Question Mark

Dear Mark,

I recently read your column in Hotspots Magazine giving someone advice. After reading the column, I decided to write you this email with hopes you can help me. I have lived in the Fort Lauderdale area for the last 11 1/2 years, having moved here from up north. I am 35 years old and deeply depressed. I have battled depression since I can remember. My life as a child and well into my adulthood has been nothing but pain.

Question Mark

Dear Mark,


My partner and I have been together for 12 years. We got married in San Francisco two years ago, so technically he’s my husband. My husband is 11 years older than me and I was very young when we met. He was the man of the house and made all the decisions. I guess I was okay with that because

Dear Mark,

 

I'm sort of heartbroken as I write this letter to you. I've talked all my friends' ears off and feel guilty trying to talk to them more about this subject. Of course, it's about a guy. We met at the White Party at Muscle ...

Dear Mark,
I met this guy about a week ago. He is adorable and a bit older than I (51), I am 40. I have no problems with older men; in fact, I tend to date them more than people my age. There is a lot to be said about people who are more stable in their life. For some reason I am very attracted to him physically, mentally, etc. He is fun, witty, smart and seems to have his life together....

Dear Mark,

 

I saw your column online the other day and thought you would be a good person to talk to about my problem.  I’m 17 years old and a senior in high school.  I’ve known I was a lesbian since the 6th grade when I had my first crush.  I’ve kept it a secret since then from my parents but have started to tell some friends.  I guess I never really considered telling them.  I always kind of hoped they would never find out.  In my mind it would have been after I was done with college and on my own.

Dear Mark,

 

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost two years.  Two wonderful but very rocky years.  I am 36 years old and he is almost 20 years older than I am.  However, that isn’t the problem.

Dear Mark,

 

I have a problem I wanted to write you about. There's this guy at work that I really like and [I'm] not sure what to do about it. I've had a crush on a guy at my office for almost 6 months. We've talked almost every day. I think he really likes me but cannot be sure. Over the holidays we sort of got out of our routine of speaking everyday ...

Dear Mark,

 

While holiday decorating is all about adding fun, sparkle and warmth to a very special season, it’s important to remember that many of our favorite decorations carry the risk of fire or electrical injury if not used carefully. Don’t let a preventable accident take the enjoyment out of your holidays – whether you’re excitedly preparing for ...

Dear Mark,

 

I have a question to ask.  There's this guy I saw at the grocery store.  He is a pharmacy technician and works at the pharmacy department. He is younger than me.  I see him looking at me the whole time I shop.  Every time I go to the store and he sees me he looks at me.  He gives me a small look like his eyelids are half closed and he turns his eyes at me.  If I look at him he turns his eyes to look down.

Dear Mark,

 

I'm dating a couple of different guys at the moment. The other day, two of them found out that they weren't the only ones I was seeing. I think they were disappointed about it, but we'd never discussed not seeing anyone else. I've only been seeing them for a couple weeks each and I think that's too early to be exclusive. I’m not sure I ever even want to be in a monogamous relationship. What sort of speech should I give them so I can continue to see as many guys as I want and still have them want to see me?
