned your lesson, it is just possible she
may think again, especially for the sake of your children.
