Family & Relationships - 22 January 2007

My brother-in-law is getting married. The bride and I don't really get along, that is putting it mildly. His bride to be has made several comments to let me know that she is only tollerating me and my kids being at the wedding. She has made comments that all the Siblings and spouses are in the wedding party. ( I am not) She has says that the only way to be able to tollerate me is if she is drinking. She has even called my son who is mentally retarded a retard that is going to ruin her day. My brother in law and I have always had an extremly close relationship, but now when we talk it is strained. Most of the family including my brother in law have heard her make these comments. Usually he laughs and tries to blow them off as jokes or finds a way to take her aside and talk to her. Then he's the one that usually appoligizes to me. At this point my husband and I are thinking about not going. This war has been going on for 5 yrs. how do I make it stop and keep peace in the family

Large populated areas probably would not be able to communicate, and travel would be next to impossiable.

My BF and I work blocks apart and commute together. Nearly every Friday he goes with co-ed co-workers to happy hour for hour or two. Has only invited me twice.

I get frustrated only occasionally (I don't feel compelled to go to every happy hour at my office- I prefer to be with my BF and don't need to add on extra time to hang out with co-workers I see all day), but have learned to respect the fact that he wants this...... (he has plenty on non-co-worker buddies).

Anyway, last Friday he called me at 4PM and said "meet you at 5PM ok". I said ok (i wanted to go earlier), but remembered about 5 minutes later I had to run an errand so tried to phone him back. He was not at work-- finally picked up his cell phone at 4:35 and was at a bar.

I asked why he did not mention he was going to Happy Hour and he flipped out and said it should not matter if he is at work or a bar as long as he meets me at specified time? I thought he was working and I think he should have mentioned?

I have been talking to this guy for about a month and a half now. I'm really feeling him, but I don't know if he completely feels the same. The problem is he has a bad habit of not keeping his word. There has been a couple times that he has told me he would call me back, or he was going to come over, and he ended up not doing it. He always calls me the next day with an excuse. We both are seniors in college, and work so our schedules are pretty busy. He seems interested me, and we have a wonderful time together...I have no other problems with him but it really frustrates me when he does this! am i being paranoid/uptight? should i just stop talking to him?? PLEASE GUYS give me an idea of what could be going on!

Okay, i have been friends with this guy for a long time now... I'm like really starting to fall for him! But, the thing is he has a gf... She goes to college so she isn't around much. We hang out just about everyday, and on the weekends. We have already done things with each other,and i think that's why i like him so much! He is very sweet to me, and he has a great personality! He has told me he loves me, and when i'm not with him he tells me how much he misses me! Him and his gf do nothing but fight, i don't even know why he is still with her! We had went somewhere over the weekend and spent the night with two other friends, and i just had the time of my life! Should i just leave him alone, or just keep tryin'? I mean who knows we may actually be together in the long run.... Please Help!....

Home many people here have been abandoned by a spouse that they have loved.... Did this really hurt and upset you and your life? What did you do about it and did the spouse that left you ever come back or want to be back with you? How long did it take you to realise that they were never coming back to you? Did you divorce over this? If so how long did it take you to do so?

Basically i was without a g/f for a while and i was kinda desperate.

I met this girl at soccer and she started hitting on me. Basically she was aggressive and I liked it. We started seeing each other and now shes my g/f. The problem is I'm not really attracted to her. She has a nice body but I am not attracted to her face. And before you think I'm shallow, I don't really like her personality very much either, I dont think we click. Her smile makes me feel uncomfortable and most worryingly I had trouuble performing in bed with her. What should I do?

Also she just got me a gift (the first) and I havent given her one yet back. Should I get her a gift even though there is a possiblity I might wanna break up with her soon.

I like to pay my own way but the guys I go out with refuse to let me pay for my drinks, entry cost to night clubs etc. I know most people will say I'm lucky but I'm very independent financially and would prefer to at least pay some of the time.

I am inviting some people I graduated with to my wedding. Do I need to put "and guest" on the envelope to let them know it's okay to bring someone?

I am putting my maid of honor's name on her invite so that she can save it as a keepsake, but I want her mom and little sister to feel welcome. Would it be okay to invite them via telephone before sending out the invitation?

Is not putting children's names on an invitation (inviting Suzanne and Richard Dean for example) good enough or do I need to put "adults only" on the invitation somewhere?

Thanks in advance for the help.

I've been seeing a guy who is now 19, and I'm 15. Currently were just like friends with benefits, no sex of course. He never pressures me into anything the I'm not comfortable doing, which is great. But we both understand eachother and can talk about anything in the world. We have alot of fun together and there is idealy nothing bad about it so far. It has been going on for about 3 months now. I don't know what to do, and I've been wondering if I should just end it to save myself from any hurt. I often think about the age difference, and both of us know that I am very very mature for my age. He never would have guessed my age if I had not told him. I'm begining to really like him, and I don't know if I should get into something like that. SO any advice or personal experiences would be of great help.

Thank you.

My boyfriend recently started a new job. As he's still training, he often has to work with someone else.

The other night, during a conversation, he admitted that one of the girls he works with likes him, and despite his mentioning me to her on a regular basis, she isn't really taking the hint to get lost. Apparantly, he was warned that she's a bit of a man eater.

I don't mind a little, light flirting in the workplace, but from what he told me, I got the impression she's quite forward. On one occasion, she asked him to excuse her because her bra strap came undone (how convienient). She then proceeded to take her top off in front of him. The same thing has happened to me before, and I know for a fact you don't have to remove your top entirly to fix the problem! He said he left the room and didn't see anything, and I believe him.

I trust my boyfriend, but i'm worried this girl won't take no for an answer and will keep trying to sink her claws into him.

What should I do?

I will be getting married at our local courthouse. It will just be me and my husband (and a witness).
I won't be getting married in a big formal wedding gown.
I was more thinking about a regular floor length dress.

Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions?
Maybe some good webistes to look at?


Thanks in advance for your answers!

My daughter, hubby, and I use outlook express to handle all our email accounts. When I opened it today, my hubbies account opened up as the default (no password). In it was tons of emails I forwarded to him (most of them unread) and two very, very, disturbing emails. I almost threw up by reading just titles alone. The subject was beyond your average adult content/porn. I thought he never really used this account. All folders like trash, sent, draft were empty except inbox. I know this because he always uses my account.
How could they get there? I don't think people use this as normal everyday spam, I think they could get arrested if they sent out spam like this. Could someone have stolen my hubby's email address? Is my husband leading a double life? Is there something about adult content email that requires some sort of proof of age before sending it? What are the laws, the rules for sending out emails inviting you to visit sites? Is it legal for me to secretly record him
