Family & Relationships - 15 September 2007

Here goes the story: two average-joes meet. Decide they should date and eventually they end up getting married! All is well because they are both HEALTHY and NORMAL people. Neither one gambles, does drugs, beats up the other, sleeps around, habitually lies, has had a sex change, or engages in any such DRAMA! In fact, they are both very mature and giving. Furthermore, John and Jane Doe are very responcible individuals. Each one has a college degree with each one having a decent income. I must EMPHASIZE that John Doe is brilliant and has a history of making accute judgement calls throughout his life. Yet, his marriage failed. If anyone out there, male or female can relate to this story, please tell me about it. PLEASE include DETAILS about what went wrong with your marriage AND why did you overlook the discrepancy until later. Especially since their engagement was 16 months long thereby giving plenty of time to iron out the wrinkles [children, finances, etc.] or so you would think.

I've been asked out with IM's and texts, and broken up with in an email. Whenever someone wants to ask me out, they always do it electronically. I have no idea why. Any thoughts?

I am a local cafe owner, and the Germans are threatening to shoot me if I don't secretly hide some valuable stolen paintings in my basement.
The Resistance is using my cafe as a safe house for shot down British airmen, and I'm also trying to keep my passionate love affairs with the cafe girls a secret from my wife.

I need help.

Our small neighborhood has five 8 year old boys that are all in 3rd grade. They have known each other since they were infants and play together all week. Up until now, all the boys were invited to every birthday party. Last week one boy, "Ben", with whom my son plays frequently, had a birthday party and didn't invite him. My son was teased on the bus by "Ben" as well as the other boys about not being invited to the party. My son is devastated. He adored "Ben" and considered him a close friend. He has no idea why he alone would be discluded.

I called "Ben's" mother to ask her if there was some problem between the boys that she had seen, and that I needed to understand the situation so that I could help my child. She told me she had let "Ben" write up his list for his party, had no input in it and had asked no question.

What do I do now? Do I still let him play with these boys? Do I invite them all to his party next month and ignore what happened? They're all he has.

My son (11) made a new friend and went to his home for the first time tonight.His parents took them out for pizza and (we live in a community where illegal imigrants are a majority) and this boys dad said those damn mexicans will always be failures.Now my son whom is biracial (father is an american born chicano and I am white) and is clearly very dark complected was offended by this mans comment, he felt that this man had some nerve to say that in front of him. I agree that this mans comment was very wrong to say no matter who was present.But I do not know if this mans comment was intended to hurt my son personally, my son did not say anything to him, but when he got home he let me know that it hurt his feelings. I guess what I want to know is this situation something I should step in on to make sure that my son is not being mistreated while in the care of this man. Or should I let it blow by, maybe he did not think it would offend my son when he said it because he is not mexican.??

Here it is: Spent most of my money with b/f's dad and him at Las Vegas. Went back to school...b/f and I both work in New Haven labs, but his dad and I got involved...long story short, he's been helping with my rent (his son (my b/f) will never know about us) but his dad's out of town and my rent was late twice...first time my landlord accepted a bribe with a late "call" for drinks and partying, but should I keep up these "lascivious" (b/f's dad's word) favors?

we went through a lot of drama last yr. & i think he's afraid of getting hurt again. if we did go out though, we'd have to keep it secret from my friends.

do you think i should ask him out if he's too shy to do it first? also, how should i do it?

thanks!

So I told this guy that I like him... I did like him but now I dont and he thinks I like him still.. If I tell him I don't like him or if I do something that may seem "rude" (like ignoring him) he will tell everyone bad things about me.. HELP! What can I tell him to show him I lost interest in him?
