Family & Relationships - 21 August 2006

I tend to run away from responsibility, Ive struggled with depression all my life. Knowing this, my best friend, against my pleading, fell for me and talked me into dating her and then into marrying her. I mistaked "not knowing what I want" for "I can handle anything" and we married. I told her before we even started dating I knew a few things, like I dont want kids (she does) and I dont want to live in this area (she does). Didnt faze her. She was driven to do good things back then, plus she was hot. Since we got married 5 years ago, weve degraded drastically. Im sure my depression has brought her down. Shes given up changing the world and shes gained a lot of weight. I was frugal and never had any debt before we married. Now were $30,000 in debt and we live on her parents property. Ive never done the manly thing before. What should we do? Keep trying to work it out and save the marriage, or divorce and save ourselves? No one in her family has ever divorced and no one in mine hasn't.

What should I do to get my ex back in my life for good?

I have been with the same guy for six years. We bought a house together six months ago but now he is telling me that he does not want to be together right now. He says that he needs a time out to have fun with his friends and not worry about when he is going to be home etc. We have never had problems like this so I do not know what to do? I think part of it may be because it is about time for us to move to the next step in our lives and get married. Please help!

Do you have any words of wisdom to share with a confused 19 year old?

I'm kinda seeing this guy. I really like him, we have a lot of 'fun' together, (read between the lines there...)

The problem is, I really wish we were official. I hate hiding the fact that we are... well... yeah... cause it makes me feel like we are doing something wrong. We are both single, I'm only 4 years younger than him, and we get on really well, as friends as well as 'friends'. I have tried to broach the subject, but I can't find the words to outright ask him why he's not my boyfriend, without making it sound jokey. More than that, it doesn't feel right to ask. Half of me wants to just relax and enjoy his company and companionship, but the other half wants to be able to be certain that we are together, rather than just hoping he feels like I do. I really would like to be able to kiss him when I get home from work, rather than have to wait till we are alone.
It's not that I'm scared of losing him, I;m just scared of never having him to begin with...

Mysterious and honest. Is that possible?

A woman likes me for being mysterious and honest. Honest is not hard but being mysterious, that's more illusive, for lack of a better adjective. How does one keep up the mystery factor? ...while being honest. I'd figure they cross each other out in a sense. Thanks
