Family & Relationships - 27 June 2007

If your partner / husband makes a joke about someone being pregnant with his child over and over again, especially when he had a few drinks. Him knowing that it will upset his girlfriend / wife, but still makes the joke. Is this a sign of him wanting to come clean and fess up or should it really be considered a joke.
Two weeks ago the joke was that the baby was born a few days ago. Should it be ignored or taken seriously. I brought it up a few times and the fact that I do not know what to make of this, but it always ends up in a huge argument.

...Whats best for me to do?
I really like my friend Amy, and I have no way to tell (im a guy, come on, even though im not like most guys) what she thinks. My instinct is to flirt, be careful to show the right qualities about me, etc... and when i think the time is right, kiss her. Im not sure exactly about any of it, though, and i dont want to screw up a good friendship.
Help?

Did you ever see the flirting going on with the older men and the younger waitresses and bar maids at local bars/clubs? The men have no idea that the young girls are flirting for tips- pretty funny and I wonder if it really works for the big tips ? Or are the geezers cheap?

He had no idea I worked for about 4 months I leaves the house at 7 am and thats when I wake up and get ready to go to work. I make sure I am home by six.He found out last weekend when I receieved my insurance package to the house. He hates for me to have money, so after him yelling and screaming at me he decided okay, 'work as long as I get all the money.' Now I need a $100 for roll on, a shirt, a book and don't know how ask him. I make $18 an hour. How do I ask him for a $100 from my paycheck?

Does it take being a ***** to finally get a man to settle down. Now, I'm not talking about the ***** whose mean, but a woman who is elusive, independent and knows what you wants. She won't settle for less and if he tries to take advantage of her, she knows how to put him in his place.

ok,here's the story.my girlfriend and i just broke up(3 days ago),and it all started when i brought up an issue.all i wanted to do was talk it out and fix it,and she felt the same.then,she gets defensive and starts saying that she's not sure if she wants a relationship right now and always had cold feet from the start(we'd been 2gether for 6 months).she led me to believe that we'd be together forever,and just 2 hours earlier she said she was happy. after being reminded of all that she told me,she says that she got "caught up in the moment" when saying those things.now,once or twice i can understand,but for 6 months?!it made me feel as if i was led on the entire time.honestly,i think it's pretty messed up on her part(to put it mildly).now,how am i supposed to believe she even cared at all?wouldn't you feel deceived?also,she would often say things to me that were hurtful,and later she would apologize,stating that when she's "fighting"(we never fought) she says things just to hurt.idea's?

I recently found out after 18 years my wife has cheated on me. It started off with an online relationship. She had a doctors appoint in a neiboring town, I stayed home with the kids, he showed up at the hotel. She said he tried to kiss her and she freaked out and screamed. She said he left, and that was the end of it, but she say she feels guilty she played on the computer and it lead up to this. She said she was only playing around because it made her feel wanted. Everyday, she has been trying really hard to fix our relationship, but I have so many mixed feelings right now. I have never cheated, and I don't know exactly what happened or what she said to lead up to this. In short, I guess I have lost my trust. Has anyone else been through this? I love her dearly, but everytime she turns on the computer, I get this bad feeling now. I have been trying very hard to give her the attention she felt she lacked, but I always have that question, why? what actually happened? Advice?

He recently broke up with his long time girlfriend. I could see no obvious reason, he just said she was annoying him and there were things about her he doesn't like. He said he wished she was more like me. Then a couple days later he said he was pretty sure he'd follow me a long way. After I said we needed to go somewhere. Then he said if we were together all my dreams would come true. In addition he looks dreamily into my eyes when I drop him off at night. I can tell he wants to kiss me. I know he likes me, but do you think he is in love with me based on these actions?

as who we'd like to be?

For example, I'm seeing a great guy who's much more reserved than I am. He's an obserserver, passive, and a peacemaker. I'm loud, can be argumentive and a talker. However, we both the same things like enjoy art & culture, dancing, wine, etc. I mentioned that sometimes I felt boisterous next to him because I'm a talker and he isn't. He said it's ok, he's comfortable w/that and that's what makes us good for each other. He also said that if opposites attract , there still needs to be some commonality to hold the relationship and that's what we have.... Do you agree?

I personally dont care if he reads Maxim, Stuff, or any of those guys magazines but I think that when they have naked girls its too much. He says its not a big deal to him but he still asks to read them. I personally dont like them but is this wrong to feel like this or do I really have low self esteem? Has anybody gotten over things like this. Weve been married for 8 months now, I dont know if that helps.

To celebrate growing older, Regina Brett, The Plain Dealer from Cleveland , Ohio once wrote the 45 lessons life taught her. It is the most-requested column she ever wrote. Her odometer rolled over to 50 this week, so here's her update.....

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.

16. Life is too short for long pity parties. Get busy living, or get busy dying.

17. You can get through anything if you stay put in today.

18. A writer writes. If you want to be a writer, write.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take NO for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, and wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, and then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?"

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost everything. Give time more time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.

35. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood. Make it memorable.

38. Read the Psalms. They cover every human emotion.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

41. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

42. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

43. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

44. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

45. The best is yet to come.

46. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

47. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

48. If you don't ask, you don't get.

49. Yield.

50. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.
