I broke up with my ex-bf of a year right before Christmas break and it was awful. He got mad at me the night that he left to go back home and we didn't talk at all for about two weeks. I was miserable. He has a terrible temper and loves power more than I can even explain. He called me late one Friday night at 2am again saying he was sorry. I told him I just couldn't be with him anymore and that I was better off without him but I miss him so much. I know this is the right thing to do. I am moving on. I actually asked him for a ride to the airport the other day. But I cancelled just a couple days ago because seeing him and talking to him just makes me feel like I'm stuck in a relationship that is going nowhere. He seemed really eager to drive me though. He kept saying "I can drive you" then I told him we shouldn't talk anymore or see each other anymore. He seemed hurt, but how can I move on when I see him and talk to him and he flirts. I get so confused? Should I go back?

I met this guy online and I really like him, we have a lot in common and he seems to like me too. We had been chatting for a week, and have recently moved on to phone conversations. The problem is I am shy, and today when he called I didnot have much to say. I'm afraid he'll take that as me not being interested, which is not true... what should I do?

Im having problems with my family. Ever since my father passed away, my mum has changed alot. She is always very bitter and angry. I've tried so many times to talk to her and she just yells at me or doesnt want to talk. I understand she is upset, because i also miss him too. I dont know how to deal with this anymore, i've tried over and over to try and sort things out but she just pushes me away. I really dont know who to talk to about this but i need some advice, i can't deal with stress anymore. Please help : (

If a guy sees a girl that he doesn't know but thinks is attractive, is it ok to just walk up to her and start a conversation. Do girls mind if guys they don't know approach them and talk to them. What should he say to her to start a conversation

do men like women who know how to cook clean and help around the house ? or does it matter if the woman can cook? sure she looks great but would a man rather have someone who knows how to cook?

I'm decent looking and I speak with intelligence, calm and confidence, so I can get girls to go out with me. But once I'm actually out on a date, conversation is a problem. If I'm trying to learn about the girl and listen to her, they say I'm too quiet or that I ask too many questions. If I take the lead and steer the conversation, they say I'm too long-winded and serious because I like to talk about things that actually matter. The girls who seem to actually like talking to me are few and far between. At 21, I feel kind of stupid still asking this question, but how do I make date conversation easier?

he says he heard me and later when we are talking he will ask me why is this happening or when did you say that. He is usually worrying about things from work how can I make him relax so he can take his mind off work? I have tried a massage and even trying different things but still he is worried about the things he has to get done that he drowns out the family and he says he can't take his mind off work, his boss is a moody kind of guy says one thing but then the next day he changes his mind on what he wanted done. So what can I do ?thank you for your answers.

Which would you do ? We are not religious but still spiritual in a sense. We are having a non-traditional wedding. ( Containing a handfastening/knot ceremony.) We want this to be a day to remember not just for us but everyone there. Would adding the sand ceremony be too much in an already offbeat ceremony?

Yesterday I went shopping with my husband and we ran into an ex of mine I hadn't seen in 2 years.I was so suprised and excited to see him since he had moved to another city a year before that I forgot to introduce my husband and when we went out to lunch I basically ingored my husband in favour of catching up with the ex.I know it was wrong but I was just so excited about seeing my ex again because we ended up being really good friends after the break-up.I apologized to my husband and explained why I reacted that way but he just won't get over it.What is his problem?

When it's time to get serious and marry, what's the maximum number of sex partners you feel is OK for your honey to have experienced before you?

If you feel free to share such information, it would be interesting to know if you are a man or a woman and how old you are.

one of my best friends is becoming depressed (now he's getting a cold too!) and stressed out because his girlfriend refuses to see him (she says she needs space to deal with her issues). i am becoming increasingly worried for the poor guy. i don't know what advice to give him anymore. they've dated for over 2 yrs and she complains to me (she's also one of my roommates) that he never wants to see her because he's busy with school (he's not cheating) and extra-curricular stuff. she has moodswings and he tells me that she brings him down. he also told me that she's too clingy and sometimes he has to ask her to leave. they used to be so good together! she told me that she's not sure whether they love eachother. from what he tells me, she's pressuring him to marry her. my guy-friend also tells me how he thinks other girls (our mutual friends) are cute. should they continue this relationship? i suggested couples' counseling, but... i'm out of advice for them and confused too.
ADVICE please?

I have been dating my boyfriend for almost 2 years now and most of it has been long distance, as it is right now. Last night he told me that he wasnt coming to visit me like he had planned on doing, so now we arent going to see eachother for two weeks. I am always visiting him, so this really upset me. I told him how much this hurt my feelings and after asking him to still come, he got mad, and hung up on me. he then shut his phone off and hasnt called me, or turned his phone back on yet. I really don't know what to do, nothing like this has ever happened in our relationship, and he has never done anything like this. Just some input would be nice. thanks!

my old friends,family, and everyone else. I don't want to fall back into the old me. I am getting really nervous and anxious. Is that normal? I feel like I have to live up to a standard or they are expecting something of me. Really don't know what to say or how to act. I know I should just be myself. But myself is easily persuaded and conviced to do things that I know are not good. Just don't know what I should expect when seeing everyone?

It's like 7 out of 10 marriages fail, and the other 3 are miserable ones. I believe people will just live together and not marry in the near future, anyone agree ?

I too was sold a bag of goods by the church and a lot of others..... I fought way less with my wife when we were just dating, What the hell is the need to be married if you love someone?? To me it's a scam, and women want it more than men, don't deny this. 99% of guys would like to live with their chicks rather than marry.
