Relationships

The Capital Region is in good hands when the Love Cowboy comes into the studio with Brian and Chrissy. He tries to help out a listener with a relationship dilemma. This week it's Jasmine in Wilton who wonders if her boyfriend's thoughtfulness is nice or a bit strange. Can the Love Cowboy figure out if Jasmine's boyfriend is a keeper or a creeper?

Daniel in Caroga Lake writes: I know that women are emotional creatures, but every time me and my girlfriend get into an argument or a heated discussion, she cries.  We've only been dating for about year and it's not like we fight all the time, but we argued over over something stupid recently- like I don't even remember what it was -  and she started balling like her cat died.  I actually asked h

Candice in Voorheesville writes: I connected with an old college boyfriend of mine on Facebook a few months ago.  It's been about 7 years since we graduated. And even though he's been married for 4 years he told me something and it blew my mind.  He says he married the wrong girl and that he's been in love with me since college.  He also said that he thinks about me everyday and just had to tell m

Carrie in Castleton writes: I've been with my boyfriend for 2 years and I've noticed a trend.  He's not a big fan of Valentine's day (and neither am I really) but I do think it'd be nice to do something.  I don't expect expensive gifts , I just want his quality time.  Last year (our first Valentines) he planned an ice fishing trip with his buddies...so we did nothing.  Not a huge deal, he had thes

Leanne in Rotterdam writes: My boyfriend stays at my place as many as 5 days a week but doesn't contribute financially or help out because he has his own place. On top of that, he's constantly unhappy with my apartment and complains about me buying not enough food, but refuses to help me out.  Am I being unreasonable thinking he should help me out as he is practically living in the house? I'm thin

Erin in Clifton Park writes: My husband and I have been married for 3 years and recently I've been thinking about not allowing phones in the bedroom before we go to sleep at night.  Usually for the 20 or 30 minutes before we turn out, we scroll a bit and catch up on texts and things.  But I think that over time it could make for less intimacy and quality time.  I don't know how he's going to react

Curtis in Albany writes: My girlfriend and I have been dating for about 5 months and were having a conversation over a few drinks a couple few weeks ago that started off pretty well but it didn't end that way. We were discussing our experiences with travel and food and then it turned into discussions about our exes.  I gave up a little bit, but no too much- and she did much of the same until she c

Sean in Cobleskill writes: I have a first date coming up this weekend and I'm very nervous.  The girl and I have spent some time talking and facetiming, but this will be our first actual "face to face" encounter and I can't lie, I'm a little nervous.  I feel like there are things that she may judge me on that perhaps she missed or couldn't tell through Facetime most specifically my weigh

Stephanie in Lansingburgh writes: My boyfriend and I have been dating for about two years now, and something started happening about 6 months ago, and has been happening pretty regularly every since.  About once every week or two, I have dreams that he's cheating on me with random women.  They're pretty detailed dreams - I can actually see the women even though I don't recognize who they are.  I w

Manny in Selkirk writes: My girlfriend and I have been dating for 3 years and she's always known me as someone who doesn't believe in New Year's Resolutions but yet here we are, a few days into the new year and she's trying to get me to "resolute" along with her.   It's a few little things like be neater, save 2 or 3 thousand dollars, and try to eat healthier .  I just hate the notion of

Each weekday the Love Cowboy comes on with Brian and Chrissy trying to help out a Capital Region listener with a relationship dilemma. He is sometimes harsh, sometimes he's nice, but for the most part, he is straight forward. This time he tries to help out Bob in Slingerlands.

Sydney in Castleton writes: My boyfriend Sal and I have been dating a little less than year and the pandemic has really taken its toll on him mentally and physically.  He works for a company that laid off 1/3 of their employees so he's working like twice as much now.  I thought maybe the spirit of Christmas would help, so over the weekend I put some Christmas music on in the car when we were runni
