Family & Relationships - 12 July 2007

I moved with our baby from UK to USA to be with my husband.

Right now we are saving like crazy to put debts aside so we can buy a small house of our own.

His parents own a 6 apartment building, and we have been living here on slightly cheaper rent, they live in the one above us.

But I am getting so fustrated b.coz I feel like I am being watched and commented on all the time, about absolutely everything!

Like if it's a hot day, I put the a.c on and she comes and tells me why don't I just open the window like she does, when it's 90 outside. Then if I tell her we are ordering food later it's too hot to cook, she tells me his ex wife used to put the a.c on and get cooking so why can't I.

Then she tells my my 22 month old daughter is small b.c I didn't eat much so she didn't take from me or my breastmilk. Now she is 22 months old, she tells me she is too young to have been taken off a bottle she should drink milk in a bottle til shes 3.

Aaaargh I know it sounds petty...

She is always telling me that I dont feed my daughters enough food (they are 6 and 7). For example, I would make for lunch a ham a cheese sandwich and give them some yogurt or a banana along with the sandwich....thats a good little lunch. My mom tells me thats not enough food. She tells me I dont feed them enough food. Shes just so overbearing and they are not even really her grandchildren. The girls are really my stepdaughters. Yesterday, she told me I wasnt giving them enough for dinner and the next thing I know, I get a knock on my door. Its my dad with a bag of KFC for the girls. First of all, i wasnt dressed properly, secondly, they should have called and asked me if it was ok. It just makes me feel like they think i am incapable of being a mother. I also have a 9 month old son. It really hurt my feelings and i tried to tell them, but they wont listen. my mom hung up on me! any advice????

Im 13 and a half. I know about emancipation and i plan to get emancipated when im old enough. I never get along with my parents, we always fight. My mom just goes off and cries but my dad shouts. Sometimes i hear my mom scream and i think he might be hurting her. Lately he's been shouting at me more and more. Sometimes he gets so mad he gets this crazy look in his eyes and i get terrified. I just freeze and pray he won't hit me. He has never actually hit me. And i have no proof he hits my mom. I am just afraid he will lose it one day and hit me...i have one younger brother whom i love. He's 11. I do not think he is aware what is happening. Just to be clear, My dad has never hit me and i have no proof he hits my mom. I am just afraid he will hit me and i don't want to take that chance. I am 13 and a half and my brother just turned 11. What do i do? Help me please.

Thanks so much, I appreciate it a lot.

And who gave it to you?

Mine was: Love people for who they are - not who you want them to be -- and that was from my grandmother.

So, there is this guy who lived in my town during Hockey season and I had been in a relationship for the first half of the hockey season but once I met the Goalie everything changed. I broke up with my boyfriend which i dont regret. But once the season ended my "goalie" had to move back home, where his psycho ex-girlfriend lives. "Goalie" would lie to her abouteverything and to me, so he could be with both at once. I came to visit him in his home town and we had a blast but that didn't stop his ex-girlfriend from calling/texting BOTH of us every 10 min. It was horrible and she even talked about suicide to get his attention cause she didn't have it while I was there. 2 weeks later he was supposed to come back and spend a week with me. He is 21 and told me his dad said he couldn't come. I was understanding,but then he all the sudden had a change of attitude towards me. Like he wouldn't talk to me.
I'm guessing the Ex (crazy psycho) that she is got him back.
What do you think??

I know a girl who was rather shy when I first met her. She is exceptionally smart, however, and rather mature for her age. She may be a little too young for me, but only by three years. Really, I became quite enfactuated with her. I even wrote her a short humorous book. And there were times when I was absolutly positive that she liked me, even while she had someone else.

I still like her, but am not sure if she feels the same. I am a regular smoker that comes from an irresponsible family. She comes from an upper-middle class family and gets straight A's. When I tried to go after her once, I wanted to do good for myself. I stopped doing drugs completely for 2 months, even though I enjoy doing them. I recently wrote her a letter and handed it to her, and have not talked since. I instead picked back up on smoking.

What do I do? Do I give up on what I enjoy to try and make somethin with this girl? Or do I not even have a chance with her? I've probably over played my hand..

Okay, long story short, there is a chick that I have been teamed up with in class. She is a blast to be around, and I would like to hang out more with her, but she's gay. I want to hang out with her outside of class, but I don't want her to get the wrong idea. What should I say or do I even need to say anything?

Should we just expect this behavior when we are married or is it really worth breaking up about?

I know nothing about cocaine. My boyfriend comes home from work and is extremley mean (yelling, cussing, throwing things) at me and my children. I know that a guy he works with does cocaine. He is been hanging out with him a lot lately. My question is when you come down are you mean.
I just dont know what is going on with him. He has no other symptoms like runny nose, red eyes, sniffling or anything like that, he is losing a little weight and hardly ever sleeps. He goes to bed at like 12:00 and has to be at work at 4:30. Like I said no other obvious signs, unless they dont appear until youve been using for a while. When you come off your coc high are you mean and irritable. How long does a coc high last? Im very confused at why he is treating us so bad, I thought it could be from coming dowm off a coc high, I have never done it so I dont know. If someone knows how people on coc are or some early signs could you please let me know, I'm at the end of my rope. Thanks a lot

No wI know Im proably to young to even consider this but Ive been thinking about it for a while and Im just curious what people on here think. Ive been going out with this great girl for a few months now. And an extra thing is we have known each other for 3 years. We are very close to each other and know each other very well. We both belive this will last a very long time if not foever. Now we are both 17 and graduating next year and plan to try and stay close to each other or even share an appartment together. Now what I have been thinking about. Would it be to soon to purpose to her the night of are senoir prom next year? I figure that if we can last that long together with sign of faulter it would be a good assumption to make that we will be together longer. What do you all think? Good idea or to soon?

There's nothing a girl hates more than when a guy says he'll call and then he doesn't. With modern technology, we aren't stuck waiting by the phone - we can carry it with us - but the disappointment is no less - it's greater because we know he's carrying a cell too, so he doesn't have the "wasn't near the phone" excuse. Anyway, my best friend (Sam) introduced me to an old friend of his (Josh) who is single again. Sam's been talking Josh up to me for weeks - about what a great, super nice guy he is. Josh, Sam and I went out for drinks and Josh and I seemed to hit it off pretty well. Josh and I planned to get together Thursday night, and when I spoke with Josh Tues. he said he'd call Wed. to finalize details. Guess what? He didn't call -- what gives? It makes women feel humiliated and rejected. If you're not going to call or follow through - don't say you will. I appreciate some insight here - I've been doing this too long to still be getting upset about it.

He pushed me and I went ahead and reported it to the police since I went to seek medical help. I am doing much better now and we both looking to probably go our seperate ways. I want to move on from my past and really do not want him to go through any more legal procedures... is there anything I can do?

So, I'm getting married in Vegas in 2 months, and suddenly we found out our best man (my fiances' best friend) can't come to the wedding. The details aren't important, but he won't be there. I'm pretty annoyed considering we gave him a year and a half notice ahead of time, but the show must go on... My fiance has no siblings, and the only members of his family attending are his mother, father and step mother. His other friends may not even be able to come (everyon'es broke, I guess) and really the original best man is his closest friend and he doesn't want to make anyone else second choice. We have no other bridal party, only his friend and my sister were going to do it. What do I do?? Do we have his father as best man? Do we scrap the wedding party all together? What is the purpose of them anyway? Just to stand there? Can I have all of our guests stand (about 15 ppl) and gather around us?

Can girls and guys just be friends??? I have an awesome guy friend. We have everything in common. He has even told me that he can talk to me like I am one of the guys. But many of my friends are telling me that somehting is going to happen and we are going to get together. They say this because we make fun of each other, joke, flirt, all that. I still think that girls and guys can just be friends. Can they?
