Dear Nurse Ansalong:
Why is it that, every time I meet a girl, we're great for about two weeks, and then they say I get either too impersonal or too clingy? These seem like opposites. Am I just horribly insensitive or can I not handle the female psyche?

Otaku, take it from a woman who has had more "One Month Relationships" than I think anyone else on the planet, it is very hard sometimes to keep a relationship going. Usually, in the beginning, the two of you are in sort of a love/lust period. You want to spend all of your time with him or her and everything is perfect. But, then time enters and the feelings of lust tend to start to subside. This is usually the period where problems like you've been having tend to appear. One person comes out of the lust before the other and the emotions between the two of you don't quite match up. This is the point when most relationships are put to their ultimate test. If you are both devoted to each other, then you'll be able to get through this period and on into a more serious relationship. If not, then it might not have been meant to be for the two of you. Please don't give up because of his problem. Everyone goes through exactly what you are. When you find that "right person", you're problems will be over. So, get out there and get her!
