Family & Relationships - 6 September 2007

I am a mother of 4 children, 13, 6, 3, and 1. He has 2 children, but all grown ofcourse. He's very young looking, and is looking to treat me like a queen. He says he's ready to have little kids around and feels it might be a lot of fun as he misses it. I want to hear those who have a 20 year age gap, and what issues you all have had. I don't want to hear from the people who have never done this.. and just want to tear me to shreds! :) I am not a gold digger, as we have the same amount of assets and liquid funds. Not about the money at all.

So, I am engaged and am planning a wedding for sometime in April or May 2008. I already know who is in my bridal party. 1. My cousin (Age 18) 2. My sister (Age 16) and 3. My friend Carrie (Age 21).

My dilemma is this...I want my cousin to be my MOH. I would love to have my sister, but for one, she'll be in school and two, I'm not sure she'll be able to handle the responsibilities.

My grandmother is furious! She says my sister should be my MOH and that she may not even come if I don't.

Isn't this my wedding where my future husband and I make the decisions? Who's right?

he's been one of my closest friends for yrs and before, i wouldn't ever look at him as "hot" - he was someone
i always valued and we talked to each other about everything. he's secretly liked me (had no clue), shy guy,
late bloomer, he can only be open with me - never had a gf or kiss (in his 20's)

Fell for each other hard beg of this year - gave him his first kiss and for a moment we were together - it was amazing.
I NEVER expected to fall for him but it was amazing...we kissed, cuddled, took care of each
other for a "moment" (nothing too much but gave him his first kiss :)...we decided not to rush things
and just to stay friends - we're young and focused on getting school done and there's too much on our plate.

after this happened, he had lost someone close to him and he shut me out. For the next few months we haven't
spoken or seen each other. While this was going on, rumors and assumptions were flying around our friends and
pretty much a bad case of misunderstanding occured between us so by the time we would talk, we insecure and jealous.

I don't know why but i'm so scared of losing him. I'm not the jealous type at all, i'm very easygoing. I've only had one boyfriend
(high school) and even w. him I didn't feel like this. For as long as i've known him he's always had alot of girl friends and that's no
big deal but just scared that one of his friends might look at him differently the way it happened w. me. I never expected to
see him like that b/c we're friends but i fell for him. He's such an amazing person, has strengths and flaws but he's a catch...
i'm just scared there's gonna be someone better than me he'd go to...why am i like this?

I'm only asking because I know way to many people who are and it just amazes me. And most openly admit it, but they still stay.

Ok, so I have spent a month thinking about what I want to take in college and I have come up with biotechnology. I have searched dozens of colleges and programs that interested me and I know this is the one I want to take. It's in Seneca College in Toronto and it's only 2.5 hours away from where my family live. I have the option of going this January but they are holding me back. They say I'm not mature enough because I don't talk alot to people even though I'm working on that and have shown major improvement. My Uncle and some friends think I'm mature enough to go to college. I've tried talking to them but it's always, "No, that's the end of discussion. No more talking about it". I know this may seem like whining to get what I want but I really have thought this through for a great lenghth of time. They even held me back from getting my driver's license. I was 16, I failed the driving test my parents wouldn't let me take it again for five months. I also have my own money for college.

I'm getting married next year and I have never had a great relationship with my dad - not bad either. He was just never there for me, never came to my sporting events, school events (only high school graduation). My mom pretty much raised me and I have asked her to walk me down the aisle as he will have the father daughter dance. As you can see i'm the furthest thing from "daddy's girl", and have NO idea what song to pick...

About two months ago I discovered that my husband was a little too close to a woman he works with. They email, text and talk on the phone constantly. He tries to hide all of it from me. If I ask to use his cell he first deletes things from it. I discovered the content of some of there conversations, and they were sexual in nature. When I confronted him about it, he said it was flirting that got out of hand. Call me stupid but I decided to believe him and asked him to stop. He promised that he did, but yesterday I came across more. This time they were much worse. It was basically her professing her love for him and him apologizing for hurting her. What am I suppose to do? He still claims that nothing happened. He says he thought about it, but didn't do it. I am so hurt I am not sure how to get over this, or if I should even try.

I am going to a co-worker's wedding with many other people from work. I wouldn't say we're close, but we're in the same crowd at work. There are a bunch of co-worker weddings coming up, so money is definitely tight. Someone at work asked what kind of gift I was going to give him and I said probably $100 (I'm not bringing a guest). They all started laughing and said I was being cheap! It's not like this is the wedding of the century - as far as I know it's not like there's going to be fireworks and a parade! I'm in a union and they all know I'm at the bottom of the pay scale. Enough babbling - Is $100 enough? If not, what is enough?

I like this guy. I thought he liked me. I got up the courage to tell him but he didn’t say whether he liked me or not. At the time, we were both involved w/other people.
Aside from some awkwardness (like we're almost never alone anymore), it's back to normal and I'm back to thinking that he likes me cause he makes it a point to be where I am during breaks and after class and he seeks me out when we're in a group. We still text all night, every night and he makes it a point to hang around me. But then he says things like "the other guys aren't coming (to study) so it'll just me, you don't have to come" and he draws clear lines that are so obvious. I’m thinking that maybe I was wrong and that he doesn’t like me. How can I tell if he just thinks of me as a friend? BTW, he recently told me that he broke up with his GF and I’m separated from my husband although I’m afraid to tell him cause it feels awkward. What do I do?

I have a friendly aquaintance and she had a new baby and so I got her some baby outfits and I have been trying to give them to her for about a month now and she has rescheduled on me 4 times now, saying shes too tired for visitors. I work with her hubby and today I told him I would be back up to work later today after I got off work, to give him that stuff and he said ok and when I got there, he was already gone! I was pretty much so mad I was fuming and shaking... it just makes me sick how people are like that! And i cant take the stuff back because I took all the tags off and everything. I am going up there tomorrow morning to try again and after that, that is it! What do you think I should do? Have you ever been so frustrated w/ someone it made you sick to your stomach? Should I stop talking to her?

I am totally annoyed by my husband 13 year old daugther. He is the best husband, he iis so nice to my 4 year old daugther pays for her gym and for her private school. I feel so bad because I am pregnant with his son. The 13year old girl is adopted. I just don't like her for many reasons one of them being that she is rude and spoiled rude and bossy with him. I am never rude to her and talk to her whenever she is not being rude but I honestly I can't stand her. She is this ugly fat thing that all she does is trying to separate me from her father. Please understand me I know I sounded mean but I am the nicest I could be with a girl like her I know she is only 13 years old but she looks so big she doesn't look 13 that is for sure more like 19 , or 20. I am 26 years old and I am very young for her father. I need you all to tell me how to act . Why can I just like her!

Hey, i'm 15 years old now, and now that im in high school, there's so much going on, that i can't keep up with boyscouts which my dad is making me do. Problem is, it's affecting schoolwork and i seriously hate it...not that i hate the organization, i just hate having another thing to do...so i go up to him and tell him that its not something i would like to do, and the responce has to do with it looking good on college apps and that it would be very good for me to do. also that he wants me to do it...I dont! and ive said that..it's frustrating to me because everytime i get yelled at, its for being behind in boy scouts or having bad grades which is because of the organization...this was told to my dad by me, and yet im still doing it!!! so i decided that i wanted to ignore the fact that im in it and focus on my schoolwork, but it keeps getting in the way, meetings,camps,ect. Not only that...it's hard to ignore constant yelling from him and contradicting statements like..for ex.

I had this dream that I went to a house (it was abandoned) with an old school friend(she had a key to the house) where a husband killed his wife and child(i think a boy) then he killed himself. I walked into the house and to the left was a garage with a staffy (dog, looked like my mum and dads neighbours dog) in it alive and well. To the right was the kitchen and the left there was a hallway where the husbands room was and over the hallway was the childs bedroom. To the right of the kitchen was a dining room/loungeroom. and leading off the lounge room was the main bedroom where the wife slept. Everything seemed like the family lived there but they were dead and had been for some time. We then left the house into the streets where everything and everyone was so close. The thing i noticed when I walked outside was everyone was pregnant male and female but I wasn't pregnant but the one person that stood out to me was my friends Mum so heavily pregnant. This dream was in bright colour
