Family & Relationships - 13 October 2006

We are having a destination wedding in Jamaica (not MY decision..OUR decision). We sent letters out to our family members (who pretty much already knew). My fiance's grandma came over while we were at his parents house and went on and on about how we obviously didn't want her at the wedding because she is NOT going to that dirty disgusting place (we're going to an all-inclusive resort...). I sat there for quite awhile listening to her badmouth my wedding (as well as my engagement ring) and I finally stood up and said "If you want *****, go somewhere else. This is our wedding." She apparently called me a little brat and left (I had walked out of the room). She called my fiance's aunt (who I'm very close with) telling her she better watch out because I'll turn on her soon too, she has a bitter taste in her mouth about this that won't go away from a long time, blahblahblah....So, I emailed her that night (everyone said to just leave it alone and not even talk to her) apologizing for what

I think I may be pregnant (which is a wonderful thing!). When had my first daughter, my company paid 100% maternity leave while I was out (for an entire 12 weeks). But my new company is small and they offer no such leave. I've heard about the family leave act in California, but don't know much about it. Does anyone have any information on this....ie: how much they pay, how long I can take off, etc. Thank you for your input in advance!

I was in a nice relationship that finishe because she didn't want to work things out after a minor bump we had, I was left alone so I had to rebuild my life on my own basically, she asked me to not to contact her, I respected that. She went to hang out with other people and meet new guys (I don't know if she dated, but at least I know she went out with guys), I missed her and had a hard time recovering, but with a lot of efforts I made it and I think I am almost done. Now when the recovering is over (or almost over) and I can finally feel comfortable by myself, she started sending me emails, 2 at the moment, first to remember the good memories and how happy she was, saying thanks for all those moments, I said I hope she is doing ok and I made it very brief. Now there is another email that I don't want to read, it's like going backwards. It looks like she is trying again and didn't find someone to love out there, should I try this or what?. I have hopes of someday meeting someone nice.

My friend just turned 26, her husband is 25. She got pregnant unexpectedly and had a little girl 4.5 years ago. Her and her husband got married soon after and they are very happy. Their second daughter is 8 months old, she took a year and a half to conceive.

My friend was using condoms after their youngest daughter’s birth, but got pregnant 3-4 months after giving birth! She is now 20 weeks along and isn’t very happy about the pregnancy. She is a SAHM, and they just moved out a state and her husband started a new job. She said she was not physically or emotionally ready for another baby and after this one they are not having anymore. Her husband was upset at first but now is happy to have another baby.

She finds out today what they are having, I am trying to help her get excited by helping her look for baby stuff and assure her everything will be okay because their first baby was unplanned and its has turned out great.

What else can I do to help her out?

I have been seeing my BF for 4 years and till a year back I thought we had complete honesty with each other till I found an archive where he was sex chatting a woman in Tawain .I was devastated since I thought our sex life was good and confronted him and he said it was a mistake and would not do it again .He did stop but just for a while.Since I have to be away from him for 3-4 months at a strech i realised he may be doing it in my absence and i kept mum but what shocked me is that now he uses another ID unknown to me and cybers with her while I am asleep upstairs.Its very insinuaiting .He removes all traces before I wake.I feel I cannot marry this man as I will not be able to trust him but on the other hand he is very generous caring and a nice man at heart though our sex life had gone down because he fulfills his desires online. I am in a dilemna as to whats the solution as I am sure he will cyber again once I am away.Should I confront him .He is a 56 year old man and I am 46

My boyfriend and I are going to the wedding of one of my work colleague's. I've known him for two years and we've hung out a few times outside of work. We're not super close, but I would consider him more than just an aquaintence. We want to give money and a card as a gift at the reception. How much is appropriate for my boyfriend and I to give them? Is $100 too much or too little? It's a big and expensive wedding. Does that make a difference?

Any help is much appreciated!

My boyfriend and I were invited to a wedding of friends he used to have from highscool or something like that.

We RSVP'd and all that good stuff. We tried to meet up with the couple before we went (he hasn't seen them in 4 or 5 years) and now we both lost our jobs.

We already had to borrow money for rent, and don't have a enough for this coming month. Yesterday, I got my cat from my mothers house from a play date and she is sick. She through up and she barely moves. What if she gets worst and has to go to the vet?

We have $50.00... I don't think we should drive 2 hours to go to a wedding, especially when we will need gas to make it to school....

We haven't even seen or spoken to this couple... is it wrong to suggest this to him?

My boyfriend is against the idea of me talking with my ex bfs.. I asked him kindly to keep my past lovers as simple friends (very limited relations, like hi merry chrismas, happy thnksgiving etc.. ) he was like ok.. all right , but you tell me everything unusual that happens


Well yestedrday I was talking with my ex and before saying gooodbye all of a sudden he saidI love you .. And it sounded so sincere then when I asked him if he meant it he said we'll talk about it another day..

I wasgonna ask him to never call me anymore but he didn't give me a chance to finish what I was saying



When I told my bf about it as I promised to do he got sooooo mad at me said I gave this garbage (my ex) the possibility to disrespect me and disrespect him ..

was he right to get mad at me ? what was my fault ? ...

:(

Next year my oldest will be off to college. Then it will be me and my youngest who will be in 8th grade. Once she graduates from high school in 2012, I will be all alone in a very small town (5600 people). I have a decent job. But will struggle a little without child support. And I don't have family here. My family lives out West. So I have thought about moving out there next year or after my youngest is out of high school (I will be 43 then). I am scared of the challenge. But it is comforting knowing that I will have family near that can help if necessary. But then again, living in a small town does seem better because I already have a job and the cost of living is less.

My boyfriend of 4 yrs, already owns a clothing line he owns a contstruction co. and now he wants to go and buy a bar and run it, and turn it into a poker room/restraunt/bar...I think it will be the last straw and it will ruin our relationship. He says he will hire me to be there at night with him while he runs things so i can still be there, but i have a 5 yr old, i cant be taking him with me there? and i just know he will be there all the time especially in the begining.We just broke up last night and got back together bcuz he said he would make me a priority for now on, and then throws this at me...what do i do>? I am a nanny during the day i run it out of our house, so its not that easy to just pick up and leave, i want to make it work but im giving him my all and i dnt feel he is. Isnt everyone who owns a bar divorced or single anyway? How do i get it through to my bf that we are more important than a bar? what do i do
