What do you think happens after people get married and make them wish they were single again?

2007-01-12 08:01:38 · 20 answers · asked by Anonymous in Marriage & Divorce

We have a guest list of 82, the ceremony is being held on the balcony of a tea room in a state park, and the reception will be inside. There will be no room to dance. I was kind of thinking we'd come in from the ceremony and eat and chat. The groom and I will mingle of course. I have love songs on cds to play in the background.

My question is should I plan some sort of activities? I keep seeing people ask questions about what activities they should have and such. Do we owe our guests some form of entertainment? We only expect them to stay for 2-3 hours.

We're trying to keep this a low-key affair, so if so, any suggestions would be appreciated.

What have you given up in your life to be with your significant other or maybe an ex? Did you later find out that you sacrificed too much to be with them?

I went out with this woman about 3 months ago. She said she couldn't date because she just had a bad breakup (this jackass basically started stalking her afterwards). I said no problem we can be friends anyway. About a month down the road we start going out to parties together and just when I thought we might start dating she came back with the same response. She still contended that she was attracted to me, but not ready to "get romantic." Over the last few weeks she has been texting me and she invited me out to lunch today. I arrived at her office to catch her checking out her ex's facebook page. I'm sorry but I don't understand. Does this make any sense to anyone?

I will go into as much detail as I possibly can about our current situation. We moved into our apartment complex last July. Our hellish neighbors moved into the apartment directly below ours in September. They immediately started playing loud music (we complained to the apartment office three times before it was dealt with). Every now and then we'd hear their music or television and my husband would slam a few times on the floor and it'll stop.

Just last week my husband was outside on our deck and the neighbor was below him talking on his cell phone to a friend explaining all the ways he wished he could kill my husband. My husband called the police. The police told my husband that nothing could be done but he'd talk to our neighbor. This caused my neighbor to directly threaten my husband (just minutes after the police officer left). My husband again called the police but was again told they could do nothing about our neighbor.

I am in an open relationship and it has worked for us for 10 yrs.now..we are both happy and get along so well.So I have a boyfriend on the side and he is so jealous and does not agree at all with this lifestyle and I feel smothered by him. I want to pursue both relationships butI dont want to hurt anybody.Should I tell the boyfriend if he cannot live that way ..leave..?I want him to be happy but I am also willing to fulfill all his fantasies if he just plays along.

i've met quite some guys that are only interested in you-know-what and so I wrote them off because I discovered that if they can't love a woman they can't even make a pleasing, dedicated lover and satisfy her emotionally, intellectually & above all...sensually.

ps) I've been hungry for love for a long time and at some point I was considering just "being with someone without any obligations"
but I learned men like that can't even make it last for a longer period of time, so that's why I say they don't make good lovers and ultimately can't make a woman happy.

he's never i around anymore, i hardly talk to him or even see him, he says that he still loves me but that i will never understand that he just really emjoys hanging out with his friends. He tells me he doesn't want to break up, but I feel like he doesn't care for me like before. I mean he doesn't even really come around to get laid anymore, because he is always with his friends......what should i do?

It's not that our Joe here is a complete slob...

It's just that maybe he can be as tidy but he does not seem to be as consistent or he can seem to be less worried and or seems to make less of a deal / fuss about tidying everything...

I am teasing, but seriously girls appear so much better there must be something in it?

Boy, I bet I will get so Gems from this one.

So dish me out some of the dirt now, am I right that in general Joe's is less tidier than Josephine's ?

I was dating a guy for 3 years off and on. He was verbally abusive and once physically abusive. He would go off and over exaggerate issues. I learned it's about power and control. I broke up for the upteenth time. I still love him and miss the good parts of him, but I know I am powerless to change him. He told me over and over again that he wouldn't change and if he went to therapy I would have to pay for it. Sounds like a real jerk huh? But he did have a loving side to him, just didn't manifest itself very well. Now, he's trying to hurt me again by trying to make me jealous. I cannot go back. I am just hurting alot. I don't know how I am going to finally get over him. I pray, I talk to others, but the pain and fear of not finding someone I could get close to is overwhelming! How does one get over it? It's been 5 weeks since break up but 1 week since he last tried to get me to talk to him during which I told him that he destroyed our relationship. He said I was selfish.
