Dear H&B,
For about five months, my BF and I have been seeing each other every two weeks because of our schedules. We’ve been texting in between to keep in touch, but now he’s seeing other women, which at least he was honest enough to let me know. I tried to take it in stride, but should I let him know my feelings or just cut him loose?

Dear OOALH,
Unless you have a masochistic streak a mile wide, cut the man loose ASAP. It’s difficult enough trying to keep a relationship together between erratic work schedules, and texting is a poor substitute for a good old-fashioned bone dance. And if you only get the chance to hit the sheets twice a month, what’s the point of staying together? He obviously doesn’t care enough to remain true to you, and while you can always sit down and discuss things with him, it sounds like that would be a waste of time. You’re not married to him and it’s only been five months, so get out, get over it, and move on.
