Yo-Yo Relationships

Dear Suze Q., I'm in my late 40s, and love my single life in a vibrant, big city. I keep returning to a relationships with an old love when we're both single. Our flings have great sex, new experiences, and lots of laughs, but each time intimacy and routine sets in, we realize marriage would be miserable. I like "us," but people say I'm loony.

Dear Yo-Yo rider, The benefits of this type of relationship are not often talked about. But as you've discovered, there are plenty, including that maybe he's actually a true friend who knows all your secrets and loves you a little anyway. Your yo-yo relationship satisfies some need or want. As long as you don't lie to yourself about what it is and isn't, enjoy yourself. You're redefining old norms, making people rethink old stigmas, so cheers. -SQ
