Hot Mess

Diana is humble, so she won’t post the links to all the other work she does… but I’m here to do it for her  This is a fantastic My Wingman Diana column that really hit home for me.  No, I haven’t been through the situation personally, but I might as well have written the question as I’ve had a handful of friends go through something similar - apparently, I hang out with a bunch of hopeless romantics…

Hi Diana,

So please bear with me here, this is going to be long but important. My best friend is a hopeless romantic; he’s the type that he NEEDS a relationship. His girlfriend of the past six months has proven herself to be a psycho. In the same breath she will say that she loves him, and that she needs space. She wants him to be at her house every day and at least once a week says he’s smothering her. The other day she said he’s allowed to “freebies” with girls. I feel stupid asking because, unlike my friend I have brain cells, but do you think MAYBE this is a sign from his crazy girlfriend?  Read on…

Actually, now she’s everyone’s wingman!  I’d like to introduce you all to Diana’s brand new blog “My Wingman Diana“!

On it, Diana takes reader love advice questions and answers them daily.  They had a soft launch of the blog last month, and they’ve really been picking up steam.  So now you know, when Diana’s not here, that’s what she’s doing!

Once a week, we’ll check in over there to give you all a taste of what’s happening.  Today’s advice is all about second chances… and when not to give them!

FOOL ME ONCE

Dear Diana & Dr. Archer,
I broke up with my boyfriend two months ago because he was unfaithful. Last week he showed up with a date at the restaurant where I worked and specifically asked for me as his waitress. At first I was upset, but decided to handle this professionally and not to show that it bothered me. But then, after dinner he left a rose and a seven-page note for me expressing his undying love and apologizing! What should I do?

Hi JD,

I can understand your confusion but ask yourself would you ever be able to trust this man again? Read on…
