and maybe try to make a party out of it? Or would that be a breach of trust? I wouldn't want to get her in trouble, but they do seem to be fairly open minded....

We've been married for nearly four years, and it seems we've already ran out of things to give each other. He's really into technology type stuff as well as music; I'm looking for something in the $100 range. We have small gifts for eachother, but I need that larger "main" present. Help!

My husband and I recently had a baby (our first). I was very nervous for the delivery but we went to prenatal classes and I figured my husband would be great support. The day came when I finally went into labor and I was completely suprised at the way my husband reacted. He basically ignored me while I was going through contractions. He would not give me his hand to hold or anything...he even fell asleep at one point and I was forced to go through contractions by myself for about an hour. Finally one of the nurses on duty noticed that he was not lending me any support so she stepped in and held my hand and talked me through contractions. Now that we have our baby and we are settled in at home I can not help but think back to that night and how alone I felt. I think about it a lot. Am I over reacting or am I right to still be upset with my husband for letting me down that night?

Ok so i'm recently engaged and I think 10 years is a reasonable time to make sure things are right with one another. My now fiance' is expressing doubts that this is a good idea. I can't see what's wrong with 10 years. I mean c'mon, give a guy a break here.

When we married, we didn't know what the heck we were doing, we were so immature and selfish. We've been together for 10 yrs, 6 married and want to replace our rings with something that means more to us. When you talk to people tho, they say that those rings reflect that time and you shouldn't replace them, that it's wrong. But to us our marriage means more now than it did back then, we've gone thru so much and love each other more now than we did when we got married. We want to get a proper set that reflects who we are today.

Our first set was a cheapie set that was under $200 and we had them stolen(hard to believe) when we moved into our home, 18 mos ago. We've replaced them with a ring but it's just a ring and this time we want something that is more classical and a little more expensive than what we did originally.

Do you personally agree with it. I'm not going to be swayed by someone here, just wondering on your viewpoints.

**PLEASE READ THE QUESTION FIRST**

No offense to all to the many successful independent women out there - no offense at all. And no offense to women who work - I TOTALLY SUPPORT BOTH GROUPS! :-)

That said, *why,* even in today's modern society, does it still end up being the man who is both expected to and does end up providing for their girlfriend/wife?

I know many girls who expect their 'man' to do all the work.

If I had a girlfriend, da*n...I'd love for the roles to be reversed!
Why should I be the one who has to work most of my life to provide for all the needs of a family?
I don't mind having a job, but why should I have to be the primary breadwinner?

People with experience, please give me some insight. My wife and i were seriously a pen signature away from a divorce. Now we are back together and trying to work on things. Keep in mind, she might of had a fling with a guy and had feelings for him, and also being intimate with her is almost impossible. Anyway, i am looking for any type of advice to make it thru these rough times, what signs to look for to see if she really wants to be back with me or not. if she really loves me or not. Bascially, anyone that has maybe been in the same situation, what signs do i look for that it will last, how to tell if things are getting better, and how to make it work. i dont want to lose her, but it seems like why did she come back if she doesnt want me, if being intimate with me is not what she wants. she always has excuses when it comes to that time. let me know...

Summary: In a (supposedly) committed relationship, living together for 4 years. Bought a house together. Planned to get married eventually. Everything is supposed to be going well...

2 years ago boyfriend started getting VERY lazy in bed. Hardly ever wants to have sex, and when he does decide he wants it, he just lays there...waits for girlfriend to do all the work. Boyfriend is "finished" really fast, girlfriend gets absolutely nothing out of it. This pattern has continued for the past 2 years with no signs of changing.

Boyfriend also, for the past 2 years, has been having phone sex every chance he gets with strange women he meets online on his cell phone, chat sites, etc. Exchanges naked pics, videos, blah, blah. Boyfriend doesn't see how this is a problem as long as he's not having sex with them.

Boyfriend would rather have phone sex with strangers than have real sex with girlfriend. Girlfriend is SUPER frustrated at this point and doesn't know what to do anymore.

I regret it until this day but at the time I loved her very much. However, we have been split up for four years now. She was married two years, she told me all I had to do was tell her that I still loved her and she wouldn’t have married the guy. I wished her well, and told her good luck. Now Im happily married and she has two kids going through a divorce. My wife is from the philippines, and my x is constantly harassing us and telling my wife she needs to go back where she came from. During the last four days I changed my cell phone number, but then the x got my landline number from the phone book (I also had it changed today). What I am wondering is, is 16 the age of consent in Mississippi and if not could she press charges on me for statutory rape from four years ago. I never raped her, and actually I was living with her and her mom helping to pay the bills. I just don’t want any trouble and this girl has gone totally psycho. I told my wife if she comes to the apartment do not go outside and immediately call 911.

My niece just got married a couple of weeks ago and then her husband found out she had some CD's he didn't like due to the lyrics and threw them out and removed the fuse on her car stereo so she can't play CD's for a month. I don't think this is fair because she just got married and didn't know that he wouldn't approve of those CD's. My niece is a really sweet girl and I just think he could have gone easier on her since she just got married, you know? My husband agrees with me too but I want to see what others think.

I WANT to be a kid actually. I hate growing up.
I know in reality I'm not a "child", but logically I am. I know that I'm a "young adult" now. But am I still a kid? Like, can I still act dumb every now & then, without making a fool out of myself? Can I still rely on my parents to help me make some of my desicions?

About four years ago, my drunken ex-girlfriend of six years almost got into a fight with another girl. I prevented the fight from happening. My ex got pissed and stabbed me with a kitchen knife in the arm and in the neck. She was too drunk to take me to the hospital and blocked the door to prevent me from yelling for help. So I called 911 and ended up with an $8,000 medical bill. I lied to the cops and stupidly got back together with her. Two years later, she clawed me ferouciously in a drunken rage and she got convicted of third degree assault, domestic violence. I feel like she deserved a more harsh penalty for what she has done to me in the past, but I never reported it.

She is no longer in my life and I am now happily married to another woman. Should I have put my ex in the slammer?

Ok i found out that his credit card was charged for 600 for someone in Europe. When i talked to him and said i think u are cheating on me he got really pissed off saying "I am not cheating on you" "you know me better then that" and got really upset. The next day he comes up to me and says he is sorry for getting so upset and that everyone here hates us. We had a friend here before we moved and just because my husband did not do something he wanted he is pissed at both of us now. He will not talk to us or get back to our emails.

Should i watch my husband closely incase he is lying to me or believe him since he is getting upset about all this and swears he did not do nothing wrong.

I also told him who ever did this and if i ever find out i will get really ticked off at them. And my husband knows i can mess him up good if he messes with me. I know he can not afford an apartments and his car payments on his salary. He has never paid a bill yet in 5 years. he has me do it? what i do

How do people stay married for so long? Without falling out of love? How do u know that person is the “one” that your suppose to spend the rest of your life with.

The previous post was an email from him, telling me how he felt. He said "faithfulness & loyalty differ from yours, monogamy has nothing to do with either; & the only reason I haven’t been completely honest in the past is b/c I wanted to keep my family together & be happy at the same time. Now, as far as the unwanted pregnancy thing & std thing; the chances of that happening are slim to none if the people involved are responsible. Further more I hate that this is the focus of are issue, but if you must I will. But this isn’t the real issue(sex) for me, but obviously it is for you so we’ll continue.My heart is with my family; period. You can’t change the way I think, you probably have to open your mind(if possible) or find a partner who thinks the way you do for this to work. Oh & I almost forgot, your love for me has absolutely nothing to do with my actions. I am me, I am strong & I don’t depend on what someone else might do when I make my decisions.I feel that I s/be abel to be me

When I see people preach about how Gay Marriage will destroy the "sanctity" of marriage, if I were in a straight relationship, I'd be really offended. For someone to say my marriage, my marriage founded on LOVE, is fragile to outside happenings is not only insulting, but demeaning.

Agree, or disagree?

My husband has a horrible temper when he is drunk...some weekends he just drinks through the entire weekend and gets angry at me if I don't give him my $$ for beer. He nitpicks & insults me, orders me around and expects me to do ALL the work, even though I have a f/t job and work more hours than him. Also he is physically abusive like yesterday he pushed me to the floor when I was holding our 1-yr old. Another time I was wrapping Christmas presents and I had scissors in my hands..he started pushing me and put his face in my face threatening me..so I pushed him to get him off of me and sliced his arm with the scissors. Now he tells everyone I tried to stab him. When he sobers up he doesn't remember clearly what happened but spins things in his head so that it's my fault. He is a wonderful father and husband when he is not drunk but it is hard to forget even on the good days, b/c he changes from Dr. Jeckyl to Mr. Hyde.. I am tense and sad all the time. I don't want to get a divorce...
