Family & Relationships - 26 December 2006

ok, so there is this guy, and we've been hangin out, and hooking up for a few months now....at the beginning we decided that neither of us wanted a real relationship...so we're "special friends"....but now i care about him aaaallloooottt...and i want to make it an official relationship....how do i tell him this....we do things that boyfriend and girlfriend do....go out, talk on the phone, we see each other almost everyday...and he initiates the contact as often as i do...so do you think there is a chance he might be up for it????? and reallly....what do i say to him to let him know how i feel without scaring him away??? ok, i know we started out as "friends with benefits" but he acts more like my boyfriend and doesnt treat me like a booty call...he even went with me to my FAMILY christmas party, and wanted to go meet my dad....and i'm not sure(i've never been in this sort of relationship before) but i dont think that is a normal "friend with benefits" sort of behavior. Am i wrong?

My fiance and I are having some problems and I don't know where to draw the line from a biblical standpoint. If we get into a disagreement, it's okay and we can work things out through love fine. But he can sometimes have a temper, and when he starts not only speaking in anger, because I can handle that, but when he starts specifically saying negative things about me and hurting me I tend to walk away. For 2 reasons: -I feel disrespected - I get hurt, and when I get hurt I tend to get angry and say things I don't mean.

Okay, but everytime I do that he tells me that I'm impossible to solve problems with and that I always run away from my problems, and that it worries him for when we get married...

So basically my question is where do I draw the line between sticking through and resolving the problem even though I'm being disrespected and knowing when to get away to allow ourselves to cool off?

My girlfriend and I started daing about a year ago and we now live together and have a joint account together. But I feel like we dont make eachother happy any more. All we ever do is get irratated with eachother.

was told that he's been seeing high school girls. When i confronted him about it of course he denied it but this has been said before and he did the same thing. I really care alot bout him but at the same time my moma didn't raise a fool so what should i do? We have been dating each other off and on for about 8yrs. This girl who just turned 18 this year is going around telling everyone that he is her boyfriend. Now i'm a grown woman so how should i handle this because i'm not married to him. I thought my life was drama free until this disturbing incident.

My brother died this past Sunday and we are not sure how or why or if he meant to or anything. He is 34 and I am 17 and due to our age difference and family situation (he was in and out of hospitals for emotional problems) we never really saw eachother alot. I wrote this and it made me feel better, its corny but just thought I'd share anyway. I will probably add onto it later.

I’m your little sister
I’ll lay you down to rest
I’ll hold back my tears
Or at least I’ll try my best
You are my big brother
You made me the tomboy that I am
I never knew you well
But I’ll remember the best I can
Chrisy why did you die?
Our time was no enough
Would you have wanted me to cry?
Or do you want me strong and tough?
Did you mean to die that night?
What went wrong when you were alone?
Autopsy inconclusive
Cause of death unknown

last month. We had sex about two days ago for the first time while we were out of town (visiting my dad for the first time). Last night (when we returned) I called him to tell him goodnight and it wnt to voicemail (no biggy right). Well 24hours later and he still has not returned my call he simple sent a text telling me to 'sleep well'. His daughter arrived in town today, but I don't feel that is any excuse for being rude and not returning my phone. I am ready to drop him...is that too extreme for his rudeness????

My husband and I want children. Due to unforeseeable issues with health we have had no luck for five years. I do not want answers on fertility or ways to solve not being pregnant. I am looking for a constructive way to deal with my feelings. My sister just had a baby in November. All day she complained about how tired she was, how horrible it is to be a new parent. My husband and I have both stepped in to clean their home, provide meals, watch the baby when we can etc... But how do I explain to her that her constant complaining is like stab in my heart? I want so badly what she is complaining about. Additionally, we have looked into adoption and are considering that as well. My sister months ago made remarks about how it was so "easy" to just "order up a baby" and now calls her new nephew and niece on the other side of the family the "Asian invasion" I know I am touchy and angry but I don't want to be like this. I don't like this jealousy I feel.

If the boyfriend is the most wonderful, considerate and special guy, but his family gets on your nerves because they are so loud and obnoxious, do you think the relationship stands a chance? Any advice on how to cope or handle being around his family?

there is this guy at school that i like a lot. we see eachother during passing period every day, but besides the awkward two second eye contact, and awkwardness when we're standing next to eachother with friends, we don't say anything to each other. i just became friends with some of his friends and have just started eating lunch with them and him. i think there might be a chance that he likes me, but then again... i dunno. lot's of girls at my school agree with me that he is really cute, but i'm not sure if i'm out of my leauge. i'm kinda a shy person, so it's not like me to just go up and tell him i like him. what can i do to see if he likes me or find out if he is interested without embarrasing myself?

I'm 23 years old and I've been talking to a guy that is 15 years older than I am. I've been through a lot of bad relationships before and this guy seems so genuine and I really like him. He has never been married and does not have any children. Do you think it could work?

My best friend Amber knows how I feel about her, but she will not go out with me. I have known her for about 4 years now, and I want to be with her so bad, I have been hurting myself by punching walls and stuff. She used to tell people that I was waiting to go out with her, but then she skipped over straight to telling them that I was her best friend or her brother. I don't know how much more I can handle. I have basically waited for 4 years to be with her, but she says that we're too close. I think if we're so close, that's just a better reason for us to go out. We have so much in common. She keeps saying there's other girls out there, but the problem is, I don't want any other girl. I would do anything to be with my best friend Amber, I don't care if I only get to be with her for 2 seconds. I have been thinking about this stuff for about 5 months now, and I will admit I am jealous because she has a boyfriend. Can someone tell me how to get her to go out with me or something
