Marriage & Divorce - 17 August 2007

I bought an Xbox 360 yesterday and my family thinks it's okay for everyone to play it. The problem is - I take good care of my video game consoles but I really don't trust anyone else in my family using my Xbox 360. How do I tell them I don't want them playing it?

how do i not get so annoyed at my husband? we have been married since june 2nd this year and he is really aggrivating the hell out of me. he used to like to do things together but now all he wants to do is sit on the couch or in the bed to watch tv. its okay to do that now and then but when i want to go do something with him he blows the hell up and dont want to do it because he dont want to get up and away from the tv. i am only 26 years old and h is 27, all i want to do is live life, go have fun before we have kids. am i in the wrong for being aggrivated? he used to like to go to the bars for a beer or two then be done now he wont even do that, much less go to the movies or walk around at the mall. he really is getting on my nerves is that wrong as well?!?! very very confused i am lol..

I mean, singlemoms get to call their ex's a "package" and that's far worse. That ex will never go away as he is the father of their children! That's why they gotta still be "friends" for the kids. So you mean to tell me she can call all THAT a package and I can't call a simple girl I'm dating or living with a "package"?! I don't get it? Will one of you divorcees explain this to a single guy?

I am 29 years old, I have 5 children ranging from 6 months to 8 years. I stay home with them every day. My husband works to support our family. I take care of all the household chores, with the exception of asking hubby to occasionally change a diaper, fill the dog water bowl or take out the kitchen trash. However we now have had a huge disagreement that is threatening to our marriage. I feel he should mow the lawn, where as he thinks I should add it to my chores, at least part of the time. I tried to explain that breastfeeding the baby, and caring for my other responsibilites makes that impossible for me, but he won't listen. Am I wrong to simply expect him to do this? I have also suggested that we hire someone. He won't have that either.What now??

I just posted a question about me having a girlfriend living with me that I don't get along with ... and y'all basically flamed me. So long story short you expect that a guy will have ZERO baggage or relationships and miraculously be rich and completely stable all at the same time as you happen to enter his life. On the flip side, you expect that this same guy will be more than willing to take on all your sh*t - EX HUSBAND, KIDS, maybe even ex-boyfriends you are still "friends with". Sure seems to me like we have a double standard in good ol' Jewmerica once again.

I have no money of my own except social security check of $750.00 pm. Husband has control of all other income in his name. Bought a $150,000 fishing camp without my knowledge in his name. He pays the bills for our home but I have to buy any cleaning supplies or food that I would like. We do not sleep together and barely communicate except for generalities. e.g. it's hot today!! LOL The reason I am still with him is MONEY. If I would leave I think I would be a bag lady. I have 3 children and 7 grandchildren whom I dearly love and who love me. That is a plus in my old age. I am happy when he is gone to his camp, but no money to do anything.
Does anyone know what my options might be?

If you've been married a year and half and feel like you don't exist, all you do is meet the needs of your partner, cater to them - cook, clean, work, take care of 5 kids (not all mine - step kids)...I feel completely alone. Yes I've talked to him, asked for us to go to counseling, asked him to help around the house, but nothing gets to him - not sure he cares...

I feel dumb asking this question, but I really need to hear the views of others about this.
About every other week my husband gets into fits of rage then days of being really nice. The span between his fits of rage and niceness seem to be getting shorter and shorter.
In his last fit of rage (4 days ago) he insulted me and my mom and punched the door leaving a hole in the door. He said he was moving out by today, but he has not left. He is now back in his "niceness" cycle. He is trying to act nice and is acting like he didn't do anything. He talks about our future and how I will always belong to him.
He says he is mad because I look down on him because I have a better job than him. He calls my family friends and tells them he pays all the bills even though I pay 90% of our bills because he can not keep down a job. My family thinks he will harm me if I don't leave this relationship, but I don't know why I'm staying after everything?

Do you think it is fair that a non-working spouse should receive half of the fortune when in a divorce? Example: Michael Jordan having to give up his home, property, and other assets topping close to 150 million dollars. Along with child support & ALIMONY! I feel that the one who was clearly not the bread winner isn't entitled to half. I feel she owes him something for not having to work for the past 15 some odd years and being able to live the life of luxury. In all fairness she does deserve a few million (enough to live off of).

One boy and one girl. Our son was born 2 years ago and the daughter is hers from another marriage. Since my son was born we have had our ups and downs as most couples do but they never seem to go away. All the talking in the world dosn't solve any issue either one of us has. Over time our fights have gotten worse, physical and sometimes in front of the kids. We both agree this is not the way to handle it and have told each other it wont happen anymore. But it keeps going on, every month or month and a half we are back on the fighting train this cycle never stops. Now i am the one that needs to leave but we split our bills down the middle. Money is tight, cause of a lot of fights, if I keep handing my money over to her for bills and I need to leave this marriage how can I? When do I stop worrying about her and worry about me if we both agree the marriage is done and I have to go when can I start supporting myself. I am lost and don't know what to do.

I have been scanning Yahoo answers for weeks now in search of answers to help handle an emotional/physical affair that began between a long time friend and I. I have about 25 questions that I asked, that came with 1-50 answers sometimes. Many...many were very judgemental about it, some were angry about it, some gave some very heartfelt and real life advice. Some gave some nasty answers, people who were never affected by an affair anywhere in thier life. So I have had a lot of soul searching going on. I am now seeing a therapist to help sort out the feelings that led me into this. Yet I can't help wondering...through it all...all the pain, and anger and guilt within myself...for getting involved in this...I can't help feeling that some people are 'Just Born for Love'. And they get married, because they do love someone and yet they don't know when and how and with who and why they need stop with someone else. Thier hearts are just too big. Just my thoughts.

Further to my Ist Q i have been having this virtual relationship with a single guy on the net for 2 yrs now n i lied to him that im single coz it started with a lark and later i discovered how much i really enjoy conversing with him. Anywayz he has grown to love me a lot and thou he dates other women and tells me about it , he is growing fonder of me by day. Im unable to come clean with him and overridden with guilt from both sides , coz im also being dishonest with my husband who is unaware of this . But somehow despite knowing all the right things to do , im unable to break this connection and daily i spent hours on the net laughing and chatting with him. How do I get out of this ? My relationship with my husband is ok-ok , on a emotional /intellectual/humorous level i click more with my net pal. We dont cyber but do declare our fondness for eachother on chat regularly. Somehow i cannot imagine life without this stimulating exchange daily . Has any1 suffered a similar dilemma ?

I undersand you can fall in love more than once... then I wonder, what is the point?

Is it just to enjoy the illusion of the moment that everything is good and fine, with your special someone beside you? Then when its over, you move on and keep looking for that special moment again?

What is the POINT! Why do we have this desire for love when it ultimatly ends in tears?

I have been living with a very nice guy for a few years. He is my -friend-. He drives me ape ****, I don't love him.

My mom adores him, thinks he's the nicest guy ever and is constantly whining that he needs to make "an honest woman" out of me. Its almost getting to the point that I want to completely cut off communication with her. I've also considered lying to her, saying I have a girlfriend.

I want nothing to do with any kind of relationships (I'm 26 and have always been like this). If I married him, I'd be even more miserable than I am right now.

How can I get through to her that I don't want to get married without lying to her?

This Q? is coming from my 6 yr old son, believe it or not. Today we spend a lil time with his father (my ex hubby) and as soon as we arrived home, my son stated "Mommy, I want to be a News Reporter....I want to know "Why........" so here I am postin his Q? It's a way of showin him that even though he is not a News Reporter at this time, his Q? can still be read & answered by millions! I believe he asked this Q? because his lil mind still does not comprehend that two people can still have feelings for one another, be good to one another & yet live separate lives as I and my ex hubby do! Please if you decide to answer this Q? do it using words that a young child can comprehend....I am plannin of readin the answers to him :) thx

husband how I felt he told me that hes mom changed since she got married to another man, his step- father and that all she does is listen to him, and never care about him anymore! since my daughter was born they havent give her a thing! and she's her first grand daughter, then his step fathers son lives there with his GF there so fake,my mother in law talkingabout me with the gf




I can not believe how they're, they always want to come between this marriage, they think that Im the bad person, cause whenever is the weekend and I dont feel like going to there house they think that I control him, but the truth is that my husband never wants to go there if Iam not ther with him, He loves me more then anything and I do too, she. The sep father has son and my mother in law is always talking to him so nice and to his Gf too, she treat him better then my husband and she talks to her more then me! everytime I go there I go thinking that things will be better, Im always nice to them, but they just dont want to open up
with me! now I dont even want to see them anynmore, only my mother in law cause I believe she has the right to see her grand dauhgter but the other people I dont care! Do you think I should see them, after them not giving my dauhter a thing?
