With the average marriage ending in divorce in three years, most serial monogamist relationships outlast the traditional monogamists. Are we fooling ourselves with this catch phrase?

About resources to help vulnerable people - physically disabled, elderly, abused children and woman, or just single mothers - if they suffer injustices who can help them? This is a particular difficult thing to deal with when people do these things to people WITHIN the law. Just as example, read the following: When my mother was a widow and the mother of her first two children, a lawyer cheated her out of her house. An elderly friend had the same thing happen to him recently. With people I care for involved, I'm sure you know why I'm concerned about this issue. Sometimes money or knowledge is all that's needed to do these things to people without penalties.

Me and my husband have been happily married for 8 years.We had 2 kids, one 4 the other 6.Three month ago my younger son Jordon passed away from cancer and it just about killed me.I wasn't dealing at all and left town a month after the funeral to stay with an ex-boyfriend/good friend to get myself together,leaving my husband and 6 yr old on their own.I stayed away for 3 months because I just couldn't deal with being at home where everything reminded me of my son.I came home last week and although my son was overjoyed to see me,my husband has barely said a word to me since I left.He begged me to come home whenever I called but I was never ready until now and now it seems it's too late and he can't forgive me for leaving.I don't believe in getting professional help.What do I do?

my boyfriend (age 30) and I (age 25) just broke up. Long story short, he says he needs to be alone, to figure things out, that he thinks he still loves me but he's not sure and needs to figure it out. We've been together a year. I was also to blame, I smothered him, he's a very indpenedent person. He also says that he still wants to keep in contact with me, go to n.y. with me in april on this day trip we planned. So he emailed me Wednesday b/c he also had asked me to go to dinner with him Friday. We made plans for Friday and then today i got an email from him saying he couldn't do it after all b/c he has this county commissioners meeting (he's big into poltics) and that he's sorry. So we planned it for Sunday night. I know it's only two days more, but I'm just so upset. And I'm trying hard not to think we are getting back together, but it's hard b/c I am willing to work on my flaws to make it work. He's a great guy and I truely love him, any advice? Any at all?

Maybe I'm the only one that thinks so but I think porn is like cheating. Would you like it if your partner was touching themselves while watching a video of the person next door masturbating? its the same as a porno right its just that that person lives next door.

I have a friend who cleans houses for a living, privately, not through a company. One of her employers, she's been working for them for several years, hardly ever around when she's cleaning, she has a key. Anyway, about two years ago or so, the husband started being at home when she was cleaning, maybe once or twice a month, and about a year ago she caught him in bed with another woman. He begged her not to tell his wife, and paid her off. She was desperate for money at the time, so she took it, and promised not to tell. Now, recently she overheard a conversation between the guy and his fling, and turns out she is pregnant. Now, this guy's wife is also pregnant (8 months). What does she do now? She thinks the wife has a right to know what her husband is up to, but she took the money to keep quiet the last time. She could get in trouble for saying something when she promised not to, lose her job, or what, but her conscience is getting to her now. Help.
