Family & Relationships - 20 August 2007

My boyfriend proposed just 2 weeks ago and everyone is asking if we have a date set and what our plans are. I don't even know where to start! We know we want a small wedding, but other than that we don't know what to do. Who do we call if we want it in a church, or outside in a park? How far in advance should we send out invitations (once we pick a date). What else should we be thinking about and planning for? Any advise would be great :)

I met "John" 4 months ago. We are both mature for our 23 years of age. We immediately fell for one another and realized that we both fulfill everything we've been looking for in a partner. He proposed and I happily said yes. Now that a date has been set and the wedding plans official, I'm recieving feedback from friends and family who question if 4 months is long enough to make this type of commitment. I feel that, although I may not know his every side, I know him enough believe we are extremely compatible. Any challenge we come against in our relationship will not change the way I feel about him. Yet, I still wonder: are we moving too fast?

I always feel really insecure about myself because I am tall ( about 5 foot 10 ) I also have strawberry blonde hair. I feel like guys don't come up to me because of these features. So I was wondering, guys: would you date a girl who was as tall as me, or do you find tall girls unattractive?

If you had a 15 year old daughter, who is a good girl all around, what you you let her do with her friends?

Would you let her go out on dates, let her go to the movies with her friends (with no adults), go over to guy friends houses..things like that?

im 15, and i just want to know what you think the rules should be!!

I posted a question asking if it was OK for a man to cheat on his wife if she had no interest in sex due to menopause. I had to laugh when I saw so many responses that took me to task. Fact is, I do not favor it. Is it human nature to assume the worst? Or did I hit a nerve with a lot of women?

My friend just got turned down by the girl he loved, but this isn't a normal turn down though. He was dumb enough to ask why she turned him down which lead to him learning that she considers him more of a big brother and that a relationship between them would never work out. Then he was retarded enough to make a deal that he would recognize that they could never be together and he would never try to ask her again. The guy is a nice guy, but he is friends with a chick magnet who is perfect at doing everything. That is who the girl has a crush on and the reason he stood no chance of dating her. I'm the guy closest friend and was rooting for him but he told me that that was one reason she wouldn't date him because there were alot of people trying to help him with her. Now his whole life from that day has been a emotional rollercoaster, he seems to be trying to get himself to hate the girl but I know his love for her is too strong. Please help me with situation.

Why is it that my ex boyfriend who cheated on me and got another girl pregnant keeps contacting me. He married her and constantly tells me he is so happy. Then he turns around and ask me how happy am I in my marriage. He constantly tries to see me and make arrangements for us to get together even when I tell him to get lost. He pretends like his wife is the best thing that could have happened to him.

Like that saying" If you're accusing me of cheating', u must be doing it. Well, I'm not cheating on him. I never did him wrong or plan to hurt him in any way. I love him enough I stayed w/ him and married him after all that I found out and went through. I feel like this cuz he did it to me, & damn did it hurt me soooooooooo much! He says that he might as well cheat since I'm thinkin' & accusin' him of doin' it. I don't wanna get hurt again. I don't wanna go through that pain anymore. I'm tired & I wanna trust him, but how can I if he takes off everytime he decides to drink & goes to places he should be??? I love him, he's the father of my daughter and I just wanna trust him w/ everything'......in the Bible it says "do not put ur trust on man, put ur trust on God." The Lord knows my heart & knows I haven't done my husband wrong or plan to do so. He thinks I'm doing him wrong, but God knows I've been real. I accuse him cuz he did me wrong and I'm scared of being there again.

I need some help picking a bridesmaid dress for my wedding. My 50 year old mom is my matron of honor and very nervous about how she will look standing next to a bunch of "young 25 year olds." We found this dress that looks great on her but I need to know how it would look on the other girls because everyone is different.

Two maids are hour-glass shaped, NOT overweight but not petite.
One maid is a stick with long legs but kinda a bubble but.
One maid is thin with a square figure, no hips.

Here's my question, what is your body type (round, pear, square, hourglass, petite, big/small chest) and would this look good on you?
I think it would be universally flattering, but only my mom and I tried them on and we have the same body shape.

If this wouldn't be flattering, please let me know why/where it wouldn't be.

Some of the boys at our school think she is annoying. Only a very small percentage of boys think she is OK. She wants to ask a boy out but she doesn't want to look like a fool and be talked about by all the boys. What should she do?

At 13 she made mistakes, went through a bad phase, did stuff behind my back, was under influence of bad friends. To my hubby and me trust and honesty have alwas been very important. She apologized, said she understood she was wrong and promised to change but we emphasized she had broken out trust and had to abide by the consequences. She got a harsh punishment and though she dod her best to get out trust back we were harsh and it took us several months to trust her again. She suffered a lot, our trust was very important to her, actually this broke her spirit. She turned up into a great girl, made us proud, but got sad, stopped talking with us, became a stranger. She never messed up again, but we could never have her love again. We tried to talk, she even went to counselling but didn't change. Polite but distant. She told us she couldn't see us as loving parents any more. Today she's married, graduated, a great youmg woman, has a girl and nothing has changed. Hardly talks to us.

Most guys see a crowd of women and can pick out the most attractive to their taste. I don't care what a woman looks like, so for me to know in whom I'm interested, I need a half-hour of decent conversation, which isn't possible walking down the street or at a lively party. I'm not incapable of asking a girl out, but I'm too nervous to do it without some real desire to be with this person rather than any other. I need some way to spot quality women in a short time. I am not sure such a thing exists, but does anyone have any ideas?

Assuming he is naturally very hairy all over. Back sholders arms, pretty much from head to toe.

What should be shaved totally, what should be trimmed, and what should be left alone?

Her mom just died of cancer, her youngest sister committed suicide as a result, & her baby niece died from malnutrition all in the same day. My friend said that's too much for her to deal with, & she hates funerals because it's church-related & she hates church. However, she's very sad to lose 3 famiy members at once.

I kind of think that's messed up.

Would you want to know if she's pregnant and she is going to get one? Or would you rather not know?

I have a friend married less than 5 months and everytime she turns around her husband is accusing her of being unfaithful and is always going behind her back checking computer files and recently even has admitted to going behind her back to check the caller ID and to check the home and cell phones phone books to see if there are any new numbers listed. Now this female comes from a large family of 9 kids total and there is no way on earth he could possibly know who is family and who isn't. He just jumps to the conclusion that she has something to hide and that she is cheating on him. His 1st wife cheated on him with a guy from the net, but the only reason my friend still has a PC at all is for her work and her school classes. I'm afraid this situation is going to turn physically violent if it continues. She has PTSD and can not take much stress.

I do have male friends that flirt with me a lot but when it comes to dating they date other random girls. My friends do not share the same problems as me and don't know what I'm doing wrong.
