I didn't. I asked my partner to marry me and he said "Yes, but let's wait 6 months to make sure before we tell anyone." I said, sure. What's 6 months really? Turned out fine. I think when a woman asks a man it's less pressure because women are not obligated to by expensive rings and beg (on one knee). I think the traditional proposal is too much pressure for women because it's not true that every woman is dreaming about marriage. In fact, a lot of women these days don't even want it. Perhaps women should start asking men for marriage more often.

The only reason for this tradition that I can think of occured when women were dependent on men and needed them to survive, so instead of chasing men for their oh so 'natural' provider skills (haha!), men had to ask women or it was demeaning. Not so much now that we know that women are natural providers and our society is reverting back to such behavoir.

I've been having a sexual relationship with a friend, but we have talked about how neither of us need or want emotional commitment -just physical connection. We have only slept together once and its one of the first type of experiences like that for me w/ just a friend. What I don't understand is why he isn't just screwing me then getting over with it, instead he will kiss my hand and tell me how nice it is and hold me afterwards. I just really don't understand I always thought that if you weren't in a serious relationship -and just had sex- men would just have SEX and keep it not so cuddlely. Are the rest of you dudes like that? =] seriously..you confuse me. Let me know.

Being an actor and voice over, I usually have good answers to most common questions, but what do YOU say if your girlfriend's parents asked "sooo what are your intentions with my daughter?" that one gets me stuck.

I moved to NY and my ex is in LA,I won't be moving back to LA until April.The reason he is my ex is because, well we weren't ready to be in a relationship, and long distance relationships don't work anyway.Since we aren't together dating other people is an issue we try not to get into because we both believe if your not with someone they are free to live how they want (crazy I know, but please do not judge us.)Anyway, we talk on the phone everyday for hours at a time.Nothing has changed since I came out here last month, we still love each other and have hopes of being in a relationship ONE DAY. We are still young, 21, and don't want to rush into anything and do anything we'll regret. So we are taking it slow.The problem is though, even though we may be dating others.The pain of being so far runs deep. I miss him so much that it hurts.I know that in life there's no guarantees and us getting back together is no exception. I refuse to lose hope, Am I crazy for having faith in us?

I know this girl who is the gf of my fiancee's best friend. She is going through such a hard time right now & I have seen what depression can do to a person. I want to help her or just let her vent but I just don't know how without being pushy. I'm not the best at making friends. Any suggestions?

Im wondering how can I approach them without having that awkardness of having to put urself out there. I want to approach them just as a friend and let the girl decide from there. If anyone has any tips please help! Thanks

About a month ago, my I found emails from my husband to another woman. I asked him he came forward. He had meet up with the woman about four times and they talked through email. I saw this as cheating... Even though they both say noting happen. Yes, they did talk about getting together. I was a faithful wife.... I was like at my husbands feet doing anything he wanted and never would I have guess my husband would have cheated. I thought our relationship was fine not in danger.... So my question is how can this happen? Dont he love me? How can I tell if he wants our relationship?

Cheating or Money? Which has a greater ground for divorce.
Someone I know let her husband loss all her saving.. 200,000 on 1 stock. Do you think it's forgivable?

How soon after your relationship begins should you introduce your new love to your family? He and I are in our 50s, and live hours away from my family.

My parents have somehow been married for 22 years now and according to my dad, it's pretty much been down the hole ever since my sister and I were born. My mom has many...issues such as OCD and anger problems as well as the whole "blamer" thing going on and is always supicious of my father. My dad also has a very bad temper which doesn't help as well as depression (from what he claims got it because of my mom). They always fight over the stupid things, and it's each and every day they do it, forgive each other, and then do it again. They've been in marriage therapy for a few years and it doesn't help at all. I almost wish they would get divorced so I wouldn't have to deal with it. Even if I talk to them about this, they'll just say "ok" but will get angry the next day. I'm an adult now, but I don't know what to do.
