I was ditched in a pretty horrible way by a guy over 20 years ago. I've never heard from him since.

I'm now very happily married with 4 kids.

Now this guy has emailed me. No idea where he got my address. I think he must have cyberstalked me.

Men - can you tell me what you think he is up to?

Women - do you think I should email him back?

I do. People think that love is enough but it isn't. Sure people eventually change and sometimes the marriage survives but the heartache...... You need to agree on how many children you want. How you will raise them. How will you handle money and in-laws. How will the housework and yardwork be handled. No, it isn't very romantic but think of it as a pre-nup. It could save you alot of heartache,money and years of your life. And on the positive side, it could get you and your significant other on the same page or the wonderful feeling you will have if it comes up that you already had everything covered.

It's not like we haven't tasted of each other's carnal flesh, we have, plenty. The sex is one of the better things about the relationship. We are having this huge formal ceremony and my fiance just gave me this present last night. I opened it and found this really intricate chastity belt he had made for me. It is inset with some semi-precious stones and has beautiful metal work. He wants to put it on me a few days before the wedding and then take it off on our wedding night. Am I the only one who thinks this is weird? I feel like I am living in some B and M movie. And my relatives are helping me get dressed, what if they see this? The thing is that he got really mad when I said I wouldn't do it. He said he has gone to a lot of trouble and expense and that it stands for something really important. What should I do?

My fiance and I are going to have a queen sized bed together after we're married. Neither one of us has ever had to share a bed before.

Now, I am not talking about sex at all (so please no lewd comments)...

Are there any helpful hints about how to share a bed with someone and still get a good night's sleep... not worrying about bad breath, stretching out, changing positions, etc. I don't want want to wake up sore from being in one position all night because I was scared to move... or worse, not sleeping much at all because I'm not used to sharing a bed.

Silly as this may seem, I really would appreciate any serious answers.

The fact that it happened 5 or 6 times indicates to me that he had feelings for her. He hasn't seen or talked to her in 7 months. She e-mailed him 2 months ago and he ignored her.

He has told me everything and really feels bad and loves me.

They didn't have sex, but made out at least 5 times over the course of 5 months and flirted with each other for 6 MONTHS before anything happened so he had plenty of time to think about what he was doing.

He says that she is married too and it was only physical, because we didn't kiss like that anymore. I am just worried that he may have more than a physical desire for her because he kept doing it over and over.

What do you think?

What if she contacts him again. What will he do?

My dad wld spend alot of time chattg w the girl on msn at home. I found out bout this cos there was once he did it blatantly with me in the room and i saw the pic of a girl frm e reflection of a glass casing behind him. I scoured e home PCs for any alien email add n easily guessed e password. started reading his emails (n print them out so i have proof should the need arise) and found out he visits her whenever he goes to china. problem is, he has every business to be in china because he is a businessman! I would like to keep this from my mum and sister.My family do not live in china so it is very hard for me to do ath. He is VERY careful w covering his tracks. He deletes e internet cookies/history/recycle bin everytime he uses the PC and also all calls in and out of his cellphone. Pls give me some advise on wht to do. Wld like 2 confront my dad as she was asking for an OMEGA watch. Qt afraid she'd cheat him dry, yet fearful e whole thing will backfire when he know i was stalking him.

Whenever a friend and I turn into really close friends, I start to get clingy. This is a very, very bad habit of mine and I really want to get rid of it before school starts again. Thanks!

i.e, thug, roughneck.

been there, done that. not always easy. what about your experience? what is it about them that some women find attractive?

for me, i didnt know from the beginning when i first met my ex. as the relationship began to grow, i found out the hard way...no hard feelings..just curious. hopefully there are good stories out there, because everyone desires to be loved....or that's what i believe....

I am currently in this situation and it was my husband that told my private feelings to his mother.I was uncomfortable about the sleeping arrangements for the cabin holiday we were going on as an extended family. I have 3 children and we all have to sleep in the one room with the grand parents(they sleep in separate beds) my kids, myself(my husband can't come up the whole week until the weekend ) and my brother in-law and his new girlfriend are going to share a bed)Everyone is in plain view of each other (We are all on bunk beds)and I was uncomfortable about my children being there seeing their uncle sleeping with his girlfriend.I told him I wasn't sure if I wanted to go I asked my husband to not repeat it.He picked up the phone and I begged him not to call, that we could solve this between us and .......well he repeated to his mother. Now his mother & father aren't speaking to me and my husband said that I am not going and the kids are. I told him not if I am not there. I need advise

I've heard this time and time again. I've been advised to start from the very beginning, and to make ur man miss u when ur not around. what's the deal? What's the harm in having it the other way around? Sure, it's all about control, but what's wrong in an even split? Why does there have to be a power struggle? Marriage is so confusing!

...what am I supposed to do now? I know I'm going to catch hell for this but when we first met he was really thin. Then, over the course of about 2 years he gained about 50 lbs. If it were just the weight, there really wouldn't be a problem. But has gotten a promotion and he is walking around with this air of arrogance and I hate it. Like he thinks he's everyones boss (like his old co-workers) now and he really isn't. His attitude (there are other things not just the job situation) and his body has changed, and I'm not too happy....

Hello. I have an old pc, its from 2001 and has 1.1 GhZ processor, Nvidia 2 series and 256 mb RAM, it keeps crashing, and the sound card is broken..not good? i know..

I am trying to convince my dad that it is really bad, and maybe he can support me with some money to a new pc, I am 12 years old so i cant buy one myself.
But he keeps giving me **** like "its very good still, stop complaining!" or "buy one yourself", i have calculated that with those small jobs i can get, it would take 5 years to buy a pc which is BAD, and still, in 5 years, it's even worse !

Please, has someone got any ideas of how i shall convince my rude dad to understand that it is bad and that maybe he could help me with some money?

i Really need one, i have much school works and i have to write!
I would really be glad if anyone could help me..

I'm going away to college in a month and me and my ex boyfriend just got back together after he broke it off. I feel like I have a lot of grudges towards him and I was finally content and over him a couple weeks ago then he recently tried getting back together with me. I have always loved him so I am willing to give it another try. Is it really worth it though? I am leaving for college in a month and we will be 6 hrs apart.

Maybe this is a silly question, I'm not sure, but...

It seems most people expect to drink at wedding receptions. My fiance and I are having a non-alcoholic reception. Do you think we need to make mention of this in our invitation? Or trust that people know us enough not to be bothered about something like that?

We're having entertainment at the reception, so they shouldn't be bored.

I went for a night out with the MRS her self. The thing is my wife has let her self go, she weighs three times as she weighed when we got married but I am not complaining. I am still kept my self fit, tidy and stylish. Anyway as we were sitting enjoying our dinner, this gorgeous lady came and sat on the table next to us.

The tables were quite close & as she looked at me, I said beautiful, she smiled and I complimented her on her appearance. She probably though I was the son & my wife was the mother as I still look young. My wife raged & grabbed my ear and dragged me out. She is kind off dominant as she is heavy & I did not want to stir anything…

Now my wife has not given me a leg over since? Should I go elsewhere? I think my wife is planning on divorce, she is not willing to get counselling & is too obsessive. What should I do?

Ladies, do any of you have problems finding a man willing to date a single Mom. I have a good job, I am not seeking someone to "take care of me" but it seems like as soon as the guy finds out I have kids, then he is out the door without a good-bye. Are there any decent men out there who know a good woman when they see one?
