Basicaly my wife deserted me a year ago and my life turned into a living nightmare. We were only married for a few months. For two months i tried to convince her to come back, but she was acting like a spoiled brat all the time. The more time went by, the more things got worse. She stopped answering my calls, refused meeting me, blamed me for what happened, her phone turned busy all the time every night etc. Then she asked for divorce, she charged me with domestic violence, her parents filed a police report about me threatening to kill them and he brother filed another report about me threatening him a gun point. I couldnt believe what was going on, and couldnt handle it on my own, so i picked up drinking and lost my job, my savings, crashed my car etc. A year went by and after several court hearings, her father told my lawyer that they don't want to divorce anymore, and they rather have her come back to me. Point is, if she divorces she gets nothing cause she deserted me and i might even be entitled to compensation. But if i choose to divorce, i gotta pay her. Now, wanting her to come back into my life after the massive damage and loses incured sounds like a tasteless joke, obviously they want me to initiate divorce. What should i do ? This family is obviously scamming me and after my money from day one. If i let her in my life again, and have kids, it will be double the trouble...

I've been with my boyfriend for 4 years and I've been unhappy for a while now. I tried to make it work for so long because 1.. I wanted to prove to my overly strict and judgmental mother that I could have this long lasting relationship that turns into marriage. She's never liked him ever since she found out he has 3 kids by two different women. She also doesn't like the fact he lives with his grandmother at 35. He is going back to school right now and working part time as he says he want to make a better life for us. Also the other reason I've stayed with him for so long is because I didn't want to give up, I didn't wanna be a statistic. I wanted to show that love can persevere through everything. He was so controlling in the beginning of our relationship as far as not wanting me to wear certain stuff that might show skin, got upset when I confided in my old boss with my anxiety I was going through but he's also a psychologist, doesn't think I should drive because he thinks I'm going to kill myself, he tried to finger me to make sure I wasn't cheating. He said it basically shouldn't even feel like even a hole is down there because we aren't having sex so if my v feels loose he said he will know. And while I was at work I had to cover someone else's class so I didn't have a break so he thought I was lying about that. There's so much more that happened in the course of our relationship but that's all I'll say for now. And I think I'm just becoming numb at this point oh another reason i've stayed with him so long is because he seemed like the only man to geuniely care about me and not be so focused on sex. he never pressured me for sex and he was always faithful towards me, never cheated or strayed. however there was a point in a relationship where we were fighting every single day and we couldn't spend one day together without fighting. i met this other guy who is a complete breathe of fresh air. he doesn't have kids, he's funny, laid back, ambitous, has his own apartment, he's around my age i think he's like 25, he knows how to cook very well, he's well spoken, he's respectable. i've developed a friendship with him and we've been talking everyday since and we just seem to click and i find myself smiling while talking to him. my boyfriend has been more affectionate like sending me old pictures of us when we first started dating and holding my hands and initating a kiss, he normally doesn't inniate kisses,

I'm married myself and I never told my wife that I stole money from my parents. How about you?

we don't have kids so i have no reason to contact her ever again. i want her gone from my life.

Edit OK – so I went to a ball game this past weekend, with my wife… Now, the last time we went, I was eating and drinking a lot, so I spent ½ the game on line at the bathroom… And this aggravated my wife, (understandably so) as I was leaving her alone a lot and she doesn't really even like baseball… Also, the tickets were expensive, and she felt like I wasn't getting my money's worth… Which I agreed with. Now she suggested that I not drink and eat so much… But obviously, this wasn't an option… So I came up with a perfect solution, where I could eat/drink and not have to worry… So the night before, I went out and bought some Depends undergarments… Well everything was going fine and she was none the wiser, until about the 5th inning, when I was pretty much full, and started to leak and smell… but the smell wasn't really that bad, and leakage was relatively minimal. Well, she flips out… I don't get it! I only did it because she didn't like me leaving her alone! I came up with a solution! It is like she wants to have her cake and eat it too! I only came up with the plan to help her? Am I wrong here?

When I was getting married, a friend said I could wear her wedding dress if I wanted it. I felt kind of weird and didn't really know how to feel about it (she's divorced) but I thought it was nice of her to offer so I tried it on. It was a bit too small so it became a non-issue anyway. However, she didn't want it back. In fact to quote her she said I could "burn it for all she cared". So I kept it, cleaned it up a bit and sold It on eBay. Fast forward a bit and I'm feeling really Guilty for selling it. On the one hand, she didn't want it and left it at my house so I guess it became mine. On the other hand, I feel like maybe I should've just goodwill-ed it instead, or given her the money. She's never said anything- never asked what I did with it, but I still feel badly. Thoughts?

Hi so my husband wants to go to the strip club for his birthday together. Should we do it? To be honest I think I'm prettier than those girls but I guess it's just a guy fantasy

Say they been together for over 6 years and the woman wants to get married soon cause she feels like why not we been together for years. But the man doesn't plan on marriage anytime soon. Would it be wrong for the woman to feel like she's wasting her time and start looking else where?

My ex refuses to return my laptop. Currently I'm unemployed and I need my laptop in order to apply for jobs. I can still use it but only for a few hours when I go and visit once a week. I can go often but the environment is toxic. He uses for his personal use and for his work which I'm also part of his business. That's his excuse. The fact that he don't have his own laptop and don't have money to buy a new one is not my problem. I was thinking to damage "accidentally" my own laptop, because it's so unfair. So I rather do that and buy a new one with my savings then he taking advantage of me. I What should I do? Any better recommendations? Thanks in advance.

And will Mitch McConnell complain or will he comply and get a divorce?

Like women who wear the latest fashion and look trendy and wear makeup and they like expensive looking clothes and stuff? I am in my 20s and guys seem to only want to talk to women who dress like they care about status. I dress nicely but simply and dont use makeup and dont want to get status and dont look for a man who is rich or wants to be rich. I actually think that type of guy is what I don't want because i dont want a rich lifestyle.

After they pass some of you put them on a pedestal but later, sometimes years later, the truth comes rushing in about how they really were ie bad spouse, bad parent, not a nice person at all...were you angry?

I'm married for almost 40 years and had affair with a another woman for 4 years. Why is she leaving me? I'm still married to my wife and my affair is my best friend, that's what we've been but now I'm going to lose her as an affair partner but still be friends. Why is she leaving me when I didnt do anything to her? I still have my wife. Hopefully she won't leave to in that romance relationship part.

Last Saturday was my wedding. 3 days prior to my wedding I was laid off from my job. I've been miserable! I tried so hard to enjoy my wedding day and I'm trying to enjoy my honeymoon. Tomorrow is our last day here in Hawaii and all I've been thinking about was going home and having to deal with unemployment and other things now. I've cried a handful of times while on our honeymoon. I can't stop thinking about it. My husband and I have also been arguing more then ever because of how I've been acting on this trip. I'm depressed and don't want to do much. Any advice? I just want to enjoy my last 2 days of my honeymoon!

Let's say you are now 65 years old and in poor health. Your adult children are useless. Too busy with their jobs, significants others, taking vacations, going away for the weekends etc You have been friends with a younger woman for 30 years. This younger woman is ultra dependable, responsible and smart. She makes things happen fast and is willing to be of help to you. Why would you end the relationship?

Been going to karaoke with my friends. There's this guy who sits with us along with his GF of 10 years. Everyone except his GF has been noticing him looking at me when he sings but as soon as his GF looks his way he immediately starts singing/looking at her. My friends have even noticed him looking and staring my way while we are all just sitting at the table talking. He hugs all the women when he leaves and kisses their cheek and tells them to take care of themselves and to have a good evening. After his hugs and kisses me he always gives my arm a squeeze or rubs my shoulder. He doesn't do this to anybody else. What do you all think is going on?

Marriage is just a legal contract. Besides, what if your intended turns out to be horrible in bed? Divorce would be a lot of work but if you have sex with them before and don't like how they are in bed, you can simply break up with them. Waiting until you marry is impractical. Why do people do it?

A few years ago a good friend of mine, my wife and I were having a few drinks and talking about all sorts of random things and at some point in the conversation he admitted his biggest turn-on was a woman with sexy legs and feet, pedicures, painted toes etc. Since then whenever he comes over to our house to visit my wife always seems to have on a short skirt that shows off her legs and is either barefoot or wearing strappy heels that show off her feet. (My wife is 5'10, has gorgeous long legs and weekly pedicures so her legs and feet are very sexy!) It seems that even if she was wearing jeans and sneakers for example, when he arrives she has changed to a skirt and heels or no shoes at all. Or sometimes she'll cross her legs and dangle her heels from her toes. I have mentioned this to her but she says I'm being silly and it must just be a coincidence. We've been married for 15 years and I trust her completely, I just find it very odd when she does it. Could it be a coincidence or does it sound more intentional because she enjoys having her sexy legs and toes admired? Do other women enjoy showing off their pedicures? Or does she wanna cheat idk
