What should I do? I have been best friends with this girl for 11 years. She recently got devorced and I am so proud of her for finally standing up for herself and devorcing him but she has change so much!!! She has three daughters and she goes out all the time. She has this roommate who has led her to be this person I know she never met to become. She was this good mother and friend, and I understand that she wants to enjoy this new life but she is taking it to far. She comlplains to me all the time about her roommate but yet she continues to do the same thing he is doing. Party, Party, Party....by the ways, her roommate is a gay guy. I am tired of hearing about him and his problems!!! She doesn't take any of the advise I give her and gets a little attitude with me if I say anything about him. What should I do?

My wife recently left me for another man, who is a total loser. She was my first love and mother of our three kids. I hate life without her. I will do anything to have her in my life again. I have dated a lot since and no woman will ever measure up to her. I need her back and will do anything to have her back. What can I do?

i tend to hold grudges even after i have resolved an issue...i dont wanna punish someone i love over and over again for something that im supposed to have forgiven them for and gotten over. what do u do when u feel the need to bring up a past hurt when a new problem comes along? is it wrong to mention it if the new problem inter-relates to the old one or should i just treat the situation like there were no previous incidents..u know, like having a clean slate...?? i dont want to push someone i love away by bringing up the past...but sometimes i just cant help but think its relavent. if i keep bringing it up, i dont think i have really gotten over it so if thats the case, what do i do to help myself get over it without dragging the other person into it (assuming that whatever mistakes were made were amended and the person is truly regrettful for their actions, i wouldnt want to "open the wound" again just because im having trouble resolving my issues with myself)? thoughts anyone?.....

I went to check out the couples bridal registry at a local store and they did not have things like sheets, coffee pots and the colors of their rooms. They had expensive gifts such as digital camera's and all kinds of electronics. Computer games and espensive carpentry tools.
I felt almost ridiculous looking at gift registry for them . Is this normal way to register or is this couple trying to make a haul? They already have a child and have been together for many years. I didnt expect to see all that high end stuff on the registry. I was expecting something more simple.
Am I old fashioned or are they getting a little greedy?

Last week, she told me something disturbingly offensive & disrespectful over the phone, & instead of arguing back with her, I hung up in her face. I'm afraid to call her & apologize, even though I guess we should both be sorry. But I do want to be the bigger person & apologize. I'm afraid she might still be holding a grudge.

After some hesitation, and deal making (lowering the amount of people from 60 to 20), I've decided to throw a baccalaureate party and a bridal shower for my brothers evil fiance. At the bridal shower we are going to play "grandma friendly" games, and at the baccalaureate party we are going to play some of the not-so-grandma-friendly games. I googled it already, but I haven't had any luck. Can anyone tell me where I can get some FREE printable games for a bridal shower and a baccalaureate party?

Ok, I met this cute guy last summer. He's like hanging around me. He smiles and greets me everytime we bumped into each other until I developed a crush on him.

Things changed after that. He started to ignore me. The thing which confuses me the most is whenever I ignore him when he's around he tries to communicate with me.. but If I started to pay him attention or whenever I started to converse with him, he treats me coldly and ignores me at some point.

I even tried adding him up at my YM but he ignored my request. What should I do? Should I forget about him already and move on with my life? By the way, he's younger than me.

My uncle has been in a relationship for 15 years. They have three children together. His partner often hits him, she has pushed him out of a window on a two storey house, almost castrated him, pushed him down stairs, hit him over the head with dog cans, hockey sticks etc. If he tries to defend himself she calls the police and they believe that he's the violent one. I lived with them and saw all of this. He won't leave her even though at times he says he wants to.

Lately when she gets angry, if I'm there she will also attack me. Just the other night she picked up a shovel and went to hit me over the head with it. He grabbed it off her and stood between us so that she couldn't do as much to me. I ended up with concussion though from the amount of times she hit me in the head.

I don't want to make things worse for him but I don't think either myself nor him should put up with this. He's facing stuff that he really needs me to be there for but she's making it impossible.

We know we have a Father in Heaven, we know we have a Mother in Heaven, but we never think, hear about or even consider, doctrinally, our GrandFather in Heaven or our GrandMother in Heaven.
Now I know the scripture says, "Wherefore a man shall leave father and mother and cleave unto his wife", but wouldn't you think it going just a bit far that we never have even considered the thought of our GrandParents in Heaven??

Grandparents are special.
You generally get 'the soft treatment' from them.
It is always such a pleasure, warmth and joy to think back on them and to be amongst family.
We train thoroughly in it here; so why does it seem to be given zero consideration in the Heavens-to-earth arena that we are currently in???

My mom and dad were married 25 years when he suddenly walked out on her for another woman. It is going on three years since their divorce and my dad is still with this other woman. My younger brother, who is 25 and married, is the only one of us kids to say in touch with our dad. Memorial Day weekend my brother, his wife, and daughter went to hang out with our dad and this other woman. My mom can not understand how he could feel comfortable enough to just go spend a long weekend with this woman who destroyed his father and mother's 25 year marriage. What kind of woman would date a married man then stay with him while he cheated on and eventually left his wife of 25 years? My mom is pretty upset with my brother. She doesn't mind that he has a relationship with his father but hates that he can just spend time with this woman like nothing happened. What do you think?

ok so we have decided that we cant live together...too many arguements normally against me against her kids when they are too lazy to clean up after themselves..do you think i am harsh if one is 17 and the other is 20? however..we think it could be that if we live in different places it will be ok......apart from the fact, that we are not telling anyone we are still working in out....do you think she is hiding it for her own good?
and all of this makes no sense...head still spinning

So I get homesick really badly and easily. I am going to a Christian Camp and I have two options:
1) Go up with one of my Bestest Friends and fish at their cabin.
2) Go up Sunday (the day we need to b there) with two other friends, we are all together S-F neway.

What are your opinions on what I should do!?

My husband and I have been together for 6 years. When we first got together it was as if I had found a missing part of life...people said we were the "perfect couple". A year and a half ago I had some serious health issues and was placed on medication that helped to cause a " mental breakdown". My health has improved quite a bit but I am still not released to return to work. I am having real difficulty with my husband’s lack of compassion, controlling behaviors and always being at the bottom of the priorities. He does not hit me, curse at me or cheat on me. He just will not listen to me, makes me beg for any money and treats strangers with far more courtesy. I have never felt resentment like this before...it is almost solid. I DO love my husband but right now I do not like him at all and don't want to be near him. I would like opinions from anyone who has been there
