What should you do? Be excited for the possibilities for my future. Being married isn’t all it’s promoted to be for women – more like slavery.

Dear Ms. HeartBeat: Me and this guy have been friends for a while, but now we’re getting more intimate. I initiated the relationship by the way. Now he texts me like, “hey let’s get together tonight!” Naturally I respond “yeah sure, what time?” to which he never ever responds and I am left hanging. This has […]
Dear Ms. HeartBeat: My husband and I got married 2-1/2 months ago, but we’ve been together for five years.
