My mother specifically told me not to eat the leftover cake in the fridge, and I did anyway. I called her and made a big fuss about my dad eating it before I got a chance to, and she seemed fine. I am afraid that she knows I'm lying! What should I do if she confronts me about it?

Ok well I am in college and one of my previous college teachers, which she is also my friend, well her husband works with me and I am in one of his phys. ed classes. Well at first I just took the class b/c I thought that it would be fun b/c it is racquetball. It has been about 3 months now that I have been in the class and I am the only girl out of 4 ppl. Well I feel bad about it, but i kinda like her husband in a way. He always messes around w/ me and is kinda flirtacious and I have caught him looking me up and down. I am friends w/his wife and he knows it and I talk to her alot through email. I feel like there is like something there between us.. but something REALLY SMALL. I am going to change jobs and just finish out the semester but... when you kinda like someone and you "think" or "feel" like they like you back... are you usually right? I know its bad but I cant help it... what should I do?

its human nature to be protective right? i married a kind and calm man that never abuses me, and always loves me. i love him more than ever. apparently my sister can say the same. i have stated sooo many times that he's my husband and if she does anything that happens to take him away, its her head. heh, take away the serious attitude, im really insecure because my sister spends almost as much time with him as i do. at first i was ok with it, he's her new brother in law, might as well get to know one another. but i swear!! when we sleep in our bed, half the time i wake up and she's cuddling right beside him. im like WTH can't you get someone else? my husband doesn't really mind her, she doesn't really seem to bother him in anyway. but i feel like she's getting too close to MY husband and she had the NERVE to ask for a "friendly family hug" then she kisses him quickly right after saying "cmon its just a tiny kiss". im thinking about moving and just not telling her where we are. well?

I think that staying pure until marriage is a great idea, and I really WANT to stay pure until marriage. The only problem is, I don't know how to ask my parents for a purity ring. I am 13 years old, and my family is catholic. I love the Jonas Brothers, and this is where I found out about purity (promise) rings. No, I'm not just wanting to get one because they have them. I just think they are setting a good example for kids and teens and I want to follow that example. I really don't know what to say to my parents, because I already know just about everything about "The birds and the bees," but I don't know if my PARENTS know that I know everything. I think they know I know some things, but not all of it. So, I don't know what they would think. Somebody please help me by telling me what to say to them or how to bring this up!
Thanks!

My dad & step mom have gotten divorced (mom died along time ago). I do not stay with them but have been helping my dad out by picking up younger siblings from school taking them to extra murals & that,as well as sitting with homework & getting them started.

My dad has a meeting tomorrow morning & asked me to sit with them until they get back. Just wanted to know will it be wrong to take my books to study with & that while I am there. Yes its sunday & my dad has a meeting,his an advocate so its been really hectic for him lately.

The youngest sibling(step sibling),who is in grade 1,really does tend to talk quite a bit,not that I mind. but also need to study. I know they also want to swim,so I do not mind sitting out on the patio area watching them swim & study.

Any ideas?

My daughter and I just can't seem to be able to sit in a room without arguing. She's 20 and I'm 45. It's coming to the point that I'm exhausted even trying to have a relationship with her. She's disrespectful, calls me by my first name, and the only thing she wants from me is money. Any advice?

i asked a question like this recently so if you answered you dont have to now
my husband and my sister used to be really close, as in BF and GF. but me and him just got married recently and even then im still worried. she comes to our house everyday, i wouldn't tell her to leave, she's family, but they broke up years ago and now whenever she comes for breakfast, they'd always be fighting. as in really fighting! maybe he's just sipping his coffee and she'd come and make a rude comment about him and they'd fight. sometimes he'd start it, she'd be eating pasta or somthing and he'd make a "you'll get fat" joke, and they'd fight. useually its by the time our little girl goes to school, but if i turn my back on them just for ten seconds, he'd have her in a headlock and she'd be bashing him with a mug. they've also wrestled in our living room b4, now, just which way should i be worried? how can i just stop this, they both know how immature they're being but its like i have 2 more kids!!

I made the mistake of telling my ex-husband my daughter's grades for the first marking period. It was just a progress report and does not show on the transcripts.

She got 2 B's and a C in Honors Chemistry.

She is a junior in High School. She used to live with her Dad until now. He lives in another state.

Now, he is very upset and keeps calling.

I don't know what to do.

My daughter will be mad at me too....

I am a 21 year old Christian college student and so is my boyfriend. We both want to take an 8 hour drive to another city in our state to see a concert at another college. My parents are giving me grief about going on a "roadtrip" with my boyfriend but I feel I shouldn't have to ask their permission at my age. The venue is on the campus of the college and we'd be staying for three nights with my boyfriend's church friends that are a brother and sister that have an apartment together near campus. My father is very overbearing because I am the baby of the family...do you think, as Christians, I ought to go?

They can forgive the terrible things that their friends and other family members do to them but those three can't seem to get along no matter what. It makes it very hard to celebrate holidays etc together. I am beginning to feel like I don't have any daughters.

My cousin, who I am very close with, called today and asked to borrow $1500.00 I love her and she's family and family is #1 in my book, but she's never been "stable" and I probably won't get the money back. Now, mind you, I am doing quite well for myself and I have it to loan her, but something tells me she's not going to use it for the right purpose. Now what?

Not my parents, my parents are wonderful. It's a really close friend of mine's parents.

She'll be eighteen next June and is a junior in high school. I feel that she's wasted away her teen years due to her psychotic parents. Like seriously psycho.

She's never spent the night at anyone's house, she's not allowed to walk down the street--not even five houses down, she's not allowed at the mall, not allowed to ride in any of her friend's cars when the parent is even driving, when she tries to hang out with friends they try to discourage her.

Her parents aren't home most of the time, either, but she's not allowed out of her house for anything. So she wastes away on the internet day in and day out, barely allowed to come to my house every Friday--with much reluctance on her parent's part--and every time she comes over they want her home before nine.

They hate all of her friends. Even the friends that make straight A's. They don't want her having friends at all.

How can she deal?

only takes showers like once every two weeks, she is 63. When she lived with me she embarressed me by not being the most " hygenic" person to live with- she just says I'm being mean, but it is true. Any ideas on how to get her to shower more, especially if I have a man in my life they tend to notice that kind of stuff. By the way I buy her expensive soaps to get her to want to bathe more but she doesn't. I have a baby on the way I want her to be extra clean around him

Okay here is the deal. I am 26 years old and my mom still treats me like a child. She always thinks she right when shes not. Tonight she said I should apologize to her for calling her a hypocrite, but the thing is she called me lazy first. Why should apologize when I was just defending myself? I dont understand parents. I pray to God I dont end up like that! She thinks she is better than everyone.
