Ask hailebop!




Did you ever wake up and wonder when your life became a soap opera? A bizzare mixture between 'Dawson's Creek' and 'Days of our Lives'?



I know I've had that feeling - that it's just all too dramatic and ridiculous, and wouldn't it be nice to go and under a nicely-furnished rock for a while? So, whilst I do not promise or claim to be an expert on how teenage boys minds work or how you can uncode your best friend's baffling behaviour, I'll always attempt to empathise and offer some honest words of advice.



I am 21, with a fairly dysfunctional life as a artsy student type. I've recently graduated with a degree in Philosophy, and am spending time working in the law before returning to university for further study. I still don't know what I want to do with my life, but I like where I am at the moment. I like shoes, bad television, chocolate cheescake and pretty things.



I am very busy at the moment, attempting to fund my life as a postgraduate (that's grad school to the Americans). I do still stop by quite a lot to help out with the admin stuff, but my column is pretty lame and inactive. Boo-hiss. I will however still endeavour to answer any questions that are sent my way, so feel free to send questions to my inbox.





Frequently Asked Questions


Actually, I made them up. But they are questions that I've seen more than once around this site (and, indeed, in the real world), and so have created general responses to them, linked below. It's a little sparse at the moment, but I'll be adding to the list as I think of more questions (and, er, answers to them).

Hey. i have a huge problem. see my step cousin that actully has no blood relation to me is actully the perfect guy for me. he wants to be with me and i want to be with him, do you think that is incesed since there is no blood relation to us since it is all by marriage. i mean i really have always had feelings for him even b4 his mom and my uncle met. is it wronge to be in love with this guy please help. I rate!!!!



It's not incest, but I don't think it's a good idea, either. I don't know how close your families are, but it's not really a good idea to experiment with somebody if your going to have to keep seeing them even if you break up. You haven't said how old you are, but if you are living at home with your family, there's going to be akwardness if you have to see this guy as family at family events despite having a romantic history together. It's not immoral in any way, but I'd advise proceeding with caution whatever happens. Good luck!
