Family & Relationships - 21 August 2006

My boyfriend of 5 years is the sweetest, most thoughtful man ever. He's like my bestfriend. We have the same interests, we enjoy the same sports, we do almost everything together.

However, eversince we've been going out, our sex life is mediocre at best. Once a month is as often as we do it. At first it bothered me but I'm having so much fun with him that I let it pass and I'm kinda used to it now.

We talked about it and it doesn't seem to bother him.

Unfortunately, one of our closest friends told me that my boyfriend is going to ask me to marry him soon. I don't know what to tell him if he does. I don't want to lose him but we just don't have that physical chemistry and...

Ever since our friend let my boyfriend's plan slip, I've often wondered ... is it ok to marry your bestfriend?

well this guy that i have liked forever now wants to hook up with me in more ways than one... but i kinda have a boyfriend but we have our own issues this isn't one of those "dont leave the one you love for the one you like" type of things because i dont love my boyfriend. should i test the waters with this other guy or stop with my boyfriend right now?

we also arent really exclusive or anything so does this even matter

I have several siblings in various states (between ages 36-16 years). They all seem to resent me. When I had called or emailed them they act all cold and distant. They do not respond to my emails or keep me up to date with their lives or even changes of address and phone numbers. I always hear things second hand from my parents.

When my birthdays came around they never acknowledge it, they were not at my wedding and haven't done anything for major holidays. However I have called them on their birthdays, attended their weddings and birth of thier children and try to keep them up to date. It's been years and I've slowly stopped contacting them because they have not acknowlege me.

I am very close with my parents, in-laws, my best friends and co-workers. I have great relationships and a wonderful life. But my sibilings ignore me. My mother is getting remarried and I'm closer to my soon to be step-siblings than my actual sibilings. Any suggestions on how to get over this resentment?

I feel like there would be a lot of uncomfortabel questions if I told them the truth: "why were you holding fifi out of the attic window anyway?" or "does this have anything to do with him chewing up your favorite shoes yesterday?" etcetera. I don't want to disillusion them about me since I'm their dad, so wouldn't it be best for everyone if I tell them that the dumb dog just ran away and got lost?

My future MIL is paying for the rehersal dinner but she can't decide if she wants us to just invite the bridal party or out of town guests as well, I keep telling her that it is up to her but she won't make a decision. Since she's paying for it, I think it should inevitably be up to her (with my approval of course) and I am trying to keep the peace. Should I be more decisive about this?

of favors for co-workers & friends. I am the type of person that is really quiet and keeps to himself. I am wondering why people keep asking me for favors when I really want nothing to do with anybody. I know that this is not the category to ask this type of question, but I will get the most responces here.
