i have a big problem. when i got engaged, i was close friends with my brothers girlfriend, and so i had asked her to be my 4th bridesmaid. i only have 4 total. and recently we have been hanging out and i noticed that if we are without my brother, we have nothing incomman and just sit and stare at each other in silence. i recently went dress shopping with her and my maid of honor and everything that we liked, she didnt.... in fact she made fun of the styles we picked for the bridesmaid dresses. she does not have much style... anyways., im regreting every asking her and my maid of honor is saying to just suck it up and deal with it because i cant take it back... what do you guys think? im paying for their dresses, so i dont really want to keep her on and have to buy her a dress.

I was wondering if that is the norm..... my mom expressed that she felt a little insulted that I'm a bridesmaid at my best friends wedding and that she and my dad weren't invited. Is that even a normal thing???? I didn't even think about it until my mom brought it up. I didn't know if that was proper etiquette or not.

My husband and I have very few similar interests. There is a play I want to see over the weekend but he thinks plays are boring and he suggested to go with a friend. I don't really want to go with a friend, I want to go with him. What do you think? Is it unfair for me to ask him to do something he doesn't enjoy?

For the past few months, my father has been bugging me about meeting a 22 yr. old woman in the Philippines. My father has been verbally abusive ever since he's been talking aboiut her. He wants me to marry her because she's a nurse and makes a lot of money. He said she's perfect for me and I don't know her very well and she's not my type.

Here is a list of what I have observed on my dad ever since my aunt told us about her:

-My father uses my email account to contact her
-FORCED me to write her emails against my authority
-FORCED me to send her text messages against my authority
-Threatens me if I refuse to marry her
-Asked my relatives and grandparents if I should marry her
-Told friends and relatives that I'll marry her
-Asked my grandmother if I had a fortune involving her
-FORCED to write a Bday card and mail it to her house
-FORCED to date her once we get to the Philippines
-FORCED to buy her a gift
-He can't stop talking/thinking about her

I am having two bridal showers. My mom is throwing one and my fiance's mom is throwing the other. Long story, but they do really get along that's not why. Anyway - who do I have to invite to both showers, if anyone?

He has never been able to trust anyone (not even his mom). He trusts me the most but when it comes to fidelity he gets suspicious.

Did anyone have a dress in this price range? What was the exact cost? What designer was it? Do you have a picture of it?

a friend of mine and i haven't seen each other in some time. he calls me once in a while to just say hi but i rarely have time or think to call him. we went through some weird stuff when we were younger, so i feel akward talking to him now. he doesn't of course. he's also good friends with my brother and he's come over 2 times in the past and i did talk to him but i was a bit shy, i'm not really sure what a good word to describe it is, i wasn't sure what to talk about? i'm feeling better about myself now and i feel like i don't care what anyone thinks anymore, that was part of my problem. but i did tell him about the fact that i'm sorry i don't know how to talk to people anymore, meaning people i haven't seen in ages. i feel like i've changed as a person and sometimes i don't think they'd accept it. ever since i told him this, we were texting because he was working, he hasn't called, written or anything. did i say something wrong. i let him know it wasn't just him, a friend came over

Well I just found out in June that My husband was cheating on me with a fellow employee. He stated that they only talked on the phone, but that is still cheating when you have to hide and lie about it. Now he is stating that he more or less does not want to save our marriage, I still love him and have been doing everything in my power to try to reason with him. I cant figure out what she has that I dont except maybe the newness, maybe he is going through a midlife crisis? I dont know he changes from day to day. But he finally told me over the weekend he was unhappy and didnt want to spend any time with me. (That is I believe what happened from the start of his eyes roaming) I have lost alot of weight over the past two months, I am totally disabled, so it isnt easy, especially trying to walk, but Ive been dealing with the pain, taking my meds right before and laying down after. There is so much more, I dont know what to do here. He's talking divorce, Im in limbo. We have no children.

Okay I am not just saying it is my uncle so I don't have to be embaressed. I am 14 so anyways.....okay my Aunt and My Uncle are divorced. And my Aunt is in the airforce. She has to go to Saudi Arabia. So my mother said she would take my cousins in while my Aunt is gone. And my Uncle (the father) has NO problem with that. And he is 39 dating a 20 year old girl. First of all I said that it is terrible that he is ditching his kids for some 20 year old girl. (And he said (my uncle) that the relationship with the girl will never get to the point to of marriage) Okay so here are the two questions. Is it wrong for my uncle to be dating a 20 year old while he is 39? And is it wrong that he doesn't even care that HIS kids are just going to go with my mother who live totally out of state?

I really like this guy who's in band with me. I like music and he's good at playing his instrument. Band is pretty much my life as well as high grades, though I wish I could be involved/interested in other things. But this guy is. He does paint ball, loves football and NASCAR and knows a lot about the newest electronics and guns. I could talk to him about music, but that's not his passion as is these other things. I'm totally cool with people liking cars and guns and football, I just don't have time to learn and know things about those subjects myself. So how can I get a nice conversation with him that's deeper than a "how are you?" or "how's band?" ???

Today was the last day of Summer School and I was about to ask for this girl's number but then she left. So I asked her friend for her number. She said she didnt have her number. So she said to give me my number and she would give it to her. I lost my cell so I gave her my home number. Problem is that we got a new number at home and I didnt really remember it. I said it was (Area Code)-553-(Rest of number) When it is (Area Code)-533-(Rest of number). So about 30 minutes ago I when sprinting down to the school as fast as I could. But she wasn't there. I may never see her again. (The Summer School has kids from all schools over the city in that school.)

I tried looking for her on myspace and it didn't work. I KNOW she has a myspace. She talks about it all the time. I also looked for her freinds. No luck. Help please!

When my (now) husband gave me the engagement ring, I have to say it was not what I was expecting. He said he was saving money for about a year to give me something spectacular and then I received a ring I could have bought within two months with a small diamond. I was happy be cause we were to get married, and I love him but... that is not what I had in mind I don't even like wearing it at all...

But I love him, the ring is not the most important thing it’s just that I don’t get it.

Im so totally confused. I've liked this guy on and off since grade 4 (6 years ago) and he has liked me the same as well. Now he has a girlfriend. He calls me pritty much everynight, and we talk for hours. Sometimes we wont talk for a couple of months then he'll suddenly call me up and we'll talk all night. It's never awkard between us. BUT he has a girlfriend. I don't know what to do. It seems like he's totally into me. We hung out a couple nights ago with a group, then the two of us walked to his house to grab some stuff. It wasn't awkward, but I could feel this tension there, like we both wanted each other. SOOO confusing!! Suggestions please??

My husband's co-worker made an inappropriate call to him after hours on his cell (not the work cell). She got his # from his personnel file. I called her back, introduced myself & politely told her never to call my husband again outside of working hours & during business hours to use his work # if needed. I was civil & simply stated what I had to say then said thank you, good-bye. My husband works where we live. It's 2 weeks later & the co-worker reports another resident filed a complaint stating I yell @ her when she walks by. Not true. The woman is my neighbor & couldn't be nicer. She spoke with my husband about this & said it didn't happen - she never complained. Then offered to let management know that if we wanted. At this point, I've done nothing, though I am considering a formal complaint against the co-worker. She lied to retaliate because she didn't like me telling her to leave my husband alone. But that lie is on record & could affect my family's living situation. What to do?

You only live once and you have to spend most of your time working. Even worse is now in order to get by many times both parents have to work while kids go to daycare.
