She has been working like a dog lately. She works at a PR company. She loves her job and wants to be perfect at it. She's been helping the business growing, adding more clients. When she's not speaking with clients, she's doing research, developing strategy, recruiting more clients. Her childhood best friend also is in really bad shape with breast cancer. My wife has convinced some of her coworkers to do a race for her friend. It's a half marathon, 13 miles. This will be the first time she's done a long race so she's training for that. When she gets home, she wants to spend time with me, too. So basically she hasn't been making time to eat or sleep. I've gotten calls from her work twice this week from her fainting. And yet, they haven't sugguested she change her workload, encouraged her if anything. Her doctor told her she is too worn down for the race in two weeks. She says she still wants to do it. The doctor says if she insists on the race then she has to at least take a few days off to get some rest and once she goes back to work, she needs to start eating or sleeping or she's going to wind up in the hospital and my wife didnt tell her boss any of this.

We were both virgins, and we made a decision to wait till marriage. Anyways, yesterday after our wedding, we went to our new home. The first thing we did is we headed into our bedroom. We took eachother a clothes off and I was excited to lose my virginity to my man. I was so in the moment. When he first put it in me, it was painful. I told him to be gentle, and he was going gentle but it was still hurting like hell. He then speeded up and the more it hurt. I told him to slow down, but he wouldn't. He kept going and I was laying there crying my eyes out and trying to hold back the pain. He speeded up even faster and I screamed "stop" but he didn't stop and he kept on going. I waited for him to finish and when he did, I was so angry. My vagina has been hurting since and it feels like I can't pee. I'm still bleeding down there. I know he's a man and he has needs. He was too caught up in the moment and I understand. But is this still rape or no?

My husband and I was celebrating our two year anniversary. We also been trying to start our family. I was fertile on that night, unfortunately he became too intoxicated and I don't know if he ejaculated or not. He usually states when he's about to. This time all he did was roll over from me and passed out, and I must say it was the shortest ever. There I am, unsatisfied lol. I guess I'll just have to wait until next month :(

Most married couples I know are not happy together nowadays, and I know thousands of couples personally. Why do you think most marriages don't last in this day and age beyond a few years? There's a reason why the average marriage in the US only lasts about 8.2 years according to statistics. How do you know the couples who say they're happy are telling the truth? A couple is only going to tell you the positive things that go on in a relationship, why would they share the negative things, that's private? You only see happy pictures of couples, you never see the pictures of them fighting or upset, you can't deny that right? Have you seen pictures of couples miserable? By the way I've been single my whole life and have enjoyed every second of it

I married young. I married because we had sex and I was desperate to marry the man I had sex with. I was dumb. Now I m trapped with a man who doesn t want to talk to me, doesn t do chores, doesn t encourage me in the hard things I m doing and a man who disrespects me in bed. Not to mention hygiene issues and a number of other things. We got married in April. I knew the feelings would go, but I live in a mess! He eats pizza and watches sports all day. I have talked to him. Even tried the whole "be a slave" thing. I do all the shores, work the most hours, pay the bills and try to keep up with everything. And yeah, I blame the decision on my religious grandparents that I lived with. I hate religion now. And what do I want? Opinions. Comments. Actually no I want people to tell me how stupid I am. That is what I really want.

I've noticed that most married people feign happiness, regardless the amount of time they've been married. Or, they know that they don't have a decent spouse, but try to convince themselves that they do. However, most single people I've met are happier and living longer lives, despite no partner/spouse/kids. Why is that? They're less lonely too. How come? If they were so happy, then they wouldn't divorce so much. Also, scientifically, we never had marriage when we were evolving and many believe we're not monogamous by nature. In any case, why are most married people less happy than single people? If you believe 'studies,' then you're more naive than I expected. Studies have many flaws.

My husband and I started to discuss one of his friends that just got engaged and he came out of nowhere in the conversation he said "to be honest I would rather be single"...I was totally shocked and asked what he meant. His mood started changing and he told me that he would rather not be with me or with anyone that he would rather focus on himself. I am very upset I started to cry furiously so I asked him if we should get a divorce and he said "I don't want a divorce, who would want a divorce ?". He told me he loved me but he would rather be alone. So I asked him if I should stay away for a little while he told me that this would not change how he feels. He told me that he has been feeling this way 3 weeks now and the feelings are only getting stronger. He just went to sleep because he said he was tired but I'm up crying like a maniac. I love my husband but what do I do ? He doesn't want a divorce but I don't want to stay while he's so unhappy. We've only been married for 7 months and have been together 6 years. I also think my husband has a mental problem he has mood spurts like this but it hasn't been this bad and when he's good he admits he needs help but when he's bad he doesn't want to get any. I'm torn :(

That they will find their 'soulmate' and live happily ever after? Realistically, a good spouse is extremely rare, and you've the divorce rates to prove that. Why do so many people believe such garbage? Why not focus on building a good, long lasting relationship with your relatives and friends, cuz they are the REAL ONES who will be there for you? In most cases, people do NOT find a good partner. Many stay married for financial or personal reasons, not cuz they like their partner. Why believe in such nonsense as soulmates? Do they believe in the tooth fairy too? Why not focus on realistic goals like carer, money, travel, health, pets, hobbies, friends and family, etc?

When a man or a woman beats his other half, its easily forgiven. However when it comes to rape, its not easily forgiven. I think if someone beats his wife, he should be treated the same.

Because she just found all this gay pornography of mine, so I had to tell her that it was our son's, so now my son is grounded until he stops being gay. I tried watching straight porn but all I could do is stare at the man's penis. So I started working out, hoping that it would cure me, but then I just got gayer. Please help. I keep beating my wife but that doesn't help at all!

I found out 6 months ago that my husband cheated on me with 11 different women during our 10 year marriage. He was always distant and I suspected things but never had any proof. When I would question him about something that didn't seem right, he would tell me that I was crazy. When ever I would try and talk to him about us, when ever I felt something wasn't right, he would tell me that he loved me and everything was ok. However, before finding out it got to a point where I couldn't stand him anymore. He flirted with girls and was very sexual with them. He would only tocuh my breast or viginia. He would look at porn for 4 or more hours ever night and masterbate until he had scabes. I never felt loved by him. I sat him down told him how I felt and he decided to work on us. This was 8 months ago. Things got better. I still felt suspicious and was eventually able to find on his navagation history that he took a trip to Dallas to meet up with a girl he met playing a video game. He admitted to me. I was going to leave him, but he admitted to everything and cried and said he was sorry. (6 mo ago) Well, he admited to most everything and then told me more a month later. Since then he has cut back on porn. Started going to bed with me at night. He stopped this 1 month after we were married and then never went to sleep with me again. He's helped with the kids more and helped with the house work. I have always worked full time expect for one year that I took I have always worked full time expect for one year that I took off after my youngest was born. I have 3 under 6. He admitted to never using condoms when he cheated and some of the women are know skanks some where random strangers at strip clubs and a lot of it was while I was pregnant. He's been a better husband than he ever has (over the last 6 mo) but I don't know if I can let go of all the anger and resentment I feel.

So I'm keeping my last name after I get married. My mom kept hers, my aunts all kept theirs, it's just a normal thing in my family I guess. My boyfriend knew before he proposed that I wouldn't be changing my name, and it doesn't bother him one bit. However, I never really thought about how his family would feel. To be honest, it's such a personal decision (I mean it's MY NAME) that I never really took into account how anyone other than myself or boyfriend would feel. Anyway, soon after our engagement his mom was like "soon you'll be mrs. smith*) and that caught me off guard. I just assumed she knew, even though I completely forgot to tell anyone on his side of the family. So I said "well actually I'm going to stay with my last name", which caught her completely off guard. They are more of a conservative, traditional family; completely opposite of mine. His dad actually didn't seem to care but I could tell it ruffled his mom's feathers, along with the wives of his brothers (they all changed their last name to their husbands). So I'll be the only wife in his family with a different last name. I'm not here to debate my choice, it's been made. I just want advice on how to go about it when the subject comes up around them, trust me it'll come up again. I don't want to hurt their feelings by any means but this is not something that's up for debate either. yeah I just figured I'd cross that bridge when we come to it. It'll be many many years (much to his mom's dismay) that I'll have a baby.

My ex husband of 4 years has been contacting our son on my week and tries to make plans with him. I always respect their time together and wait till its my week to do stuff. Every time I get our son for my week, he s blowing my phone up and wanting to do this and that with him. Example.. Today he asked to take him tomorrow knowing he leaves on easter Sunday. So I was going to have easter on Saturday. Whenever I say no, its my week we ve made plans he gets extremely angry and threatens to take my son away. Nothing new, my ex husband is not a nice guy. I would just like to have my week with our son without him alway trying to make plans. Isn t that what he should be doing on HIS week? Grrr any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

we go to a cabin during winter. Cold. The wife dress sexy (underwear). Make out all day..... 3 times at least.....

So my wife finally got some feelings. Said she was waiting for me to come back from the shower. I returned not long after and she said she had little mood left...then proceeded request the porn videos to watch while I went down on her. It is like a dominance thing or something. She gets angry and starts telling me which way to go about it, starts saying my way is s***t and no feelings. I try as hard as I possibly can. Even not coming up for air. None of it gets her over the edge. Takes a solid 20 minutes for her to release. During which I cop her anger and frustration. The only problem is that it is causing a trauma response in me. I start feeling sick to the stomach and I cried today quietly during the act. I felt completely humiliated. Afterwards she was acting loving and even asked if I still wanted to try sex. Started talking about taking me gor travel and having a nice home... I am booking a counsellor asap to talk this through. I'm worried she has a mental problem. I'm worried I might be developing one too. I need to make a decision because although she is loving to me outside the bedroom, it isn't working in the bedroom and she is not making any effort to develop physical chemistry. I'm not pointing fingers and I accept my own role to plau in everything, but shouldn't she have a certain obligation to our marriage by at least trying to think about loving things? I want to hear opinions please. She was planning to have kids with me...at 33 years old, I'm having second thoughts about whether or not I have issues that are causing this. Btw, we socialise separately, spend little time together and there is more of an attitude of "you don't turn me on". I reckon everyone must be picking up on our distance. They assume we are havinh regular enjoyable sex when in fact, the feedback I'm getting is that maybe it takes longer for her to get in the mood. I think I'm a problem for not being able to turn her on. It has been more than 6 months since we made love and this year we have had sex a grand total of twice. There is no physical chemistry at all. I have told myself I'm not good enough, not loud enough, not rich enough, not really a man and I envy the men out there that can satisfy their women. So I feel weak and emasculated. In 8 years, I haven't been able to get her to orgasm after the first couple of months. Now when she decides to cooperate for sex, she lies down, puts on a video and waits for me to finish. No attraction or effort at all. I sick of feeling like I am unattractive. There is no excitement or physical chemistry. No flirtation during the day. No established routine or method unque to us. There is no basking glow of marriage. There is no comfortable feeling like we are committed to the health and wellbeing of each other. I'm at the point of throwing away the house, talk of kids and talk of a future together. There is no safe feelings with her.

It's been 8 months we are married now and we care,love and respect each other. I have always been a good listener before marriage with my friends, relatives and colleagues. I am a person who cannot carry forward a conversation but can listen for hours and so as my wife. We face hard time when it comes to conversation. Whatever I share with her she never cross question anything or never try to go into more detail so that we can go on a little bit more talking to each other and just tell me to saying anything more. Do you think anything we should do for this or it's not even a problem to worry about as long as we are happy with each other and with time it's gonna be alright ?

Husband went out of town to work for a month and a half. About 3 weeks in I went to visit we had a great trip my last day there he went to work I made the bed all was well. I came back a week later with our daughter had a great trip, we didn't stay in his room until the last night as we stayed in the city at another hotel to be closer to the sights. Anyway our last day he had to work my daughter and I were in the room she was playing on the floor and I noticed out of the corner of my eye something silver between the bed and night stand....sure enough it was a condom wrapper and a tissue....I didn't confront him for months because I didn't know what explanation he would have for it being there...I knew when I left a week earlier that I had made the bed and would have seen it there...I confronted him...he laughs it off and says that crazy he has no idea how it got there and cant even believe that I really saw it there and why I didn't confront him at that moment....I know that I saw it...Im not crazy. There is no explanation...anyway he has lied to me in the past about things talking to girls and going to strip clubs and spending hundreds of dollars...booking a hotel in a girls name just after he got back from that trip and his explantion was it was for his guy friend but he didn't have his license so he booked it in the girls name all of which I had to find out from the credit card statement....all seems like lies.

Before settling down with someone, do you want to know their sexual past?

He was in the room for a month and a half....I visited him a week before this trip and made the bed when I left and it wasn't there..he didn't switch rooms and had house cleaning in between mind you it was a wrapper and a tissue I have a hard time thinking that the maid would not have sucked that up in the vacuum and it was in plain site between the bed and the nightstand he has lied in the past about talking to women and sending pics at late hours of the night...he deletes all of his FB messages from these women and text...he does questionable things all the time if not a trusting this certainly in a respect aspect he has made me feel like I am not important also we have been married for 8 years and do not use condoms. When I tell him I cant believe his story he is angry and wants a divorce

i believe in disclosing sexual pasts with your partner. Before settling into my relationship (4years married now), we shared who we had slept with. My husband was quite open, but nonchalantly last night while talking about exercise he tells me about a woman he had forgotten whom he dated etc. a few years back. I m shocked that he just forgot a woman completely who he was intimate with. He s told me about strippers who made him orgasm. But forgot her? I m feeling quite irritated for some reason. Do people really just forget past partners?

If we are in a drive thru and she orders something special to her liking, ie no ketchup or something. Then we get the food and she finds there is ketchup she will be upset and I will offer to go back and have them fix it. She will refuse and instead sulk, "Just forget it" she might say. She may take a bite and decide its not worth enduring and doesn't eat. I will insist we get them to fix it, she will refuse "No nevermind just go, I will find something else" She is upset. So my version of trying to make things better doesnt seem to work. Should I just let her sulk while I am eating? When I do I feel like a jerk. Instead of offering to fix the problem should I show empathy?

I've been married for 5 years out of which my husband has cheated on me throughout by chatting with nasty women online and sharing naked pictures. I told myself that since it's online and they're in a different country it's ok. And I stayed cos my kids are 5 and 3. But now as I type this my husband has pretended to go to work but I found out that he's taken a day off and is definitely with another woman. My head knows I should leave this man because I have never cheated and this is affected me mentally and physically. But I'm afraid if I leave I will deprive my kids of a father. I work and earn a decent pay..but Im afraid of not giving my kids the best incase I can't afford it. My family says I should leave him and not look back because he is a serial cheater and has never shown any guilt or remorse. And I will if I know I won't be harming my kids in anyway. He loves the kids and refused to divorce me for the same. But he has never given me any love and care. Should I stay for the kids and risk going insane or just leave and start new. I'm only 34. In a sexless marriage and knowing my husband he's definitely getting it elsewhere. I would love to hear from women who have left their cheating husbands and raised their kids.

its not possible since there married

My husband through a bottleof gin at me after arguing about daycare I probabky shouldnt have argued with him but he didnt give me a chance to apologize for arguing He threw the bottle at me and it broke on the wall he told me not to leave and left 4 hours ago and hes not picking up. if he is not back in the morning should i call the police? because now i am worrying. I am 23 and he is 29 and we have 3 sons. He was nt court martaled but he was left from the military for beating me 4 years ago. 3 monts after he started hitting me again. when i was 22 he broke m nose and dislocated my arm i had to go to th hosital so he was arrested and charged and sentenced to 15 month in prison which i fought against becuase he loves our children. he was relesed after 7 months because of good behavior. when he was in jail i had a hard time with 3 children on my own. He is back living with us last month. he held me by my neck once for asking if he shld stop drinking but helet go and apologized right after. i am not sure about calling the police because he alredy spent 7 months away and we do have 3 sons who i woild feel bad about not having a father if he goes to prison again and he did not hit me. also he told me not to leave and i dont know what that is to mean or if he is coming back. I am from russia so sorry for my english and i do not have many friend here or no family. should i wait for him or what? we have plan tomorrow for church and if he is not back?i am worried what to tell our sons

My husband can't keep a job to save HIS LIFE! It's March and he's been laid off twice for the same reasons... He's having inappropriate and sexual relations with some of the female employees... I MAKE WAY MORE MONEY THAN HIM... He couldn't even match me if he tried. I run my own family daycare center from MY OWN HOME and I'm CERTIFIED and LICENSED from the state.. Let's just say I make $250 per child (I'm being generous) I'm smarter than him and while he's out cheating I pay him no attention because he's dependent on ME! I pay the bills and I feed him! At one point, I DID love him, I guess I still do because he's sleeping right beside me but I'm contemplating divorcing him. He does NOTHING for me and he can't afford me. He's embarrassing to be around. Always complaining, lying, cheating and doing nothing. He's lazy and BROKE. I'm sick of it. Tomorrow, we're going to have a long conversation , basically an INTERVENTION and if he doesn't fix himself.. I'm OUT! I dare him to catch an attitude or try to swing at me. He'll be sleeping inside a cardboard BOX! I'm not your mother.. You need to WORK and be a Man and STOP CHEATING!!! Anyways, I just wanted to hear someone else's opinion on this because my family is too judgmental to listen. Should I divorce my husband?

I have to go on a very restricted diet due to an autoimmune disorder. It's so hard because so many foods are off limits. Not just junk food but things like wheat, avocado, certain fruit, etc. I have been struggling with this and any time I eat something off-diet, I'm in pain. But I'm only human and at times, it's hard to resist. I can pretty much stay on track about 98 percent of the time, even though it's a huge commitment. Is it too much to ask my husband NOT to buy potato chips? Those are my downfall. I'm struggling to resist them, and it's about the only thing I have trouble with. Also, he's at work all day- no problem for him-- but I work from home. So they're here in the house. Calling me...

My wife is gorgeous, She has a perfect body and long brown hair and no wrinkles even though she is 49! She gets hit on by guys in college, I've seen it. We have sex regularly but the other day she said she wanted to spice up our sex life by having sex with a stranger in front of me? We have raised 3 kids so is this weird? What should I do?

He doets and excersises regularly and he takes amino acids and no steroids as far as i know. He goes to the gym daily. He seems to be obsessed which is ok because ots new and hes feeling better about himself. Whats not ok is i cannot speak to him abo

He has many days where hes running around and playing with toys and today he just wanted to be in his crib and watch tv only getting out to eat. He has no fever and no other signs of beong sick. Is that normal?

He is seriously pissing me off, he thinks I'm a bad housekeeper( not that he does any better), he claims he cooks sometimes...he has only ever drained the noodles and put on sauce while I did everything else!. He loves to drink and complain about everything I don't do well or don't do right . His mom never had a job that's all shebdid. He sucks in bed too. 'm sick of his whining! I wish I'd never have been married. I don't bother him about stupid non issues he loves to ***** over every little thing. If I didn't have a child with him I'd be long gone. FML. Can I train him to shut the hell up? Sorry about the mistakes, Im so mad right now.

It is uncharacteristic for my husband to overreact or get worked up. Like, it doesn t happen. He is the quiet, crying type. Well, I was suspicious of his afternoon activities today, and when I saw him when I got home, he could see something was wrong, he immediately got defensive (before any accusations were made, which actually no accusations were mentioned at all, because he was too busy getting mad at my false accusations?) He seriously got afraid. He says its because he "knows what i was thinking" and he knows how serious this is, what it would mean if he was lying. But its so unlike him to get so upset. And now he has flipped it on me and is accusing me of dishonesty/disloyalty, which is absurd and so not true. So is he lying? Because that s all it feels like, but i recognize that it could be his fear of losing us. It just doesn t make sense for him and his personality to get so worked up. Also, he has lied before. About the same thing I think he did today. He lies about lots of little things, and he is not one to come clean, even when caught red handed. Always has an excuse. I just need to hear it i guess, hear it from somebody that I m not just being paranoid. Or that I am.

We are newlyWeds . I am an excellent cook . I make sure I cook for my husband every night...sometimes every other night when I get tied up with work. He loves my cooking and he tells me , but when one of his family memebers or guy friends ask him if I cook he makes a face or replies "Yeah Ramen noodles!"...it really makes me so mad . What do I say to my husband because he literally does it EVERY time !

I am the kind of person that can pack up and leave to a place I have never been. No fear. But, my husband is so stuck in his hometown. He says he wants to leave but we never make any moves to do so. I want to make a brand new life in a beautiful place! Not be stuck in this drama filled, boring town filled with asshole people and mediocre entertainment. Let's go to the hill country, a beach town, the mountains.. anywhere but here,

I left my ex-husband because he raped me. I was suicidal for while, quit school, moved to a different country and of course got a divorce. Now years later, I am engaged to another man. I am wondering if I should tell him about what happened. I am trying to go back to school now and few days ago when I got my admission letter, in my excitement I blurted out that i had tried to kill myself after quitting school earlier. My fiance went ballistic. It almost broke our engagement but we are getting back on track now. I want to tell him because it will help clear that it wasn't just because I quit school that I tried to kill myself. I am scared of his reaction. I do not know how he would react. he was sexually abused as a child. My therapist thinks that I should only tell him that there was a lot going on at the time that I was suicidal but I don't think he'll see my point through a vague explanation like this. Another reason I want to tell him is that I want it out there to see how he'll handle it and whether he is actually the man for me. Part of me doesn't want to tell him though because I don't want to aggravate the situation, don't want to make it seem like it still is a big deal with me when it isn't anymore etc. Help me decide? Fiance* Sorry, autocorrect! :)

I asked my husband before I did it and he said it was ok as long as he paid me back... I make more money than my husband and I think he might be a little jealous... My ex was behind in rent (short $150) so I sent him $200. I didn't think nothing of it until my husband said I sent "too much" In my defense I said you told me it was okay. He got angrier and left my house last night oh well I slept great it was quiet and I didn't have to make him breakfast this morning.. Anyways my point is am I wrong for helping out a FRIEND??? Like I asked him if it was okay.. It's not my fault you don't mean what you say. I think he's just jealous because I have I make money than him and he wants me to spend it all on him and that's never going to happen... I signed our prenupt and I'm taking everything I MADE with me.

My husband called me stupid and said I can t read and I just got so angry and threw my water on him. He grabbed me by my neck and pushed me up against the wall. I said you are hurting me and he said "awe poor baby, ouch your hurting me" it made me feel so nauseous the way he was treating me. Then we got into another heated argument and I had to get ready for work and he purposely locked me out of the bathroom and I banged on the door and he opened it and immediately grabbed my arms and shoved me into the AGAIN and I kept trying to push him off but he wouldn t let go. Then one time I was pulled the blanket off him him because kept falling alseep and he tried to choke me with the blanket and was kneeing me in my hip bone. His response is "how else am I suppose to handle you when you scream at me, I m sick of your ****"

My ex husband has been investigated by authorities (not charged) on more than one occasion for looking up child porn. The authorities came to his apartment (he lives alone) and confiscated his computer, phone, tv etc. during two separate investigations for child pornography. He has not been charged in either case but both investigations are ongoing. During our marriage he had a bad pornography addiction which was one of the reasons we divorced. Several people have told me he should not be around our children unsupervised(they are very hong) but he claims he is innocent and I don't get a weird vibe about him. What should I do?

I need some opinions. My husband came to have lunch with me the other day. When he left, he said he was going to the gym, but he went and had lunch with another woman. He said he didn't tell me because he knew how I would react and wanted to wait until I got home. My stomach has been sick since I have found out. Am I wrong for being upset? The woman is a mutual co-worker who recently got let go. He says he feels sorry for her. So he wanted to take her to lunch to cheer her up....advice please? It's giving me bad anxiety.
