Family & Relationships - 12 December 2006

I am thinking about being a SAHM once I my husband and I have kids. He makes around $40K a year. I want to hear from SAHM's whose husbands have about the same or less of a salary and are living on that budget-

How hard was it to quit your job and then live on an income about this size?
What did you give up to make ends meet?
Do you supplement your income at all thru part time/at home work?

I asked a similar question on a different part of Yahoo answers and didnt quite get what I wanted..
I understand that if I really want to stay home that I can make it work if I sacrifice enough, but I just want to hear about people's personal experiences in working with this size a budget.

Thanks!

There's this girl I like who I met a few weeks ago. One of my friends is pretty sure she doesnt like me while another friend says she asks him questions about me almost every day.
A)How do I know if she likes me?
B)If she doesn't, how do I get her to like me?

Why don't guys tell your while your single that they like you? I've been having this problem lately. I have a boyfriend and love him, i just wish guys weren't so stupid and tell me that they like me until I'm taken. Why do guys do that?

Answers to this question will be included in a survey - i just want your opinion. Okay - you got two guys. Which one would you fall for? ~~GUY 1: Handsome guy who has the balls to walk up and talk to you, but doesn't know what to say because you're so beautiful. Offers to buy you a drink. You two talk about where yall are from, what you do for a living, favorite foods, etc. Asks for your phone number and asks for your opinion on where to go for dinner. ~~GUY 2: Handsome guy that, you KNOW, has the balls to walk up and talk to you, and knows exactly what to say in any situation you put him in. He asks you to buy him a drink in a cocky, yet funny, way. You ask him the basic questions (i.e. where u from, what u do) and he keeps you guessing/curious. He asks if you have email, and tells you time and place where you're going to have dinner. ~@~ Which guy would you pick, and why? The more descriptive the better.

Recently, my ex-husband stopped paying child support/spousal support. I could not afford to take him to court, so I filed with child services. Once I found since he was not following his court order, that my attorney would most likely be paid by him and child services could take 6 months to 1 yr to get my support payments I went ahead and hired an attorney. NOW, my ex hired an attorney who told my attorney that I HAVE to close the Child service case out in order to go against him in court. Is this true. I would hate to cancel child service and find that was BS. Thank you

All of my friends have been in a relationship with a guy. I'm the only person who never had a boyfriend. Its been bothering me this whole year. most of the time all they talk about is there boyfriend. I've never been on a real date either. I don't get it no guy has notinced me once at the high school. now its my sophomore year and i still don't have a boyfriend yet. most of the guys at the school just like girls who are dumb ,real skinny. I'm 15 years old and still never kissed a guy or had sex or been in a real realationship before.
