Oprah humors people and tells people what they want to hear instead of what they need to hear. This keeps the audience happy. Studies show happy people tend to buy more. This is why advertisers like her and give her free stuff to give to others in hopes that people watching will want to buy the same things they see on TV (So no, Oprah is not giving things out, out of her own pocket).

Celebrities like her are meant to keep the audience happy, complacent enough and clueless so that they will buy products she advertises. As long as she is making $$ for her corporate advertisers, she gets paid.
And the audience is happy.

I've been with the same boyfriend for 2 years. I LOVE him SO much, and he used to too. I just used to feel like I was the most amazing girl in the world to him. I don' feel like that anymore. He never grabs my hand, or if I try to grab his he acts like he doesn't want to hold it. Also if I'm mad at him about something, he doesn't want to talk out anymore and make it ok. Lately I feel taken for granted. He doesn't look at me the same way, and he tells me that he still loves me, but I always have to ask, or say it first. I never feel very secure with him anymore, which pushes him further away. We both are all each other has at college so I don't know if it's love or habit. I don't feel like I make him happy, and he does do sweet things like call me everyday, hug me, cook dinner with me, but it's like I still don't feel "loved." I can be too hard on him sometimes, but sometimes I fee like he doesn't truly love me, but it's just I'm so convenient. We also aren't as intimate. Suggestion?

Our 3 children have lived with me (the father) for a year and a half, and there was a child support oreder put in by my state, wisconsin, their mother lived in Az and now Oregon. She is now paying child suppot AFTER a civil warrant in Wisconsin was issued for failure to pay after a year. I have filed divorce but havent been able to serve her yet, and sfiled before but was dismissed because i couldnt serve her. Does a divorce with children have to go through the state the children live in and have an active child support case through or can it go through either state? Im just worried at this point if she files there and serves me before i can find her and serve her about losing the children to her. she has a record for drugs and theft and dissapeared from the kids for the past 6 months or so with no calls. Im just worried that theyll wind up going back to her because shes the mother. I cant afford an attorney right now (or to have the divorce papers published to serve her).

About 4 months ago, I met the love of my life. We both adore each other and have the most complete loving relationship of our lives.

About 6 weeks ago, I snooped into her email account. I don't know what possessed me to invade her privacy.

I deeply regret my actions.

Should I tell her or just let it go? How would you feel if your man did that to you?

I've been on yahoo answers too much now asking about my marital problems. I know my husband loves me, but the thing is I have fallen out of love with him. It happened a long time ago when he told me I had an "ugly face" and he knew of my low self esteem. I've since forgiven him, but my heart has been unfaithful to him ever since. I have allowed myself to look for my first love and since that didn't work out, I since fell for another man at work.

I'm afraid of divorce because what if I divorce only to find what I truly had with my husband? We don't have a lot of things in common and he's not the worse husband, but I just don't love him anymore. I care about him, just not love. I'm confused and don't know what I should do. We've been trying to have kids for a while now, but now I don't even think I want to have kids with him. I no longer see us together like that. I don't know how to approach divorce with him since it was hard enough breaking up with him when we were dating.

They all long to spend time with their father and are visibly upset because he never seems to follow through with his planned visits and is always disappointing them. They see he has time for his girl friends children but not for them and it hurts meto see them hurt, every time he lets them down.

My husband has a very short temper and shouts at me a lot. Many times in public.
For example, we might be walking down the street and I'll say something to argue with him or tell him he's wrong about something, and he'll start to shout, then he'll push the stroller (with our little girl in it) forward in rage, and storm off, leaving me by myself and the stroller.
I'm so embarassed, especially if there are other people around.

And about 10 minutes ago, he got mad at me because I was cooking and left the window open so that the smell goes away. He says it's too cold outside and he's freezing to death, and started yelling at me.
I got mad and didnt say anything to him except for a dirty look.
Then he says, "I've had it! I'm out of here". He got dressed and stormed off outside.

What should I do?

There is this girl, a sister of a friend who is very pretty. My husband in the past has mentioned how he thinks she is very pretty. No big deal. I was just on his computer and saw that he has went on her profile a number of times to look at her pictures. I asked him in a very non obvious manner, and he said he doesnt. I even said, I am glad you don't. he says ofcourse, why would i? My issue is not so much about him looking at her pictures over and over again, but that he lied about it. I say it is because he doesnt want to upset me, or whatever...but is that right? should i be worried that he keeps looking at her pictures? please help!

If so many marriages run into problems in 1, 2, 5, 10, even 20 years down the road,

if it wasn't true love, why did they get married in the first place? if it was true love, why would they experience problems?

This is quite long-winded, but kind answers only please. My husband and I have been together for 5 and a half years and married for just over a year. i guess you could say its been and up and down relationship. when i think back over the years there have been a fair few arguments and i suppose the bad times outweigh the good really. Ive thought about leaving before as im not really happy, however I cant pluck up the courage to do so. Ive been looking for alternate accommodation but when it comes down to viewing the places I cant go ahead with it. Ive spoken to family and friends who just tell me to do what i feel is right but i dont know what to do. We have no children and we rent our place, but we do share many posessions which would be difficult to sort out as I know my husband would make things difficult just to spite me if we split. I really dont know what to do. I just wondered if anybody has been through something similar.. thank you

My Boyfriend is a great dad but I feel I am not getting enough quality time with him. He has moved to the same suburb as his ex to be closer to his children & work(an hour away from me). He sees his children almost every day to pick them up from day care or visits them just to say goodnight if he doesnt see them every day he will call them which is lovely don't get me wrong, he has the children 3/4 weekends. I see him during the week but usually only for a couple of hours and in that time he is so exhausted I feel he is trying very hard to please all involved. I just feel like I am getting the "leftovers" as such. I think I might be becoming a little jealous and/or unappreciated please help!

ok people talk so much about how much "work" marriage is. i've heard lots of times people go into a divorce pretty sure its the "right" thing to do. despite it being "right" so many people still wonder if there was something that could've been done to prevent the divorce. could they have tried harder? i can understand if there is physical abuse and things like that. adultry is tricky because some people just cant get over that even from a boyfriend or girlfriend much less if it was from a spouse. i think this is geared more towards to the,"i'm tired of arguing" or "he being mean to me" so they file for divorce under irreconcilable differences. is that being a cop out? should they suck it up and make it work?
