Dear Vera, I am a 32 year old woman who had been married before, had 2 kids, separated, and went back and had another child and 2 years later divorced. A little background: I was with my ex from the time I was just 16. He moved in with my family and we ended up getting pregnant and getting married. I had only had one other partner before him.

Dear Vera, I Slept With My Ex’s Mother [And Her Father Knows]
Dear Vera, I am in a very nasty fix which I don't know how to get out of. I work in one of the better established banks and in 2013 I met and started dating this girl that had been posted to our branch as a corper. We were an item for over 9 months, but when she left to complete a masters program abroad the relationship sort of fizzled out. Given that she had introduced me to a couple of her family members including her cousin, I accidentally bumped into this cousin in a party in VI, Read More
Dear Vera, I’m Married, But I’m Still In Love With My Ex-Husband
Dear Verastic, I'm new to your page but thought maybe some advice from you could help me. I'm still very much in love with my ex-husband and I know that he wants me back too.

We dated this way (and saw each other twice during the relationship) before we finally got married in Abuja in August of 2013. Yes, we have been married for less than a year. I started filing for him in January of this year, but I'm still waiting to hear from Immigration. You know how long it takes them to do things. About a week after I submitted the Read More
Dear Vera, I Want Him Back
Dear Vera, I love your blog and literally everything about you. I have a situation that may not be so unique. I have been dating this guy casually on and off and he's a very nice guy, but I just never found myself to be so attracted to him. The sex is OK. It can definitely get better but I have never even told him so it's my fault. The problem now is that he recently got a very good job and suddenly-suddenly he's the man of my dreams. I know the Verastic readers will say that I am a gold Read More
