Family & Relationships - 29 October 2006

I am 7 mths preg. w/ a little girl, that belongs to a man I love. We also have a 3 yr old together, and I have a 10yr old that calls him dad, because he has been his dad for the last 6 yrs. This man has problems though. He is an alcoholic and Meth addict. He was clean for almost a year, but then fell off the wagon in June, managed to lose everything, his car, tools, home, me and his kids. He told me he is going to be going back to rehab this week. I believe that he will. He is such a good man when he is sober, but he has wronged me very much when he started drinking again, and when he started doing meth again, he even cheated on me about 3 months ago. That means while I was pregnant. I want my children to have a father, and when he is clean he is everything we need and want. I just don't know if it is worth my time to take him back after he completes 3 months of rehab. I know he wants me and I love him. Do I risk it again, or let him fend for himself and earn me back?

Person A: Someone with whom you feel the world melt with their kiss and they treat you like the man/woman you deserve to be treated like but they are not a good provider. Just say this person keeps pressuring you to have a child yet quits a new job about every few weeks and it leaves you both unsteady on paying your bills and always on the move.

Person B: This person is cute bot not very sensitive nor has much of a clue about how to treat the opposite sex (sometimes hurts your feelings) but is a great provider, holding down steady work, taking you and your family on fun outings and is great with children.

Very close relationship with my mother until 7 years ago. I had my name removed from the roles of the Seventh day Adventist church. She was very angry...told me if I rejected the beliefs of their church I was rejecting her and my father...tried to maintain the relationship but was always being condemned (they believe you go to hell if you leave their church). She even hurt my children by not showing up for things important to them.

One year ago, she became angry because I wouldn't go to Hawaii with all the Adventist relatives she said, "you just don't want to be part of the family." She made it so. Silent treatment for two weeks..didn't tell me my grandfather had surgery twice...changed plans to spend Christmas with us..left our gifts in a garbage while we were away...then wants to know "what's the matter with me?"

Something happens every 2-3 weeks. I am always walking on eggshells. I have been very happy with no communication. She is the same...always right!!!

It's been about 2 weeks since my boyfriend has called me at my home, I don't have a cell, not allowed. But if I call him from someone else's phone not only will he answer but he'll call back! We didn't have any problems except I wouldn't do certain private acts in public. I don't know what his problem is. Should I leave him alone?

I went out with this guy for about 7 months, we knew each other for 2 years, and well I wasn't happy with him, he treated me real bad. One night at his house, his best friend went for a walk with me, and he kissed me, and after I broke up with my ex, he was there to talk with me. His best friend told me he cheated on me many times, and the first date we went on, well I had to tell him to lay off because it was obvious all he wanted from me was sex, I told him to put a stop to that and since then he's been ok and making me happy. My best friend tells me that i shouldn't go out with him, because he's only going to keep me involved in my ex's life, whose being a real jerk now since he learned im with his best friend. Well its safe to say they aren't best friends anymore.

I guess this is really 2 questions. one, am I his rebound girl, because he recently got out of a relationship to, and two, should I of went with my ex's best friend?

I'm just wondering if guys find it to be a turnoff. I'm not a kid, I'm in my mid-twenties. I'm attractive, intelligent and motivated, good personality. But despite all this, would you not give me a chance because I have a child?

Basically, I have been dating my boyfriend for 3 years and we are talking engagement/marriage. He is very supportive and caring to me. Of course we have small fights here and there but for the most part we have a amazing relationship. BUT here is my "problem"... when we first met I was 18, he was 24. I was a virgin, he had been with 5 other women (all different ages, shapes). When our relationship was in the early stages he would talk openly about his exs (now he never does cause he knows I get upset) and it would always make me jealous. Even to this day, I still get mad that he has been with others and I will never be. I would never cheat on him, and I can't imagine myself without him, but I cant help but get jealous of his experience. Sometimes I even feel like he still wants to be with some of his ex's because he told me (early in our relationship) that this one was great at sex etc.. and I feel like because i am so inexperienced I can never be as good, please help me b4 I go crazy

We want to send out 2 waves of invites. We are going to send the 1st batch 8 weeks prior with a response requested by 4 weeks prior to the event and then the 2nd batch will go out based on the response from the first 4 weeks prior to the event with a reply requested 2 weeks prior to the event. How can we do this w/out it being tacky?

I got engaged to my wonderful partner last June. We are both very shy and the pressure from his family regaurding wedding plans got to me especially as I grew up in New Zealand and have only been living in his country for two years and have no really support or assets with which to put on a big do. In the end my now husband and I decided to leg it back to a lovely village a few hours away where I had lived and worked for a time for a small xmas eve wedding in the local registery office. Unfortunately there were dis agreements over the arrangments and two days before we were set to get hitched his sister rang us to condemn our wedding and her approval of any further celebrations. We went anyway but told all his family that we had call it off which has deliberated much guilt. Whilest at the same time all my family know and are pleased . So now how do we throw a celebration? I personaly hate the lies but it's so important to my husband that he doesn't rock the family boat.?

A few days ago a girl told me I was hot. Now that I try to speak to her seems she's avoiding me, but not in a snobby way. What should I do? How should I approach this?
