i'm marrying a lebanese guy, and we're going to have our reception at a lebanese restaurant with lebanese food and a belly dancer! :)

anyway, my family is australian-american and they've never tried lebanese food. they're also pretty closed-minded about new foods.

what should i say to them to get them to try the new food? or is just putting it in front of them and expecting them to eat it good enough?

I can't believe it's happenning again! My husband whom I thought was perfect and very much in love with me, (which is why I married him) is now starting to sigh...take me for granted! My last boyfriend before him did the same thing after a year. I felt like a piece of furniture who only became noticeable when it was time for sex. Now my husband is the same way lately. We don't see each other all day (work) and then he comes home and sits on the computer all night. He talks to his best friend on the phone and knows all about his life, but always forgets what I tell him or barely listens when I'm talking. Yesterday I stopped my story half way through while telling it to him and he didn't even notice! He also never tries to look good for me anymore and just comes home and puts on his sweat pants. Does this mean he doesn't want me anymore, and if so, why does he bother to stay?

Because I have a broken heart and depression. I'm just afraid that no one is going to help me get through this. I feel like nobody cares about me anymore. I feel like someone doesn't care about me and just leave me here without support. I'm upset and afraid that nobody is there for me anymore. Can you actually live with a broken heart and depression without anyone help you get through this? Please be honest! I'm serious here! DON'T EVEN REPORT ON THIS! Thanks so much for answering this!

I told my husband before that it was either me or her. He was living with her but finally moved back home and moved all of his stuff out of her place. That showed me that he wanted to be home.

I know he is still talking to her and seeing her. If I tell him to stop, he will say that he isn't talking to her. What can I do to show him I want him to be with me and me only?

I am extremely introverted, so severe that my wife thinks I am sick? I personally see nothing is wrong, and attempt to socialize for my wife's benefit, which does appease her. However, given the chance, I would prefer solitude to a party any day. This is absolute opposite of every other member of my biological family who are all socialites. I do not even want to go see them half the time. Is it wrong to be this way? Should I change?

If you found out u were pregnant by a married man and it's his only child (first born) would u keep it?
He is getting a divorce. I have been seeing this man for 4 1/2 months. He is not focusing me to give the baby up. He wants the baby, but i am undecided. I’m 22 and he is 44. I was just talking to his as a fling , but I have fallen in love with him.

I'm 15 and so is my friend, his mom was cleaning his room (lucky) and she opend his drawer and found a 3 pack of condoms in there, him and his gf are talkin about havin sex but havent. Hs mom said that she was not old enough to be a grandma and that she raised him better then that and she was so mad at him. Then she ground him for a minimum of 2 week starting today. he is not a bad kid he doesnt smoke, drink, swear, or anything and how would he have kids if he was using condoms, huh?. I mean if my dad caught me with condoms he wouldnt ground me he would probably tell me i shouldnt be having sex and then go buy me more. Not take them away and ground me for tying to be safe how about if he had sex 2nite and had no condoms so he went in raw then his girl got pregnent. This is a perfect example for all you overprotective parents that being to protective can hurt. Luckily for my homeboy i got some and ill give him a few but this is wrong what do you think?

She plays mind games with my finace. She plays mind games with their children just to get to me. She has vowed to never stop trying to break us up. She will probably never change or get remarried. I have tried ignoring her and being the bigger person. Truthfully, I don't know if I should hang in there or just get out of the situation. I put up a good front so that it never gets back to her that she bothers me. But I really can't take it anymore. It is so bad that, even though it would be the hardest thing to do, I would leave him to have peace in my life.

my husband has threatened to file first so he can get the kids. My oldest does not belong to him, so I already know he can't do that. We agreed that I would stay home with the kids and he would work. I am 28 - fully capable, but lack education and a good work history.... I dont have my own money to file first and get the "upper hand" but I truly believe that the children belong with me. In short - if he files first and I have no money to file before him or fight what he is after am I just screwed? We were married for 5 years

She's 14 I know I know she's to young to be having kids but she just found out she was six weeks pregnant. Her boyfriend's mother took her to the doctor and told her she was six weeks she called me crying and asked me what to do. I'm just as confused as her. No one in our family knows but me and I don't want to tell my mama because she's going to tell her mother and she wants to tell her herself but doesn't know how. Her mother has a bad temper and we are scared that she might snap on us. Her boyfriend is on the phone crying his eyes out saying he's to young to be a daddy and that he had to step up and take care of his responsability but he's still scared for her since his mother knows already and I'm on the other end confused. Please help us out? Please someone? Tell us what to do?

I left my husband almost a year ago because he has a drinking problem. To make a very long story short,he pretty much didn't want to change for me or his daughters because he ended up finding another woman and now she is pregnant with his baby. This girl says that she doesn't want this baby and when this baby is born she is going to give it to my husband.(it is a very weird relationship) I don't want my husband to have this baby at all because he has already hurt so many lives because of his drinking. He has to drink to get through the day. My husband passes out all the time and I don't want this baby to be crying while he is passed out. I stay up at night worring about this baby because my husband can't even take care of himself,so how can he take care of a baby? I know he can't and that is why it is bothering me so much. I want to call social services if he does get this baby,is that ok? Would you do the same? I don't want him to hurt this baby,thats all.

He has been gone for less than 1 hour and he has already called me at least 4 times. I was out chasing my dog and trying to get some bills paid and the phone upstairs keeps ringing. He is on his way to work about 80 mi away. He works nites.
Tonite I am home and catching up before I return to work Monday. He and I have been in a non committed relationship for the last 6 yrs.
He says he is not committed. He says he only calls because he wants to make sure Im having a good time when I am out of town. He calls in the middle of meetings and confrences.
Last time I went out of town for 3 days, I probably got more than 20 calls from him.
Ok, so he doesnt want a committment and he told me to make my own decision about dating others, so whats with all the phone calls.
This evening, I decided to quit answering and go out.
Help me figure out if this is a head game or what?

We got engaged over a year ago. NO wedding plans because of the way he has been acting. Anyhow, he went from putting effort into making his house look good for us right before he proposed n then after proposed hebegan fixing his male friends kitchen for free for months to point I hardly saw him(thought he was gay it was so bad). Then, he bought an investment prop next door n is renting it out to a family he knows. All of a sudden, he spends all his time there n eats dinner there n doesn't ask what I am doing or invite me to eat or seem to care. (They like to drink n party alot n lately all he cares about too!). He hasn't paid any bills in a few months bc why? I don't know - he has the money, yet he put a real heater in the garage next door so they can all hang out in it n costs $60 a pop for propane??? Why isn't he paying bills n hanging out partying n eating w family next door and basically feels as if he abandoned me and his house? Is he mentally ill? What is going on?
