Family & Relationships - 30 May 2007

They have been divorced for at least 6 yrs now and his family still invites his ex wife to all their family dinners, weddings, funerals, and to be honest, it makes me feel like an outsider. I also am divorced and my family never would invite my ex husband to the family gatherings. He comes to the kids graduations and functions, but not to my families weddings etc...
She (the ex wife) shows up at everything. She has no qualms about bringing her husband and buying extravagant gifts for the grandkids which arent hers. She comes to the parties and makes herself right at home and they are all thrilled to have her come right along. She cheated and it makes me want to vomit. Maybe its just me, but I feel like maybe these step kids of hers needs to cut the rope.
I went to a dinner and about crapped when I looked at the table next to me and there she sat with her husband right next to her ex mother in law. Is it me? Is this normal or am I jealous and just dont realize it?

I have been best friends with a guy for 10 years now. We have never dated, but he knows I have feelings for him. We talk on the phone for hours, hang out all the time and if anyone gives me any problems he makes sure they don't ever again. We want to move in together. Are we both just blind and don't want to face the facts that there is more there than we see on both are parts or is this just one of those really good friendships

Is there anything wrong with an older man dating a younger woman? Be honest. A lot of famous and not so famous couples had a huge age difference. For example, Humprey Bogart (47) married Lauren Bacall (19).

Is it normal to think about someone from the moment you wake up till the moment you go to bed? Especially when you reallly want that person, and in a way, you know you can't have them because, well, you're bi and they might not be? Whenever they're near me, I get insanely turned on ..it's mad. I'm 18, if that helps.

Hi all,
i m 24 ,he is 26.He is a north indian.I am a south indian.
We are working in the same MNC.We are financially stable and are realy confident about our relationship...
His parents have no problem with the marriage.
But my parents are dead against this.
Reasons:
1.different caste,different eating habits(i expl them it is not so..but they dont agree).
2.Their apprehension tht he will leave me and go later on in life.
3.i have a younger sister.if i do this marriage,it will affect in her marriage as she will not get good alliance.
4.if i do this marriage ,it will be a encouragement for my subling,cousins and future generations in our family ...
5.Also my parents are saying tht our relatives will cut all relations with them if i get married to him.
6.they have concern that his family may be good now,but after marriage they may change.
Also,
He met my dad and tried to convince him ,but he still sticks to these points and does not agree.
Kindly advise me how to convince

Like for example, I may post a question about a family member doing me wrong, & some of them make responses like, "She's your mother. She loves you. I'm pretty sure she didn't mean you any harm." Do you call it love when your mom tries to discourage you from going back to college because of her inferiority & jealousy? Also, she tried to kill me & my twin sister & she chooses favoritism for the brothers over the sisters. She lets my brothers drive her car but not me & my sisters.

Ok well me and my friend had a math class in college together last semester and like we became friends with our teacher which is also a female (all of us our females)... anyway, the last day we all went out to eat and she told us to keep in touch and that she wanted go see us again and eat again soon. Well I have been the only one talking to her through email since the class is over. Our former teacher is married but doesn't have kids but pregnant with her first. We try to make plans with her and she agreed to go eat again but said we will have to go do the other plan on a later dat b/c she is on the day we wanted to go. Well.. my friend says we should stop trying to hang with her and talk to her b/c she is too hard of a person to make plans with.. but then again she dont even talk to her ever. Also.. she doesnt seem to understand that she is married and has other things she has to do. I dont agree with her and plan to continue the friendship. Do you think I am doing the right thing?

I have been talking to a girl online for about a month now. I really do love her. However, today I asked my mom if it was ok to talk to someone and to call her on my cellphone. She was perfectly ok with it. Well, my dad tried to look on my macbook today, and i freaked and shut up. I then accidently kneed him in the lip. My mom told him about this girl because he wanted to know why i didnt want him to see the computer. Now he wants to talk about "internet chatting" and im really scared that he will take my computer away and i wont be able to talk to her anymore. Im 18 and I have never done anything wrong before. This has not affected my grades, and Im graduating 4th in my class. any help?

...after you had had a huge fight (with your longtime boyfriend/girlfriend)?

what if this friend stayed "friendly" with you and even helped you in your time of need after the fact? (you even confided in this person about your relationship issues...both before and after their deed...oblivious of what the person had done behind your back)

suppose this person was also your child's Godparent (whom they love dearly)

would this person still be your friend if you found out about their previous flirtations and one night affair about a YEAR later and you and the other person (your bf/gf) were breaking up?

please be honest...

They go through my room, leaving stuff in it and taking what they want. They crash the programs i install on the computer. two months ago, i was left a little ceramic pot and flowers. after that i was left their bank statements from the past 7 years. after that someone took my kodak digital camera. they are always up to something. i don't feel it's fair how they do things that are nasty to me instead of expressing to me their needs verbally. they are always doing something to piss me off. I'm 25 and live at home wich has been hell. Apparently I ask too much of my family; however, i was gone between 19 and 24 so i have not been here long. secondly only seeds planted in rocks have to come back home at the age of 24 and yes im justifying myself. I think about leaving all the time, but when it's good it's great and when it's bad it's hell. i always come back with the fact that they're old and unhealthy &heart attacks &strokes are just around the corner. one day they'll be sorry

He plans to pay child support until his son graduates college. He plans on enrolling this fall. The question I have been wondering about is should he pay it to the son or to his ex wife? Do you think he should pay support until his son graduates college? How long should he give him to graduate?

So I really like this boy, he's the first one who I can see a future with and I think I like him more than anyone I've ever met. He was into me and said he really liked talking to me but then I got a little too into it and called him a lot and kind of scared him off, but then I stopped, however since then he hasn't been as into as before. He got out of a really serious relationship about 3 months ago and it's obvious he's not over it yet. He says he wants to take things slow, but I'm scared that something might never happen because I haven't seen him in two weeks and he hasn't made any inscentive to hang out with me... He goes to school out of state so also I'm afraid that the summer's the only chance I have with him, and it's just really hard and confusing. I need advice on what I should do... I really like him, and for the past 3 weeks everytime I'm not doing something thought consuming I think about him and I always have dreams about him... I'm just really confused.
