| - Trust |
If you love someone but can't seem to trust him for past mistakes, how do you ever get past it?

Ms. Ranee,
Your advice works! I recently broke up with a boyfriend of 11 months. The relationship was "great" as we had a lot in common, dated often and even traveled internationally together and had a caring and supportive relationship. Two major things appeared as red flags after reading your book: he liked the relationship "exactly" like it was and had no intention to progress into a more committed relationship and the relationship was "him" centered and revolved around his schedule, interests and..."him"! I spoke honestly to him about how we had different expectations and I decided to end it because ultimately, my needs would not be fulfilled. For the first time in my life, I broke off a "happy" relationship and I couldn't be happier!! I will find "the lid" that fits "my pot"!

| - Damaged Goods |
Dear Ranee,
My mom read about your book in the local paper and gave me a copy for my upcoming birthday. You mentioned "damaged" and "irregular" goods in your book, but what about a man with a physical/mental illness or disability?
I know a wonderful man who has severe allergies. He can eat and drink just about anything and does not require frequent emergency room visits or hospitalizations, but his condition has defintely affected his appearance. He does not have any hair, and this includes body hair, eyebrows, eyelashes etc.
Also, I am an animal lover and this would probably preclude our having pets, especially a cat.
As much as we have in common artistically, intellectually, emotionally, I cannot get past what I consider a life-altering condition.
Has anyone come to you with similar issues? Thanks!

I can't find your article on "why cinderella gets divorced and goldilocks doesn't" on your website. Where can I find it?

| - How do you handle, being replaced after 3 days? |
My boyfriend and I broke up recently, I ended it because to be honest I read your book and realized i wasn't getting what i deserved. He didn't even argue with me when I ended it, but he called a week later saying he missed me, then a week later he had pictures of another girl and he posted on Myspace and also called me to tell me he canceled my plane ticket for January (we were suppose to go to a wedding) the pictures of him and this girl look like he simply cut me out and put her where I was.... how am I suppose to believe that he did once actually care? I've been sick for 2 weeks, and can't even bring myself to laugh. I miss me.... I've gone through so much in the past 5 years, and even though this relationship wasn't very long, it meant a lot and I thought we had a future. How could he replace me SO EASILY??
