If you want to leave a comment, please do so on the Great Mate Debate website so that non-OEN readers may enjoy the brilliant things you have to say. If you have trouble posting there, then it’s okay to do so here.

*Reminder: the questions we are given to answer on GMD are often chosen from suggestions that readers send in. If you have an intriguing (or even better, controversial [ooooh I just felt a gleam in my eye]) question about the nature of relationships, please email it to blogschemistry@match.com and then you can brag to me about how awesome you are when it’s chosen and I will agree whole-heartedly and send you happy thoughts full of chocolate cupcakes.
