Family & Relationships - 27 November 2006

I watching this talk show the other day (the name escapes me) where this husband admitted to forcing his new bride to consume no less than 4000 calories a day in an effort to fatten her up (she was 120 when they got married) so that other men would not look at her and she would not be tempted to cheat on him. She was on the show as well and had ballooned to about 200 lbs..

And there was another husband who forced his wife to cut her waist-lenght hair after the wedding ceremony. She came out on stage sporting a men's military flattop. Again, the hubby did not want other men ogling his wife and she be not tempted to cheat.

I found such behavior from these insecure guys appalling!

So have you had a similar experience or know someone who is or has?

A family is at the dinner table. The son asks his father, "Dad, how many kinds of boobies are there?



The father, surprised, answers, "Well, son, there's three kinds of breasts.

In her twenties, a woman's breasts are like melons, round and firm.

In her thirties to forties, they are like pears, still nice but hanging a bit.

After fifty, they are like onions. "Onions?" the son asks.

Yes, you see them and they make you cry"



This infuriated his wife and daughter, so the daughter said, "Mum, how many kinds of 'willies' are there?"



The mother, surprised, smiles and answers, "Well dear, a man goes through three phases.

In his twenties, his willy is like an oak tree, mighty and hard.

In his thirties and forties, it is a birch, flexible but reliable.

After his fifties, it is like a Christmas tree." "A Christmas tree?" the daughter asks.

Yes, dead from the root up and the balls are for decoration only."

Would you continue to date somebody if you knew that if you got married you would struggle financially all your life? How valuable is security to you? Some experts (including eHarmony's creator) say to not settle for less than what your ideal dating (and eventual marriage) partner is. How long/how much sacrifice are you willing to make for the perfect man/woman? What if the person you are seeing had all but one quality (like not a lot of money)? Could you still be happy?

I dated someone for 3 years. He was the love of my life and I would have done anything for him. A year and half ago he decided he didnt love me anymore and wanted to experience other things. I have been strong and left him completely alone, but my heart hasnt healed and I still miss him every day. I dont want to be with anyone else. I dont want to live this way. What should I do?

Please, no smart comments (I have heard those on here before) I really need serious advice & serious answers. I have been dating a man named Keith for 8 months. At the very first he told me upfront that he was married but separated. It did bother me because of that but he told me they had been living apart for 1 ½ years but just hadn’t gotten a divorce because he had an 11 year old daughter named Sara that didn’t know they were separated. He has this construction job that only allowed him to come home twice a month on the weekends. So when he did get home he would pick up Sara and stay at his cousins house (this is where he moved into after he moved from his wife) He never explained to Sara they were separated and she never asked. She just enjoyed the time with her dad. Shortly before he and I started talking he got a local job where I live (his daughter lives 100 miles away) He also got an apartment here.

I am a 43 year old, divorced woman. Tall, blonde, college-educated, and happy so far with my business'es success.

I was married for 17 years when my ex came home and told me he had been having a relationship with a woman in her 20s & he wanted to do things without me knowing. Things like trying drugs, having sex with multiple people (yes, both male and female), jump out of an airplane, go in a deep-sea submarine to the deepest part of the ocean, go on a walk until he couldn't anymore and not care where he ended up...he jumped an airplane and left me and three kids in a state that was thousands of miles away from any of my family. He decided he didn't feel it was his responsibility anymore to our children because he had already given up so much over the past 17 years.

After somewhat recovering from this hit upside the head, I have met someone else. He absolutely adores me, values me, and has stepped up to the plate many times....why can't I seem to enjoy making love anymore?

i have cheated on my wife several times in the past. when we met we were cheating. one thing led to another and we fell in love. she stopped cheating but i was so use to it i kept going. recently she found out that i had sex with a young lady and that it was a possibility thaty she was pregnant by me. at this point my wife decided to cheat with a co-worker. we sat down and talked about it and we decided to give it one last try. i have let every woman in my life alone and have totally committed my life to my wife because i want to keep my family together. we have three beautiful kids and i want to do the right thing so that i could watch my children grow up. i have joined thye church and have given my life to god. it has only been two months but i have not had the desire to be with another woman. i love my wife very much but cheating had become so addictive that i felt like i had to do it. a large reason for the cheating was because i knew she would forgive me if she caught me.

Ok, well here's the thing. My supposed best friend started going out with my crush of 6 years. She knew I liked him and is going out with him anyway. She really hurt my feelings and she acts like she did absolutley nothing wrong. I try to tell her that she's hurt me, but she just gets mad. What should I do?

I am getting married in 3 weeks and what has started off as a simple small wedding has turned into much more than that. My mom has made my wedding into this huge event that even I'm no longer looking forward to attending. I'm an extremley shy person and only wanted my close family and friends there to celebrate my big day with me and my mom and "wedding planner" have invited all these people. They keep telling me that I want this but I keep telling them I don't. They just wouldn't listen. Now I have this huge wedding with this huge reception and my mom has told me two days ago that now I have to pay for my cake and DJ. Granted I know both so got a really good price and only need $550 but how in the heck do I get that money in 3 weeks? I'm so stressed out and when people ask me if I'm excited and I can't help but say "not really". I just want it to be over with!! Not to mention my fiancee and I are young and had our first child young and we just wanted something small and simple

Its been about a quarter and two weeks into the school year and im still lonely at school. Can some one help me get out of this and make me happy with myself, while still making lots of friends?

I think he feels guilty
I don't want him to think I am overbearing or don't want him to go out and have fun... I want him to make his own decisions.

On the same hand, though, I feel he has disrespected me in a way. Sure, it's not technically cheating, but I have a problem with him seeing naked women dance in front of him.

The worst part is he "asked" me f it was alrght before he went yesterday morning. I said, "do whatever you want to, I can't tell you what to do". That's totally true, but I didn't think he would really do it. Just because he does whatever he wants dosen't mean it wont hurt me.

I just can't imagine the man I love more than anyone in the world with fake **** wiggeling in his face. He is so much better than that.

We have been together over a year and this is the first time. I love him with all my heart and soul and, for me, he is the only man in the world. I only have eyes for him.
I really don't want it to happen again. Should I say anything

im having my 14th birthday party in a few weeks, and i made the HORRIBLE mistake of telling everyone i was inviting about it before asking if they hated/didnt want to be around anyone.
1: michelle hates lauren because michelle thinks lauren is a whore. she thinks that because lauren breaks up with one guy one day, and gets a new bf the other! i agree, kinda whorish. but lauren might have her own reasons for doing that and i think you souldnt hate someone for that. sophie and emily dislike her to. but will still come for sure.

2: ashley hates michelle because ashley thinks michelle is just being to mean this year. i also agree with ashley. but michelle has said sorry at least once. ashley just doesnt want to beleive that.

now i have considered un-inviting lauren. but i hate doing that and lauren is practically my BEST FRIEND COMING.
and overall i've decided that their all invited and that if somebody doesnt come, its their own fault but i WOULD like them to.
any sudgesstions?

I know to most people this sounds penty and selfish. I've been married for 25 years and it seems like my husband would like helping others than me. We have to get into an arguement before he'll do some of the things I ask him to do for me. Which it sould be anything in the house and he starts calling himself a house b-----.He'll be in the middle of doing something for me and somebody else gets his attention. He then drops what he's doing for me and go help them. It's not just for women either. So guys help me understand my man.
