Dear Jackson: Restless

Dear Jackson.

I've been seeing a guy for six months. It's frustrating because I
initiate our get-togethers, and he returns my calls but rarely calls
me, and we've only been intimate a few times. He went away for five
weeks, and because I missed him, I asked if he'd e-mail a photo, which
he did. Well, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and I printed the
photo, framed it, and placed it on my nightstand. Two weeks after he
got back, he came over and noticed the photo. I said something like
"I missed you so much" and I asked him if I could have a snippet of
his hair to tape to the picture in the frame so I'd always have a
piece of him with me. He seemed really put off by this but hesitantly
gave me a lock. Since then he's been a little distant with me. Was
it that strange of a request??? I think he should be flattered and
thankful that I care for him so deeply. Any advice or opinions?>>

Dear Jackson: Awkwardly In Love

Dear Jackson,

I have a crush on my neighbor of two years. I don't rush into dating
-- I like to get to know a girl so I see we'll be a good fit.
Typically, I end up making more friends than girlfriends. I now see
this girl is definitely everything I'm looking for. Unfortunately, she
now has a boyfriend. I don't want to break anyone up, but I'd still
really like to say something. Should I??? I need advice!!! Thanks.

J-Lo, Uh Oh, Oh Noooo!!!!

Here's J-Lo's super-fabulous get-up for New Years Eve. No, no, and no. At a certain age, less is not more. She's in great shape but, no.

Nicole Richie... not so hot.

I have always thought Nicole Richie is one of the prettiest girls in Hollywood (when she's not skeletal). But when I saw this new pic of Nicole with Ashlee Simpson I had flashes of "crazy-cat-lady" when looking at Nicole. I think it's maybe the comparison to perfect-complection Ashlee but still...

This is from a show Justin did the other night in Detroit, home of Eminem.

Dear Jackson: Who's Your Daddy??

Dear Jackson:

I cheated on my husband - only once - but I'm disgusted I could do
that to the man I love.

I'm 26, he's 29 and we've been together eight years, married for two.

We are very happy, which is what makes it all the worse.

I went away for a team-building weekend with work. I found I was
pretty good at a lot of the tasks and the instructor singled me out
for praise.

At night we met up in the hotel and he made a bee-line for me.

He was good looking, charming and easy to chat to. I was bowled over,
tipsy, and fell for his patter.

When he suggested going up to my room I was putty in his hands.

My husband and I had been trying for a baby nearly three years and I'm
now seven months pregnant.

I know in my heart it isn't my husband's as the dates don't add up. He
doesn't realise, though.

When we found out, he was totally overjoyed and can't wait to become a father.

I know if I do tell him it will break his heart and destroy my marriage.

Do I keep quiet and learn to live with this secret for ever?

Deirdre: First off, you already know how bad what you did is, so I won't sit atop my moral high-horse and look down on you. That being said, I think you need to tell him. It's not fair to him to be tricked into giving his whole heart to a child he thinks is his own as a result of your mistake. If he chooses to work things out with you and decides to raise the child as his own with you then that's a totally different matter. But keeping this secret from him is like cheating on him forever.

That's MY 2 cents. What do you all think??? Leave your comments below -- you don't need to register. And listen for the responses on-air next Wednesday. Thanks!
