Marriage & Divorce - 13 August 2007

First I will start by saying I am in a very happy marriage, I have no problem with what I am about to ask, I love my husband and I know he loves me. So here it goes.

Recently I have been getting some "comments" about my husband's parenting skills from my family. He works out of town 5 days a week and is home on weekends. He works his a** off to take care of his family. When he comes home he is exhausted from working 18 hours a day, so he is always tired. We have an 8 month old baby a 10yr old and an 8yr old. I am a stay at home mom and take care of the kids all the time. so when he is home he does not have the energy to play with the kids or to help take care of them. This being the problem with my family. they say he does not spend enough time with the kids. I understand he is tired from working and needs to come home and relax but my family thinks he should do more.

He helps out with cooking when he is here and laundry etc.. once he has had time to sleep. Is this ok?

She's had primary custody of our son and I pay court-ordered child support and have ample visitation rights. She has agreed not to contest the divorce because we both have moved on. We want this over as quickly as possible. Plus I have been living in California the past 6 yrs. We are both from the state of Ohio and we got married there. We were separated before the birth of our son, but tests have concluded the he is mine and as I said earlier, I do pay court-ordered child support and I have visitation rights. So we agreed to a quick, low-cost solution.

We tend to talk about what our exes did to screw up our marriages. That's not this question. What mistake did YOU make that you learned from and committed to NOT repeating in your next marriage?

Me, I threw the word "divorce" around way to much when we fought -- not knowing that it was perhaps a fait accompli.

I have been married to a person for 5 years.

Two years ago, I believe my spouse went
to Mexico and married an American citizen
there without divorcing me.

Can I sue both my spouse and the other person
for bigamy and claim for both legal and emotional
damage? (State of Texas)

Thank you.

I just got out of Court today regarding the Custody of my son. 5 Months ago his mom left state and left him with me because she was barred by Court Order and couldn't take him out of the state. Now she wants him back and wants to move him out of state after I filed for full custody and received temporary orders. We were referred to Mediation to work out a plan but its going to be hard to work something out since she wants him back. What should I expect in Mediation and what steps can I take to make sure my son remains with me? Is there anything I can I provide them that will help?

We have been together over 7 years and he has always been a cave man. Lately, he is more attentive. He is trying to be more nice and loving. Is something wrong with him? I know I'm not dying... LOL

I'm entering my Junior year in college, and it seems like everybody* is getting engaged. I've always thought it was better to concentrate on my career, and wait on marriage. Afterall I guess i'm still figuring out who I am/what I want out of life, and don't feel like i'm ready to even think about that.

Nonetheless, do you think it's better to wait. I think it's crazy how many of my friends are all tying the knot

My husband and I have sex every night 4-5 times a night, but everytime we have sex, theres always a mess everytime. Does that mean my husband didnt go inside me and how do you know if the penis went in correctly. We are trying to get pregnant, but we have had no success. How would you know if the penis has gone in?

I met a man about four years ago on a holiday. Over a period we both fell in love . The only problem being we belonged to different countries.
There came a point we had to separate, he obviously wasn't interested in me enough to follow it up or maybe he was just not strong enough to take on the responsibilities considering he had been divorced. This was four years ago and the weird thing is he still keeps in touch with me.
I married my husband who loves me a lot and whom I love a lot as well.If only I had met my husband before I met him my life would have been so much easier.
I have told him to stop ever keeping contacting me, that it is hard for me because I loved him, but he wouldn't and I just don't know what he wants? It is very obvious he can't forget me and I know I will not be able to forget him for a long time, I felt like we bonded and it felt like everything was right, just that he didnt want me enough to make a commitment .
I desperately want to forget him and it is just so hard for me not to be able to speak to anyone about this ,(particularly not my husband who would be heartbroken).I cannot forgive my past love for abandoning me?I just need to forget him and I have done all I can including marrying someone else, I just wish I could erase him off my mind.
Sometimes I just break down and cry because It's been so hard all these years and I guess it will get easier with time but I wish it were sooner.How do i forget erase remove him from my mind?help me.
I have broken all connections with him but obviously not emotionally. It is hard to remove a memory especially deep love.Tell me how?Thats all.

We found out our daughter is autistic this last March. Since then I've been trying to quit drinking.

The relationship between her father and I has been slowly depleting because I don't want to drink anymore.

Things between us weren't going well at all. I decided to have a few drinks and ended up getting really drunk and I cheated on him.

I have to quit drinking all together now. I made a horrible mistake that I would not have done if I weren't drinking.

He doesn't want to quit. As a matter of fact, he gets mad at the thought of it. Everything that's ever gone wrong in our relationship has happened when we were drinking. He cheated on me before and he's lost a lot of money to gambling at casinos.

I should just move out right?

My daughter needs a special diet and I can't afford to pay for alcohol anymore. He gets mad when I try to tell him these things.

I need help please! I truly made a bad mistake. He's forgiven me for it but doesn't want to stop drinking.
