I told my bf i loved him. Not sure if it took him by surprise but he said "those are strong words". We discussed it and both agree that we have strong feelings for each other. But after the discussion - he said let's have a cooling off period.

No clue - what that means - and why we need it but that's what he wants. What do I do? Guys - what's going though his mind.

We've been divorced for 2 yrs now. I live about 5 hrs away. He only pays $200 a month for child support and thinks this is too much acutally he feels he dosen't need to pay ANY! I love my daughter and wishes things were different. I can't change him but I want to change this situation. He never calls her. I make the effort to have him in her life. I really think he can't move on and uses our daughter out of angry towards me. I need legal advice or help to move on. I'm afraid of him because he's tried to take her away from. Two separate times where I was suppose to pick her up and he didn't want to give her back to me. I had to call the cops. I read my daughter books at night, ballet and swimming lessons. I try my best to a good mom and even though her dad is the best I try to make an effort but in the end results he just gets mads and its a bad cycle . I need it to stop. Helpful advice. Legal advice. Please! thank you

Okay so there this guy who always looks at me and smiles he is shy around me but some of my friends say he like that until you start a conversion then he won't stop talking. The other day i was talking about aother boy to my friend in front of him and he looked jealous. ( but i was talking about him) he might of thought i was talking about someone else. So Last week i found out that he just started a relationship with another girl. So do you think i did bad do you think he still likes me a little at least?

If you tell a guy that you like him, and you say that u would prob regret telling him this, and then he says prob not, and then u say why and all he says is i have my reasons, life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you'll get! What does this mean??

I told him this a few days ago after he asked me.. now at school its rly ackward, we never talk anymore, and were in 2 of the same classes, and sometimes when i look up hes looking at me. Does this mean hes interested in me? or 2 scared 2 do anything? or what?

this girl i've had a crush on for a long time broke up with her boyfriend who was a complete jerk to her. they were going to get married, but something happened, and he really doesn't like her. we know each other and he found out i like her and he was begging me for two days to go out with her so she would stop bothering her. he would call her stuff like physco and stuff behind her back. so me and the girl went out, then we break up because of what he did to her, and she wasn't ready for a relationship. then when she needed a ride from school, which i didn't have a class that day, i said i would pick her up. she said later that she didn't need a ride because her ex would pick her up. she was smiling when she said this. then i said i thought they hated each other and she said she never said that. now they are getting back together and i still really like her. my question is how the hell could she go back to him after all that?

p.s.- she doesn't know about the stuff he said to me

I haven't had a date in a while and haven't had that many dates ever, and I'm 24 which is just too embarrassing to come to terms with. I'm really good at some parts of it, I'm good at approaching women anywhere, and get their numbers but it usually rarely goes beyond that and it's hard not to feel a sense of desperation when you hit a dry streak. I recently wanted a job really badly and now i have that and i feel like my social life is well in place, so there's not much else to think about but my romantic failures. For example, there's this girl who I met months ago in a sports bar who I hit it off with and we exchanged #s. She's really friendly and once after that i felt like the way she approached me after that there was a spark. I go to school on different campus than her so haven't seen her since. Problem is I sometimes IM her and except for one time, she doesn't respond, and i know i have to play it cool, but i wish i could let her know what i'm about beyond just saying hi on IM

...treat women a little better than the other guys or the opposite? My father was an alcoholic and was beating my mother, I think that's why my brother is VERY polite and understanding against women.

How about other guys who grew up in a troubled home? Just curious...

If a guy that you like but you don't know him that well cuz he is a junior and you are a freshmen does this stuff below...what does it mean??
1.) Stares at you in the mornings.
2.) Glances at you when you think you are not looking but your friends are.
3.) Everytime you pass him in the hallways, he looks directly at you and your eyes meet.

He does 1 and 2 at least every other day and he does 3 EVERYTIME I walk past him. And sometimes he will glance back in my direction at lunch. My friends all think he is interested in me but are these enough signs?

By the way he has a GF from a diff town so i don't think he is interested in me and he hasn't came up and talked to me yet...is he waiting for me? I don't want to do anything cuz maybe i am just thinking too much into these "signs"...so i don't want to embarass myself BUT my friends all see the same things i see...so idk...what do you think??

My boyfriends ex wife told him in July (before we met) that she would buy him a very expensive game system that he had been wanting for Christmas ($500). I told him that I would not like it if he accepted it and to tell her no. I dont think it is ok for him to accept something from her that I cant afford to get him. Am I wrong?

I really want to get something special for my boyfriend for Christmas but i do not kow what, he's really into games but he has all the systems. I do not know what games he has or what accesories he needs and cannot just straight up ask, i have NO way of finding out before tues! Anyway I was going to get him a PS3 but people have been saying 2 games systems (x360 and wii) are enough, which is probably true.

Anyway I do not know what to get him please what are some good and creative ideas, I want something quality but no more than $600 to $700 dollars.

My husband and I are currently living with his parents, and I am having huge problems with my mother-in-law. Before my husband and I got married, I adored his mother and thought she would make a wonderful mother-in-law, but as soon as we decided we were going to get married, everything changed and she became the mother-in-law from hell. It started off with her trying to dictate every aspect of our wedding, but I won't go into detail about that or the multitude of other problems I've had with her because this will just end up being way too long. Instead, I'm going to ask for advice on a few of the most recent problems I have been experiencing with her. Before I do though, I think it's important to note my husband is an only child, and what I consider to be a momma's boy. Anyway, I'm 5'2'' and have always been skinny, around 100 lbs most of the life, but as with most people's weight, it fluctuates. My mother-in-law would constantly tell me how skinny I was and that I needed to gain some weight. I didn't really have a problem with my weight because I've always been petite and had a hard time gaining weight, but I wouldn't have minded gaining some because I felt I would look better if I did. Just recently, I managed to gain 10 lbs, so I now weigh 110 lbs, and now ALL I hear from my mother-in-law, every SINGLE time I see her (no exaggeration) is how much weight I have gained, and now, according to her, I have a ''belly'' and maybe I should go to the gym and work out because apparentely now I weigh too much. (I should mention she weighs a lot more than I do, and is overweight for her height) I'm so sick of being criticized by her! It's like I'm never good enough. Before I gained the weight I was too skinny and unhealthy looking, and now I weigh too much! There is no pleasing her. I honestly had no issue with gaining the weight, people have commented on how much better I look now, including my husband, but with her constant criticism I have developed somewhat of a complex about it. What really gets to me is the fact that when she makes these comments in front of my husband, he says nothing! He makes absolutely no attempt to defend me or tell her he thinks I look a lot better now. It's really hurtful and I feel so vulnerable when she makes mean remarks about the way I look because I'm too polite and respectful towards her to say anything back in my defense. I really wish my husband would get a backbone and say something to her. Whenever I make comments to him about her rude remarks, he just tells me I look good the way I am and don't need to lose any weight whatsoever. Why can't he tell his mother that? I really feel it's his place to say something. Another issue for her, is the paleness of my skin! I'm very pale and she constantly tells me I need to get a tan. I actually used to tan in tanning beds all the time, until I realized just how bad for your skin it actually is, so I stopped. I don't want to end up all leathery and wrinkled. And besides, my husband PREFERS pale skin so I don't need to tan to appease him anyway. My mother-in-law goes to extreme lengths, telling other people in the family to talk my husband into ''letting me tan'' first of all, my husband and I don't control one another, if I wanted to tan I would, but I don't want to destroy my skin or end up with skin cancer as a result of tanning, and I'm just lucky my husband happens to prefer pale skin over tanned. I just don't know how to approach this issue either. In this case, my husband does tell her he likes my skin the colour it is, but she still persists! It's none of her business and I wish she would realize that and stop interfering. This is getting pretty long, so I'm just going to ask advice for one final problem, even though I could go on for days. The other day, I had just got out of the shower and I was getting ready so we could go out. I was running behind so to save a little time I asked my husband if he would bring me a drink, and he agreed. When he returned with my drink, he sort of laughed to himself and said ''my mom said you need to start getting your own stuff, she said she always see's me getting drinks and things for you and you need to start getting it yourself'' First of all, it's none of her business what my husband and I do for each other! I don't interfere with what she and her husband do for each other, or anyother aspect of their relationship for that matter, so what gives her the right? Second of all, he doesn't get everything for me, I get things for myself most of the time even though I feel uncomfortable doing so since it's not my own home, and I also bring him things when he asks me to, so it's not like I'm lazy or that this is all one-sided, I simply asked him to bring me a drink because I was running late and didn't want to take extra time to do that, it's not like he was doing anything. It was this simple, little thing and she turned it into a huge issue. Usually I wouldn't have said anything in response to her comment he relayed to me, but this time I just exploded on my husband and said, ''I don't think that's any of her business! No one has the right to interfere in our relationship. What we do for each other is between us.'' He just kept quiet and didn't say anything, so I didn't talk to him again for several hours. She's constantly causing problems in our relationship and I just can't take it anymore. Please don't advise me to sit down with my mother-in-law and talk about how I'm feeling because there is no talking to this woman. She is impossible and I know for certain it would be a waste of time and just cause more problems and friction since I live with her. I'd be more inclined to say something and stand up for myself if we didn't live with her because I wouldn't be so worried about causing annimosity between us. And please don't advise my husband and I to move out because it simply isn't an option at this time. Believe me, if it was, we would be gone already. Please give any words of advice you may have on how to deal with this situation in regard to my mother-in-law and my husband, and anything else you feel may be helpful. Any words of advice/support will be highly appreciated. I hope these problems don't seem completely pety, they're just intensified for me because I have been dealing with her constant controlling, condescending, rude, patronizing ways for a year now. There have been many more major problems than this in my relationship with her, such as her trying to force me to convert to her religion, but I just picked a recent few that I don't know how to deal with. I'm losing my mind and I'm getting to the point where I'm just going to explode if I don't figure out how to handle this. Thanks!

My mother in law has been a source of trouble for my husband, his father and brothers his entire life. She has always been nice to me until now, when I called her out on something. My sister in law had the same trouble with her a year ago. (she called her out on something too) My Mother in law volunteered to help babysit if we needed her and when we needed her she threw a fit (as a 49 year old woman) Grrr. She has health issues but not bad enough to not babysit. My husband and father in law said she is better than she used to be. This makes me nervous for our future, as soon as I can afford a babysitter I am going to because she seems unstable. My husband and I are both starting new jobs and needed help with getting our daughter watched. I just needed to vent.. Any Advice? Words of wisdom?

am of lineage that includes nobility and royalty. I want a woman who is not a peasant and also has good ancestry so I can have a son who inherits the good genes and carries on the bloodline. But it is awkward to ask women about their ancestry. I believe most of the females I know of are peasants and have no noble ancestry to speak of.

It's not like I would really care about the woman. All I care about is keeping my bloodline going. After I have a son, I could care less if she got cancer and died, for example. I would favor my son more than the woman.

She is so unreasonable, I just put on my white gloves and ran them on the top of the door and they showed some dust on the fingertips, I casually mentioned that perhaps she could prioritise cleaning over cooking ( as she admits that if it cannot be deep fried its not worth cooking ) but would she listen no! I need a way of apologising that will not comprimise my ethics, basically I am not sorry, if she spent less time watching 60 minute makeover and took out a duster more than 4 times a week I would be much happier
