Family & Relationships - 18 May 2007

I would like to think that I am making my husband happy and meeting his needs and desires, but over the past few months things have changed.
I know he isnt cheating, but he doesnt seem that interested. Is he bored with me, or am I not doing what he really wants. I have tried to talk to him about this, but he says nothing is wrong he is just getting older.

My mother and father have moved 5 hours away, my sisters are busy with their own life, and my friends have their own thing to do. So how can I find a dress, get flowers, find a chapel, get the reception done, etc. all on my own. Any advice?

but not hurt her feelings? i might be better off just lying. i was thinking about saying hey, do u wanna hold off going out for right now, i kinda dont feel comfortable going out, so that way we just chill sometimes, and i hope that she forgets, my friend tells me thats prolly the best way so nobody gets offended, its an easy let down.

I gave it a month to let him settle in with out saying anyhting, but i haven't seen him once since he's been home. I wrote him a email telling him that i need to move on and i can't do this anymore.That I feel that he is heart isn't into it anymore, and we can remain friends. Did I do the right thing? Or did i act to fast???

My girlfriend (3 1/2 yrs) broke up with me because I was dishonest about very important facts. Since the break, we've taken necessary time and space to think for ourselves. I even moved out. Currently she feels like she is ready to sit down and talk about things. I want her back so badly, should I lay it on strong or take things extra slow? The situation was a very serious one. I hurt her badly. Now, after recognizing and eliminating the problems and viewing the bigger picture of our relationship, I have made much needed changes to my life. she knows this. what would you do?

My fiance doesnt want us to have a bachelor and bachelorette party. He says they are stupid and that he just isnt comfortable with the whole idea of what they entail.

Before marriage, my husband&I have agreed on going back to USA after we get married. I've been married for more than a yr now and living in Egypt. He had completely changed his mind about living in USA& wants to stay in Egypt cuz he's taking care of the family business although his elder brother didn't care about their business& migrated to USA. Now I wanna go back to USA cuz I'm having difficulty adapting to the lifestyle in Egypt, but mainly cuz I wanna go further with my education & pursue a masters degree. I also need to be next to my parents. He isn't sacrificing his career for anything&1 other reason he doesn't wanna go to USA is cuz he wanna be next to his parents. What abt my parents?my ambitions?my dreams? I considered many options but he is not accepting any. He doesn't accept me living there alone n him staying in Egypt,n he's not agreeing on living their with me. I love my husband&don't wanna a divorce, so plz do not advice me on getting a divorce.

I think siging a pre-nub means who are planning for a divorce? Why are you planning to make a divorce go well when you are getting married??? To me it does not make any sense. I honestly think if you trust someone you should be planning on living with them forever. You get married for better or worse right?? If you think you are going to have problems with you spouse in the future then why are you wasting you time getting married with the person. It is like saying i "love you BUT......" I think love is trust and hoping for the best, not preparing for the worst? What do you guys think??? Have anybody signed a pre-nup if so how did you feel?

I read some things my girlfriend wrote online and I'm not sure what to think at the moment. I think I really hurt her. I don't want to go into details very much but I told her Thursday night I would not be attending her prom because my two best friends were coming to visit me. I told her we could still go to my prom and I thought she'd understand...apparently i don't think she does.


"Dear You"
"Scott,
I will never understand how you had the nerve to hurt me like this on Thursday. The night before my prom! And how you are not even bothered by your selfish acts towards me. I hope after all of this is over it hurts real bad. I hope one day maybe not soon you realize you lost someone who loved you and truly cared deeply about you and would give anything for you."


-Tonight i am not attending my senior prom. Today I am sitting here more hurt then I've ever been by a guy in my entire life. Today I want to die. Today he lost me forever.....

ok my b/f has said that he cant see himself living after 20, that since he was a little kid he always thought he would die at 20 or not even make it to his 20th b-day. i told him we can see what happens 10 years from now or know whats going to happen a week from now but we still hope our life will be some way in the next year. he just kept saying he cant picture anything past 20. i think its becuase he is stuck in a hard place with a job and goals and everything but he still argues that he dosent think he is ment to live long...could he really have a sense of this? or are some people like this, they cant picture what they "want" there life to be like. this worries me because i need him and cant loose him...what are your thoughts

My husband has always been mentally abusive towards me. We have tried counseling and it didn't work. He is still this overbearing, macho, selfish person. I feel I am an attractive woman, so I have been told through the years, I have a degree and a great job. I seem to have it together yet nothing is good enough for him. He still constantly degrades me and try's to put me down in what ever I say or do. We argue at least 4 or 5 days out of the week. We have a 3 year old daughter together that is like his shadow and is closer to him then me. I finally found the courage to asked him for a divorce and to please work with me for our daughters sake. I said I would give him 50/50 and not ask for anything else. I explained to him how I wanted both of us to be happy. He is now avoiding my phone calls and will not return his daughter's phone calls, which is not like him. I feel that he is punishing our daughter to get to me. I can't understand why if he hates me so much, degrades me everyday, tells me I'm a terrible mother and thinks he could get better why doesn't he cooperate with the divorce, so we can both be happy apart?

He left me and 2 kids a year ago and he was the one having the affair and he is the one who filed for divorce, not me. We no longer can talk at all and I've tried and tried to just talk normal without bitterness and he can't do it. He is short, rude and for the 1st time in 17 yrs has called me names like loser & free loader and I don't understand why he has so much anger towards me. He is the one who brought on this nightmare we are going through. It hurts to hear him speak this way and it hurts to see what kind of person he has become. He is not the same man we lived with a year or so ago.

neglected her and had an affair with her own cousin, which produced two step sisters (one of whom is semi-retarded) who were raised with the family. The mother beat the girl for asking for a bit more food when she was hungry, then as the girl got older, she had to help raise her 10 bros and sis. The mother rarely called and never wrote or visited (but visited other siblings) when the girl grew up and moved out. Other than being generally messed up, how would this affect a child specifically?

Many people let me down. I feel like I got a curse because my dad let me down a lot and now all my guy friends let me down. So this saturday, I suppose 2 be meeting this guy name John but I don't know if he's really gonna come because I usually get let down. He tells me he's coming that day but I don't know. Should I go through with this and get hurt again or should I think positive and think everything gonna work out fine?

My fiance wants to elope, and want a formal (but small) wedding in a church.

He says he wants to avoid the whole drama of his family, and would feel weird inviting both his mom and dad to the wedding, and just get married on a beach in Hawaii or something, and then have a reception.

Backstory: His dad left his mom for another woman on x-mas eve when Nick was 5. They haven't spoken since. It's been 20+ years. Nick's brother does not speak to his father either.

He is afraid of bringing them into the same state (his father lives in Miami, and his mom lives in St. Louis) let alone the same building.

I can sympathize with his situation, but I can't empathize with it. I have a "nuclear family" and I know I would upset my family if I ran off and got married, but I know I would break my father's heart if he couldn't walk me down the aisle.

I will add that I also have strained relations with his mother, and that makes the situation more weird.

Any suggestions?
