Advice Request
This person is feeling guilty to be in a relationship just after ending the previous one.
Answered Submission
Hello there!
Before I proceed with my advice for you, I want to tell you that you’re not bothering us. You can come to us a hundred times or more, and we won’t mind, because we are here to help. We wouldn't open an advice account if we didn't want people to ask for our help, right?
Now, I want you to understand that seeking companionship doesn’t make anyone a slut. It doesn’t matter if you’re a guy or if you’re a girl, companionship is something that all of us yearn for. If we are not programmed to yearn for companionship, why would there be seven billion people on earth?
It does make you feel like a slut for moving on from your previous relationship very quickly because this is what society has us believe. However, it doesn’t make you a slut. Since when does having feelings makes you a slut? Moreover, everyone experiences their life at a different pace. Some people fall in love after a year, while others fall in love in a week.
So, my advice would be to not worry about it, and just go for it! Ask him/her out, or, if it’s still too early for that, don’t be afraid to explore your feelings for him/her.
Just remember that you’re not a slut for liking someone.
With lots of love,

The Solstice Wars
In the grey-cloaked cityscape of modern London, student William Whiteswift has two secrets: the Fae walk among humanity, and they are just as vulnerable as us. His childhood was filled with them; they spawned nightmares and episodes, dreams and obsessions. The nightmares remain, of course, but the fae are his normal. Now, he heals them, for William is gifted. When he saves a faerie -- a humanoid fae -- from an injury he can’t explain, William is forced to let her stay. Finally, he may have taken on more than he can handle; Ainsel could uproot his life in seconds. Instead, she cracks a Pandora’s box of mysteries: someone just flipped her home on its head. And because of that, she did something unspeakable. And somehow, she doesn’t want to hurt him. The longer she stays, though, the crueler his nightmares grow. Worse, governments hide secrets, too: they know of faeries. To them, all fae are monsters fueled by solstices and equinoxes. As the autumn equinox approaches, the culling agency COURT hurries to track Ainsel down. With teams across the United Kingdom and Ireland -- iron-strong despite the region’s history -- they are nearing success. A world away, their country wounded, the faerie leaders hunger for justice. In the looming shadows of war and of Ainsel’s mistake, can a human and a faerie protect each other against their own kind? Could their plight mend rifts between bitter nations and bitterer people? Or will it, like past attempts at peace, shatter? Quick note! I hope you all enjoy the Irish (Irish Gaelic) words here and there! All are defined or explained within the text. This is my chance to show off speaking it at least somewhat decently. Still learning. ;D -K
