So you’ve met a great new guy and things have progressed, and you think everything is great. You have what you think is a great sex life and you're certainly satisfied. He seems like he's satisfied. Then, you’re at his house one night and you've got to e-mail your friend, so you open up his laptop. Being a woman you can't resist to check his browser history, or maybe he left another window open. Your mind tells you not to do this. And lets face the facts, we're all snoops, every single one of us. I haven't met a woman yet who’s not a snoop even though you all say you're not. It’s in your genes, its in your blood, its in your genetics. So you look and what do you find? Oh, his porn addiction. You confront him. You're hurt, you're angry, and you think to yourself you've never had better sex in your life. You don't understand how he can want anybody but you. When you talk to him about it all he says to you is, ‘I'm a sex addict’.

I received a question from a reader:
Dear Anita,
I’m in a 5-month relationship with my boyfriend. Things were great in the beginning but it’s been rocky the last couple of months. We’ve been arguing more and I don’t hear from him as often as I used to. I thought he was “The One” but now I’m not so sure. How do I know when to give up? Should I break up with him?

There aren’t enough hours in the day for me to tell you all of the amazing things I think and feel about Patti Stanger! I was lucky enough to know her towards the beginning of my career and the launching of her Millionaires Club, and let me tell you, I am not surprised one iota by the immense success she has had and the career she has built for herself.
Not everyone has what it takes to be a matchmaker, and not everyone has what it takes to be a successful business owner. Patti has managed to master both.
In honor of her great success, and the amazing mentor she has been to me, I thought I would share some of the most important things I have learned from her over the years with you, my readers!

I just went to a wedding of a dear friend this past weekend. It was gorgeous and so full of love. My heart is overflowing for my friend and her husband. They’re such a perfect couple. I wish I could say that I set them up, but my only involvement was telling her she needs to start online dating. And then, after three bad first dates dates, she met him! So, let that be a lesson to all of you online dating doubters.

I'm getting questions from guys left and right! This is great. I love having universal appeal. I also love this reader, so we will call him Reader I Love. You will see how cute he is. He writes:
Hi Dr. Psych Mom,
Background
I just graduated from college. My girlfriend and I have talked about it and both want to try long distance (I will be in San Francisco, she'll be in Chicago; this will be the case for at least the next year, most likely two years). We have over the past three months developed a deeply open/trustful/communicative relationship (the deepest I've ever been in), and so I think that will be a strength going into the long distance relationship. We are also in the same line of work and have similar career goals, so there will be common ground and the opportunity to share quite a bit on a day to day basis.
