After my girlfriend lost her husband, she was lonely and scared, so she started collecting pets and many of them were allowed to sleep in her bedroom. But now I’m part of her scene and it’s turn- ing me off. I’ve had nightmares about being attacked by her zoo — not that they’ve done anything yet. I haven’t been much of a lover to this woman, I must confess. I’m normally pretty rowdy and noisy, but not at her place. I’m watching my back. Should I just fade out of this relationship? I’ve never been as captivated by a woman before, but the sex is still making me pretty nervous with all her animals listening in. — Nervous to Let Loose, southern Manitoba Dear Nervous: Don’t give up. You just need to know the rules for being intimate with different types of pets in the room. Animal behaviourists say cats just tend to leave the room on their own when humans start getting frisky, as they’re bored stiff. Dogs find it mildly disconcerting and need to be gently put out of the room if your activity is about to go beyond mellow affection. However, big birds such as par- rots react more like jealous humans and can be loudly upset if you start seriously making out. So make sure to leave them in another room — possibly with their cages covered — so they can relax while you humans act like you’ve lost your minds. The whole scene could do with music that blends with your human sounds, so experiment with a pleasant soundtrack rather than total quietness as your lovemaking background. Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I feel hugely em- barrassed over my first all-the-way sexual experience. My doctor had to break it to me that I’d contracted an STI — a sexually transmitted infection. I was so careful. I had started taking the pill and was really ready for my first full sexual experience (I’m 18). I finally met a really nice guy and went out with him a bunch of times. Then one night we had a couple of cocktails and end- ed up going all the way. It was a wonderful experience. But now I’ve ended up with an embarrass- ing STI. So I called up my new boyfriend. I was angry and fired questions at him. I demanded to know what had happened before I came along. He said the girls before me were on the birth-control pill, so he didn’t have to use condoms. What was he thinking? Most people know the pill does not prevent STIs. I said sarcas- tically, “Thanks for the STI.” He told me to calm down and said he only had sex with the girl he dated before me once, so maybe it wasn’t his fault and said maybe I should confess who else I had been dating. I told him he was the first lover I ever had. My question is, now that I’m likely clear of the infection, do I need to carry condoms and use them each and every time? — Scared of STIs, North Kildonan Dear Scared: Although couples often don’t like using condoms, they are a good barrier to preventing the transmission of many STIs, including HIV, chlamydia and gonorrhea. Un- fortunately, condoms may not protect against infections spread through skin-to-skin contact such as genital herpes, depending on the location of the affected area. So, it makes sense to use condoms when you’re first dating. Serious couples may feel they don’t need them anymore — but if one or both people in the couple are straying, full protection is definitely needed and you don’t want to find that out too late.

MAUREEN SCURFIELD MISS LONELYHEARTS TV TALK SHOWS Jimmy Kimmel: Harrison Ford (above), Ariana DeBose, My Morning Jacket Jimmy Fallon: Pete Davidson, Sadie Sink, Olivia Tiedemann Stephen Colbert: Al Roker, Monica Lewinsky Seth Meyers: Aidy Bryant, Joe Alwyn, Aaron Chen MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or important decisions from 4 a.m. until 7 a.m. After that, the moon moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius. ● ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Travel or do something different so you feel you are expanding your world. You want to learn new things, see new places or talk to interesting people. In fact, new romance with someone “different” might blossom. Optimism reigns. ● TAURUS (April 20-May 20) It’s a good thing you are the financial wizard of the zodiac because you will be able to handle the opposing influences that could affect your wealth. On one hand, you are insightful and purposeful about the resources of others. On the other hand, you might go overboard. Caution. ● GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Be careful about promising more than you can deliver because you won’t get away with it. Be optimistic. Be positive. Be encouraging. Nevertheless, be realistic and stay in the ballpark of what is doable. Relations with partners are warm and cosy. ● CANCER (June 21-July 22) Co-workers are warm and supportive. Even your health feels vigorous and energetic. Travel plans might be grandiose; ditto for ideas related to higher education, publishing, the media, medicine and the law. You’re thinking big. ● LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Enjoy socializing with others. Accept invitations to meet friends, attend sporting events and share fun times. Anything to do with the arts, the entertainment world, the hospitality industry or children will be excellent choices. (No doubt, you’ll pick up the tab.) ● VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Financial discussions and negotiations will favour you; however, you might be tempted to give away the farm when talking to spouses, partners and close friends. Keep this in mind. Gener- osity is a wonderful thing but you have to take care of yourself as well. ● LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) This is a great day to shmooz and enjoy the company of neighbours, siblings and relatives because you feel upbeat and optimistic. Work-related issues or anything to do with your health looks positive and promising. Travel is likely. ● SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) This is a good day for financial negotiations, especially related to your job. However, when it comes to social events and enjoying good times with others, you might go overboard. Be smart and don’t do anything you’ll regret later, especially spending money. Don’t promise more than you can deliver. ● SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) This is a solid day for you. The moon is in your sign dancing nicely with Venus in a way that makes you want to socialize and have good times. Mercury is dancing with your ruler Jupiter, encouraging you to entertain at home and make big plans. ● CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You feel optimistic, which is why you’re full of big ideas and keen to talk to everyone. Short trips or chances to travel will appeal. It’s a strong day for those of you in sales, marketing, teaching and acting because your enthusiasm will be contagious and make others want to be in your company. ● AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Enjoy shmoozing with daily contacts like siblings, relatives and neighbours because conversations with others will be friendly and easygoing. However, when it comes to financial matters or shopping, be careful about going overboard, which you will be tempted to do. Keep your receipts. ● PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You make a great impression on others, which is why you will be admired by some people. You want to make big plans and set long-range goals. Be careful about overlooking details and being too optimistic. Your advantage is that you can see the big picture. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY Singer Rihanna (1988) shares your birthday.
