Because my fiance and I, as well as a large portion of the guests, are vegetarian, is it ok to have a strictly vegetarian lunch buffet at our reception? To me, this idea seems no different from non-drinkers not wanting to have alcohol at a reception. If the food is good and not too adventuresome or too spicy, people should be fine, right?

He and I are vegetarian for ethical reasons, and many of his family members are vegetarian for religious (hindu) reasons. My family will eat just about anything, so I'm not too worried about them!

Additional note: This question is not intended to start a debate about the merits of vegetarianism. I'm just asking a question about hosting etiquitte. :-)

My husband's ex-wife has custody of the 17 year old, with support payments, but the boy lives with us. Who does the paperwork, including ending paying the support?

I've been married for a year and a half. It has progressively gotten worse. I feel like I'm to the point where I want to leave, but I don't. He's emotionally abusive, plays tricks/games with me. I guess I'm scared of having to start all over. Any pointers on getting the balls to start over? Or how to decide when you've been pushed too far?

I am in my mid 30's (so is my girlfriend) and her and her friends talk non stop about their divorce, what their ex's did to them, blah, blah. It isnt a matter of them wanting their ex's back, they just talk all the time about what went wrong and what he did wrong. It probably shouldnt drive me crazy but it does. I feel like it is a victim mentality but, they all want to share their stories. Then I have another group of friends that are girls and their previous marriages are rarely, if ever mentioned. That group is brighter, has more going on and is just more well rounded. So, ladies, if you will answer this honestly, is it just a victims mentality?

Hi! I need some help here...I have a very specific style of dress that I want to wear for my Catholic wedding, and I need to know if it's OK.

My dress will be a V-neck sleeveless mermaid style dress (fitted from chest to lower thighs with a flare/train at bottom). I have an hourglass figure, like my curves, and don't want to wear a shapeless A-line or ballgown that covers everything up. I am petitie and curvy, so I don't want my dress to be wearing me!

That said, I need to know if I can "get away" with wearing this kind of dress for the ceremony. I am considering having a lace formal jacket made if need be as a cover.

My priest seems pretty laid back and says he doesn't know anything about fashion or lay down specific rules for brides, so he wasn't much help. I don't think he's that strict, but I would hate to get my dress and not be able to wear it. Yikes! I am concerned because not many brides wear the style of dress that I want.

When your wife gets pregnant most of the time it goes without saying that she will be out of work (if she was working) when the baby comes. She'll be home for a least a few weeks all the way up to a few years. How does it make you feel that men don't get this luxury? They are expected to work non-stop and its never appropriate for a father to quit working while he has a family. What are your thoughts on this? Do you think this would cause you to resent your wife?

My gf and I live far from eachother. It takes about 2 hrs or sometimes 3 to get to her house depending on the train. I do love and would do anything to see her but I cant keep with it all the time. Today is practically the hottest day of the year, people are telling me its hot so watch out for the subways and TV says there is a heat advisory plus I didnt feel well yesterday and I am still filling it today. 95% of the time I go to her house even when its hot, cold, and when I was sick. She says she is having a bad day and she wants me to come by. I dont want to travel bc its hot and I am not feeling well. Is it wrong for me not to go? Should I get a free pass on not going bc I go alot? Does this show maybe I am not a man of my word or make her think I dont love her. Or is she being mean and selfish? Shouldnt she care about my heatlh first? I really do lover her she is my world and I would do anything for her, but I always put my heatlh 1st bc w/o good health it she may never see me

I have this letter I will send, but can someone make sure that is well written... i'll give you the best answer if you please help me. thanks. If anyone has any advice on what to say I appreciate that too.

Listen, I understand you are/were upset about what happened on friday. I will
apologize for yelling at you. I haven't yelled like that at anyone .I was just so pissed off that someone would, take my words and change them around. I honestly, think you deserve to know the truth. I know things will, never be like before... and, I'm fine with that.I just would really like
to have you as a friend because, you're really a cool guy.

That night that girl karlai(orwhaeverhernameis), came up to me and said, she had
something she wanted to ask me. So she said, “that guy kyle i think is trying
to get, in my pants, but, i'm not sure if I want to”;I asked, “why not?”. She said, that
she wasn't sure, because she was a virgin. Her friend said, that she wasn’t gonna let her do it because, she’d partied with you and knew what you were like. Then she asked me if I was a virgin, I
told her “no.” Then she asked me about my first time. I told her my own
personal story. I told her, I waited until I was out of High School and over
18, because I did not want to be another statistic.. I didn't want to be that
pregnant girl in High School who drops out. I was in a relationship with
someone I really cared about.

I then asked her friend if she was a virgin. She said, “no.” I asked her old
was she.. she said 19/20 and she was with him for like a few months. I told
her see, but, you can do whatever want or think is right. I just personally,
didn't want it to be some random guy who didn't give a **** about me, just
**** me then not talk to me and just give me STD’s or something. Then sarah
walked in and said, “yeah or some guy who's slept with like 80 girls.”

Then that Diana chick walked in with her friend, and we started talking about
dancing and going to a club and having a girls night out. I never once
mentioned your name or STD’s in the same sentence. No one ever mention the word Chlamydia
in there. I never said, “don't hook up with kyle.” She asked, about my own
personal experience and I was honest.

Now, that I told you what really happened . If you really choose not to talk me. I can understand and respect that. But, I hope things don’t have to be that way./

It seems amazing that I'm even asking this. I graduated college, but I'm still working the crappy retail job that I had during those years. I'm starting grad school (an MA program), which restricts what kind of job I can go for... basically, I can't make that much more money than I'm making now, as long as I stay in school.

At the rate I'm going, I'll be broke in about a year and a half. Savings gone, and not making enough money to pay rent, food, and tuition. My job now pays for rent...barely, and I use my savings from my time in the military to cover the rest.

What should I do? I could give up on my dreams and drop grad school to get a full-time job, or give up my self-respect and live with my folks, who are now about a 45-min commute from my university.

Right now I'm going to go as long as the savings will hold me, but I'm starting to see the writing on the wall... Wouldn't I be a 25-yr old loser if I lived with my folks again?

Okay, I have this guy that I've been friends with for a few months now and I'm starting to really like him.

I mean, we flirt constantly when we are around each other and he kisses me on the cheek and on the the forehead and stuff like that, but I don't know if he is serious or just fooling around.

He told me last night that he liked my eyes. I want to tell him how I feel, but I'm afraid of rejection. How does a shy girl confess how she feels without getting in too deep?

Any suggestions?
