Two years ago my dad had a baby with a much younger woman. I'm talking 30 years younger. She had the baby and he had visiting rights and whatnot. Now she got arrested on drug charges and the grandma has the kid. My dad got a call while he was in the ER passing a kidney stone and obviously couldn't do anything about it, so the grandma got the kid and wont let me dad see the kid or take any involvement in it.

My husband and I are going to try to start conceiving soon. My mom and my mother in law have said if we can become pregnant, they would watch our child. This is AMAZING- but my in laws give me anxiety. My husband has siblings that are 7-10 years older than him. His parents had them young, and they had a rough childhood growing up. They are all pretty close with their mom, but not with their dad. It is confusing to me though because my husband and I get along with him fine, as does my nephew who is 12. The siblings say he had a temper when he was younger and was abusive to them and the mom; my husband says he was disciplined, but not abused, and never saw his mom abused. I mentioned something once and said "well it's not like u were touched or something" and my sister in law says she was. I am driving myself NUTS because I THINK I asked if it was her father and I THINK she said "NO WAY"! But, I can't remember- it was 5 years ago. I think it is pressing on my mind now because we are trying to conceive and that is concerning. My husband says I did ask her, and she said it was NOT their father, but I can't remember! :( He says if that ever happened, there is no way she would let the other grandkids be around him, or spend any time near him. My husband says he thinks someone would have stepped up to his father. It is driving me insane! Part of me wants to ask her (again) but I also know that is offensive if untrue! I do have OCD and anxiety, so I do tend to dwell on things. My questions are these: Do you think I am making up scenarios out of nervousness to conceive and over thinking? DO you think my husband is correct in saying it probably would have been uncovered by now, where the siblings are in their 40's? Should I leave this alone until I DO become pregnant and THEN say something, or do I ask about it now, when it will be out of the blue?

Porque un chico me dijo "perdón por no hallar favor a tus ojos" ... que me quizo decir con eso??? Es un amigo con quien paso mucho tiempo y eso hizo que nazca sentimientos en nosotros sin querer solo que yo solo lo quiero como amigo y el me ve con otros ojos ...

What's a good way to convince people to help you with something? I need people to use my code for an app but no one wants to. How do I convince them?

I had an employee relations issue in my office. This coworker, became everyone's best friend, we talked personal things I looked up to her as a mentor, she was extremely trusting, very friendly, we were best of friends on face book. She shared some very personal stuff about her life with me. I was her department manager. When we were hit with budget cuts and her hours got cut, she pounced on me. Everything I shared with her, personal stuff, things we talked about outside of work etc, she called HR on me and the Ethics line and filed a complain. She was a born again Christian and would always minister to me. My Director got involved because she did not want to deal with me. He after weeks of going back and forth, decided to do a group conversation. Things went horribly wrong, she accused me of everything under he sun that was unethical in her eyes that she could. She was emotional and very determined to "get me". With proof in my hand about the things she was accussing me of, my boss sided with her . I was very angry and upset. He offered her a transfer but she quit. My boss never said anything to me after that, my reporting manager, when I tried to talk to her she said "let it go, it's in the past, she's gone". I called HR they told me "did your boss mistreat you, did he reprimand you" "she is gone you are still here for a reason". My all of my colleagues are laughing at me and all of my bosses are ignoring me and not talking to me. What do you think? I forgot to add one thing everyone is laughing at me, everyone knows what happen in my office but everyone is pretending not to know anything and when mentioned this woman's name they start laughing.

I was hurt because of my Ex, I have loved him with all my life, I have sacrifice my time, comfort, family but I wouldn't mind doing those things. I smoke, I drink when our relationship is on and off a few weeks after our breakup, This friend of mine, I chatted with him , we continuously communicate, until one time he said he liked me, which I have no problem with that as it is only " like" he was there for me when I was down and depressed because of my ex, until he loved me and said he will make me forget him ( Which is impossible for me, because I really loved this guy, we made a vow and my ex loved me but I really loved my ex and mostly sacrificed ) it is very painful for me. until this Guy, got mad at me because I can't forget him, I started everything the sex,he agreed and we had sex, as my solution of my pain, we almost had sex every day until one time, He cried after sex, pretty hard, he was crying a lot and won't stop,he said "I don't love him, he is texting always at me, always there for me, I am taking advantage of him because he loves me a lot, that he can't be without me, I can't be angry at you, what should I do?, U are taking advantage of me because u Knew I'll always come back to you." I also had develop a little things for him, but I wan't to ignore everything, I was hurt inside when he cried. I showed no emotions outside. But I am always precise and i didn't gave any words that made him think that there is "hope" for him. I am confused and tired inside.

They call me autistic and think I have a mental illness but they don't realise how much it hurts me when they say that I get emotional and cry and they just laugh at me. They don't know am a depressed person either and like its just painful because if I tell them they will laugh and ask me where did I get that from :(

So I am a married medical receptionist with kids ( I m 24). And I am attracted to my boss(he s 40 something) and coworker thats a girl (she s 27) the guy is a doctor who also has wife and kids. This happened after his mom (family owned business) showed us a picture of his family and he was in swim wear with a smoking hot body. Ever since then fantasies keep popping up in my head and it feels like I m in heat all the time. How do I make this stop. I don t think he knows I m always smiling and nice to everyone and he s always asking am i ok which is professional. On top of that we got into an argument over business matters and he s also an *** at times. Does he know ? How can I get my mind away from this.

Why does this married woman act this way? I have a coworker who always dresses well to work. she has an hourglass shape and shows it off by wearing belts and fitted clothes. Everybody compliments her style. Why does she have a flat belly when she's had a child and I have a big belly and haven't had a child? She doesn't even go to the gym and I do. I also noticed that i can wear the most expensive shoes and people won't even pay attention. Besides, I don't care about my big belly anymore because I'm married and don't need to impress anyone. Do you think its right for a woman who's married and has a kid to dress that way. Our boss is always staring at her and has fired others, but hasn't fires her even after the supervisor made numerous complaints. He said he likes her personality and her personally?

I am19 and I want to change my family and even identity I just dont wanna go back on this one anymore... it pains me.. everyday I have to deal with people who just can't really understand me... and zi feel out of place because of that all the time and not belonging in a place. It doesnt really feel much of a home to me. And I wish someone could just take me away from here..

Would it annoy you if your spouse was constantly telling you how much she loved a certain politician and saying she "loves him" in front of you and other people even though she doesn't know him personally, has never met him and some of his policies have been complete failures. Would this annoy you?

Bueno yo me llamo Maria tengo 16 años y mi novio me dejo de hablar por segunda vez, la primera vez me dejo de hablar por 3 dias y yo no lo busque por orgullo pero nos encontramos por la calle y hablamos y me dijo que era para "probarme" y checarme aver que hacia y pues yo lo perdone y seguimos normal, ahora paso lo mismo me dejo de hablar y ayer tambien nos topamos por la calle y hablamos y yo le reclame y el solo empezo a llorar pero no me dio ninguna respuesta solo me dijo que no sabia y me fue a dejar a la casa y el se fue a la suya y solo hablamos poquito y se quedo dormido y cuando desperte en la mañana solo tenia un mensaje que decia "Buenos dias, lo siento anoche por no contestarte esque me quede dormido" y yo le conteste y ahora otraves no me habla y me ignora tenemos 9 meses de relacion.. Que hago? Enserio lo amo demaciado

Why does my mother think it is finy to mock others(their looks, their personalities, etc). She will mock others and think it is funny to do it in front of people or behind their backs. She has also mocked me behind my back several times and it is very hurtful.

ill try to make something long as short as possible. We're all 17 so its not some silly thing. and i hate her boyfriend for legitimate reasons. About last week she started going out with this guy "James" and i had to pretend to be happy for her. James has harrassed me so bad last school year . He stalked me, did everything to make my life bad at the time, he started nasty rumors , tried to ruin all my friend ships, tried to force me to have s*x with him and send him nudes (i never did either) when i clearly didnt want to .he sexually assaulted me ( i wont get into that story). later that year i blocked him on everything possible and avoided him at all costs . which he continued to make rumors that i gave him a r!mjob and stuff. he has no friends at school, he has no family, does every drug under the sun. hes just a toxic, evil person. -- Anyway my best friend is dating him and has been with him every day since, she's not talking to me anymore and i terribly miss her. At the same time, i dont wanna be with James. She knows i had really bad problems with him, thats why she hasnt been including me but she is way too good for him. Hes truly getting in the way of our friendship again and its a very bad situation cause of the stuff that happened. she also keeps sending me videos of them and i have to pretend to support it. when in reality im down, depressed and livid. i want my friend to be happy, i really do but ive never hated anyone so much. What should i do?? im at a loss i really dont want to lose her as a friend cause of this c*** of a boyfriend. ive tried being positive about it but i just cant after all hes done i rreposted this cause the other one didnt get alot of helpful responses

I'm thinking about this very seriously. My plan is: focus on GCSEs first, do a small job when I have time (e.g. Handing out newspapers), go to college and then try a tiny bit bigger job (e.g. At a coffee shop), meanwhile apply for University in America. I need enough money to rent an apartment and pay for the university. I can do some modelling in between. Any tips?

My parents are rich and they buy me everything but they don't help me in the least. I need someone to force me to do homework, force me to sleep at a reasonable hour, force me to just be a good kid overall. There has been zero consequences in my life and I feel like I'm slipping away from the right path. I wish someone would just rein me in, set boundaries for me, punish me when needed, etc. I hate that I'm admitting to this need. And I hate that there are no adults who care about me enough to set rules and consequences. Money clearly isn't everything. @pearlmar: You've obviously lived an easy life and you don't care about the difficulties other people are having. **** you, **** you all.

I'm a 28 year old female who is spiritually grounded and a born-again Christian. My pastor's wife has been mentoring me and few other women in the church for about 5 years now. She really is preparing us to be the women that God has called us to be and mostly she encourages us.She is someone who we all hold at high regards. A few years ago her son who is 28 years old as well,got out of relationship with a older woman that his parents did not approve of and his mother would express her displeasing view of his relationship all the time, Long story short, him and I started dating in November,2015, it started out with us just hanging then us getting to know each other because I'm abstaining from sex until marriage there is nothing sexual about our relationship but we both are attracted to each other. Its like the more time we spend with each other the closer we get and learn more about each other and fall in love deeper, We have expressed deeper feelings for each other.I have fell in love with him and him in love with me. He has been pushing for us telling his parents,so they would know that we are courting but I have been reluctant to do so because I don't know how she would receive me being her son's girlfriend and potentially her daughter in-law.She knows where my values stand and also she knows the kind of woman I'm striving to be and I can only trust that she knows that her mentoring me has been effective but I also know that she is very protective of her son(s).

i saw my step cousin 6 years ago and we kissed and talked for a quit a while i have not seen her since Yesterday i saw her at the furnall but i dont know what to say to her i like her a lot plz help me

No it doesn't look like we had sexual intercourse, and we had underwear on. She was comfortable with it (we are really close) and there is nothing weird between us (incest)

Ho da poco rivisto in spiaggia la mia ex con la quale ho avuto una relazione due anni fa e l'altra sera sono stato ad una festa dove c'eravamo io, lei, altri amici ed un mio amico che è stato con lei l'anno scorso. Io non provo, o almeno, non dovrei provare, niente per lei e in effetti ci riesco bene, normalmente, ma il fatto è che quando c'è anche il mio amico lei è molto amichevole e affettuosa con lui tanto che si potrebbe pensare ad un ritorno di fiamma e a me sale una gelosia estremamente fastidiosa. Alla festa di cui ho parlato prima, è successa una cosa "piccante" (no, non baci o robe sconce) grazie ad un "obbligo o verità", dettato dal mio amico, tra me e lei. Da quella situazione mi sono venuti in mente due dubbi: 1) Lui mi ha fatto un piacere? 2) Lei che l'ha fatto senza problemi pur non essendo una cosa tanto " normale" tra due amici, ha qualcosa per la testa nei miei confronti? (Si trattava di leccarmi da un certo punto del corpo fino ad un altro) Sto cercando di reprimere i sentimenti come è giusto che sia ma comincio a crollare. Avete dei consigli per migliorare la mia situazione o alleviare il senso di malessere? Ne ho davvero bisogno.

Our son is 12 years old and our daughter is 9 years old. We have our hearts set on a beautiful 5 star resort in the Bahamas but there are no rooms that can sleep more than 2 people. We have been planning on this trip for 3 years and wanted the kids to get the experience also. We were debating on letting our kids sleep in a separate guest room of their own. The room has a bedroom, bathroom, and outdoor deck with an infinity pool. Would this be a good idea or not? Why?

My dad just a got a divorce with my mom (8 months ago). Both my little sister (11) & I (16) wanted to live with my dad. Anyways my mom let me go live with my dad (6 months ago) with the condition of him still paying child support for me. The problem is that my little sister wants to come live with us. My mom leaves her home alone for 8 hours taking care of my 2 little cousins, which are of age 7 & 9. She cooks for them & everything. I think it's very dangerous. My mom abused me ALOT for very small things. She used to leave me in charge of my little sister since I was 9, I had to pick her up from her babysitters house as soon as I got out of school, cook for her, bathe her. It was like if I was her mother. She would always defend me when my mom would start punching me (in the face) or hitting me with wet towels, really anything that could hurt me. She made me bleed and everything. She did the same with my little sister but not as much as she did to me. I just want my little sister to be safe, & I don't want to worry my dad. He has heart issues, so I just want to see what I can do. I know it's best to leave it to an adult. But I feel so bad whenever my sister cries that she doesn't want to be with her. Recently my sister told me that my mother threatens her by telling her she'll get a cop on her if she stays with my dad. It makes me angry because she did the same with me. I want any sort of advice or anything helpful. Any opinions & ideas are welcomed, thanks.

I too have done this and can't understand why knowing that the individual I favored was not the kind of person I'd be friends with.

I work in a grocery store and almost every day I see This guy. No offense it's just kinda hard to miss - the first thing I noticed was his missing arm. But I noticed how cool he was with it, he's so so coordinated with his other arm. I just thought wow, I'm less graceful. He's really cute as well, probably around my age (I'm 19, I'd put him at no more than 25). I started being really nice to him, just trying to kind of start a conversation. And then every other coworker around tries to butt in and talk to him too, but they all use that obnoxious sympathetic voice with him. Which makes it sound like that's what I'm doing! He hasn't said anything directly but once I was on break and came up to the register he was at to say hi, and he said "I got it" and grabbed his bags really quickly. All I wanted to do was start a conversation, ugh! I'm not conceited, but a decent number of guys think I'm attractive so it's not like I'm scaring him. He just seems really cool, I've seen him with people he knows well and he acts so fun and sweet, he just seems kind of defensive around people he doesn't know well and I don't blame him. He was really nice with me before other people made it weird. And I know exactly what they were doing, because as soon as he leaves they talk about his damn arm, so I'm sure he picked up on that too. Should I even try or just let it go?

Me and my boyfriend have been dating for 6 months now and at first he wanted everything to do with me but I was so closed off from being hurt in my last relationship that I only saw him maybe once or twice a week but once things started getting serious I been wanting to be around him more and it seems like now he just wants to be around his friends .. before me he dated someone for 5 years and has a kid with his previous relationship so she never let him leave the house or hangout with his friends because she s crazy lol I just feel like when me and him hangout he seems like he rather be doing something else then hanging out with me so I just leave .. and for example on the 4th of July he wanted to go to a party with his friends and I really didn t want to go I just wanted it to be me and him and he ended up going anyways.. and he said he only went because hes missed out on alot being with his previous girlfriend but it seems like he says that about everything. it kind of hurts because his last girlfriend had more control over him (not that I want to control him) but I want to have a say in more things then I do. I want him to wanna hangout with me and he says he does but his actions don t really show it. Am I over reacting? What should I do?

I need to make a best friend that i can tell everything too and stuff and that will let me in on secrets in stuff. I'm always the odd one out of things and I'm really starting to be bothered. I just really would like I best friend to hang out with and stuff but I can't seem to make one.!

I recently had an ectopic pregnancy 5 weeks ago. I was 7 weeks one day pregnant. We weren't a couple it was a brief fling. The baby's father was away on holiday so I messaged him on Facebook telling him I was pregnant and I lost the baby due to an ectopic pregnancy he was in Argentina at the time. He lives outside town but will be back for college in a few weeks. He's never once asked how I was or asked anything about the baby apart from "are you still pregnant" and "have you any scans, certs or medical reports". I didn't have any of these things at the time why would I? He then blocked me on Facebook on 2 of my accounts. I recently got pictures of the ultrasound and I am thinking of sending them to him via a friend on Facebook. Why shouldn't he see these images?

I am not the best at reading emotions, am someone who is straightforward and just says what comes to mind, sometimes can be really harsh, I don t like crying and emotional girls hence when I say something mean to her see tries holding it in but have seen her eyes go watery and her behavior change (I know she does cry when am not there). We do have lots of fun together and laugh, everywhere (even when sitting in a room with nothing to do we somehow have fun and laugh). On the other hand we do argue and she always has a go at and lectures when I say something I shouldn t to someone and so on, everyone who sees us thinks we are together and do not believe us one we say we are not. Latley more and more people say that she likes me, because apparently her eyes light up when she see me and when we talk and so on. it seems we are mentally in a relationship just not physically. So my question is are we in to each other? Shod I ask her out? And see where it goes Or just atop talking to her? By the way about I ve known her for an year and their was a period of about 9-10 months when I completely stopped talking to her. And there was also a moment where I asked her out to prove to my friends she wasn t in to me and she would say no, however she first said "I don t know let me think" but then I really harashlly asked her "yes or no!!!" And she replied "i don t know, no"i Thanks guys and sorry for all the reading you have to do

I mean he talks about his mom a lot sometimes but not all the time. Everytime! . I understands that he loves his mom but he can't ALWAYS stick around her all the time! He needs space and she needs space! He's an ADULT! Not 6. He's 23 and I'm 22. He STILL lives with his mother because he can't afford to move out. He needs to get his own place or us get our own place. I have my own place and I'm very independent. He hangs out with her too much and I'm tired of it. He makes time for me which is good. He's such a Mama's Boy and that turns me COMPLETELY OFF!!!! I don't know if I can live with someone like that. I can't date a man that lives with his mom or too attached to her. He needs to back the hell off and do his own thing and needs to spend time with ME more. I'm going to be very blunt with him when he calls me tonight at 8. I'm fed up with this!

I was visiting a friend and her husband. I'd seen him around but i never really realized how attractive he is until then. I got really turned on and it was kind of hard to look him directly in the eyes. If you know what I mean lol. All I could think about was having sex with him. I usually never think this way about one of my friend's husband, but I couldn't help it this time. Has this ever happened to you?

Literally for years every girl I meet cliques with a string of jerks and bullies! Even the ones in their 30s cliques with guys that are in their 30s and 40s and 50s that still are jerks and bullies, just never got out of the phase. I mean for example, they would be rowdy and loud and do mischievous things and dress very sporty or very teenage for their age, almost of of them have a six pack, and smart aleck and loud, petty and annoying. Anyway, when I try to get to know the girl, eventually I would be confronted and likely jumped by them who acts as though as they aren't afraid of policemen! Sometimes the girl might want to see a 'fight' other times she just thinks it funny. But for years it is a freaken repeat, I meet a girl that is 'single' and she has a flow of rowdy immature airhead guy friends! I'm sick of it! I don't know what to do?

My boyfriend and I have been dating for several months. We agreed to introduce one another with our families. My daughters turned 18 and 20 and the meeting went well. When it was my turn to meet my boyfriend's son, things became awkward. My boyfriend is 42 and I'm 40. He pretty much said"Great job, Dad!" When my boyfriend left for a little bit, his son started asking me sexual questions. When I told him to stop, he ignored me until his Dad came. What's more sad is his father thinks highly of him. How do I break this to my man?

Her mom didn't say anything, she just looked at me and ran her finger across her neck.

Her husband texted me back today and called me several times. He also went to my work. Luckily, I was doing field work but he left some rather nasty messages to my boss about my character. She called me today and she's staying in a hotel. Her husband kicked her out and served her with divorce papers. I offered to take her in but she refused. She asked me to stay with her. I love her and I hate seeing her so broken. Is it a good idea to apologize to her husband through Facebook?

there was this guy in my class, he loves all the girls in school and not me, then this male physics teacher, that laughed at me, and told me that me coming to school and studying is a big joke. And he loves everyone else, and always acts scared of me and I'm so pretty, Why, would people abuse me like this. I took a year off and switched schools to recover from this. It's like a horror movie that wont end, my life, I thought, I'd be with those people forever before that's probably why I was suicidal. Before I saw the sunlight in life, how happy it is. I was thinking, in Ed Sheeran's song photograph, life is full of couples that take one billion pictures of they're happy selves in love. And if i'm always so sad, maybe I'd be happier dead, so I'll kill myself, anything was better than my living hell life. Now those people aren't in my life, and I'm much happier. I'm always laughing now. That's what I want. I can't help feeling wrong for being happy cause im not used to it. I got the idea that some people are bad, and jerks but they're always nice to others in front my face for me to feel like sh*t
