Family & Relationships - 25 October 2006

I'm in a bad situation; I've been married over 17 years. I have known a male friend for about 2 yrs. He has been coming over our house for about a year. He knew my husband first, now he is more my friend than his. He just married a girlfriend he has been living with for about 12 years two months ago. They have a 12 yr. old. He has told me that he doesn't trust her because she cheated on him two years ago. He said that he isn't in love with her, and they have nothing in common. He didn't tell me that he got married, another friend told me. When I ask him about it, he said that he forgot, and he only married her for the children. He has never shown us any pictures of his family. What do you make of this. I have feelings for him, but I have never told him, nor has he come out and told me that he has any feelings for me. Please tell my what you think, and what would you do in this situation.

We have been friends for 2years and he has been divorced for 2 years. Nothing has ever happened between us, we haven't had any conversations on that level. However, lately I've been having dreams about us getting together and having really strong feeling for him. My family and friends say that he likes me and they have been saying that for over a year now. So should I tell him and see what he says or just leave it alone and see what happens?

Well me and my boyfriend were having a debate about this topic the other day. I feel that as "the man" in the relationship you should for example, take out the trash, cut the grass, wash the car, OFFER to pay for dinner when out, hold doors, put together electronical stuff...and so on! He feels like it’s NO such thing as a "guy role" if something needs to be done then it needs to get done NO matter who does it!

I just feel like what’s the point of being with someone if they cant be there to do the stuff you may not a be good at! I do feel like those things are "guy things" and I don’t want to do them and probably not good at them! I feel that a man should do everything in his power to make his women happy! He should spoil her. I'm no gold digger or nothing I just want a man that’s going to be a MAN! And not say you do it......but instead say it’s already done! What do you think....Ladies and Males?

a guy who says to me 'there are one thousand more Sarah's in the world, but only one of you and I can't afford to lose you.'

Sarah (not her real name!) is the guys gf. I am hist best friend, but there has always been something more between us. Do I just move on? It's quite unfair I think!

Do you think that when a man and a woman look in each others eyes for the first time, they know right away there will be a lasting relationship? Or am I just dreaming a dream that won't come true? I would appreciate honest answers please.

I liked a gurl the day i saw her for the first time.We used to work for the same company.I came to know that she has a boy friend.I am thinkin of proposing to her as i feel its not bad to express ur love to someone even if he/she is comitted.If she accepts my proposal i want to marry her.I know my chances are 100:0 but i have planned to propose to her as i want her to know that i love her as i just cant remain as a frnd thru out her life. I want only 2 things happen, either she accepts my proposal or just forget her n never try to contact her. Am i doing the correct thing or not?

A man and I started talking about the possibility of having a friends with benefits relationship. We both are out of a relationship and are not ready for another committed relationship, not ready to date. I am enjoying just being me.

Before I made up my mind I wanted to know how many other people he is currently sleeping with. He said he didn't want to answer that and he doesn't kiss and tell. I told him I didn't want to know who there were but wanted to know if it was one or two or many. I don't think my question was unreasonable and for some reason it would make a difference to me if he had many many friends. Was my question improper in a friends with benefits relationship?

When I was younger my mom told me that if I chose to have sex that it wouldn't be what it was suppose to be unless I was in love with the guy. Now that I am older, I have had sex since I was young Too young and know anything but now I am married to a wonderful man and our sex is unbieveable. Do you think what my mom and everybody else said is true or he is just better in bed?

My fiance and I had some argument yesterday. If some body can tell me who is write and who is wrong. He wants me to work after marriage which i understand. That was one thing. And then he said because my family dont have many freinds and relative. He said how come we dont have so many so i told him, no my dad have some freinds but i dont know why he have some of this kind of issues in his mind. Then he said i (mean my self)
dont have any savings so i need to listen to him and pay my credit cards in a manner (honestly i am trying my best since i have tow jobs) Then he said, he dont want me to come california from dallas once we get married to see my mom often, and he is afraid of my attachment to my mom and he said who will take care of her. I told him my dad will. I also told him i will buy my own tickets if i need to. So i dont know i got really upset and told him you think one more time about marriage and I shut my cell phone since then. I dont know Is he is write?

and my husband. He recently got her involved with a company that he is starting. Now, she is beginning, once again, to take over our lives. He is a very powerful, take-charge guy, but has never, ever been able to stand up to her and would not support me if I did. She abandoned him as a child for her career, leaving him with others for weeks at a time while she traveled, and lived as she pleased. My husband takes the anger that he feels for her, out on me. He refuses to confront her. Any advice? Thanks in advance!!!

even if nobody asked, he jumps at the first chance he has to say he's not gay. He looks straight, even though he's kinda "sensitive" (he's really quiet and likes soft music), but now i'm starting to wonder. I am a ubermacho, but wouldn't mind him coming out of the closet if it were the case, question is, should i touch the subject or just let it be?

My mother and I have a good relationship,but she really don't like my husband. They have a bad past. Anyways she wasn't really happy when i told her about my other daughter but then she came around but it was only 7 months ago when i had her. I am scard to tell her. So please give me a really good idea on telling her. I am not good at telling people things when I know they wont be happy about it.

Is there a web site that gives advice on how to split up with the minimum of trouble? I'd need to move out, but can't afford to pay a big mortgage and a rent. Would I have to live for 2 years like that before I could get a divorce. I have 3 kids (18 1/2, 15,13) and don't want their education or residence disrupted. Clearly and unfortunately it will impact on their lives though. Where can I find somewhere that tells me how the kids are impacted emotionally and what's best to do? Please no wisecracks on don't do it and you won't have this trouble. This is serious.
