Dear "e-dog" Gambling can be an entertaining compliment to one's enjoyment of athletics, however one should be careful about the games and amount one chooses to wager. As you referred to the University of Virginia as 'Virg," I call into question your knowledge of college athletics. Even an old dame who's been dead for years knows that the University of Virginia is called UVA, not Virg. Perhaps you should consider taking up a hobby in which your knowledge and skill-sets are better used. Looking up the posts of forum members who have pointed out your failings may provide you with more satisfaction than losing money on sports about which you apparently know nothing. Please write back and let us know what new hobby you've decided to pursue so that we can share your success stories. Abby.

Dear "Pete" It certainly sounds as though you're in a tough spot. The bain of every handsome gay male is having a woman who wants to have sex with him. You can take solace in knowing that you are not alone. Rejecting her overtures without hurting her feelings can be tricky, but if you calmly explain to her that you are not attracted to women who are "hot as H-E-double hockey sticks," she should take the hint. Provided you are firm with her, you and her former boyfriend should be able to continue your sinful relationship without upsetting her anymore than she already is.
