Asking Sunshine! Hi Sunshine, I have been really close with a female for the last 3 years and she didn’t know I liked her a lot. I decided to tell her recently and she told me she wants to stay friends. I know that I am her type of guy; we enjoy the same things, I can make her laugh and when she is upset or hurting I’m the one there. When she is talking about her life, dreams and the type of man she wants, I know I can be her man and help support those dreams. What should … Continue reading Asking Sunshine: The Friend Zone!
Asking Sunshine Hey Sunshine, I am about to blow your mind, because I’ve got a bunch of stuff going through my mind at this point. I hope you can help. I recently met this dude on Twitter and we’ve been exchanging direct messaging for a few days. I’m not delusional and won’t claim to know him at all (I only know what he tells me about him). I know it could be a lie. Here is my issue, sis, I think I would like to have sex with him. He sends me photos of himself kind of naked and it … Continue reading Asking Sunshine: Considering Casual Sex
Asking Sunshine Hey Sunshine, A co-worker recently set me up with their friend through Facebook. However, once I looked through his photo albums, I noticed that he has a small child. I don’t date men with children (too many horror stories) and I’m just not trying to take those issues on. I have two questions: 1. Am I wrong for not wanting to date a man with children? 2. How do I word this gently without hurting the feelings of my co-worker and his friend? Dear Dating Preference: No Kids OK, let me start by saying that everyone is allowed … Continue reading Asking Sunshine…Dating Preference: No Kids

Asking Sunshine I’m a 32-year-old married woman. I love my husband of 6 years, but recently I found myself attracted to my husband’s best friend. We all went to college together and for a brief time I dated him prior to even meeting my husband. We didn’t work and never had sex, but we’ve continued as good friends; he even introduced me to my now husband. My husband teases us saying things like, “You guys have more in common”, or to him “Still mad I married your woman?” We laugh it off, but now I’m starting to wonder “what if”? … Continue reading Asking Sunshine: Attracted to My Husband’s Best Friend
Asking Sunshine Because of how life has moved for both of us, and timing of my early educational pursuits in the midst of my parents’ divorce, I have a much distanced relationship with my father. Long story short, we keep in touch, but there is no REAL relationship there. I love him very much, but it’s always extremely uncomfortable trying to talk with him. We are literally just alike, so I understand him more than he knows, but sometimes it feels like there’s a gaping wound in our relationship that no one is willing to approach, so it will always be … Continue reading Asking Sunshine: Distant Daughter
