Tonight we are launching an advice coulumn, Ask Eve. Please right in your questions about relationships. I will do my best to think about it and give you an answer hopefully filled with insight and a little humor thrown in.
This is just fun entertainment and educational, but not therapy. I don't know all the answers, but I know a little bit after being in the therapeutic business for close to two decades. Give it a try. If you want therapy you can call me at 773-859-1276 to schedule an appointment. Post your questions in the comment section of this post Ask Eve. Have Fun. Best, Eve

Eve I am a young girl that moved to Chicago several months ago and I am having a hard time making friends. I live with my aunt and an other woman but they are both older than my self and although I love living with bothe of them they tend to introduce me to an older crowd. Also at work, though I get along with the people that I work with really well we are not really "friends". I guess I was just wondering if you have any suggestions for making new friends, even though I work all the time and I am not very out going?
Thank you for your time
jazmin Sounds like you are ready to make new friends. Try a Tango or Speech class or a Soduku Club.
Find something that you are excited about and you are bound to meet people you like to talk to and maybe dance with. jazmin Goodluck and Ole'
Hi Eve,
What a great idea!!!
I wonder if you can help with a little problem I have? You might say God was not nice to me at birth. Lets just say I don't have the "biggest" tool in the shed. ;-(
When I use the mens room in public, I always feel uncomfortable going to the bathroom next to other men for fear they might catch a glimpse of my "guy". I am rather outgoing in general (actually VERY sucessful financially) it is just this one thing that really has become a problem. I even use the stall at times to avoid getting embarrased.
How do I get past this and stand up for myself? I know others are in the same position and some have gotten over it.
Thanks,
Signed: Shy in the guys room.
Dear Shy Guy,
You have alot of good stuff going on in your life. Focus on how you know how to shake your money maker (your brain) and are creating a fun and dynamic life for yourself. Try something when you go into the guys room and walk up to the urinal....hear a song in your head that fills you with confidence...The song that pops into my head is "Who Let the Dogs Outs." Growl with me now....:)
I could use a little feedback on my current and past relationships. I dated someone on and off for about 2 years. It was not a healthy relationship...although fun. We didn't want the same things, we had way different goals and values in life, my family was not fond of him. I was with him because he was the only guy who asked me out and he filled a void in my life. With that said, I'm trying to figure out why do I keep going back to him? Is it because of comfort, convenience, lack of other dates???
Now, I just started dating someone new...who is interesting and I would like to see where it goes. But why do I keep thinking of this other person, that I don't even want to be with. I feel like it's a curse or something?
Please help.
