Family & Relationships - 8 October 2007

I was living with my boyfriend for six months. We were so happy until three months into the relationship. Then he suddenly started having some fianancial problems. He started having some bad mood swings. I went out of town for a vacation and work related conference about three weeks ago and was gone for only a week. When I returned he told me that he was having to move and needed me to get my things out. I asked him what happened and he did not make any sense and said that he might have to move out of state for another job and that the company he worked for was folding. So I moved back to my home. He is moving into a townhouse in another city 30 miles away. He took a job there just this past week. He and I got together this past weekend and everything seemed ok, and he had to leave to take care of getting his townhouse ready to move into. He kissed me when he left but later that evening when I called him, he would not answer my calls. I have not heard from him. What happened?

my boyfriend always tells me "you're beautiful/perfect/gorgeous" or that I always make him so happy. But when he says things like that I don't know what to say, because I don't take compliments well. And it makes me feel like he's just with me for looks, because I've had that type of relationshop before and it doesn't feel good :|
What's wrong with me?! Am I just afraid of another one of those relationships or am I just in a mood? lololoolll

I have been in a relationship for about a year now. Currently my girlfriend and I have been going through some problems with trust and honesty. I have destroyed a lot of her trust and honesty. How do I rebuild this?I have been trying to call her and email her fro a few days now. She oes not answer. Should I continue to try or just give her a little time to think and contact me? I am pretty confused right now. I love this girl with all my heart. She means everything to me. I am in a foreign country and without her nothing else is important to be here.

I just bought a new gutair. But Im not into the whole lessons thing. Is there any website that shows you (without having to read music) how to play a few songs? All I am asking is if any one knows a website where they show you how to play a song on your gutair without having to read the music.

Yesterday when we dropped off the children at the designated meeting spot, her car wouldn't start. She was huffing and puffing and cursing under her breath and treating him really badly....I have not spoken a word to this woman in three years other than hello. Yesterday she acused my husband of having jumper cables in the car, the second time she said this if front of the kids, i said they are in the other car...the oldest 16 told me to shut up that it was none of my business and the second oldest 14 started yelling at me because of....honestly I don't know what. Today her family gave her money to take us to court because she says that I am disruptive and a poor influence on the kids....that she is physically afraid of me. Why? I don't know In past years she has told his family that i am a drug addict...they beleived her because they at the time hadn't met me. I am going out of my mind right now. I feel I need to take legal action for slander and alienation. What would you do?

I lied to my girlfriend so that I could get out of the apartment and visit this woman. It wasn't my fault though because this woman is always flirting. She came to my house late one night and I didn't do anything with her until now. My girlfriend found
out about the whole thing last week and left me. What should I say to my girlfriend to get back with her especially since the whole thing was not my fault?

Theres this girl thats "oh my god" in love with my bf. They use to kind of talk in a more than friends way a while back but things didnt work out I'm guessing because she lives like 6hrs away from us in his hometown that he visits from time to time. We've gotten into a fight before about her because I simply asked him what was up with the two of them and he flipped saying she was just a good friend. What the F^%^ ever i KNOW he liked her at some point and i know shes madly in love with him.

Well today i went to comment him on his myspace and i saw that she left a response comment on his myspace. i know it was a response because she said stuff like she was answering some questions that he probably left on her myspace.

He says he loves me and blah blah blah but if he knows that I dont like them talking because of the history they have why would he continue talking to her. I'm not talking to any of the guys I liked and it didnt work out with, just out of respect. You know?

- I turn 18 this coming July(4th)
- I know this sounds doubtful but would I be able to just move without proper guardianship papers since I will be turning 18 soon.
- I talked to my school guidance councilor but she didn't provide much information other than vaguely recommending me to go to a court.
- 2 of my cousins did something similar, they filled out no paper work they just moved(I know this doesn't mean I can do the same)
- If I do need guardianship papers could I maybe reduce the paper work by getting temporary guardianship until I turn 18? And for that matter where do I get the paper work(town hall, courthouse, etc)
- I am moving for educational purposes for my future, and I feel my current situation in life is dwindling my academic potential. I am aware of the importance of living with your parents, although I have lived several years without them. Both my parents support my decision to leave if I feel it is right.

Thank you in advance!

7 years ago I used to live with my 8 brothers, dad and mom but things happened to the family business, so the family went apart.

When the family went apart my dad bought 6 bed rooms house for me and my brothers to live in. After 2 years me and my brothers got on but since my brother decided to get married. I was upset when he told us but I couldn’t do nothing really about it. The reason I didn’t want him to get married because I felt bad.

After he got married I met his wife and honestly I cried because I didn’t want her to live with us. The first couple of months I decided to get on with her. After about 6 months I found out she pregnant. Omg I went crazy I didn’t want even to see her face ever again but really I didn’t had chance because I haven’t seen my dad and mom for 4 years ago, so I couldn’t do any really. When she had her baby omg I felt just to kill myself really then after a year I found out that she pregnant again. I couldn’t do nothing again. After another I found out she pregnant again. OoH god I went crazy honestly I tried to kill myself. I tried to shut at her and tell her to just having unprotect sex, so that b*tch decided to tell my brother that I been violent toward her…so my brother kicked me out of the house at 12 clock in the night…I slept outside. I couldn’t believe it that my own brother kicked me out of the house. Next day I had to him £300 because I shouted at his wife and honesty I didn’t even touched her I just shouted at her and nothing else.

Since that day we haven’t spoken to each other for over 1-2 years. I have to buy my own food…..and pay for the room.

5months ago I found out she pregnant again. Now she has 4 kids and 1 on it way. I only have 5 months left and his going to kick me out of the house…Don’t know what to do?

I will never forgive her and god help me she can’t even look after kids. I really really feel sorry for her kids. I do treat respect. I take them to the shop buy for them from my own money…..

The reason his going to kick me out because he daughter going to sleep in my room…

I tried to ask for help but I don’t much people. I keep myself to myself and I try to think about my future but times I just can’t.
What should I do please help I only have 5 months left? Help pls…I don’t even know where is my dad…I haven’t seen him for over 7 years…
Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband and I got married back in February of this year. We dated for almost a year before that and have been friends for about 2 years now. Things were great until we got married. He used to be sweet and generous. He's always been a slob, but it's gotten completely out of control. He's mean to me, he's always putting me down and making me feel worthless. When I tell him how I feel, he tells me that I'm overreacting and he's not being mean to me. But it doesn't stop him from doing it again during that conversation. On top of all this, he likes to make promises to me that he has no intention of keeping. And when I mentioned that it bothered me, he told me that he makes them so I'll shut up. Another issue is that he's into things sexually that I'm not and he basically told me that sex is more important to him than me and he can't guarantee that he'll spend the rest of this life with me if I won't do what he likes. I guess I'm looking for some honest advice about what to do.

A tear jerker to start your day.
Don't know how true this is but the ending certainly is.

A Special Story

Like any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new sibling. They found out that the new baby was going be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sang to his sister in Mommy's tummy. He was building a bond of love
with his little sister before he even met her.

The pregnancy progressed normally for Karen. In time, the labor pains came. Soon it was every five minutes, every three, every minute. But serious complications arose during delivery and Karen found herself in hours of labor. Would a C-section be required?

Finally, after a long struggle, Michael's little sister was born. But she was in very serious condition. With a siren howling in the night, the ambulance rushed the infant to the neonatal intensive care unit at Mary's Hospital, Knoxville, Tennessee.

The days inched by. The little girl got worse. The pediatrician had to tell the parents there is very little hope. Be prepared for the worst.

Karen and her husband contacted a local cemetery about a burial plot. They had fixed up a special room in their house for their new baby but now they found themselves having to plan for a funeral.

Michael, however, kept begging his parents to let him see his sister. "I want to sing to her", he kept saying.
Week two in intensive care looked as if a funeral would come before the week was over. Michael kept nagging about singing to his sister, but kids are never allowed in Intensive Care. Karen decided to take Michael whether they liked it or not. If he didn't see his sister right then, he may never see her alive.

She dressed him in an oversized scrub suit and marched him into ICU. He looked like a walking laundry basket. The head nurse recognized him as a child and bellowed, "Get that kid out of here now. No children are allowed." The mother rose up strong in Karen, and the usually mild-mannered lady glared steel-eyed right into the head nurse's face, her lips a firm line, "He is not leaving until he sings to his sister" she stated. He gazed at the tiny infant losing the battle to live. After a moment, he began to sing. In the pure-hearted voice of a 3-year-old, Michael sang:


"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray."

Instantly the baby girl seemed to respond. The pulses rate began to calm down and become steady.

"Keep on singing, Michael," encouraged Karen with tears in her eyes. "You never know, dear, how much I love you, please don't take my sunshine away."

As Michael sang to his sister, the baby's ragged, strained breathing became as smooth as a kitten's purr.

"Keep on singing, sweetheart."

"The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping, I dreamed I held you in my arms".

Michael's little sister began to relax as rest, healing rest, seemed to
sweep over her.

"Keep on singing, Michael." Tears had now conquered the face of the boss
head nurse. Karen glowed. "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. Please don't take my sunshine away..."

The next, day...the very next day...the little girl was well enough to go home.

Woman's Day Magazine called it The Miracle of a Brother's Song.

The medical staff just called it a miracle. Karen called it a miracle of God's love.

NEVER GIVE UP ON THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE. LOVE IS SO INCREDIBLY POWERFUL.

Life is good. Have a Wonderful Week!

my sister is nearly 15, and she's gone to 2nd with her boyf of 2 months who i really hate (2nd=touching 'down ther').

i saw an incriminting message saying she had on her fone, and confronted her. she denied it and simply said they were saying it to impress their friends (a lot of these girls are complete s*ags..). i believed her, butthen i found some more messages. Agaun, when i asked her she said she hadn't, but admitted that they had rubbed together with their clothes on. however, my brother later looked again at her messages and found quite a few that showed she had, and also lots calling me an ****ing *****, etc, etc. i confronted her YET AGAIN, and she's finally come to her senses, now she's been crying, begging me not to tell our Mom, etc, etc. I don't know what to do- tell and risk losing her forever, or keep it inside and let her go more and more off the rails and ruin her life and all of ours, getting pregnant at 16 probably!


Please help- fast!

Id like to consider him my friend, but i dont want him to disrespect me. I've tried telling him that he needs to be respectul but he just brushes me off, hes even threatend to shoot me (idt he was serius) and recently he would not let me past him cuz he wanted to 'talk' so in a rage, trying to get past him i got mad and bit him.....whoops. but everytime somthing happens hell tell me im not fit to be living, or im a low life etc. then hell come back and be like "Rachel! why arent you talking to me!?" Now im trying to avoid him. How can I pound it into his head that if he wants to hang with me hes gotta be a gentleman?

I'm not very attractive... i'll admit that right now. i've had a girlfriend when i was 14 and it lasted for two years but then she cheated on me and broke up with me for a much better looking guy. i havn't gotten any female attention since that. i have one friend that is a girl but she has a bf and he is my best friend so i wouldn't EVER ask her out. any other girl i ask out (there's only been two... i get so nervous and i'm shy) says no. What should i do?

I cheated almost 2 years ago when I was at college. When I left the school, I cut off all contact with the other guy and haven't cheated since. I'm not going to anymore but I just want to know if this is something he should know, or should I just keep it to myself and let the constant guilt be my punishment. My boyfriend is the man I want to marry someday, and I don't want to let a stupid mistake ruin my entire life.
