- Dear Suki
-
- By BG from Midlands Area
-
- Dear Suki, I have really have a problem. It all started a year ago i got
- into a famous uni near the Midlands and started my BSC degree<Course
- Witheld>. I started off really badly and needed help from my tutor who
- was from America. I used to go and seek assistance from her during my
- free time and gradually i got better in my course (i will not reveal was
- course i am doing as i can be traced like that).
-
- Anyway one day she told me too meet her in the canteen as she was out for
- lunch, i met her there, and she really felt like having a pizza down the
- local pizza place. There we ordered our food and drinks, afterwards we
- went to the local pub and both of us got stoned then she insisted that we
- discuss my problem at her place, Thats when we had our first `embrace`.
- After we sobered up we releasded what we had done and i promptly left. I
- avoided her for a few days. After about 2 weeks i decided to talk, then
- it became aparent that the `embrace` had feeling for us, and that we were
- in love. (Note the pizza place we went to, my girlfriends, friends,
- Boyfriend worked there but i didn`t know about this until i met him
- later, when it was too late)
-
- Eventually my girlfriend started to get suspicous after she went to the
- local pizza place we went to and spoke to <name withheld> who she knew
- well and he told her about us. She was not amused and dumped me
- straight. But she didnt stop there. My (so called) freinds found out,
- and they started to post private messages on the internal network of
- computers in the uni and eventually she got wind of it and came to me.
- The Dean of the uni found out too and called us both in we denied the
- accusations, said that she would lose her job and he make sure that she
- would never get another job again. She denied it again. We were forced
- to see less of each other.
-
- Now my course is nearly over and i`m asking her too leave with me but she
- is too scared that her career will be ruined, plus i think she is up the
- spout and i think she is it from hiding me. Please help. I dont know
- what to do especially as my parents dont know about this.
-
- I am 22 now and she is 27

- Dear BG,
-
- The first thing you need to do is to find out for certain whether or not
- your tutor is pregnant or not. If she is then it's imperative that she
- gets expert medical attention. Of course if she is pregnant, then you
- are going to need to do a lot of talking. She may be hiding it from you
- at the moment because she is unsure of your reaction. Be as supportive
- as you can, as she'll need help deciding whether or not to go ahead with
- the pregnancy.
-
- Now that your course is nearly over I can see no reason why you shouldn't
- continue with your relationship. It needn't affect her career adversely;
- surely there are other universities she could transfer to if she wants to
- be with you? This is the main issue you need to discuss - whether you
- both see a future in this relationship or not. Does she want to be with
- you, or is the fear of ruining her career merely a convenient opt-out
- clause? Now that you are no longer in the tutor/pupil relationship there
- should be nothing preventing you both from making a go of things, if you
- both want to.
-
- If she does turn out to be pregnant, and she does decide to keep the
- baby, then your parents are going to have to know eventually. It's
- probably best to tell them sooner rather than later. Once they've got
- over the initial shock they may turn out to be very supportive - stranger
- things have happened. You have to work out what you want, as well. Are
- you prepared to take on a baby at 22? It's only fair to discuss these
- things with her, then you both know where you stand.
-
- Do let me know how things work out,
-
- Suki
