Welcome to my new blog ...

Hello to all you fun folks out there in cyberland!

Thought I would welcome you to my new blog with some examples of what you might expect from me here.

I hope you'll all write in soon :-)

Dear Irongoddess,

I started dating this really cute guy almost two months ago. He lives medium-distance away so we don't get to see each other often but we've had lots of great phone conversations that went on for hours. He's been telling me for a while now that he hopes to be with me for a very long time and is forever suggesting romantic get-aways. Last night, he was supposed to come over since we hadn't seen each other for almost two weeks. Already late, he called to tell me he decided not to come over since he'd feel uncomfortable. He then proceeded to tell me that he wanted to take a break!
Irongoddess, I don't get it ... my heart is broken. I was really starting to fall for this guy! What is it with guys and their empty words?!?

Dear A.J.,

I'm sorry to hear that your heart feels in the dumps but don't despair ... this happens all the time and is a very typical male thing. Here are some possible answers to your question:
1) The guy's a schmuck and had his fill of fun.
2) The guy lied to himself and in turn, lied to you but he didn't realise it until later 'cause he doesn't know who he is nor what he wants. Be happy that your relationship is now over ... would you really want to date someone who's so confused?
3) Do you really need another reason? Who cares? Just move on and start meeting all those other men who could be exactly what you're looking for.

Cheers,
The Irongoddess

Dear Irongoddess,

My mother always walks into my room without knocking and I'm really fed up! I'm fifteen now and no longer a child and I'd really like some privacy. I've tried talking to her several times but she hasn't stopped ... what can I do? Installing a lock is not an option.

Dear James,

Start walking around your room stark naked all the time. When your mother walks in, just pretend that everything's cool and act normal. Continue doing what you were doing or if she addresses you, make sure to bring your full splendour up to her when you answer. If she doesn't start knocking soon, then add a little fondling of your "parts", very nonchalantly of course. Your problem will resolve itself quickly.

Cheers,
The Irongoddess
