Family & Relationships - 25 March 2007

The spouse moved in and out filed for divorce several times, and this went on for a couple of years. How can the marriage survive, or trust be rebuilt. I think a marriage can be bad and you know it , but when a third party is thrown into the mix, you want to win and will try to keep spouse at all costs, the threat or realty of rejection.

A friend of mine who is a brilliant psychiatrist told me (and I have read it before also) that passion ALWAYS DIES within approximately two years. No matter how strong it starts out. There are no exceptions, no matter how good-looking, hot, and intense the people involved may be. This is a proven fact; there have been many studies.

...What do you guys think of this??? My first thought is, Its not fair, the human race is doomed and cursed; how can a marriage survive under these circumstances?!?!? "Survive" is I guess the right word choice, huh? Certainly not "thrive." Am I wrong / unrealistic to want more?? Any thoughts??

My ex and I were together for a year and recently broke up. We've broken up twice before for the same reason, he says he needs time to get his life together and he's going through a lot. I tried to be understanding the other breakups but this time I had enough and told him off. I've removed all ties with him and we haven' t talked in three weeks. Anyways, I'm moving into a new apartment and as I was packing I came across a lot of his things. In my attempts to be nice, I texted him and asked him if he wanted any of his belongings. He immediately started telling me how much he missed me and thought about me everyday. I tried to keep the convo short and sweet, but he kept asking me questions to keep the convo going. My question is...does he really miss me and if so why did he wait for me to contact him before he told me?

I like this guy in my acting class, and I think he likes me too. I can never tell though. I mean I'll catch him looking at me but then he'll look away and I wonder what he's thinking. I can't stop thinking about him/his smile and I have no clue why! What do I do?

Heres my situation, I've been dating a girl for two years on and off, after that, we broke up and hardly talked. A few days later she got a new boyfriend who she says she feels as strong as she does with him as she did with me for those 2 years. I don't really feel like standing on the side lines watching her with another guy, I have a very short temper and might just go after her new boyfriend. To make sure I don't interfear or hurt someone (Or vise versa) I faked my own death. Am I just being selfish, or is it better then trying to break them up?

I was at this club the other day, and it was really crowded, and I accidentally bumped into this girl. She turned around and kneed me really hard in the balls, almost as a reflex. After that, I eventually got up, and I kept my eye on her.

When she was leaving, I followed her out, and I tapped her on the shoulder. When she turned around, I said "Hey lady, I bumped into you by accident. Why'd you have to knee me in the balls?"

I was expecting an apology, but instead, she just said "grow up, you loser." Then, without any hesitation, she swung her foot up and kicked me right in the balls again. I was lying on the street for I don't know how long, and I could hear her and her friends laughing at me as they walked off.

I don't think I deserved that. Do a lot of women go around just kneeing guys like that? What can I do to avoid that in the future, if anything? A friend told me it's just a hazard of being a guy at a club, but I hope that's not true.

Ok my ex and I who have been off and on for two years going on three, saw each other and decided we were going to be friends before he left to study outside of the country. Then while he was over there I admitted I was in love with him (long time right?, thats another long story). Even though he hasnt out right told me he loves me, hes been calling and writing me, and has been asking me to come visit him. He had asked me a couple of times before he left, but I wasnt sure then. Even though i want to, Im feeling a little apprehensive and scared. I know I need to seriously talk to him about his feelings, what hes thinking etc, but I just wanted opinions on what you would do in my situation.

Percentage and experiences of men staying at home with kids while their wives work

2007-03-25 15:12:30 · 2 answers · asked by Anonymous in Family

We have been friends or whole lives, more as a connection to family. our families had dinner and we had a great talkfor an hour and at first she seemed a little nervous around me(looking at the floor, twiddling, ect.)but, after a while we both calmed down. We didn't hang out for a while until just a few months ago when there was a party at my house and she came. We talked again for two hours, she seemed like she had a good time. I invited her to a party one of my buddies was having, I was one of two people she knew there. I saw the fact that she showed up and stayed until 2am as some sort of sign. I then asked her to this formal dance dinner event as friends,she seemed to be interested again. Then about a week later i tried to meet up with her on the following weekends but she was busy with legit excuses that i could verify. Then i asked her to the movie for friday, she had plans that were legit again, i asked for saturday, she said no again but also said she was not makin excuses. ???

Almost two years ago I became involved with a friend that I have had since we were lil' kids, we are in our twenties now. Stuff happened, not so good stuff, we didn't speak regularly for about a year and have been speakin' regularly for the last month and a half or so after his apologizing. Last weekend, when huggin' me good bye, he picked me up to hug me, and kissed the side of my face. In all of our years of being friends we never kissed each other good bye until we had been involved. I am guessin yes but do ya'll think he is still interested?

We got engaged a year ago, then things gt weird. I didn't see him for five months except when sleeping because he was working on remodeling a male friend's kitchen, then he bought a house two houses down as a real estate investment and I hardly ever spent quality time with him because he was renovating that house before renters moved in. Then, the renters moved in and are his friends - however, they are party animals and drink all the time. Now, he is there drinking from morning to night. He won't do anything with me and one night he had a boy's night out, I got mad because he hasn't spent time with me but can go party with the boys and I went out myself. He said they were gonna be somehwhere else because he didn't want me there, so I didn't know he was gonna end up being where I went. I said hi, he ignored me, so I danced with another guy. We then broke up and he said I can leave whenever I am ready. What I don't get, HE IS NEVER HERE and always at the party house next door?Why?
