Dear Richard Madeley: ‘My housemate and I kissed and now she's avoiding me'
Dear Richard, I'm living in a shared house with one man and two women, one of whom is an old friend from university. We are all in our early 30s. We get on pretty well but tend to socialise with our own groups of friends outside the house – we don't do big Sunday lunches together or anything like that. A couple of weeks ago, one of the women – the one I don't know well – asked me if I wanted to go out to the pub. We went for a few drinks, and then we kissed on the way back to the house. Nothing has been said since, and I get the feeling she's avoiding me. I don't want her to feel uncomfortable about what happened, but I worry that if I try to clear the air I'll just make things worse. It's fine if she thinks it was a mistake – while I don't exactly hate the idea of our revisiting some sort of romantic situation, I haven't fallen head-over-heels in love or anything, plus I don't want to upset the 'chemistry' of the house. It's just that it now feels really awkward. Should I try to talk to her? –Ben, via email Dear Ben Hmm. I've always been cautious about initiating 'clear the air' conversations. In my experience, they can have the opposite effect, leaving the atmosphere clouded by confusion, embarrassment – and even antagonism. Often the wiser course is simply to let things lie and resolve themselves with the passage of time. If this woman is avoiding you, it's precisely because she doesn't want an air-clearing exchange with you. Maybe she's simply embarrassed about your brief clinch on the way home, or she feels guilty about it for some reason, or she just plain regrets it. Whatever the reason, she obviously doesn't want to talk about it. You should be sensitive to that. And in any case, it's hardly a big deal, is it? It was only a kiss or two (or maybe three?). These things happen. And if she wants to pretend that it didn't, I'd go along with it if I were you. Least said, soonest mended.

Man, 20, appears in court on terror charges over arson attacks and bomb hoax after police 'foil lone wolf attack on King's Guards'
A 20-year-old man has appeared in court charged with terrorism offences after a series of alleged arson and bomb hoax incidents, as police foiled a 'lone wolf attack on King's Guards'. Ilyas Akhtar, of Slough, Berkshire, spoke only to confirm his personal details when he appeared in the dock at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Saturday. The 'lone wolf' was arrested on suspicion of possessing an offensive weapon and arson in Slough last week at the Salt Hill Activity Centre, near Windsor Castle. On Sunday he was rearrested over alleged terror offences. Military personnel at a barracks close by were told not to leave the grounds in uniform for two days amid the security scare. Akhtar, who was dressed in a grey tracksuit during the three-minute hearing, was charged on Friday after an investigation by Counter Terrorism Policing South East, with authorisation from the Crown Prosecution Service. He is accused of preparing acts of terrorism, possessing information useful to terrorists, carrying out two arson attacks and causing a bomb hoax. The arson charges relate to fires at Salt Hill Activity Centre in Slough on May 31 and Slough Ice Arena on Montem Lane on May 14, police said. The bomb hoax charge relates to an incident at the town's Asda supermarket on Telford Drive on May 9. The supermarket closed almost 90 minutes early after a member of staff found a suspicious package. No indication of a plea and no bail application was made at the court hearing. District Judge Louisa Cieciora told Akhtar he will next appear in custody at the Old Bailey on June 20. A source told the Sun last night that Akhtar was believed to have been plotting an attack: 'The suspect is feared to have been plotting an attack. 'Police informed bosses at the barracks and measures were taken immediately despite him already being in custody. 'It was a huge security scare. But it was in the interests of everyone's safety.' The warning was circulated to Victoria Barracks in Windsor - home to the 1st Battalion Coldstream Guards. Detective Superintendent Andy Penrith, of Thames Valley Police, previously said: 'We understand that these charges for terrorism offences will be concerning to our communities in Slough. 'I want to reassure all our residents that Thames Valley Police is working closely with our communities and partners in Slough as well as our colleagues in counter-terrorism.' He said patrols would be stepped up in the area and urged anyone with concerns to speak to officers or police community support officers. 'Due to the ongoing court proceedings, our officers and staff won't be able to provide any further details on this specific case, but we will be there to listen and support our communities,' he added.
