Family & Relationships - 22 October 2007

I have been talkin 2 my new boyfriend 4 two 1/2 months now. But when I first met him he told me he just got out of a 7yrs relationship. The first thing came 2 my mind is that no way is he over this girl. But he told me they r. They have not been together 4 1yr now. But I think they r still hooking up or something because they are always talking 2 each other on myspace, I know this 4 a fact because I read his message she post up, then I turn around and read her message he posted up. And the message always talk about 4 instance 2 day they was talking about mondays 1/2 dk somewhere and she knew he had 2 many and said we r goin 2 have 2 do this again. How would she know that if they don't see each other. Kind of strange. But she never call his phone and he never call her phone i always check 2 make sure. I just don't feel comfortable that he is through talkin 2 her. But it could b me I can just be over my self thinking something is goin on. I need help. Some type of solution....

So in a joking manner i drew him a picture of his name and gave it to him (cheesey i know, but he liked it!) he smiled and actually seemed to like it. But now i dont know what to do to get his attention. any flirting ideas?

Well I am gay and noone knows it. I constantly think of my best friend, who is very hot! We stay the night together and watch movies together. I am always depressed if he doesn't talk to me that much. However, he is STRAIGHT =[

I'm very scared to tell him about my sexuality. I know he will still be my friend, but I don't know about me staying the night with him and stuff like that anymore which would hurt me really bad.

Also, do you guys think I can talk to a counselor about this?

thanks for your time =]

I'm a married 20 year old, & I have good reason. My stepdad was very abusive & I couldn't stay in college as an independent unless I was married. My husband is a wonderful guy, but I've been told that I may be in another abusive situation & that he's mentally abusive. He can get mean & he gets angry @ me over little things. Today, he got mad @ me because I was sick & missed an exam & I forgot to email my teacher. He has 2 sit out of college a year because he failed some classes. He has no right to get mad @ me for that. Also, he gets really angry if I talk to my grandma. He asks me why I talk to my family if they let my stepdad be abusive to me. I love my husband more than anything. Just the other day we went out 2 a movie & then came home & had pizza & it was fun. But it seems like we go out when He wants 2. He mostly stays here & plays computer games. I'm the one supporting us mostly. I love my husband and i dont want 2 talk bad about him, but are my friends right? What should I do?

I'm 22 and 8 weeks pregnant with my first child by my boyfriend. He has two children from a previous marriage. When he found out I was pregnant he was livid. (It wasn't planned, I was on birth control for a reason.) He almost convinced me to have an abortion but I couldn't do it. Since we found out he has not been supportive at all and has acted very cold and distant from me. So, I told him that since he has no interest in this child whatsoever that I was offering him a deal: I will move out and when the baby is born I will send him papers to terminate his parental rights. He can forget all about me and he can move on with his life and he won't have any responsibility. I want this baby, so I'll raise it. I'm not going to ask for child supprt. I don't my baby feeling like an obligation nor do I want this baby to feel resented because his/her Father didn't want it. My Father thinks I've lost my mind that I should force him to be responsible, What do you think?

Now who sounds like the bad person. My mother and I havent been getting along for awhile. When she was with her previous boyfriend, she took care of his son. So all four of us lived together. I stayed away because my mom seemed to care about them more than me. My mom's bf hit her one day. I called the cops and he left. The next day i found out she was still going to take care of his son, who hardly bothered to even say hi to me at times when we lived together, and I said i was leaving. I left to live with a family member and my mom told me that his son was only there. Later after I found out that the bf and his son were there. I was angry and my mom and I haven't got along since. They moved out just b4 school started, and my mom kept delaying when I was able to come home. I came home the day b4 school started and they are out of the house. Now thats its my mother and I, Im often here alone, there barely any food in the house, and everytime we argue she threatens to make me leave.

"What are you looking at?"I asked in my best flirty voice.
"What are you looking at?"He replied in a flirty voice.I huffed like I was mad,and turned around.On the inside,though,I felt like I was going to explode.That had not just happened.Okay,just keep your cool.No one will notice,and at lunch,you can talk to Rachel and Molly about it.Right now,focuss on math.MATH...MATH...MATH,,,MATH!But Andrew`s adorable eyes kept popping up in my head.I drifted into an unknown world.I awoke to the substitute shaking me.
"Did you have a good dream?"she asked.
"Huh?"I asked and rubbed my eyes.I noticed everyone was staring at me.
"You`ve been asleep for half an hour.At recess,you can make-up the time,"she replied shortly.I groaned silently to myself.I started singing Hannah Montana`s "Best of Both Worlds".
"you get the limo out front..."
I was cut off by the lunch bell.As you can guess,I was first out the door.

I have this bff that is having a halloween party. She wants me to come but I don't know if I want to. She's invited people I barely hang out and hardly know. Not to mention that all of them are popular! Or most of them, anyway. There is only 1 other girl that is going and she's funny but part of the "in" crowd? What do I do?

The HIV virus does not seem to be a natural virus. It seems to be a man made retrovirus. If so, who could've possibly invented it? The HIV pandemic is less than 37 years old, which leads me to theorize that it was not naturally created, but possibly created by some kind of mad scientist or sick psycho. I would appreciate your help and your answers. Thank you.

My husband works 12 hour shifts 5 p.m. - 5 a.m. Monday night thru Friday night. I work during the day. I have nothing to do when he is at work. We can't have kids, and my only hobby - the only thing I'm really good at - is cooking. What fun is that if there's nobody around to taste it? I just want some ideas of something to do besides sitting on my rear in front of the TV.

I have alot of circumstantial evidence that that highly suggests he cheated on me. Ofcourse I have asked him and even confronted him with the evidence and he had a million dollar answer to my questions. I have called her and tried everything to get her to tell me....just flat out asking, damn near begging and pleading with her, I've been nice and not so nice. They are both sticking to their answers that nothing happened. MAYBE thats true, but with the evidence that I found, I highly doubt it. The evidence is: secret phone calls to her from his business cell phone (the bill dont come to my house, goes to his employer, I found out by viewing his bill online) he deletes the call history of them two calling each other, when I asked him if he ever called her, he lied and said, no, just emails, ofcourse he didnt know that I knew he did. So i just let him lie to me. So, he aint gonna tell, too much to loose, but how do I get to her, to get her to tell me?

I'm a junior in college, I live 3 hours away from my hometown. Friends from my high school are scattered throughout the country. Mom and Dad don't call me as much to talk. Have a boyfriend of 1.5 years. Im so attached to him because he's the only thing I have here. I depend on him for my social needs. He lives 25 minutes away from his hometown. I feel like if I lost him Id lose everything. I have a few close friends, and I'm involved in clubs. But I think since he's the only person I'm truly "close" to, I depend on him too much. My parents do love me, but they don't call me very often, they come and visit once in a while, and when I call they always like to hear from me. Is that just part of growing up and moving on? I feel like they don't really "know" me anymore. I feel like my boyfriend is the only person who truly knows me. I feel like because of this it's caused me to become too dependent on him, and I know something HAS to change. Im too paranoid in relationships. Help?

I am getting married in June in a beautiful, old-fashioned chapel with red carpeting and pews. The reception is outdoors behind a white mansion. I am trying to decide what colors would be best for the wedding. I do not want red bridesmaid dresses (I'll probably choose light blue). I either want to incorporate the red into my wedding colors or make sure the wedding colors do not clash with red. Here are my ideas:

1. Light blue and white (maybe silver or gold accents) -- bouquets would be monochromatic mixed blues
2. Light blue and deep red (bouquets would be red roses with white accent flowers and light blue ribbon)
3. English garden theme -- Light blue with wildflower bouquets (blue, purple, yellow, white, and pink)

What do you think of the above ideas? Or do you have any other beautiful suggestions? Thanks!

I think it is.

My sister got divorced last year, and is probably going to get married to another guy she met 6 months ago (her 3rd marriage).

She had big ceremonies for her first 2 weddings (10 years ago, and 4 years ago). I don't think it's appropriate for someone to invite a whole bunch of people for yet another wedding -- especially when most of us have to fly across the country again to go. I actually think it's selfish, since it's very expensive to fly out for several days. I spent well over $1000 dollars flying out to her last wedding in New York City (I'm in Los Angeles) in 2003 with the airfare, food, hotel etc, which I couldn't really afford.

The problem is that people will feel uncomfortable not going, or going, it's sort of a lose-lose situation. I think having a big ceremony for your 3rd wedding is sort of a joke, and disrespectful.

I think for your 3rd wedding it should be the bride, the groom, and a minister or judge, and that's pretty much it. Any thoughts?

My husband and i have been married for more than 8 years and we have no kids. In the first few years of our marriage, we tried very hard to have kids but we have no luck. There was a lot of disappointment and pressure from the family to handle. In the last couple years, we didn't talk much about kids, tried not to give ourselves too much pressure. My husband is now 44 and I'm 36, we now decided not to have any kids coz we feel that it is a little too late. We're planning early retirement and don't want to work till we're in the 70's too see our kids graduate from college. My mother in law came over for dinner the other night and she asked me if we're going to have any kids or not. I told her we decided not to and told her the reason. I know she is disappointed and upset, but i guess i need to tell her the truth.

I am a 19 year old boy. I am worried. Soap actress Hunter Tylo lost her son last week on Oct. 18 when he accidentally drowned in her pool. He was just a 19 year old boy.
(1988 - 2007). http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21419015

I also hear on the news, and quite occasionally in fact of teenage kids dying. I am quite scared and worried. I thought most people live around 65 years.
I am so scared I am next.
