Hi Saheli,
I am 18 years old and I don’t feel at home even when I am at home. My parents are always busy earning money. My elder sister and younger brother are good at studies. They got a distinction in their SSLC board exam whereas I got a First Class. My parents look down on me. I have always loved sports because that is what I’m naturally good at. I wanted to join a sports club but my dad won’t allow me to go anywhere apart from college and home. I feel my friends love me unconditionally more than my family. I feel alone and sometimes I really want to commit suicide. Please help.

Hi Kumari,
First of all, don’t take thoughts of suicide lightly. Find a free helpline online and speak to a counsellor. I am sorry your folks aren’t being a good sport about your interest in sports. Can’t you play and train in college? Don’t worry about not being considered an achiever now. Some of us soar heights a little later than others and that’s okay. If sports is what you love, go after it with a passion. Play, read sports writing, sports autobiographies, write about it — there are many ways to pursue your passion other than a sports club. Think of yourself as a marathon runner. You need stamina, guts, and sheer willpower to get where you want to be. Game on.

Madam,
I am a 45 year old man and I have a habit of wearing women’s lower underwear. I have 10 to 15 fancy panties in my collection of different patterns. I purchase them myself and wear them to feel happy. Though I am married, I am not able to overcome this habit. Is it common in some men and women? Is it bad for our body?

Mr Feels Nice,

Don’t be under the weather because of underwear. In brief, it’s not bad. You are not harming anybody by wearing your happiness. Lawngerie is perfectly legal. Your secret is also Victoria’s Secret. So have fun Mr Fancy Panties, there’s nothing thong about it.

Hiya SS,
I’m a very attractive and good-looking man. I’m also charming, nice and very decent but I still can’t find a girlfriend. Even when I tell them how much I earn, they never get impressed. My whole family says that any girl will be lucky to have me as their partner but nobody wants to go out with me. What am I doing wrong?
Mr Super Hot

Hiya Super Hot,
Maybe you need to cool down. People who brag can be a drag. Stop praising yourself. On a date, see what’s great about your partner and consider why you are lucky to be with her. Even if you don’t feel this way, act like you do. Remember, modesty is the art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it.
