JANE SAYS: Whatever you’re doing, change it. All of it. Clearly the way you’re operating isn’t working.Why does every date end in drunken sex? Are you giving away too much of yourself? If you’re desperate to please and find love, then I fear that desperation is coming out in your behaviour and it’s not attractive. Calm down and chill out. Speak to a trusted mate or relative about how you’re feeling and where you’re ­going wrong. Be prepared to take constructive criticism and go right back to basics if it’ll result in more meaningful relationships in future. You’re not a failure and don’t ever think you are. Call The Samaritans (116 123) if ever you need support. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How do I separate my new girlfriend from her phone? I’ve been on a few dates with her, and I really like her.
