Family & Relationships - 18 June 2007

It's simple enough- in your own opinion, what do you qualify as making out, and how is it different from just 'kissing?'

I am engaged, to be married in four months. Almost a year ago, I expressed my feeling that some of his interactions with other females were not appropriate at the level our relationship was going (we were about to be engaged). We discussed it, and while he felt differently than I, both agreed that since I was uncomfortable with us (either him or I) spending time with the opposite sex without the other person there, we wouldn't. From that moment on, his friend (female) has been having a difficult time with our decision. She has asked on several occasions (to my fiance) what would make him happy? He tells her that he wants to remain friends, but at a distance and appropriateness. She continues pushing, claiming me being jealous and controlling-and saying it is unfair that she cannot see him unless I am there. She calls & emails him, in attempt to somehow change the decision we have made together. I am fed up. He wants to remain friends with her, with these boundaries..she's pushing. HELP

We planned on getting married soon and we both love each other so much. lately we haven't really talked about much besides the general 'what'd you do today' conversation. I really want this to work, but he thinks I treat him like a child because i ask him where he's going, and i call him. I don't think i treat him like a child, because when i go somewhere he does the same. I know he's busy and i try to be supportive. but i miss the time we used to spend together, and i know its i little selfish asking him to drop what he's doing just to hang out with me. I'm worried that he's going to get irritated with me and just end it all but i dont want that. i just really miss him, i miss our conversations and just being with each other. How do i get some time with him, without nagging? And how do i get him to believe that i'm not treating him like a child?

so every friend that is a girl that i have says im an awesome guy who knows how to treat a lady w/ respect yet does not wanna go out w/ me at all, they all just wanna be friends with me. so they choose to go out w/ guys that dont respect them or treat them badly (not all of them do this). i know that girls wanna go out w/ a bad boy and that im the type of guy that they would marry. but i would like to have some experience in my life before i get married.

dont get me wrong im still really outgoing and stuff like that it just doesnt come out when it involves girls and i dont let people walk all over me and use me.

so i was wondering why do some girls go out w/ a guy that doesnt respect her or a guy that treats her bad? why dont they pick the "nice guy"?

My girlfriend and I had just broken up (for reasons that i will exclude so that i can get some unbias advice...and no, i didnt cheat). We have only been going out for over three months now and this is our first break up. Regardless of the reasons that we broke up, I can tell that she still has feelings for me. I want her back as well, but she is unwilling to take me back at the moment. She says that we might get back together, but no garuntees. I know that every serious relationship comes with a few break ups in between, and i know that i can get back together with her. I just dont know how i should go about it. My question is how should i proceed? what signals should i be sending her? what hints should i look for coming from her? what have past ex's done for you to get you back? what works and what doesnt? How can i get her to fall back in love with me? I think that she wants me back, but she just needs a little encouragement. So i need some tips from all of you relationship experts

My husband only finds me sexy when i smoke a cig or wear panty hose. He gets excited from that but doesn't really do any thing to get me in the mood I told him we should try different things but he wont. he really isn't romantic and just expects me to get on top all the time and i told him how i feel and he just shrugs it off. I have worn see through things and such and no prevail. I am hopeless and lost and don't know what to do. How can i get him to be romantic with me? how do get him to do more with me instead of me being on top all of the time. I need to feel things not just get on top all the time. is it wrong for me to want to be romance once in a while? I am being crazy?He only touches my legs when i where the pantyhose and lately he barely does that. NOt to mention it is too hot to wear them now. Being nude dont do it for him. it not like i am over weight. I just don't know is it me? what do I do?

I am refering to relationships. If there is a problem, a man will ask a woman "What's wrong?" A common answer from the woman is "Nothing!" But obviously something is wrong. Ladies, any answers to this mystery for us men? ( I'd appreciate a direct answer!)

My fiancee and I have just started to look at invitations for our wedding. We don't want to spend too much money on them because of the fact that 1. they ar ejust paper and 2. most people will just toss them in the garbage after the fact. So the new trend in invitattions are seal and sends and they are affordable. However, the idea of this invite is the guests fill out the reply card which they then rip off and send it like a postcard. Does this seem to exposing?? I love the idea but don't want my guests getting upset at the fact that the reply is out in the open. Help!

I am in a relationship with someone I love. However, I tend to be clingy where I need to know what he is doing all the time and I don't give him space. I guess I am afraid of losing him. How do I make my relationship with him better so that he doen't feel like I am stifling him.

Why don"t they just ask the girl out instead of asking "Do you think she is interested?" By the the time they get up the nerve to ask .....she"ll be gone. What happened to men pursuing women? Did they grow feathers and start clucking?

who agrees with me, the men today are just so lame and such dogs. its impossible for them to stay faithful, no matter how beautiful, sweet, funny,supportive, smart, or successful their woman might be. we women do not deserve this treatment, and the only ones who are willing to treat a woman right are the ugly ones who nobody wants.

There's this girl...I cared for her more than anyone and the last thing I wanted to do was hurt her emotionally, but we dated and when she broke up with me she wanted to be friends...I wanted to heal. She pushed it, and I was vulnerable so I relented and for 6 months I've been through hell! If during that time she could have just respected me and told me, "Matthew I know your hurting so I'll leave you alone till you heal." I would've been over her by now...But alas no! I had to stop our friendship cause it was out of control. She has accused me of lying, not forgiving critizism, hate, over-reacting, turning people against her, suspicion, the list goes on and on. And all I've ever done was care for her and be sensitive to her needs. Now I'm the bad guy... Oh well I'm very mad, that someone who's known me for four and a half years would accuse me of things that I have never done or commited, I guess she really doesn't know me very well like I thought she did.

I have a friend who has a crush on this guy. So today at my lunch break, I was with her and he was passing by. I tried to break the ice for them, so I called him over and I got them into a conversation, so I could sneak away and leave them together. Later that day, I was talking to my friend about it and my boyfriend overheard then spazzed at me over the fact that I spoke to a random guy. I explained to him the situation, he was still upset and said I did the wrong thing. He also got angry that I left him for 5 minutes to speak to my friend (the girl one). He decided to leave school cause he was mad, then he went furious over the fact I didn't say "I love you" to him before he left. But can ya blame me? I was dissapointed with his behaviour. Then later today on MSN, he leaves me msgs blaming me saying he can't believe how much I hurt him, how I don't care bout how he feels. He turned the webcam on and was playing around with a gun to his head, I guess trying to frighten me? Help =(

I caught my husband speaking with a woman on the phone. He knew her several years ago and seemed to have feelings for her. (platonic I thought). He was to see her a year ago and I found out and got it stopped. Now it's to happen again. He says he wants to find out what his life might be like with her. We've been married 30 years. I admit I'm not as excited about him when he walks into the room like I used to be. I have gotten out of shape and can't do some things, but I am willing to try to change. I am beside myself with this breakfast. I want to call her and threaten her...or Maybe I'll "show up" at it and make a scene..or I'm considering just getting into the car that morning and refusing to get out. If he wants to go to breakfast with her, he's taking me too. I am hoping counseling will help us and I called someone today but haven't heard back when we can get it. In the meantime WHAT do I do about this meeting he has planned. Help me figure out what to do!

I hear people on here say all the time they had sex, but that it didn't "MEAN anything". Is that possible? Can two people have sex, and it not mean anything? I must be "old school", but to me, if two people have sex, it OUGHT to mean something! They SHOULD have feelings for the other person. Do you agree, or disagree? Have YOU ever had sex that meant nothing?
