Dear Panel,

I have always considered my family life, the foundation of what a family should be. My parents have such a loving relationship and gave me, my brother and sister, a very charmed & happy upbringing. The thing I treasured most about my upbringing is my parents and how they got along. So many of my friends had to deal with their parents breaking up and were envious of our family. My mum and dad celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary 2 months ago and everyone was mesmerized by how much they were still in love.

Last week I was out with my best friend and a few others at a little jazz bar. The night was going so well until one of my friends said in mild disgust: ‘That’s so off. Those two should get a room.”– We all turned round to have a look at a guy who looked like he was about to get to 3rd base, and to my horror, the guy was my dad! I turned away, pretending I didn’t see and both anger and shock set in. I just wanted to leave, then one of my friends said that the guy really looks like my dad. Then everybody was fixated on this couple practically dry humping in public. I just wanted to die. When the light came on my dad turned to get his jacket off the back of his seat and looked directly at me.

The next day and for the last 8 days he has said nothing as if it didn’t happen. I have lost so much respect for him. What I’m most concerned about is my mum, she is so devoted to my dad. I can’t bear to be in the same room as him. I’m so conflicted. Do I tell my mum? Given all my friends saw, it’s only going to be a matter of time until she finds out anyway. Is the news better coming from me or should I stay out of it?

Hi Sweet and Sour,

I’m a 20-year-old guy and I haven’t had a lot of sexual experiences. My dad left when I was 2 and since then it’s just been me and my mum. She is a very beautiful woman at 41, has always been sociable and outgoing and I’m used to her friends being around, although she doesn’t often bring solo men into the house. I’m rather shy but friendly to everyone.

Over the past 2 months, one of mum’s friends has started flirting with me. She is I suppose super-hot, and it’s not like I don’t fantasize about older women, just not this one! It’s getting to the point where it’s uncomfortable. I feel like I’m being hunted and I have no idea how to divert this predatory woman’s attention. Every time she comes over she finds a way to be alone with me and her advances are becoming way over the top! Her last attempt was to be topless in my bathroom with the door half open, trying a top on that mum was loaning her.

I could help looking at her fantastic rack but still, it made me very nervous. Please tell me what is the best way to handle this? It just feels like sexual harassment!

Dear Sweet and Sour,

My girlfriend of six months and I have been pretty happy. Just before we began seeing each other, however, she had gotten out of a pretty serious relationship that she had with another girl. I didn’t know it was a girl until last month when we bumped into her ex and at a club we were in. This girl came up to her on the dance floor, looked at me and then gave her the longest kiss on the lips.

At first, I was like “Wow, this is hot”, but then my girl looked back to me with the biggest turned on smile and said, I’d like you to meet my ex!” I pretended I was cool with all the lesbian stuff but I’m not sure I am. And despite being reassured that their relationship is all over, it’s made me very insecure about our relationship. I’m jealous but I’m also confused.

If I was to kiss another girl in front of her isn’t that some form of disrespect?? Why is it different for her kissing another girl? To be honest I’m too anxious about this to work out whether to leave or if it’s a good thing as my brother keeps telling me.
