Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Office Romance Just Got Awkward

Question: My boyfriend and I have been together for awhile and things have been going great.  Recently, he was promoted!  Problem is – he is now my boss!  We have kept our relationship on the down low to keep from being a part of office gossip/chatter but if it comes out now – it will look terrible!

Answer: What are the chances of that happening!  It is interesting that your partner has now become your boss – shifting the concept of being equal to a role of superior and inferior. This can create a lot of emotions and uncertainty.  The first thing to ask – are their any career consequences from your relationship?  If not, let it unfold and see what happens.  If so, you may want to discuss the consequences of continuing your relationship within the same company.

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Stuck In The Middle

Question: I don’t want to be in the middle of this! My boyfriend’s mother is sick and he wants to move back home to be closer to her. His mother HATES me and he wants me to go with him.

Answer: Yes, you are a horrible horrible person and you’re going to hell. KIDDING!!!!!! You are magnificent and courageous and willing to tell the truth… and I find that inspiring I think it’s very important for people to be given the option to spend time with their parents as they die because sometimes people die suddenly and you never get a chance to say something; yet, your boyfriend will be able to feel good about the time, effort, and presence he gives her. And it’s also very important for you not to stop living or choose something that’s not a contribution for you and sacrifice yourself for another only t...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Boyfriend Was Rude To Disabled Brother

Q: For about a year, I have been dating (what I thought) was a wonderful man.  I am very protective of my disabled brother so I am hesitant to introduce men in my life to him.  This guy was different so I wanted him to understand that if he was going to be a part of my life, he was going to be a part of my brother’s as well. The way he acted towards him was atrocious! He ignored him and if my brother made contact, he jumped as if my brother’s disability would rub off on him!  I thought he was the one but now I am not sure.  Thoughts? A: I’m so sorry love.  This experience must trouble your heart in two ways – how he treated your brother and disappointment for believing he was the one.  While I do not condone his behavior, I must say that people have a tendency to act unpredictable and/or unkind when they are around people who are different from them.  Through education and practice, people can change.  Would you be open to communicating with yo...
