Okay, my husband has been really stressed out lately and I know when I get stressed out I like to see cute things like baby animals and stuff. Well, I formed a little 'nest' on our bed with the comfortors and some blankets and it looks so precious!! I was thinking about waiting til my husband gets home and call him into the room and then I hop inside the nest in my nightgown and pretend I'm a little bird and go "chirp chirp" and then I have a couple of baby stuffed animals in there and I act like I am feeding them!!! Wouldn't that be so precious???? I think it is so cute!!!

My wife and I have been married a long time and love each other.

She recently told me that years ago she was infatuated with another man for a few years and made out with him – no sex. I almost left her at the time because I sensed something was going on. Recently, she found the need to tell me because we are close. I do love her.

It sounds nuts but I don’t mind the making out as much as the infatuation (emotional attraction) and the lies.

She says she wants to be with me til the end and feels terrible. I have given in many times and about to give in again. My emotions swing – some days it seems OK, other days I want to get even, other days I want to separate.

How do I believe her and trust her? And should I?

I know one answer is counseling – and I will go. But first, has anyone gone through this and can provide something besides get counseling.

There's a guy in a class that I am taking, and he is very shy. I don't see him talking to anyone. But I still like him. What should I do?

Just wondering. Is it the other persons business if you don't have anything to affect the relationship now, such as, STD's, is it your partners RIGHT to know how many people you have slept with or is it the past. P.S. I'm not having this problem in my life, just curious!

My husband is a drinker. I drink occasionally, but I just can't drink that often. He went from being a heavy drinker when we first got together and reduced it quite a bit. He slowly started increasing his drinking. Now he is back up to 5-6 beers a night. He wonders why this bothers me so much. No matter what I tell him, it's not a good enough answer for him to slow back down. He says he's healthy, doesn't get violent and it relieves stress, so I should just let him do it. I feel strongly about this, but I can't put it into words. Bottom line, I don't like him drinking all the time. What can I do? Should I just let him have what he wants so we stop fighting about this? Please help!

My boyfriend get anger over lots of little things and explodes into yelling and cursing at least once or twice a day. He never get violent, but he does yell at me like this and makes me cry. I don't know how to talk to him without making him even more mad. I just want him to learn to controll his anger and to express it without having to belittle and offend me.

Every time I think I'm done and ready to head out the door he tells me how much he loves me and wants to fight for our marriage. This is the only time I hear this and it makes me feel guilty for wanting to leave. We've been together for 7 years and have two kids together. I WILL NOT say together for the kids so all you people out there who think Marriage is an abomination or whatever can just save it. I am a perfect expample of parents staying together for the kids and I went through hell!

Anyway... I feel like I've been fighting for this marriage for a long time and I'm tired. Do I give him ONE more chance? He is willing to do anything and everything to make me happy. The reason(s) I want to leave him are becuase he is selfish and insulting and there is no passion in our relationship. We went 9-12 months at a time with NO sex to just name a few of our problems.

Most guys can probably relate. You're out with your beautiful wife, and another attractive woman walks by. It's like this unknown force is acting on our bodies to move our heads and look. How do you stop this! If my wife catches me doing this, I'm going to be in trouble!

It's my graduation soon & I've bought a black ladies suit & a mettalic grey shirt to go with it.I'm thinking of pairing it up with silver heels & silver jewellery, but I want to add a little more spunk to the whole outfit.To stand out a bit in the crowd of black suits.One of the main reasons for this is that the guy i like will also be there & I want to make a great impression.

What should i add more to this outfit which is simple & formal yet make him take a second look?

Thanks in advance everyone!

p.s. both of us are in the band.so something spunky would indeed create some added interest

I'm 18 years old and my boyfriend is 30. We're 12 years a part. Is 12 years older too old? I've asked a few questions on here now and I've encountered a few really mean people. If you don't have anything constructive to say please don't answer this. Don't call me names and tell me to go **** myself. Because that really isn't going to help me out. I'm really attached to my boyfriend and I love his personality and we get along really great. I'd hate to break up with him just because he's a lot older than me. But if you really put it into perspective, I'm going to college really soon and he's got a job and a kid from his first marriage. We're at different points in our lives. What should I do about this?

A friend married 2 weeks ago, & she is still complaining about the girl who "ruined" her special day. One of her guests, was pregnant & went into labor during the ceremony.(her hubby was a groomsmen & she wasn't due for a couple weeks)..Well, I was seated near her and I quietly helped her into the hall. She said that she was definatly in Labor, so I drove her to the hospital...I assured her that I would go back to the church & tell her hubby..Well when I arrived back the ceremony was just ending..taking pics & whatnot..Well I told my friends hubby that she was at the hospital & that she was having the baby...My friend (the bride) was mad because I didn't stay for the wedding...I thought it better for me to leave than a groomsman...and our other friend didn't want to interupt the ceremony more than she already had. Well now we are having a belated baby shower...and the bride is refusing to go..& telling everyone this girl ruined her day, so she is now going to ruin hers.

Why does my gf's Vagina smell, during that time of the month?
There was a wierd odor in the room and as I tracked it down it was coming out of my girlfriend's vagina and she could also smell it. Really bad smell, I almost fainted when took a deep sniff, what could be the cause for this? She say its just period related, but it is soo bad...

We had anal 4 the first time last weekend could that be the reason?

Thanks to all

When a (particular) man talks to you and constantly looks you straight in the eyes, is it a good sign (i.e. liking or possible attraction) or can it be just the way he is? When I say 'cnstantly', I mean, I have to look away as I can't take 100%. Tried to look for dilated pupils, but can't tell!

Put 20's and 30's in the title as know there are alot of teenagers on here and I wanted a more expereinced perspective, although I know most teenagers are probably more au fait with this than me!

We are both in our 40s. Last Thursday he came over to spend the night. I had an electric blanket on the bed. He said "I'm not sleeping with that blanket on the bed, I'll get electrocuted." I was offended because he didn't even try to compromise, he just gave me this ultimatum, so I said, "the blanket stays on." He said, "I'm not sleeping here if that blanket is on the bed." I said, "so come back in July". He said, "You are making this very easy." He left, in the middle of the night, and I haven't heard from him since.

We had been dating for 6 months and I thought things were going well.

It seems so juvenile I'm confused. I can't be in a relationship with someone that bosses me around and I feel that he should approach me to apologize because he's the one that gave me the ultimatum and the threat. I'm okay with it ending I'm just saying huh what?

Any insight?

About 7 months ago.. i met this guy. we started talking and now we are basically dating. the only thing is.. i am white and he is black. i really didnt think it would be as big of a deal as what it is. My mom has met him and she thinks he is a great person and so does my dad. she just refuses to let me date him.
we have been talking now for about 7 months but i dont know how to tell my mom that we are practically dating. i'm scared of what she will say or do.
he is the best thing that has happened to me and i am not gonna give him up just because my mom doesnt believe in biracial relationships.. He makes me happy and i think that is all that should matter.
i just dont knowhow to tell her that i am in love with him and i want to date him!!!
help please?!

Hubby comes in last night, first thing he says is " I talked to your buddy ____ today". (The person he talked to is NOT my buddy, in fact is HIS buddy, someone who he knows I dont like very much and who has been the central figure in past marital arguments). I told hubby that he was taking a sarcastic passive/aggresive jab at me with the comment. His response was "oh I was just being silly". SILLY? He sounded fake and used an "aww shucks" sord of tone when he said it. Opinions ?
