Family & Relationships - 13 September 2007

After 11 years of marriage, my wife began having affairs. It started with one, which I forgave, then she went on a trip and slept with two other people and tried for a third. After she returned, she started going out for drinks with her friends and soon slept with two other guys. I finally told her to leave after she invited a guy over to the house while I was away on a week long conference. That was the final straw and I told her to leave the house, me, and our four kids. Now she accusses me of being too narrow minded of her new swinging lifestyle. She's moved in with a boyfriend and doesn't understand why I won't let her take our kids anywhere. She's offered to take them swimming at her boyfriend's apartment. Since she thinks I'm narrow minded and not really in tune with how Americans view her lifestyle, I would like to ask anyone out there how they view her lifestyle and if they would be comfortable letting her take their kids anywhere.

When you tell your wife your too tired for sex is that the real reason? My thinks I'm full of bs, but after a long work day all I want is a beer and some good sleep.

I am 20 and have had my own house since I was 18. I have not asked my parents for money since I turned 18. I haven't even spoken to my mother in 6 months (she and my father are divorced). Before Christmas 2006, my dad had a stroke and had to have surgery. He couldn't work for a while after that, and as a result lost his house. He came to stay with me in January of 2007. He has not had a job since the stroke. I am paying all his bills as well as my own and buying all his food and perscriptions. He has no income. He is 56, so it's not like he can take just any job. He had worked as a drywall installer since he was 20, and I understand he can't do that anymore. The problem is that I make less than $8 per hour at my job and things are hard money-wise. I love my dad, but I can;t do this anymore. I have 3 sisters and a brother, who all work. They are helping very little to none. I feel like that because my dad has 5 kids, I shouldn't be the only one to have to pay up. I love my dad, though.

Marriage has been on my mind.I want to ask my gf to marry me.But!, we are not financially able too.I make just enough for myself and so does she.This has been a factor for me and her father.Are we able to financial stay together?Can we take care of bills and life's neccessities?Are we able to live comfortable?
Her father asked me, "What are you able to do to provide for my daughter the security and financial comfortability?"

I do think about our future and well being.Having thoughts for the future does not cut it though.
Her father wants me to be able to provide right after we get married.Time frame...soon after marriage.I do have plans but it'll take a longer time.It seems like I need something now...and just being able to take care of ourselves does not cut it.For him atleast...am I being naive?

I also pondered on the thought if we can both take care of ourselves...can't we get married and live together.

So I want to ask poeple out there...what does it take to be married?

I am a college student working on my Physician Assistant degree and planning on go to medical school(become a doctor). My parents have ask me to get marry over the past 2 years in which it was not successful. This time they actually force me to get marry before I finished my physician assistant degree. Personally, I would like to get marry after I finished my medical school, but they completely disagree....because they believe when I am 28, there would be no more good girls around.....tell me what should I do....

Today, as I was coming home from work, I heard my name being called, it was my ex-fiance that I haven't seen in 2 years. She cheated on me with a friend of mine from college, I loved her so much and she broke my heart. Surprisingly, when I looked over at her I was astounded to see that she was EXTREMELY PREGNANT!! She told me that the relationship just ended with him and he left her 8 months pregnant, she was so happy to see me and wanted to do dinner, I am single at the moment just out of a long distance relationship , Does it hurt to do dinner?

i have been divorced for 5 yrs and have custody of my son 50% of the time.Zak will call me everyday(sometimes 4-5 times) that i'm gone and ask when will i be home,that he misses me ect then wants me to stay on the phone with him and listen to tv/music with him.The only way i can get him off the phone is to promise to call him back in a few hours.Now when his mom(my ex) goes away he NEVER does this to her i have to tell him to call her and say hi.I do take him with me sometimes but can't take him everytime.Now my gf thinks my ex is putting Zak up to this to ruin our vacations(possible as my ex is still bitter about our divorce and hates my gf)My sister just thinks hes a "poor child of divorce".that misses not having his dad 100%.

Here's a little background: A woman in her 50s who is losing her apartment, her husband was deported, and has two teenagers, who just get into trouble, wants to know the birthdays of her family (mom, dad, brother, and sisters, who are all over 40). What kind of paperwork can she possibly fill out with their information? (Not happening to me, but to a close friend.)

My father is no more and I am with my mother. She is now 60 years old and still very strong. Sometimes, even stronger than me. Sure I will take care of her and I think, even my kids would love to do this thing because she has been a very good mother and grandmother. I have no plans of turning her over to an institution when she is already too old and weak. What about you?

Don't flag me down because i really need people's advice.

Yesterday, when I came home at like 3am because of a party, I found out that me and my big brother was home alone because my parents were at another party. When I went to my room, minding my own business, my brother just came in on me and started kissing me! It was so disgusting because he was doing it on my lips (he's 1 yr older than me, so he's 19)! I tried pushing him away but then he spends his time lifting weights so he shoved me to my bed and started grinding himself on me, sitll kissing me and stripping me.

The next thing I knew, he was doing it. His face was red so I think he was drunk and also because he didn't say one word.

What do I do? My parents are going to China for a funeral of some friend of theirs that I dunno.

I kissed a guy today who wasn't my husband. I'm not talking about a peck on the cheek but a long drawn out french kiss. It meant nothing but it just felt right at the moment. Is it cheating and should I tell my husband about it?

And you're already married, love your job, and do not want to leave it to end the affair with your co-worker? Youve tried finding another job and tried repeatedly to end the affair, both unsuccessfully. Probably because you love both. And your co-worker loves you back, the people you work for are extremely happy with you and your work. You have built a respected relationship with your company for many years, and built a loving relationship with your co-worker for a few years.

You realize that both you and your co-worker are more and more frustrated because of the secret feelings that you have for ea other. You also realize that you cannot go on like this; it is not fair to your spouse (whom you have more of a friendship with) and it is starting to affect your work performance.

You have to work daily with this co-worker; you dont have a choice in your position. Because you must support your family, you cannot leave this good paying job without another lined up. What would you do?
