Guidance for relationship problems and uncertainties
All relationships between humans can be difficult, fraught with problems and rewarding at the same time. Romantic relationships are especially challenging, and equally good for the human soul.
From the traditional “define relationship” talk between two people who have only recently met, to one-night stands, to long-term marriages, all interactions between two people can create questions for the participants.
These can include problems in long-term relationships, deciding what you want out of a relationship, having constant doubts about a relationship, and continually over-analyzing relationships.
The psychologists and therapists who are Experts on JustAnswer respond to any question, night or day, without requiring an appointment or taking time off from work.

Getting answers to your relationship questions
These Experts have handled questions on JustAnswer such as:
- I’ve never been in a real relationship. Why can’t I get any women to like me or want to date me?
- Why does he keep me around and say he cares about me while telling me he’s in love with someone else?
- What can I do when my long-time partner has never gotten over the fact that I had sexual experience before meeting him?
- How can I establish communication again with a girl who has recently gone quiet on me through our phones?
- How do I handle my husband’s mood swings?
- What should I do when I have strong feelings for a bisexual man who seems to like me but nothing more?
- How long do rebound relationships last on average?
It can be difficult to explain a romantic problem to an Expert, so it’s often helpful to organize the facts first, and even write them down so that they make sense to you. The Expert will want to know:
- The length of the relationship
- The ages of the couple
- The exact circumstances that cause the problems
- What you’ve already tried to do to address the problem
Phone calls are also available to speak with the Experts if it’s easier for you. The more information the Expert has about the circumstances surrounding your problem, the more helpful the answer will be.
