      Oh youngin', firstly, "personlality" is spelt personality. Now go write that out 100 times until you get it right.

      As for your question, you haven't read my little blurb have you? "Aunty Shirley never discriminates" ... that means that neither looks nor personality matter to me. I tell this to all my children; they are always asking who is my favourite. Neutrality wins.

      What is with these dating/ relationship questions... I mean, I feel honoured you feel I can provide adequate answers, but I miss all the random questions I use to get. (Actually, I have some left in my inbox that I am choosing not to answer, but not for the reasons you are probably thinking. I'm procrastinating at the moment, so hey, I might answer them anyway).

      Back to the issue at hand, does Aunty Shirley date? Are you asking with a specific time-frame in mind? Like right now? Or in general? My answer to all three would be "I guess so."

      Though to be honest, no one really dates anymore. (Check out the link I posted below, it truly is fantastic)

      Yes, it's none of your business. If you say something, she'll probably not believe you anyway. It's pretty much a lose-lose situation.

      If she is not your 'bestie' I doubt she'll ask for your opinion. If she does, tread carefully. Just be very tactful with your wording.

      Aunty Shirley has a question for you:
      Why do you hate him?

    13. Aunty Shirley

      Haha! I am literally laughing out loud. Past history would suggest someone not asian, though I'm not ruling out any particular ethnicity. It would depend on a number of things.

      Gosh, kids these days. I don't get this internet business. What happened to the good days when you sent someone a letter, or baked them a cake? Usually if you like someone, you ask them... in person. Or you give them things.

      And what does this "going out" business entail?

      It's time aunty shirley educated everyone. Read this and reconsider your question.

      I feel like this could be a multiple answer-type question. I'll let you decide what I did:

      Did Aunty Shirley:

      a) Bake cookies all day in an attempt to bribe various diplomats around the city?
      b) Create her own brand of cleaning products?
      c) Walk past an amazing bakery, got intoxicated by the delicious aroma (something akin to heroine in the domestic community) and as a result, Sunday is rather a blur?

      The type that steals Salami and fruit muffins from neighbouring houses.

      Ah, what a predicament but not an uncommon one. I'm glad you came to aunty shirley (I'm hoping you are not a douche, but your asking indicates that you probably aren't).

      Here are things to consider:

      1) How long have you been with your current girlfriend?
      2) What is so attractive about this other girl?

      Obviously if you've been in a long-term relationship, it's normal to like other people. If this is the case, ask yourself the second question: it is purely a physical attraction? Perhaps you like the excitement of a new relationship?

      If you answered anything along those lines, I'd probably say that you should take a long think before you do anything. Remember "Lust" is just an illustration of something you want but can't have- And economics tell us that 'wants' aren't essential for anything but personal fulfillment.

      But if the relationship is relatively new, that is a bit worrying. Generally early relationships are the most exciting- if you already having feelings for someone else that could be an indicator that it isn't going so well (again, I'm assuming you are not a douche who wants to get into everyone's pants). In which case, consider what I have said above but also remember than ending any relationship is always tricky.

      Either way, it's all about the C word, (that's communication). Talk to your girl, talk to me, or your friends- it really is the best way to sort things. Take time, think things over. Just don't anything that Aunty Shirley wouldn't approve of.

      Good luck.
