Family & Relationships - 3 April 2007

The youngest so far has been 16. It happens EVERY time I go to the mall, to the market, to the library, even if my kid is with me. I usually wear no makeup and sweats. I try to attract as little attention as possible, but it never works. I know it is very flattering, but my kid gets mad, (he is 13 and adopted so no one believes he is mine-he's bi-racial) and when I am alone I try to tell them my age, but they never believe me and it makes it worse, even if I show them ID. I am tired of being bothered, guys asking if I am related to Jessica Simpson, trying to get autographs, so I have almost become a recluse in the house. I am a single mom who is dating, but my BF (who is 46) works a lot and is rarely around. What should I do?

you really want a girlfriend but it is hard to flirt her back if you don't have mood and hard to pretend any good ideas

My boyfriend and I have been together for a year. He is very Catholic and does not believe in divorce. I think this makes him more cautious about getting married. He also feels that if you tell someone that you love them, then you should get married shortly thereafter. That being said, I asked him if he had thought about getting married. He responded that he had. When I asked how in depth, he said that he had thought about what I would be like when I was in my older age, where we would live, if he would get a different job to be home more often (he travels with work), and also that he wanted to live in a place that had good schools for his future children.....

Okay! So, my question is, how do you know if he wants to marry you? I mean, with the things that he has been thinking about, do you think he is seriously contemplating it? I am unsure as he is very careful with his feelings.

Did others try to convince you that "he's not the type to cheat" or "You're just paranoid" only to find out that your gut instinct was correct?

I'm not trying to just be infalammatory or just be a jerk, so please don't take this that way. Is there really an emotional 'off switch' that women have? It seems that women can just turn off their emotions suddenly and act like nothing ever happened. I can't forget like that. I anything, I'm envious. Is this reality, or is there a composure gap between the genders?

I've been having an affair with a guy for 6 months. We work together and keep it very professional at work. We're both married and I'm worried it will become more than just sex for him. When we meet up we have a lot in common and enjoy our time together. For me it's just sex but do you think he'll develop feelings?

I mean I have seen people who have known each other for maybe 2 hours refer to each other as their friend. What time in a relationship can you consider someone to be your friend?

do guys act like girls in the sense that they tell their friends everything about their "crush/significant other"?

I was surprised because the guy i hooked up with (who happens to be my best friend) i guess told his best friends (like 3 guys) that he was involved with someone and hooked up with a girl but didn't tell them it was me - they're his friends soo they guessed me...

soo guys have "guy talk"?

Okay, yes I know it's oh so biblical, but is it just that way because it makes it easier on you? I mean, instead of having to listen to your wife or finding a compromise the husband can say "No. Last word."

I was raised in a Christian enviroment. The whole the husband is the head of the household still exists. My sister in law does everything my brother wants and would never disagree with him on anything because she is his wife and therefore must not even when what he is saying or doing is absolutely wrong. I can't wrap my mind around it except that it's just easier than compromising and working together because if that fails or if they don't bother the husband can just get the final word in as the head of the household. Am I right?

Clearly, I don't agree with this sort of mentality or the gender bias that it requires, but I'm looking for some sort of rational to this. Faith, stereotypes, prejudice of women ect. are not reason. What is your reasoning?

My neighbor is a single female living alone. She is always asking my husband to do house work for her. (MANLY things)! She hardly ever comes over to talk to him when I'm home, only when I am at work!! My husband ALWAYS tells me when she has been there!! Could she just be pretending to be my friend to get closer to him?? (She was fired from her last job for having an affair with her boss - who is married!!)

Heres the Deal-My grandpa is 81 and he lives with me and my sister and mom and dad in my house.So,My Grandpa's doctor said he has blood clots which were reversable with Lovinox shots,and a blood thinner pill.So we got that straightened out,but the side affects of Lovinox is that you get really weak.So Me and my mom,sister,and dad,usually go to church every sunday,but we just stopped because the flu went through my church,and so one of the deacons of the church came over,and we told the pastor to tell them NOT To come back over to our house,because my grandpa's immune system is not able to fight off viruses yet,so then they keep comming back over,and in my observations,thats called "House Touring",because they always want to come in,and we are NOT that type of family who is like "Oh Yeah,Please,Do Come in".Thats just Not us.So,What and how would be a polite way to tell them NOT TO COME Back?We also do plan to go back to chuch sometime this April or May.

My mother in law refuses to tell her family or her husband's family about me or my son because she said she's ashamed to tell them that her son married someone that she didn't approve of. She said she's afraid that her family will "scold" her for being a bad mother. My son is a year and a half old and none of his family on his father's side knows that he even exists. Her family is talking about who they can find for my husband to marry, and she still wont tell them because she doesn't want to "break their hearts".
I've tried explaining to her and my father in law that doing this is eventually going to hurt my son very badly and they need to be proud of him no matter what they think of me, but they don't care and still refuse.
What should I do? What would you do in a situation like this?
