Family & Relationships - 10 August 2007

just wondering if that private bit of information is something that women share with their best friends....

my hunch is "yes", which makes me a little nervous b/c I am "small"!

So, is my little secret a secret?

Ive seen lots of people doing this in this forum recently. Even if I didnt get the wedding of my dreams, I would feel too silly re-staging a wedding when I was already married. After getting married, Id like to move forward with the marriage. Id like to know what other people think about this.

In other words, if someone offered you $____ to leave someone, would you? How much? Or could it never be enough?

He keeps texting me with accusations that I cheated on him and blah blah blah, when in fact he is the one who cheated and i left him. This has been going on for 3 months. I changed my number once and he somehow got it again.
I need to know some very clever comebacks to his idiot statements.
It's very hard to aviod or ignore, I have and I can't stand him saying those things about me.
He has even texted my new boyfriend and told him lies. He has tried to break us up by saying that I am still sleeping with him, which is not true. I know there is a clever way to handle this!!! HELP!!!
I'm about to go insane. Any suggestions?

My wife and I have been married for 13 years.We have 3 children,aging parents,we each have a career,countless other demands.To top it off,she is a perfectionist in all things,so she is always stressed about somthing.Often she has not much time and energy left at the end of the day for romance.
What do you sugest?

i have been seeing this guy for over 2years now and his ex is still a major part of his life. she calls at least 5 times a day (at all hours) and he doesn't say anything, first gripe. then when we are all out in public at a location we mutually go to, he doesn't treat me as a bf would his gf, he says he does it out of respect for her, gripe number 2. Every family function he has somehow she manages to be invited to and to keep the peace (so he says) i don't get to go, gripe number 3. yes we started seeing each other right after they seperated but that was our decision and she needs to deal with it. now there was once when i found out they had slept together since we started seeing each other, but i forgave and we moved on, but lately i am feeling alot of resentment towards her, i don't owe her a thing and he feels like he does. i do love this guy and he says he loves me. i know that they have to talk to discuss their teenage boys, but shouldn't there be a line drawn by him?

I’ve ran into a ton of woman who love to lie about this.

I ask a simple question like " What country you from ???

and they tell you " Oh I am a mutt I am 1/2 Chinese, 1/3 Italian, 1/9 Dutch, 1/30 Swiss, 1/90th Norwegian, 1/5 German , 1/8 French, 1/3 Portuguese, 1/2 Chiwawa and part German Shepard……and ummmm….Oh yeh and part native American ( they usually say Cherokee )……

WHy Cherokee? Is that the only tribe you can think of? Just Pathetic !!

Why do they feel like they have to lie and make stuff up when they have no idea where their ancestors are from?

If you don't know.......DON'T make stuff up! It's silly! You are not any cooler by making stuff up!

Just to let you know it is VERY ANNOYING!! You must have low self esteem....to make stuff up to try to make your self sound exotic.

DONT DO IT!!

I am from Central America ( El Salvador) I am light skinned with light hair and hazel eyes. When people ask me where I am from. I DONT say

"oh I am part Mayan Indian and Spanish “

Ok, we have a good sex life but my husband isn't as young as he used to be (he's in his early 40's) and sometimes he's just not as "there" as he was in the past. I wonder if Viagra would bring things back to more like how they used to be. But I'm terrified of hurting his self-esteem if I suggest that he needs Viagra.

Don't get me wrong...this isn't an all the time thing. Last night he felt like a baseball bat! But it makes me want it like that all the time!

Any ideas on how I could suggest this without hurting his feelings? Is there any way I can get a "sample pack" or something like that to give to him? What do you think?

My husband and I are having a "vow renewal" wedding ceremony because we got married in a hurry and just had a civil ceremony with dinner at applebees after. In a year or two we are going to do the big ceremony, and we'd like to ask in lieu of gifts, our guests bring money so we can further enjoy our honeymoon. We have been living together since about 3 months into our relationship, and have aquired all the home goods necessary. Is this unclassy? Will our guests take offense to it?

I love my 11 year old daughter so much. But I don't feel we are close. I give her what she wants within reason. I try to give her alone time with me. But she isn't close to me like my son is. My son comes up to me all the time and just hugs me or sits with me. She only hugs me when I go to work thats it. Never just because. She always complains she is bored, but when I try to do things with her she says she is not interested in what I suggest. I ask her what she wants to do and she tells me I don't know, never mind. I want my daughter to love me and know how much I love her. What can I do?

I had a feeling my dad was with someone else besides my mom. But instead of comfronting him, I told my mom.
And when my mom asked him what's the deal, he said it was just a friend.

On his phone he sent her text messages saying "I Love You". He said that when he sent these, he meant it a friendly "I Love You".

He bought her shoes. He said it was a gift. Like friends give each other. So it was just a friendly gift.

And he swears he didn't have sexual contact with her, it was just a friend.

But my Mom can't believe him. She thinks he's lying. And that this was more than a friend. But I kinda believe him, he doesn't seem like the guy that would cheat.

My Mom forgave him.
For two weeks, saying okay, maybe u didn't cheat.
Then she started again, and got all mad at him.
She just won't get over it.
My dad tried everything from flowers and jewelery.
He says sorry everytime.
But she won't get over it.
How do i get my mom to get over it?
and realx?

He will not keep something away from his best friend that is private and personal to me even if I ask him to. I think it is none of his business but my fiance thinks he should be able to tell him if he wants. He said that his best freind is just as important as I am and he will not keep anything from him.

I'm in dire need of help/advice!
I have been dating a guy for 4 years and we run a business. The first year was great sex mad (as it always is) then it slowly started to dwindle..i know this is normal, but its maybe half a dozen times a year now. We don't live together. I'm not the shy retiring type, I'm up for trying anything, I'm attractive, look after my appearance and am very loving and affectionate. I always make the first move, which 99.9% of the time is rejected...usually due to tiredness/too stoned or he has fallen alseep..lol
I have not discussed this with anyone as I wouldn't want to hurt him if it somehow got back to him, so I'm trying this as a last resort! ...I have tried everything I can think of...seduction, the don't talk about it approach, the talk about it calmly approach, the go mental and lose the plot approach, I've even tried asking if he is gay/having an affair/or does he want to end it.I dont nag him about it but for gods sake I'm only human..so should i ?

For those in long-term relationships, do you wear make-up around the home etc. if you aren't going to be going out? I don't, but sometimes I feel I should make more of an effort for my partner and for myself (look way slobish without make-up!). At other times I think that I should give my skin a chance to breathe so to speak.

My finace and I have been engaged for 10 months now and will be getting marred this October. When he asked me to marry him we were both in school and broke! I was also so surprised I never had the chance to "let him know what types of rings i liked". DONT get me wrong i Love what my ring represents and that HE picked it out but i genuinly think its ugly!

No we are at a point in our lives where we have graduated and are making lots more money. My question is should I just keep my ring and never say a word or is there a nice way of keeping the diamonds, and band and upgrading? I really dont want to hurt his feelings but it really is ugly and he bought it at a bad time in his life. Is this vain or mean or b*tchy???? Its not just about having bigger diamond i would have MUCH MUCH rathered one stone verser a band with lots of little ones. I dont like showing it to people when they ask to see it :(
