I have been dating this girl for 2 years now, and we are just now experiencing a problem. It seems she still has a "crush" on a boy she has known since 1st grade. She says her feelings are strong for the both of us. This guy doesn’t want her for a girlfriend but she continues to feel this way after all these years. She doesn’t want to like him and neither do I want her to, so is there any suggestions on what to do about this.

Dear Mike,

You have to have a talk with your girlfriend and let her know exactly how you feel, choose the right time and be gentle and show her that you care too much about her to let her dive into a complicated relationship with a guy that likes her as a friend only.
