This is a comment I got just a while ago:
I don't really know how to start this, but I just want to get an honest
opinion that won't be sugar-coated. I want to know if my boyfriend might
be cheating on me. A while ago, I had checked his phone and there were
some odd text messages from him to his second cousin. They said:
"Can anyone see your phone?"
"Ok good. Would you like to mess around on Sunday?"
"How long have you been on it? Would you like to do it again?"
It seems like he might be cheating on me with her. Unfortunately this is
the only piece of evidence I have.
Am I overreacting, or is this
something I should worry about? I've already asked him about it, but his
story doesn't make much sense. He did admit to asking her how long she
had been on her menstrual cycle. I don't know why he'd need to know
that. In addition, I asked his cousin and her story didn't match his. I
don't want this to be true, but if it is, I don't want to stay with him.
Please just tell me what you think. Thank you
To be honest, it sounds like he is and that he is trying to hide it. I would say talk to him and see what he says if it wasn't for the text "Would you like to do it again?" The cousin's story is probably the correct one and your boyfriend is probably covering it up. If they are similar but with some differences, the cousin is probably failing at covering up for him. It might not be the cousin he is cheating on you with or at least I hope its not.
What I think happened is he cheated on you with a different girl. He is covering it up by having the contact be his second cousin's name instead. He asked his cousin to help cover for him but they both have different stories sine it is probably a lie. You're not overreacting and this is something you should worry about. He might be cheating. It definitely sounds like it is. His whole story seems off. I think you should ask until you can be sure he isn't lying or when he finally tells the truth. Unfortunately, it sounds like he is and if he is, you need to do whats best for you.

First real post under new blog title
I noticed that my links are now broken because of me changing the name of my blog so I will post another blog under the new name. I haven't gotten any new comments or questions so I will base this one on what I see going on around me. I see couples all around me and I see three different types of couples. The first kind of couple I see is the over the top couple. We all know this couple. This is the couple where both people in the relationship show so much emotion towards each other that it makes the others around them roll their eyes in contempt. I'm writing about this couple first because they are the most prevalent and they are the couple that people see the most because they make the fact that they are a couple known the most. I also write about this couple first because for most, this is the first step in the relationship : The Honeymoon Phase.
Every relationship has this phase. It is the phase where each partner loves everything about the other person and sees nothing wrong in their relationship at all. There will eventually be a stop to this either because of an argument or it simply faded out. The ones who continue on past this honeymoon phase are the second couple I see. This is the more toned down couple. These are the ones who don't have to announce it to the world because most people already know. This is the couple that is still happy together but they have matured into a better relationship and have gotten strong through the arguments. These couples are in the second phase and some couples will grow more and more until they get to the hopefully final phase which is marriage.
The couples who don't go to that are usually the third couple I see. This is the hybrid couple where one is more mature about the relationship and the other is clingy. Usually this is at the end of a relationship because one person is trying to desperately cling to the other and make it work which unfortunately usually causes the other person to leave them. That mature person wants it to work but they want to be mature about it and not revert and go back to how they used to be in the beginning. Unfortunately, these two will clash and the mature person's pity will eventually run out and the relationship will end.
My advice out of this is try to connect with your partner. you two are a team and hopefully love will bind you two together. If they want to be that person who loves p.d.a. go with it if you are willing to. If you are not, let them know. If they don't want that, don't try to force it on them or you will eventually lose them. Be the first or second couple. Don't ever be the hybrid couple.

New Title of Blog
For the people reading this, I changed the name of my blog from Robbie's Opinions to Robbie's Relationship Ramblings. This change has happened because of the questions I've received and what my posts have turned into. I will still answer any questions I receive but if I don't receive any questions, my blogs will probably be about relationships and advice when it comes to them. I will still answer any questions even if they are not about relationships because I want to be the kind of blogger people come to for help and I want them to have a positive experience because of me.
Another reason I change my blog is so it can become specialized instead of being about anything and everything. I will still answer everything because this is meant to be a fan-friendly blog and it will continue to be exactly that. In short, I changed the blog name because of what my recent posts have been based on and so I can be more of a specialist when it comes to certain advice.
Still feel free to comment and ask anything below.

Nice guys finish last or do they?
I havn't got any comments since my last post so I will answer a question I hear all the time: Why don't girls ever date the nice guys or more commonly, why do girls always go after the douchebags? The girls don't go after them because they are douchebags or disregard you because you're nice. That isn't what they are responding to. They are responding to whether or not a man has confidence.
Unfortunately, 9 times out of 10, it is the douchebag that looks like he has confidence. The traits that make him look like the wrong person to you like the cocky demeanor and the arrogant personality are also the traits that are drawing the girls in. This is why the nice guy loses because compared to the douchebag, it looks like he has no confidence. You can be the nicest guy in the world but if you don't have any confidence, you will never get any girls.
There is some good news though, the girls do say they want a nice guy most of the time. You're thinking they say it, but they don't mean it. They do mean it. It's just they want a nice guy not a doormat. Don't be the guy asking what's wrong all the time. If you can tell something is genuinely wrong, that is the time to ask. Don't do what you think will work. It hasn't gotten very far in the past. Respond to what she does by acting like yourself not what you think she wants you to act like. If you act like yourself and show confidence in yourself, the girls will respond to you. You don't have to be a douchebag to get someone.
All you have to do is be yourself. When I say be yourself, I don't mean keep doing what you're doing because that is bound to fail. I mean be your best self. If you show the person you truly are in the best way you can, you will have a better chance. What this blog is basically saying is the main thing that attracts women is confidence. If you have no confidence, your odds will drastically drop. But if you show that you have confidence, you will have a better chance with women.

First Anonymous Question
This is what I just got as a comment on my last post:
Ok, so here is the deal, tell me what you honestly think I should do. I am putting your advice giving skills to the test. So throughout all high school I was obsessivly in love with a friend of mine, I went over and spent time with her, and been a friend, but I would always do something stupid like push myself on her more or whatever. I went to the point of where I actually wrote a letter to her admitting how I felt about her and everything at the time.
Well after a while I decided that it would be the best for both me and her, if I just started dating other people and everything. Well now we are in college, we became pretty good friends, and now that I am single again for a while, those feelings have started coming back and I am scared and not sure what to do. I want to be her friend and her not to think bad of me because of this, but yet I know that my feelings will never change and so I don't know what I should do.
This is the first true advice I'm giving on this blog and I will do my best so here it goes. You asked me to be honest so I will tell you that it looks like you got friend-zoned (at least in high school). What you can do now is one of two things. 1. Admit to yourself that it might be better to just stay friends especially if she wasn't sending back any feelings back in high school. or 2. You try to see how she acts towards you now. She might have forgotten that you pushed yourself on her back in high school. If she did, never bring it up again even as a joke. You might lose any chance at her. If she acts like she likes you now, go for it but ask her to go on a casual date not some big ordeal and definitely don't tell her you've been obsessively in love with her. if she says yes to the casual date, act normal. Subtlety is the key in this situation. You can't go over the top with your emotions on a first date.
If the first date is good, ask her on another one and see where it goes. If she doesn't act like she likes you or she says no, just remain friends with her and stop trying with this one girl. Try to move on and look for someone else. If you are hung up on this girl, you won't be able to find anyone else so if you know there isn't any chance with her, you might as well forget any romantic things with her. If you move on and find someone else, those feelings will change about her and you'll see that it wasn't worth getting worked over. Long story short, see if she likes you by the way she acts. If she seems like she does, ask her out on a casual date. If not or if she says no, try to find someone else simple as that.

What is love?
My friend Kyle just posted this question and as tempted as I was to write "Baby, don't hurt me" I will write seriously about it. It is hard to describe love as it is different for everyone. It is one of those things where if you have experienced it, you understand it completely but if you've never experienced it, you will never understand. I will try to explain my best though. For me, love is when you let your heart make the decisions and you aren't upset by it.
You actually enjoy it because it is one of the best experiences you will ever feel. Love is when you would give up everything for that one person because you can't give them up and nothing else compares to them. Love can make you feel the best you ever have and also the worst. It can be a cruel temptress but it can also be your best friend. It is the one thing religious and non-religious people can agree on. In the bible, it says it is the most important thing in the world but non-religious people can think that as well.
Love is something that binds but its not a bad thing, you choose to let it happen. Some people are afraid of love but it isn't anything to fear once you feel it. Because once you feel it, you now know why it is out there and why people try so hard for it. You will try your hardest for love because that one person is the one thing that is always worth your best effort.
That effort isn't attainable without love because love changes you for the better and even if you lose love, you still know it was good for you because of how you felt when you were in love.It isn't easy to understand because everyone is different and everyone's emotions are different but that is what I think love is.

First Post
This is my first blog post here on Blogger, so I will make it short and sweet. We don't want to bore anyone with a first post and I really want people to like my blog. This blog is to help people by giving them advice. I will answer questions I receive in the comments of my posts.
I will answer any question within reason and say what I believe and how I feel. I know I can't really show how good I am at advice without any questions and this is why the first post is so short. The second post will be longer as I will answer the first question I receive.
