In this episode, Klara & Cat discuss a query sent in by one of our male readers in which he asks our agony aunts their advice on how to support women now after as he says he committed "actions that would be considered assault and harassment towards women" in the past. He wants to know what he can do without looking like a hypocrite.
Liz & Molly also talk about their thoughts on one reader's query about their relationship. They wonder is it possible to be with someone who has very different views from you especially with regards to politics & vaccinations.

For our first podcast, we decided to introduce our Agony Aunt section. Each week our team of Agony Aunts will be on hand to offer our listeners some insight & advice into their dilemmas.
This week, our Agony Aunts offer their advice on homesickness, relationship trouble & the struggles of making friends in college.
1) Any tips for homesickness?
2) I told my friend I loved him… he doesn’t feel the same. I was kind of expecting it because he had been distancing himself recently but to actually hear him say it hurt so much. I feel as though I’ve lost something huge. I feel really safe and comfortable when I’m around him but that’s over. I’m heartbroken and lonely and I really want to talk to someone but I feel so isolated. I don’t know what to do.
3) I’m in an amazing relationship with a boy I love, but a close friend of his constantly upsets me, well past the point of “only banter”. It got to the stage where he had to choose between them and me, and while he chose me, I can’t help but feel so guilty at what’s happened. Any advice?
4) Dear Agony Aunt, any advice on making friends in college if you didn’t manage to find your group in 1st and 2nd year?
Be sure to head over to our Instagram @ethereallmag where you can submit your queries, anonymously of course!
