The sex is meaty, but so is her sandwich

Should vegan get upset over his date bringing a cheesesteak to his apartment?

Q. I am a vegan. I'm finding this is an issue for some women I date. Take this one girl: She brought a big, greasy cheesesteak to my apartment after I invited her to come watch a movie with me. It stank my whole place up. She sat there and ate the whole thing. It didn't stop us from getting busy, but later after she left, I wondered how to take it. Should I have said something?

Mia: She knew you were vegan and brought a big, stinky meat sandwich over to eat in your presence. Dude, that was her way of giving you her middle finger. You might want to think about her disrespect toward you before you go any further with this carnivore. Do you really want to kiss a woman whose lips are shiny from beef drippings?

Steve: How far do you take the vegan thing? The next time you're with her, let her know what the rules are. Then she can decide whether it's worth it.

Q: One of my best friends announced she was gay and leaving her husband. Not too long after she left, her husband started coming on to me. The sex was scorching, partly because I hadn't had it for long and it turns out neither had he. We do it every chance we can get. For the first time in my life, I'm having orgasms with a partner. My friend is OK with it. She's exploring her life as a lesbian. My problem is, he still loves her. Her belongings are still everywhere. I've gone over there and they are sitting at the table like an old married couple. I think about leaving but this is the best relationship I've ever had. Should I just try to get over my jealousy?

Steve: Yes. It's perfectly natural for them to remain friends. Would you rather they hate each other? That would make your relationship with them much worse. Focus on deepening your relationship with him, try not to be possessive and see where things go.

Mia: I couldn't do it. I don't care how mind-blowing the orgasms were, my ego wouldn't allow me to be a third wheel in my own relationship. My advice is not to settle. If you can have great sex with your friend's husband, you can have great sex with someone else.
