im 27 and Just started talking to this man I met through a mutual friend. i'm very interested in him. He's a buisness type of man. he has his own everything. great personality, funny, laid back, his own car, a very nice house, multiple buisnesses, and he is attractive and dresses nice. I work at target. Live at home with my parents and don't have my license. I've always been afraid to drive. I'm afraid to tell him The truth because I don't want him to look down on me. My entire life people have looked down on me for not driving. and I noticed it was hard to obtain a quality man by just being myself. I figured I can attract a better quality man by acting like i had it altogether. I've seen it beforeThose super attractive buisness minded men wouldn't want someone who cant drive. they would see me as pathetic. my ex had 4 kids and two baby mamas and lived with his grandmother/ but that wasnt the worst part. the worst part was that he was CONTROLLING and EMOTIONALLY ABUSIVE so i'm trying a new approach to see if this helps with getting quality men. what do yall think?? I figured that by the time We get in a relationship I would be able to obtain my own place or a car so he would probably never figure out I lied.

My friend and her BF have been together for 4 years, but she says: - he always make her drive 1 hour to see him - he is physically abusive but never admits - he persuaded her parents when she broke up with him - her parents blame her for disliking him - he doesn't take care of her when she's sick - he blames her for becoming too independent - he calculates whatever he buy her - he tells her she will forever be dependent of her parents (but she has a job now)

So a married friend of mine took some pictures of me and of us... last week I randomly found out he erased them from his phone... I'm not sure why he did but I'm thinking the wife??? Honestly they were totally innocent pictures... why would he erase them?

They feel since she has hurt him I am wrong to have any association with her and need to block her and her family on Facebook. They are angry I am going to the funeral Saturday for her father. It is the grandfather of my cousins and we went when my aunt's ex-husband's mother died and we barely knew that woman and that ex was 100 times worse then this one. This person we knew well. Aunt and Uncle just divorced a year ago so the hatred for the aunt (she was married to my Mom;s brother so is the non-blood one) is still huge. I think both were very toxic alcoholics in the marriage so I do not fault either one for the divorce or fault both.

We have been married almost two years and we just got back together three months ago after being seperated for six months. Children is something we never really discussed before marriage until now. I already have a three year old child from a previous relationship which makes matters tougher. I am 24 years old and haven't had the time to become financially stable or start a career. My husband is disabled on SSI and isn't financially stable either. I am struggling with my child I already have. I don't feel comfortable having a child with my husband because I don't see him being father material he's irresponsible and self-centered. I can't see our relationship lasting long term down the line because he flirts with other women online and constantly lies to me. I'm afraid he won't stick around and cheat in the future. I don't know if I can trust him and don't want to make the mistake of being a single mother again.

It feel as if no one take me seriously on account of I always seem to have sauces on my face. Sauces in the morning, sauces in the evening. I even get sauces all over my face during nap time for crying out loud! I'm just tired of everytime I look in the mirror I have mustard on the face and it really bugs with the self-esteem.

So me and my husband have been together for 5 years, we have 3 children together, a set of twins age two and a 1 month old. So as you can imagine life is pretty hectic, but lately my husband and I have fallen so out of love I am honestly starting to regret getting married. I miss my old life of being able to go out with my friends whenever I want, be who I want and sleep with who I want. I just feel so stressed out all the time and honestly I know it's only a matter of time before I end up cheating in our marriage. I know I want to leave him, but would it be worth it to at last resort ask him about opening our marriage? I don't think it will be worth it because I already know he has a negative stance on threesomes so I couldn't imagine him wanting to open our marriage. I am so depressed!

My husband asked to watch porn while having sex, we have been married for four months. I for some reason found this so sad that I was honestly very disappointed. I told him and he apologized, I spoke to him and told him how it made me feel, we then got in a fight. This fight then turned into me nagging and he said i was naggy wife. I told him how it didn't make me feel valued and I worried that there were bigger problems. I then told him I would like him to be more intentional, like hug more, maybe surprise me, maybe flowers, maybe help out around the house more. He said he was not that type of guy and I shouldve thought about this before I married him. I just need advice on how to be a better wife.

To be honest with you I do not want to get married at all. I am not interested in getting married but do not get me wrong I do want to have a everlasting relationship. But I do not want to wait for marriage in order to have sex. Yes there are a lot of times where I have thought about having sex with just any woman. But I don't nowadays you can catch STD's,HIV AIDS. Even though I know this has nothing to do with this topic I truly and sincerely do want to experience a *******. From what I have seen it looks like it feels really really really good. What is your opinion and what do you think about this? And yes I am a Christian

I can't stand myself. It sounds weird but I feel like I'm a really annoying person and I just don't like anything myself/the person I've become. I honestly can't understand how anyone can put up with me. I continually make the same mistakes OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. I don't really feel like I can change. It's almost like I've given up on changing. I realize I should prob seek professional help but was wondering if people actually DO change/has anyone had any luck with changing their lives? Thanks

My ex husband & I were very amicable at one time. We both agreed to joint custody. For the first few years, everything was going well. He regularly had our child in his home & we both equally contributed to our son's necessities. After my ex remarried, things changed dramatically. My son is no longer allowed in their home, because his wife does not like him. He now goes MONTHS without calling or seeing our son. When I try to tell him how much he is hurting our son, he gets angry & defensive. He is not the same person he use to be. I told him if he wasn't going to contribute the way he did in the past, he needed to start giving me some money so I could take care of our son's needs. Every great once in a while, he sends me $100-$200. I am wanting to file for primary custody & receive regular, adequate monthly child support.I would NOT do this if my ex was still co-parenting the way he used to, but financially,I cannot afford to support our son by myself & he has completely checked out in every way. He legally adopted his new wife's child, which is fine, but it angers me that he is willing to support one child, but completely abandon his own flesh & blood.I admit that makes me angry, but this truly isn't about me or how I feel.It's about our son getting the support HE deserves & not having to live on PB&J sandwiches & hot dogs 4-5 days out of the week & having to walk around in shoes that the soles are about to fall off. Do you think I have a decent chance of winning in court?

I have a very odd M. in law She keeps bothering me all the time She interferes in every single thing in m life e.g. my work !!! my style .... my husband . She feels as if she was 20 years old but she is actually so old . she wants to hang out alone with my husband , stay at clubs late and he can't say no ! she treats my husband as her husband!! she keeps criticizing my appearance and claims that i imitate her ! i can't enjoy my life as i am newly married . He tells her about so many things because she is curious ! She wants to diminish me .... she wants him to be for her only !! i'm crying every night ... I can't bear her behaviors she posts old pictures for us while she appears , more elegant to get praise
