Who typically sits next to the bride at the reception? I'm figuring that it is the maid of honor, but I'm checking.

We are having a small (30 people) wedding, and I kind of wanted my mom to sit next to me during the reception. I feel rude telling my maid of honor this, because I think she is suppose to, and she's pretty much a "by-the-books" person.

Any suggestions? Thanks

OK..My boyfriend and I have been having a very rough time in our relationship which is 1 year and 4 months old. He hasn't cheated on me per se, but he seems to hide certain things from me. He's been talking to a couple of girls over the past 8 months or so. 4 to be exact. TALKING not meeting up or sleeping around with. He tells me he would never hurt me in that way. Just today, we had a terrible fight. He's been chatting to his ex about a prob of hers! He didn't want to tell me because he thought it wasn't important. This isn't the first time. The last time he was cybering with a married lady. But again, he hasn't met any of them. Today, I totally lost my cool. I did something that I've never done before to anyone. I slapped him. I'm very very tired and I'm trying my level best. There have been many faults on my part as well. Now he says he needs time. Please tell me:Will we work out?Our parents know about us and they would like us to get married.I love him a lot and I know he loves me

My wife is a perfectionist so I know every week I will get a load of criticism. I do everything to my very best ability, do all men get critisism when they clean ?

My ex-husband thinks that it would be in all of our (he, our 15 year old daughter, and I) to get back together.

I am not so sure of this because of the following reasons:

He will probably control who/ when I speak to (eg. my parents or other relatives).

He will control how I spend money.

He will have the final say in our daughter's life including her personal hygiene and clothes shopping.

He will want to know where my money is and make me invest it how he wants.

He does not want to legally marry me immediately.

We are legally divorced, but he still thinks for all of our sakes , we should get back together.

I live in another state, so it would mean moving everything, etc.

I would like to have my daughter come stay with me. He has sole physical and legal custody. He thinks she will not be okay with either he or me alone.

I am so confused because he says I only think of myself.

It was catered primarily just for men. So for example you would have hot girls in skimpy outfits give you the manicure. I mean we all like hot girls right? But what about hot girls mixed with something primarily feminine like a manicure????

If you would not mind, how much would you be willing to pay for a hot babe feeling up your hand or feet and making them look sharp? ;-)

Be honest. Have you ever cheated? Ever been tempted to?

that the man whom you have held up high turned out to be a man without guts? i mean.. you expected him to be stronger than you are.. an accomplished, smart, educated & blah blah... (or so i was told) and he didn't live up to it. It is a piss off!!

Good riddence. What about you?

just asking.

OK so I just want your opinion on this. What physical features besides @$$es and 8008s do you like in a girl? Do you like big muscles in arms, or legs? Or not too muscular? Or not muscualar at all? So, my main question is, do you like muscualar girls? And do you like tomboys who wear boy clothes? Do you mind if they are tomboyish sporty? And do you mind if they are better than you at sports?

Ok we have been together 7 years and have 3 children, my boyfriend works very hard 7 days a week as he is self employed. He has drink every day after work. He will drink these before having something to eat and a bath. Most night he will then walk back to the shop and get a couple more cans sometimes just 1. He then has a bath about 11pm and then expects me to cook a proper meal for him (i refuse to do this). When he just has 3-4 cans he is fine we get on brilliantly and he is a brilliant dad. My problem is i think he has a drink problem and it is pushing me away i try and tell him its a turn off to sleep with someone that stinks of beer and i hate him sitting around in his work clothes all nite. Also a couple of times a week we will go to friends houses and he will have about 5 cans then on the way home he will stop and get a few more. On these occassions he will be argumentive and get up late for work. I dont want to leave him but i dont want to be with a drunk either suggestions?

What if a 16-year old decided to leave the state and find a cheap room somewhere. He/she gets a job and supports his/herself and finds a roommate who will live with a kid. He/she pays rent, gas and all that good stuff. So the parents call the police, what will they do? Could they find him/her that easily? And would that kid face a problem in court/end up on paroll? I'm not considering it... I am just very curious as to what may happen.

My Father died in Alabama without a Will. He has a house and 2 cars and $50,000 in bills left over. The house is a HUD house no apparent equity. I don't work so will I have to pay off his bills? The realestate market is slow for buying homes and that made me shy of this matter. I just want to walk away and leave thing for people to grab or homeless people to move in.
