They have a group text and they always reply to each other on it. Lately, they have added the husbands wives and even the sisters boyfriend on it, also me. When they text, it seems to be like they are the only ones talking to each other and sometimes when I used to respond back to their texts, they would comment some mean and downgrading stuff to me. But the other sister in laws and even the boyfriend of the sisters, seem to get along fine with each other and praise each other for their daily activities, duties, and even compliment on each other. So I told my husband, what's the point of me being on that group text when they don't even talk or even respect me. Same goes for it in person. His family has been rude to me, and is somewhat jealous of me since I seem to have the better lives than any of them, since I travel a lot, am married to a military spouse and have a beautiful kid. Should I change my number or should i get out of the group text? Every time I tell my husband about it, he tells me his family is my family, but I don't even think they respect as their sister in law. Even on my birthday, which was a few days ago, no one even greeted me a happy birthday, instead they just kept praising each other once again for their other duties, and activities and share photo texts of what they are doing and their whereabouts. I don't know if it's a good idea to change my number or should I just leave it that way it is?

Its hard enough to find someone to fall in love with you when you're disabled, most people dont even think twice about being with someone that has a chronic illness.. With the cost of living it takes 2 incomes to support a small family, to just live comfortably.. When you're on disability support you're not allowed to live with anyone for over 3 months or they're required to support you financially and the disabled persons benefits are cut according to the second persons income.. so if you got married the non disabled person would be responsible for the disabled spouse financially.. who would want the burden of supporting a disabled person? I'm disabled, I feel worthless, and unloved.. I found the person I wanted to marry but he's scared to marry me or even live with me because if we did he would have to support me financially, when he doesn't make enough to barely get by himself.. I'm heartbroken because I don't want to be alone for the rest of my life but i can't work, and i live on Ontario disability support which doesn't allow me to have a spouse.. no one will continue a relationship like this.. and i don't want to be a burden on someone else.. is there any advice someone can give me?

I'm in quite a heartache right now, I've always dreamed of getting married someday and I've found the man of my dreams who has finally asked me to marry him.. I'm struggling because he's already struggling to care for himself and I'm on disability support.. in Ontario if you get married when you're disabled they cut the amount of money you get because you are no longer treated as an individual so he would now have to support me financially.. I can't work, there's no chance and I really feel guilty being a burden on someone else financially.. It really makes me feel worried, he left his ex because she didn't feel like working.. I'm scared he'll leave me if I told him aboutvthis.. we've been together for 5 years now but I haven't moved in with him, I'm scared to marry because he'll have to support me if we do.. and I think if he knew he would have to support me I'd be left single... what can I do.. I want to live with him and possibly start a family but I'll become a burden..

Wife says she wants a divorce and me to move out and nothing will change her mind. Says she is unhappy. What if she's putting all her unhappiness on me because i'm the easiest part of her life to change? She can't change her dad being dead, no matter how unhappy or depressed she is about it, she can change jobs but she would still have to have money coming in so finding another job would be too risky and could put her back in the same position, then there's me, she doesn't need me, so it's easy to peg all her unhappiness, depression, and anxiety on me then cut me out with the hope that she will be cutting out all that bad stuff in her life when she does..could that be it? She's been late for work a lot since her dad died, and that's very unlike her, if she's late or calls out one more time she's fired. She told me that and i offered to help make sure she gets up on time, normally she gets up on her own..could i be right? And if so, what can i do to make her realize why she's really unhappy and depressed. We went through this when her grandad died, not as bad though because we didn't live together and weren't married, also she is on 100 mg zoloft for over a year.. please help

my parents constantly argue. If this is what the average marriage is, I'm staying single

My ex and I are going through a divorce and custody battle my kids and I planned a trip to Japan but without his consent I cant get their passports for the trip. It is because my ex is being stubborn and very selfish about everything. And I dont know what to do. So I asked around and someone gave me an idea to go on the trip and leave the kids with him. And see that he is hurting them and not me. By being difficult. My question is will going on the trip hurt or backfire on me with the custody battle ?

Im 26 years old and my wife is 25 years old, we have a 4 year old son. So i arrived home and my wife told me to watch the kid because she was going to buy something to make the dinner. I was super tired and after playing with my son , i rest for a bit on the couch , and he climbed on top of me and he fell asleep above me, and so did i haha, we basically took a nap togehter haha. So my wife arrived(about 1 hour later) and she woke us up and said "Did my 2 litle boys sleep well?" and then she laught. Why did she call me a "litle boy"? She was just jocking? Why did she said that?

Cheated on you, smeared your name, abused you, hit you and taken away your kids for being unfit mother. You have a gun and inside your mortified house. Your ex is chased by the mob and screams for you to let him in. Will you let him in?

My wife finally gave birth to our child yesterday and I have felt sad since. I don't think I'm ready for this. I'm going to be unemployed by end of August and I'm already losing sleep (I've slept for a total of 3 hours on and off since Friday). I keep thinking about the moment when we decided to keep him and wish I could go back. I wanted to bring a child into a financially stable relationship with at least a 2 bedroom house.. Not this. I don't want to have to forfeit him to protective services because I can't afford him.. What will I do when I start at my new job restless? Am I having postpartum depression? 😢😢😢

I filed for divorce here in San Diego, CA. My wife who s been on and off working for the past 4 years-her worker s visa expired since she got her citizen application denied- is trying to put milk all that I have from me. She filed a DVTRO against me in March and I beat it (no pun intended) in April. I am in the military and filed back in April and have our first divorce hearing Oct 31st. I want to remove as much as I can of her from my life as I can by the time the divorce is finalized. She s on my phone plan and my insurance, etc. that I pay for still. What can I legally just like take her off of? I m not trying to take anything from her, as I am trying to just make her pay her own stuff and I pay mine. Is there somewhere I can refer to for this? Like a law or legal code that includes this or any stipulations?

My husband (39) is obsessed with his niece (24). She came to stay with us for a while. But now travels with him for work now. My husband says there is nothing there but I do not know. Any thought.

I think the time might be now. The background is we have been married for 7 years but for 3 things haven't been great. We just kept having arguments, I think the root cause is I am an optimist, she is a pessimist, but also she seems to resent my career, she would say something like, we don't have any money, I would say, we do, she would say you do! I encouraged her to chose her career path, which she keeps changing and saying she hates her current job ie she ditches the job she hates, goes for something that is her ideal, then hates that. We have been through therapy for 6 mths, the arguments have stopped because I don't react to her negativity and baiting. I have changed to try and fix things, she hasn't, she walks around sighing about everything, moans about my friends and family, moans and shouts at the kids and thinks it's ok. We have 2 kids, 7 and 4, what should I do?

After divorcing my cheating ex-wife a year ago, I pretty much forgot about her and started a relationship with a much prettier and younger lady. Then a week ago I get a text from the ex saying she was going to commit suicide, she really messed up being unfaithful, blah, blah, blah. I replied that I did not care in the least what she did, including offing herself, if that is what she wanted to do. Not my monkey and not my circus. Question is; am I legally liable if the ex does commit suicide if I know in advance that she was going to do it? Don't care if she does actually, I just don't want any legal drama intruding on my happy life.

so my question is does he not love me? He says he loves me but he acts weird sometimes. we have been together since I was 19. I am 27 and he's 35. He has three kids by two women. My boyfriend was like " I feel like someone with your dad's chill personality is more suited for you because I'm not chill and my anger is sometimes unstable." He has a habit of getting mad over small stuff sometimes but He can go to therapy for his mental issues. I truly feel like his heart is in the right place he just struggles mentally. I have anxiety problems so i'm not going to break up with him because of his anger. I love him and we have a lot of history and memories together and there has been a lot of hard times but I'm TRYING to make it work. I don't want to be that girl that gives up. I don't want to be a statistic. I always wanted to show everyone that love is real and we can make it work. my boyfriend was like " who i am is hard to change and i think your insecurities keep you with me and you're mostly thinking about the future we had planned more than the love". he doesn't even make sense?

I'm assuming engagement is first but then does it go straight to marriage or is there some time in between that?

We have 4 kids, 2 we had together and 2 we recently adopted as teenagers (18, 17, 16, and 13 years old). But for 14 years our sex life has been completely dead. Like completely and utterly dead. She does absolutely NOTHING to attract my affections and she CLAIMS that all I have to do is make sexual advances towards her and she'll "give it to me" but all of my efforts have been REJECTED. She was never a sexual person when I met her in 2001 when we were teens still and it was always me doing all the work and her saying playfully "not now, not here, no" but then kissing me and going along with it. Turns out she has terrible anxiety which is why she needs someone to "ravish" her (although it feels like rape to me so I stopped doing it). The thing is, she takes pills for anxiety/depression now (Prozac, which I read IS for anxiety as well, it's just not as good as Xanax) but even taking Prozac it doesn't help. She's just a prude and she values personal pleasures like movies over sexual pleasures like sex. I don't know what to do though. I've spent 18 years being faithful to her but my mental health is severely deteriorated and there's nothing she's willing to do to help me; yet it's my job to work on her mental health each and every day of my life... She owns lingerie, earrings, makeup, heels, everything she needs to attract me, but she doesn't. Even when she was skinny, she didn't try. And now she's pushing 40 and I we may never have a sex life. 2 decades of sex, gone... Side facts to help with your answer: When we WERE sexually active and I was "alpha" she would go along with anything I wanted her to do but then the kids got older and her responsibilities tripled (the result of having a "child first" mentality like she does) so no matter how "alpha" I was being she didn't acknowledge me as a "pack leader" because in her eyes a "pack leader" is the person who does the most domestic labor chores and prowess was no longer going to attract her...... I'm irritated I don't have more answers. 5 years ago this forum was swarming with people willing to help. Even the jerks like No Mercy and Swbarnes2 at least had some insight. Now the forums are empty; a barren wasteland of its former self. Clearly I'm looking for someone to tell me to NOT CHEAT but I just need to know what else to do....

I m married and in PAK and she is in Canada and recently she got separated with her two daughters. she assured me once she leave her husband will marry me but suddenly she blocked me from any where and said she may not continue this 7 yrs relationship further. Please guide me what to do as she starts abusing whenever I try to contact her from different channels.

Hey everyone (hope all is well (:) This guy is 37 a "financial advisor" divorcee with a 9 year old son, but he is in debt and just started being a roommate with his newly divorced 50 year old business partner? I am a 22 year old grad student (no debt+ have my own$). He s introduced me to his son, friends, and family.... Is this something I should let go past this 3 months period, or cut it off and why?? S/n we met modeling (apparently he has a modeling contract to get $, and I did professional pageants as just a hobby)
