this guy and i dated and i really care about him. He is a good Christian man just what i wanted in a friend and beyond. We thought we were moving too fast and so we slowed down. Then he told me that althought he loved me, he was not in love with me. To save face, i agreed and so we remained friends, hanging out just as before. But because it's harder for me i could not just hang out and just be friends. There is no sex involved because we both are Christian and we wait for marriage, but i am having a really hard time with the break up and i told him i thought he would be better with another girl from the same church, so i got them together. and i just can't seem to get him off my mind or out of my heart.
what should i do now? the other girl and i were just starting to become friends but i sense an attraction between them some time ago and everytime they are around each other.

I have a daughter whom I have not seen since birth 2.5 years ago. paternity is established but child support has not been so far. I have been sending $600 for the last 2 years even though there is no order. Now child support agency entered me in their system and soon they will start the support calcs. The mother has a son as well and they stay with their grandmother. Her mother claims everybody as dependents. I earn 130K+ before taxes 80K+ after taxes in California while she does not work (as far as I know) and her mother earns probably at the range of 30K in their state. Does the CSEA take the cost of living differences into account between states? Which state's jurisdiction applies here for child support, where the child resides or where I live? Do they impute her salary based on past work? Can I get the tax deduction for my daughter? I will pursue custody after this is settled.

I've been with my boyfriend for four + years now. We have been looking for an apartment to move in together first... He wants to wait another 2 or 3 years before we even get engaged.... which would mean about 4 years the earliest before the actual wedding... & I'm ready 2 settle down now. Esp. after 4 years..

It feels like we are on different pages. I love him very much, but it hurts when he takes his frustration out on me (mentally/emotionally)... He also neglects my needs and puts his needs first...

I grew up in a house with abuse, and I'm not sure (as dumb as this sounds) what a healthy relationship is supposed to be like. I am ready for marriage. And while I'm not happy in this relationship... I would love to marry him. Why i dont know sometimes.

But based on the above over view... Would i be "right" for ending things with him? Or is it wrong 4 me to desire some of his time, wrong 4 me 2 be upset about the delay in marrage? Thanks

I have been with my boyfriend for 8 years. We have a 6 year old daughter. Although I don't want to split up, he does. We still care about each other and love our daughter sooo much. We we're just very young when we got together and I guess we want different things. We have agreed to work together and always put her first and remain friends. I would just like advice on how to handle this in the best way possible. Also if anyone who has experienced this from a child's perspective and had an experience that is as good as can be under the circumstances, what did your parents do that really helped? Thanks for any advice.

I can't just watch tv since that isn't really that fun or active. I would like to play online games and stuff but my comp has a 7GB hard drive...I am serious. Basically now I watch tv, surf the internet, read, and write has anyone got an answer to this problem? Also with the gas prices as high as they are my parents don't like driving far to drop me off then pick me up. Thanks in advance.

My soon to be ex phoned me last night to inform me that he wants to serve me with divorce papers. Is this it or will I need to sign anything else to make this marrage end? I am in Alberta Canada if it matters any.

my parents love her and we love eachother. However her parents dont feel the same about me. She didnt grow up near any black ppl and when we first met she had no intention of dating me, I dont think she had seen many black people that weren't on TV. It was love at firt sight for me but she was shy around me at first, then she got to know me and we became good friends, then after about a year of close friendship she told me she had fallen in love w/ me and we started dating.

Now when we were friends, her parents were fine around me. But since we dated its changed, theyre reserved and dont like to communicate with me alot, I dont get invted to things that I used to. When my GF asked them about it, they said it was because im black. My GF doesnt care what they think, and her aunts and her other family members tell me not to worry about it and that they'll come around.

this is really bothering me because we are deeply in love, but i dont want to alienate her from her parents

My parents can afford to pay for the whole wedding, but because we are adults, and can also pay for it, we are footing most of the bill ourselves. But now that things are "getting down to it" they are acting like they can't even lend a hand at all. I know they can afford it, and I think that they are basically acting selfish. Is that right for them to do? My fiance's parents are paying for their part, we are paying for the other stuff...can't they at least pay for some of the Bride expences? Really would like some advice.

Is it wierd to prefer women who are unshaven? I wonder what percentage of women now-a-days keep their vaginas shaved? Unlike a lot of guys I know who like it completely shaved, I think it's way more sexier when the women is al-nauturale. No razor or special prep. And also - nothing overboard. Just a good 'ol woman the way God made her. That, to me, is sexier than anything else.

It's almost like it shows how very feminine she is - especially if she has decent-sized breasts to go along with it.

In a day & age when it sounds like most women shave, I have a different preference.

A woman just the way she is, the darker the hair - the sexier. I find it to be a major turn-on when having sex. Is this wierd?

What are all of them?
Did you use them in your wedding?
What did you use to stand for each one?
Do you know where that whole idea came from?
What all are they supposed to mean?

I need to find proof from a reliable source to answer the question “Do high school couples loose their scholarships?

The question is NOT:
“how unwise it is to marry while in high school or at such a young age.”

When me and my bf first got together,things were great,we saw each other everyday at work and afterwards. But now after 3 years, things have really cut down and he doesnt txt like he use to,and we dont have a laugh anymore,it's always me who initiates sex first,he doesnt make much effort. He also has this new job which i'm worried he might meet someone there,have we come to the end of the road or is he just bored of me?

I saw a recent report that some brides are setting up photo shoots to intentionally trash thier wedding dress after the honeymoon. Some were jumping in mud, going scuba diving, paint ball, etc while wearing the dress. The brides in the article said it was a huge stress reliever, plus they got some great pictures. I like this idea, but I have been married for some time and probably don't fit into my dress anymore. If you are a potential bride, would you consider such an option?

A lot of people on here ask about songs for walking down the aisle to. I always thought people walked down the aisle to the tradtional, "Here comes the bride" or variations of that. But, i'm starting to believe that people are walking down the aisle to more mainstream, popular songs.

Is this right? Or am I confused about what these people are asking? I'm Catholic, we are only allowed to walk down the aisle to the traditional wedding music.
