Family & Relationships - 14 September 2006

(my husband works, we have 4 kids, he keeps the only car, taking it to work his 10-14 hrs/day-5 days/week, we live paycheck to paycheck, kids just qualified for reduced lunches at school, there is no public transportation)----should i be concerned that my husbands just gives his mother $50-100 each month for shopping before i even have a chance to pay the bills? the last two months, i have had to skip a car payment just to offset his generousity. she calls crying to him each month that they are broke, living on my father-in-laws disability and retirement. i have more than enough wisdom to know that the woman does not know how to budget money and goes to the malls to shop for junk she doesn't need, just an impulse of hers. and he has never borrowed money from them, so its not like he owes them money compensation. i have respect for them, but think he shouldn't just give her so much money. i don't get to shop at the malls and my kids have to wear thrift store and walmart clothes.

What are your thoughts on having a friend of the opposite sex while being married?

I grew up as a tom boy with several male platonic friends. Now as a married woman, my husband forbids me to contact any of them. Some of these males I have known since I was a kid, and my thought is that if they really wanted me as more than a friend, they would have made that obvious at some point in the last 10-15 years. My husband firmly believes that girls can be friends with guys, but guys can absolutely not be just friends with girls.

Do women only have so much "sex" in them? Do they get a "Only 100 Sexes Left" warning and race to the alter?

Is that why sex slows down so much after marriage? Do you get a "recharge" of more sex when you want to have a baby?

Why are my friends so surprised that their marriages fail when they marry less than a year after meeting?

I don't understand this... I have 3 friends who all have married their spouses within a year after meeting them and then are devistated when their marriage doesn't last. I try so hard to be sympathetic to their needs and I do truly feel sad for their situation, but I can't say that it shouldn't be expected. I feel this is why the divorce rate is so high in America. They marry young and they marry fast after meeting. Like I said, right now I have 3 friends that are greiving... how can I be sensitive to their needs as well as being honest with how I feel about how they went about it? All three friendships are very important to me.
