Family & Relationships - 22 August 2007

There's a saying that you know it's love when: they're late home, you don't know where they are, and you'd rather they were cheating on you than dead in a ditch somewhere. My husband left me for another woman eight months ago. I often find it easier to think of him as dead (and not because I wish him dead). It hurts less. If anyone has been through something personal that's relevant, which would you prefer - that he/she died, or dumped you for another?

What would you say or do about this situation?

In spite of regular work-outs and high protein diet (usually), I am having hard time putting on muscles. Is it mostly genetic?

Or is religious timed protein ingestion necessary?

(I know when it comes to building muscles, over-training is worse than under-training.)

My older sister is married but they can't support having children right now. She was using birth control but of course abstinence is the only thing that is 100% to prevent pregnancy. So she stopped having sex with her husband. He is now going to file for divorce because they haven't had sex in 3 months!!!!!!!!!!! What is she supposed to do?

I don't know what to do, I want to save our marriage! I love him so much! We've only been married a little over a year. He says he just isn't happy anymore! We are now expecting a little boy due Oct. 4... I want this all to work out!

The situation:

Bf and I are on a break. It started this morning. It was his idea. He believes I distance myself from him physically,emotionally,sexually,mentally,etc.. and says he feels alone in the relationship. I understand I've been doing this, Im going through extreme anxiety problem...Hes fed up bc i havent seen a dr yet and dont take meds for it.

He says he loves me but is not in love with me right now, bc of how I have treated him..(??? honestly, Im a really good gf..i think its a cop out)

anyways, I want to look at this break as a good oppurtunity for the both of us, but I need help doing so. He comes home for like 10 minutes and even his tone has changed with me..he seems very unconcerned and disinterested & has someplace to go, stuff to do w/ the boys (he is actually hanging with the guys, not w/ other girls, i know for a fact)

Ne ways, when he is ready we are supposed to figure out if the time alone makes us want each other more or want out of relationship.

Is it okay to omit the dancing of the the maid of honor and the best man and everyone else in the bridal party? My bridal party doesn't really know my fiances best man and the groomsmen really well. I hate to put everyone in an awkward position by making them dance together. To tell you the truth, I've always thought it was a really stupid tradition. Am I the only one that thinks it's silly?

okay anyone else ever been in this predicament? My inlaws are here from india to see the birth of their 1st grandchild (great that's nice). They are very nice people don't get me wrong, but I feel like a guest at my own house. They are kind enough to cook for me (since I'm so big right now, they're not complaining at all and are helping out). But they eat completely different foods from what i'm used to (I don't want to eat it and be rude). and they watch these shows that I don't understand the language! All day I sit and wait for my husband to get home at 6-7pm. They're here for a total of 18 weeks (oh hell yea i'm counting), but how do i prevent this from future visits? I don't want them staying for such long periods! We have no privacy at all. I feel like I'm visiting my inlaws house and I don't even live there...

I know this girl & I told her I like her, & lately shes been emailing me, talking 2 me more often...even when shes tired shes still willing to talk, she'll ask me how my day is, she says she misses me from to time & it seems like she likes me as well, anyhow, for some reason if i compliment her and say she looks pretty or her hair is soo nice, I also tell her that she has soo much potential and I don't want her limiting herself as just another pretty face because she has so much more to offer to herself especially. Now she says I'm lying :-s like wtf or she thinks that shes not pretty enough :-s & for some reason shes been getting moody around me lately to, and I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!, so does she like, whats her problem and does it seem like she has low self esteem?

She is living with a man and is very self sufficient, but he is a sucker when it comes to her manipulative ways. He is not far from retirement and doesn't even have a pension built up yet.
I don't think he is really thinking this through and I think he is going to deplete his savings because of this. How can I prevent him being taken advantage of in this way and who can I talk to about it?

I told one of my female friends i loved her and we have known each other for 2 months. She asked me if i wanted her to be my girlfriend and i said yes. We started hanging out! Each time she tried to seduce me, resisted and this happened 4 two weeks. She later on asked me if i love her, i said yes, she tried again but i refused. She is now angry with me, she doesnt even answer my calls. I really love that girl but i dont want to go to that part so that was why i asked the question.

He said he found it on "the onion" (website). There is a guy that is an expert pick up artist. My fiance is glued to his tv and says "he can't believe this idiot". The guy is somewhat attractive and dresses a bit alternatively.

Why is he interested in this? And if he is honest when he says "I can't believe it"... why is he so superficial on how he looks?

Once I think that I've figured the male species out.. it proves that I've been horribly wrong.
