Question We live in Michigan and my boyfriend is paying child support to his ex now I was wondering does that fact that he has a new family to support (mind the kids arent his) and a household to run and he pays about 1/4 of his check in support every week would it be reduced or changed because of this factor? And also If she remarried 10 yrs ago and claims thier daugther one her new husbands taxes does his income count when they are figuring out the income of the parents to set the child support payments?

This is going to be a long one. First, there is just so much background to how my mother and I's realtionship has gotten to be the way it is. Ill give you major highlights. She lost cusdoity of me and my sister about 7 or 8 years ago. I am currently 13. When she lost she became an alcholic and got a crazy physco boyfriend who treated us very badly and constantly was screaming at us. Little by Little I grew to honestly hate her even more. Now, she is struggling badly when it comes to money and she is very hard to get along with. SHe is constantly yelling at the kids for little things and I am sure they are getting to feel the way I did 5 years ago. The situation today is that she was trying to relieve some stress and thought we would all go out and do something nice. I had no idea we were going and was did not shower yet today. I told her I needed to take a shower and from that point on anything I said to her she would yell at me and call me a snobby brat. Honestly I dread coming ....

HI i was talking to a girl im interested in (im 19) and she said the following things in response to the cocky/confident/arrogant things i said to her on aim:
"**** you ahole" (sarcasticly when i told her shes dumb in a roundabout way"
"you love it" (when we spoke of how a really slutty girl likes me)
"haaa your so funny. Just too funny for me" (sarcasm, but maybe busting my balls cuz i made fun of her)
The finally something that worries me, and something that makes me happy: When she said there was a fight at her school, i said i was sorry i missed it and she needed training, and she said "well i wouldnt be getting it from you" now the thing is she knows that i do judo, so she might be bustin my balls, or she might be giving me a sign that shes not interested in me? FINALLY, the good thing. She asked if another attractive girl was working at the workplace we worked at together (possible jealousy). Thanks for your input!

What if a woman knows a man, but only very little via a common social activity and she isn't sure if he is interested but has had positive vibes, but has not seen the man for several months (but will definintely see him at future social events). also when asked him to join in for a social visit with friends but told twice he would Definitely have if not for prior plans with friends). there has been some neutral vague communication online.. How can I tell him I'm interested when I'm ready without freaking him out. I myself need to see him again first and gauge him .. what should I do before I miss the boat, but not rush things because I don't want to freak myself out by rushing things. I sent a generically friendly email to say hi recently but only talked about the common activity in the email (where hundreds of other people participate on a regular basis). He has a very warm personality and he gave me the warmest hug of my life when I saw him in the spring

I find it hard to forgive my dad. He has never been there for me, and I'm 15. Ever since I was born, he's been in and out of jail, promising to do better, yet he never does. He smokes crack and drinks alcohol, spending more on that stuff, than he ever will on me. He would rather get high than see his daughter.

I used to stick up for him when I was younger, saying that there was nothing wrong with him. I would cry & cry because of what everyone said about him. Now, I don't want anything to do with him. I tell him that I forgive him and I love him, yet I have so much anger and hurt inside of me, and I can't love someone whom I don't even know. I think what he has done to me makes me cautious about the boys I hang around.

No one understands how much pain I go through every day. I try to stay strong, but it seems impossible. How can I heal from this, because this is going to destroy me?! I tried talking about it to people, but they never understand. My mom doesn’t care, my grandma is actually friends with him, and I only have two friends. I don’t feel comfortable talking about it with them.

The school I work at teaches abstinence under the state law. Very little is focused on safe sex, except what the teachers include on their own will.

Your opinions?

My mom is engadged and me and her fiance are finally starting to hang out. He treats me like a baby! He pinches my cheeks and calls me embarassing nick names and he is always telling me that I am sooo cute! The other day my mom was at work and he was at my apartment and I was going to my friend's house and he said I couldn't walk even though it was just two buildings down, he HAD to drive me. I recently had a birthday and he got me theese stuffed animals and a gift card to Toys "R" Us, I'm 15! Sometimes he'll try to feed me and I can't wear mini-skirts or cut off tanks around him or he'll make me change. HELP! My mom is starting to baby me too. What should I do?

we live in illinois and I am worried about my future now i work as a full time attorney and make 100 thousand a year but now half of that goes to this girl who hasn't worked a day in her life since we've been together and only went to school to do nothing with it, I WENT TO LAW SCHOOL FOR 8 YEARS

i really feel like my wife is getting way too much from me how is this even possible I worked my whole life to only have my hard work split with someone who hasn't earned it...

is society going to tolerate this forever or start making things more equal for work and non-work?

50 percent of future income for 5 years plus half of my liftetime pension doesn't strike me as equality and leans a lot towards the wife non-worker

life is not fair and maybe i cannot change things for me but future generation im warning you

especially you guys out there DO NOT GET MARRIED never it will be the end of your life 50 percent of marriages end in divorce now and look what happened to me.

It's driving me nuts!! all my friends are nice people but ofcourse sometimes we drink a few beers and go to hookah bars and dance for fun.
But! here's the thing, my boyfriend does not smoke or drink and he never wants to hang out when im with my friends or go to hookah bars or lounges (he claims he got nothing to do there because he doesnt dance well) And most of the time i end up being in the middle of three couples and one or two single guys bothering me, i want my boyfriend to be there when i go to those places but just the thought of smoking or drinking gets him really angry (his father passed away from those habits and he swore to him he wouldnt do any of that) he hates being around my friends even more now because he already knows they smoke and drink and he does not respect them. Plus! i am half russian and all my friends are russian and he is irish so sometimes my friends start talking russian, its a habit and he feels uncomfortable. And they got nothing in common

We have an eight year old child together, and I'm a police officer, so is my husband, well he basically wants me to quit the force because he wants to be the provider in our household, and wants me to watch our daughter, and stay home, i guess because he fears I might get hurt on the job, or something, but I love my job, should I just stay home, even when i know i won't be happy.

do you think cheating is acceptable in LONG TERM marriages rather than being just boyfriend and girlfriend.

and cheating can consist of whatever you think it consist of. long term marriage would be about 18 years. and tell wheather your a man or women over 18 or a girl or boy under 18 .. im doing this survey for an english project in school.

Just found out that my bf used to c*m inside his ex just because she was on the pills. Well, we never use any birth control during sex. It's bad, but oh well. Anyway, I feel like I have to take pills now because I hate the thought that he cummed inside her but not to me. I don't know. I just feel like he had deeper connection with her because of that. Now, I feel that I'm obligated to take pills to pleasure him more. Help me understand that I shouldn't feel this way. I want to feel that it's not a big deal. He told me though that I don't have to do that and it has nothing to do with how much he loves me. He said he loves me more and that he would never obligate me to take pills. Then I told him I want to so he c*m inside me because I feel like he wanted kids with his ex but not with me. Then he said he never thought about that. He said he wants kids but not right now. He said I shouldn't worry about it. He said the only thing he wants from is to love him.

I'm starting a business of video slideshows for weddings, anniversaries, things like that, and I'm just curious what people think. I'm a graphic designer for a major tv station in Chicago and I think this would be a fun thing to do on the side. I have some examples at www.kmi-design.com if you are curious.
