Actually, this happened to my friends.

You see they had a daughter who was 19. Her dad was cheating on their mother with several women. This caused problems in the house, like extreme fighting and beating. This girl's brother used to beat her also, because he saw father beat mother. The girl has no place to live because she does not have family in this area. Is she doing fine? Please help. What should I tell my friends, because it is their daughter?

I had a 6 month fling with a lady some 3 years ago.

It ended messy and on bad terms.
She has since married a guy who's very wealthy.
Since our split she has contacted me 3 times asking this and that.
I have not made contact with her, it's been all her doing and i'm sure her husband is not aware of this.
It's only 3 times in 3 years.

Why is she contacting me?

My family has been driving me crazy,especially since I got my car. Our apartment is too crowded. It's my mom,me,my 2 sisters and each of their two kids in a 2 bdrm apt. They make noise and constantly come in the room when I'm trying to sleep.I just got a car. I don't mind driving them places sometimes, but they don't know how to give it a rest.I work weekday nights and am off the weekends. But I get no rest because I'm always taking them somewhere during the day, they call me on lunchbreak at work to take them somewhere, when I get off work at midnight they still want me to take them somewhere. They want me to take them places on the weekend when I'm off work, and watch their kids on the weekends too. I have 2 pick up and drop my mom off everyday, even when she makes PLENTY of $ to get her car fixed or get a new one.I want to move out but it's going to take a while. Dont get me wrong I love all of them to DEATH, but it's gotten to where I'm about to live in my car so I can save 4 apt

I've just had another death in my family last week. That makes three in the past six months, including my mother. I think I'm a strong person but I can only deal with so much. I'm starting to become numb from it all and I hate feeling that way. Can anyone help me with this?

I will be with my children less during this time of transition for us. I would like them to have something from me that will remind them of our connection to each other and that although we are apart they are constantly in my thoughts and I am there for them. The girl 13, has a great voice, likes to draw and sing and dance, hair/make-up as a teen does! The boy 9, enjoys skate boarding and other physical activities and likes to build things and race go carts.

My father had a really bad childhood. My grandparents were very abusive towards him, physically and emotionally. His childhood was so bad that even today, his mother has such a huge control over his life. Over the past 14 years, I have gone thru hell living with my dad. Its almost like he has created me into this robot. I say robot bc they have no brain or heart. He always wanted things his way, I could say a thing, think for myself, do for myself. Nothing. I have no friends/boyfriend, and never allowed to go out or do anything. I've always felt that my father never loved me, he was never home anyways. He never took us anywhere.All he ever did was work and pay bills, and he always whined about doing that also. He once threatend to disown me and kick me out 4ever @ 16. He's scared me so much in life that ive lost self esteem. Should I move out and not talk to him again. Am i doing something wrong? Am i a bad kid?

We are very happy together and we connect well. We are also Aries (me) and Libra. I have been seeing him since V-Day. We were friends months before but because my ex at the time was an ***, I jokingly asked this guy to be my surrogate boyfriend for the night of v-day. Nothing happened but he cooked me dinner, drew a bath, rubbed my feet etc. He always takes good care of me. He never hit on me. Well months have past and now we are closer than ever. He tells me he loves me. I have two problems 1) His age. I could careless but I know my friends and family will not approve. 2) I really want a family with kids. Because of his age (his reasoning), he's on the fence about it. He also said that he would keep an open mind about it. We have so much fun together, I am happy with him and I do love him. My two reasons are weighing on my happiness. We don't really have titles, but both have acknowledge it's a relationship. He wants it to move forward. What do I do?

His g/f is a snob! She treats my family with zero respect, and says and does as she pleases. How do I handle this without creating a strain between my cousin and I?

My ex boyfriend got a call from his LOSER friend yesterday, and told him that I had cheated on him in the months leading up to our breakup. I was with this guy for 5 years, and NEVER ONCE cheated. I can't understand how he can believe this guy. The one who told him this has horrible drama right now in his life with his maybe soon to be ex wife. I say maybe cause they have sex all the time...and even though he threatens her...she still keeps in contact with him. UGH. He is known to blow things out of proportion...like major, major anger problems.
My ex said last night that he doesn't want to talk to them again (the friend or his crazy wife)...and he doesn't trust me anymore. He told me not to try and convince him otherwise, and to have a good life.
I don't know what to do! He was my best friend...and even though we had broken up we were trying the friend thing...and it seemed to be working. I have another boyfriend, and he (my ex) is dating someone too. We aren't trying to get back together...but...damn...I can't let him believe that I cheated. He sounded so hurt when I talked to him.
He was such a big part of my life for so long, I can't completely write him off. (it has been 5 months since the breakup)
He is a sweet person, and I am so, so angry at this stupid friend.
We had broken up for things that we both couldn't handle anymore....but always knew we would be friends.
Any advice on what I can say or do? This is nonsense!

Every person I've talked to that has been married for 20+ years has cheated! My friends who haven't been married long are very faithful to one another but does it wear off? I am in my 20s and it scares me to think that my future husband might cheat on me. I don't believe in divorce so I know I'll make the right decision before I marry but that what if is freaking me out!

Should you ask if they don't want to talk to you anymore, or should you just be patient, not say anything else, and let them talk when they're ready or when they want to talk to you? I'm just wondering.

My parents are divorced and my mom has been dating this guy for 2 years now. But only recently did it start to get really serious. She is spending every waking moment with him and is always asking him to come over and is always asking me to go over to his house for a barbecue and sleep over. I dont feel comfortable with this because I feel like she's trying to force him in. I feel like she's trying to replace my dad and turn her boyfriend into a father figure for me. He's even coming on the family vacation! i tell her all the time i dont want to sleep over and i always make plans to hang out with friends instead. But now shes getting aggravated with me because she thinks that i'm acting stupid by not wanting to go over like every day (like she does) and sleep over. It's not him whos the problem. he's a nice guy, its just the thing is, i already have a dad and i love him very much. What should i do? Because my mom is really getting mad at me.

I have been friends with a guy named Alexander since December, he has already graduated from college, is very smart, attractive, the whole works. And a fun friend to hang out with. It was never the right time for me to make a move on him for the past six months until a couple weeks ago, and we started really hanging out, and we slept together a few times. I was already looking for a job in Atlanta, and then when I get home one day, he tells me that he moved to Atlanta today, because he got a call for a job, and he was sorry that he didn't tell me bye, etc... It crushed me. I have put in a request with my job to be transferred to Atlanta, which it's going well. The thing is, I want to be with him when I go up there, but I don't know how to let him know that. HELP!!!

What does that mean? I mean, first of all we do not live together, so how does this apply? Second, when we did live together and he still said this, how is his working for us have to do with him having to pay for his rent, even if we were not together he would still have to pay for rent ( of course I put in half of ALL bills ). So what does it mean when a guy says I work for us? Is it just something they hear growing up or just a common thing for a guy to say when argueing ?
