Dear CMR,

I've been getting to know a guy for the last few months and I have done my best to show him I am interested in dating. Why hasn't he asked me out yet? Am I doing something wrong?

Interested In Him

Dear CMR,

I recently started considering online dating but it feels intimidating. Can you give me any advice that will make it easier to find a person worth getting to know?

Dear CMR,

I am single.  Some of my dating friends recently told me that when I meet “the right person,” I'll just know they are right for me. I've heard that advice before, but is it true?

"Dear CMR,

As a working mom and wife, I find it hard to balance time with my kids, my husband, and all of the things on my plate. How should I prioritize my time?"

"Dear CMR,

I am recently out of an eight-month relationship, and it didn't end very well. I find myself making myself busy just so that I don't have to think about it all. I know that isn't healthy. Can you give me some tips on how to take care of myself and slow down to process this change?

Dear CMR,

Some good friends of ours have been having a tough time in their marriage. They are Christians and are considering giving up on the relationship. What can we do to help them keep going?

Their Married Friends

Dear CMR,

I am a college sophomore and I've been trying to move my relationship with my parents into an age-appropriate place. I don't live close to them and I am growing and changing in ways they aren't around to see. I still want them in my life but since we don't live close, how do I grow and encourage them to understand that I am changing and evolving?

Taking On The World

Dear CMR,

My wife and I have pretty similar styles of handling our finances and so we don't talk about our money often. Is that a problem? Why should we talk about money if there doesn't seem to be an issue?
