You have introduced your boyfriend to most of your friends yet you have met none of his. You have taken several trips together as a couple and you are off work for awhile because of an injury (car wreck) but are healthy enough to travel. While you are off work your boyfriend takes a trip out of state to see his friends (male and female) and does not think of inviting you. Would you be hurt by this?

From what I understand in marriage over time the woman usually wants less and less sex. I'm a guy, but I don't have a problem if my wife would want sex less than me. However, I'm afraid that she may not sexually desire me at all. I've seen a lot of marriages where the woman doesn't ever desire the man sexually. If that was like that in my marriage I'd be really hurt. I feel like it's a big deal for my wife to find me sexually desirable, but sometimes I hear that over time it's inevitable that women never desire sex at all and only give it to the man out of obligation. That bothers me a lot. Be totally honest. Is that true. Do most women eventually completely lose any desire for sex? Why/why not? If not what can the husband do to remain sexually desirable to his wife throughout their marriage?

I think being single is just fine. I don't need anyone to "make me happy," I just need chances to finally get a good career going and make money so I can respect myself and earn others' respect. Honestly, for guys like me a relationship/marrying would be a giant load of baggage, so I don't see why others around me still think some of us guys should settle down when it's more important to have no debt and to be successful. Of course not saying relationships or marriages can't succeed since lots do, it's just that stats do show that most marriages and relationships will fail. Not to mention that it's been proven that married people are no more happy or long-lived on average than singles.

I don't know what's going on but he and I have a dwindling sex life. I've of course talked to him about it and it's always an excuse. He's tired from work. Well he was laid off for a few months but it didn't make a difference. Or that supposedly he only ever wants to at night when we're going to bed. I don't know if it's because he focuses a lot on his hobbies. Maybe he doesn't free his mind for time with me like that? We go well together though because I too have hobbies. But I still can make time for sex. Well, he is super affectionate. We both are. Very touchy feely and plenty of words expressing how we feel etc. But without sex I don't feel close to him. I feel like it's weird. I don't know what to do. I have read so much online about how there is like a percentage of people in my shoes. I hate that there's no answers. How can I feel close to him spiritually or mentally or whatever without sex? I feel an emptiness here :-/

i have never cheated on him, also there when he needs me!

So someone has a child who is 15 and has grown up thinking her brother's Dad and her Mom's ex-husband is her Dad. In reality someone else is and I am old enough to remember that. Yet that man has never met her. Her former step-Dad did know her and though he is not much of a Dad either, he is the father to her brother and the girl just knows him as her father. So come family tree do I have to list her real Dad? Can I just say "two children from a previous relationship or marriage) rather then identify the two different fathers? The last family tree I made on the other side of my family I had to identify exes including a marriage-divorce where their were no children. I also had to identify the parent of two kids born out of wedlock.

So my friend's wife is a little stressed out these days because he works all the time and they've been through a lot as a family. They haven't had sex in over a year now & she's always putting on sexy makeup & clothes trying to get validation from men because he doesn't show her enough attention. I feel kinda bad because they're in their 40s & she ain't getting any younger, it's the husband's job to make his wife feel sexy. She empowers & encourages him as a man but he's just too tired to return the favor. I'm in my early 20s but we're good friends nonetheless. She secretly asked me to talk to him about their sex life so I casually brought up my own to make him feel comfortable with the conversation, he usually trusts me enough to tell me everything but I know it's a delicate subject. So I mentioned the bible says couples should have sex constantly to resist adultery. I don't think she'd ever cheat but something's gotta give, he cares more about food than his own wife. I don't blame him, he's the sole breadwinner & has a lot of stress. Anyway, the three of us got to talking and long story short, they suggested that I sleep with her to turn up the heat, then she can bring the moves back to him & strengthen their sex life. I said well why don't I just tell him what to do with her, they said it wouldn't be the same. She said she always thought about sex with me but loves her husband. I figure since it's just physical with no emotion, it might not be so bad. Is it wrong?

Everyone talks about honey moon phases and I even just read an article about how that euphoria in ur brain can't last for over a year. I just hit two years with my partner and I still feel as passionate and crazy about him since day 1, sometimes even more. I feel like I'm not normal?lol. We've also been long distance for so long due to family/school/work so idk if that has something to do with it. Clearly I'm not unhappy about it, but it doesn't add up?

I'd love that :) How am I suppose to write my vows without you knowing them before I read them to you?

Reasons I think he does:Caught him staring at me and he smiled and shook his head a little.Saw him looking out of the corner of my eye and when I turned my head he averted his gaze really quickly.His eyes seem to twinkle at me.We started to get on really well and then he seemed to start getting nervous around me (running his hands through his hair, mumbling alot, short answers when I initiate the conversation)Hes confident though when he starts the conversationWhen he was 'dancing' he turned away from me and stroked his bottom LOL and then turned to his side and put his hand on his thigh and looked directly at me to see if I was looking.He glances at me before he leaves.Says my name alotLooks at me with wide eyes and always stands up straight and puffs his chest out around meAlways brushes my fingers when handing me somethingRecently has started to sit next to me and have our legs and knees touching and was bumping into me while we were walkingReasons I think he doesnt:He's 11 years olderHe's married as am I (once everyone was winding him up about fancying me in front of his wife and he didn't say he did and he didn't deny it either)He's a member of my husbands familyI understand that men will find women attractive even when married and I think I can safely say he does but with him starting to try and get closer could he possibly be after more?Please don't say 'why do you care you are both married etc.' I just want my question answering. Thanks.

My husband is a university professor, he made a big mistake and he asked one of his students for a date he told me shes 28, she dropped his class and dated him, then she left him. He kept calling texting her. She got annoyed and she said she will report him to the dean office. My husband told this today because he felt his career in danger, I feel terrible for this cheating. But we have 3 kids I do not want him to be kicked out (I don't want my kids to know what their dad did). In his case who's fault was? his fault or the student? or both will be in trouble if she reports him?

Ok this is TMI I know but I'm desperate for answers 2 weeks ago me and my boyfriend had sex right after I gave him a sloppy BJ so even after he put on the condom there was wet stuff dripping down his balls I know it was mostly my spit but it could have been some pre C*m mixed in with it and while we were having sex some of that wetness was slapping my vagina during it anyways the only reason why I'm so paranoid is cause that was the day before my ovulation day and by the time i woke up the next morning i knew i was ouvlating cause i was having cramps and discharge and i had to work all day had no time to get a plan B pill anyways my friend told me it would be basically impossible to get pregnant that way and espeaically since i wiped off my vagina afterwards and the condom didnt break at all (shes pregnant so i believed her) NOW I'm late on my period it was suppose to come yesterday but nothing has happened I'm only having clear discharge and light cramps not the heavy cramps I usually experience before my period I'm freaking OUT!! Could I have gotten pregnant from wet balls hitting my vagina?!? It was near my cl*t!

I did. I forgot to put my phone away and hid it under the quilt. My dad came to wake me up the next day and he lifted the quilt. I'm struggling to get over that moment now.

My career is important to me and I want to feel like I achieved a lot on my life. Men are not gonna help me have that. Moreover, in relationships, most men and women are selfish, so finding a decent man is rare, and also, most men want sex & nothing else, so I'd rather focus on something I have control over. With my career, I can be happy and free & have money. Men are dime a dozen. AM I evil for this? Don't say that you can have both; many women cannot cuz 1) men just want sex, 2) good men are rare and 3)juggling both is hard. I'd rather have a good carer and money than a good man or a relationship.

After knowing you wanted to marry her, why did you wait to tell her so? Did things like finances hold you back? If there was some sort of obstacle preventing you from getting married at the time, did you at least let her know how you felt? Thank you!

the new marriage.

Kyle: Thanks. I had a feeling she was the one who wanted out. After she had the baby, are they still flipping together? Do you think it is the contractor named Israel?

My wife is always telling me about how much men hit on her, how single dads from school want her number and find her on Facebook, how they flirt with her and ask her is she is seeing anyone, etc but after observing her in certain situations she is defiantly being overly friendly with these guy but I said nothing about it. She also adds them on Facebook and they will like each others photos. She also tells me about how she is good friends with a guy she knows and how he would do anything for her, she has even gone to visit and stay him without inviting me. How do I deal with her constant games?

My wife has been wanting to end it for a while but 5 months ago she has started to make it very clear. To the point where she wants me to leave the house. there is no abuse going on and I have never cheated on her so it s kind of making me confused. She just keeps saying that we grew apart. We do have kids as well so it s making me very upset for them. Has anyone else been in this situation and did you leave your home or stay? Thank you

I am going through a very rough phase. M in-laws lived with us for fourteen years and created all sort of hell for me including instigating my husband against me, making me do all the household chores etc. They visited India several years ago and there my mother in-law became ill and they had to postpone coming back for a few months. In those months our life became peaceful and my husband decided that they could live a little longer in India and he started looking for a separate house for us so that we could live separately from them when they return. Meanwhile my father-in-law passed away in India and now for the past year or so my mother-in-law has been living with us with life coming to a full circle with my husband turning hostile towards me once again and my mother-in-law instigating him further. Being a widow she is playing the part of a victim very well. This type of atmosphere is affecting my daughter as my husband has started poisoning her against me as he feels that his parents are angelic figures who have been deprived of their happiness by me. They never cared about their granddaughter but he is projecting them as people who were always anxious to take care of her while I know the truth is to the contrary. This whole atmosphere has been affecting her studies and her disposition. I am at a loose end what to do. If I go for divorce , will it solve the problem?

Me and my wife are having a baby next month. She has a daughter from a previous marriage she's 4. She said she wants to have another baby after our son is born. I don't even know if it's possible for her to get pregnant again after she gives birth. I think 2 kids is enough for right now. Especially since she's only 24 years old. She had her daughter when she was 20. Her daughter's father was never really around they were only married for a year. He had a son from a previous marriage too. Her ex was a lot older than her. He's almost 40. The marriage didn't work out too well. She said she does want to have more kids I do to but not right now. What should I do ?

My husband is the superintendent of our church's Sunday School dept and since last Aug he's been working on getting a college gospel choir to come perform at our church. Our niece sings on that choir and he thought it would be a great thing to have her school come perform for one of our sunday services. The date was confirmed and I sent out a text message to our family inviting them to our services that sunday. A few weeks ago our pastor got with my husband to inform him of a scheduling conflict and asked if he could rearrange a better date. Yesterday my husband send an email to the director of the choir and during service he got a reply back from him with a different date a few months away. He informed the pastor of that date and the pastor said ok. He told our pastor that he would reply once he got home to the director that we could confirm that date. On the way home from church I sent out another group text message to our family members that the date had changed and when my husband got the msg he asked me why I had sent out the msg before he confirmed it with the choir director. I didn't think it was that big of a deal but apparently my husband did. Then he said something that got my goat up. He's been trying to get me involved in the Sunday School dept. but that's not what I want to do. He has asked me to open up with prayer and I have refused. He's asked me to teach and I don't want to do that. He even said that I could tag team with him in his class and he'd prepare the lesson and help me out. I have no desire to do any of that. His comment to me was this. "I can't get you to do anything when it comes to the Sunday School dept but you have no problem taking it upon yourself to just send out a mass text msg announcing the date change even before it had been officially confirmed. I felt that was insensitive on his part. He said I was wrong to do that. Was I and how should I feel about his comments to me?

just sexually. otherwise we get along great. he understands my needs just sexually. otherwise we get along great. he understands my needs

My son's Godfather's birthday is today. The family is having a small celebration tonight at their house after work. I don't really want to go, especially after the way my husband completely disrespected me this weekend. My kids fells asleep just before we usually leave for church. Since they've been sick, I thought it best to just let them rest. Then his nephew called at the last minute to ask for a ride to church. As it turns out, there was a party to celebrate the feast day of the Saint. And now I realize that my husband knew BEFORE he even left that there was going to be a party, which just added more "fuel to the fire." Mass ends just before 8:00 PM. 9:30 PM and my husband still wasn't home, so I call him. He tells me that he was still at church, and when I ask why didn't tell me or call, he said "Well, you were tired." Like that' Then on Sunday, he tells me that I don't need to be angry when he's at church. Like I was supposed to know that. There wasn't any announcement for this party, and he didn't care to tell me anything before he left. Back to this evening...I don't feel like I can be around them--or anyone--right now as a family. My husband does this so often (keeping me in the dark on things), that I feel he needs to learn a lesson. But I also know that if I can confide in my son's Godmother and let her know I won't be coming with the kids, she'll tell my husband right away. But at the same time, not taking my son to see his Godfather on his birthday isn't right either. My dad just thinks that I shouldn't go or any answer the phone. "Go off grid" as he put it. I have every right to be upset when he doesn't tell me stuff, especially when it affects the kids to the point that my 2 year old is at the window every 5 minutes asking where daddy is and my 3 year old responding to him "Be quiet, daddy's not coming."

We have a kid together and shes pregnant with our 2nd one. Now, she tells me she never ever loved me and wants a divorce. am going crazy because this has hit me like a storm. Sex is completely off the table, now, things are so bad we are just living like room mates in the same house. Its driving me mad and yet I love her like the stupid guy i am. Could it be the bloody hormones? I swear, women really are scary at this point.

I gave 3 of my husbands friends bj while my husband watched, we all were drunk at super bowl party, husband made me take my shirt off to show his friends how great my body is, I was on period so I said no more, but then he said give his friends kisses on privates, then I got excited, they all finished on me, now I feel dirty .I came home and showered, husband wont talk to me. he made me do it,sure I liked it but now I don't.is this normal?

One of the symptoms of AIDS is unusual behavior and she might be staring at me cause of it.. What should I do?

I am marrying a woman from an southeast asian country and my idiot cousin tom who is a trump fan is against her coming here. He doesn't want her here and told me to go over there and live with her. I don't get why people are against her coming here for no reason. Why are they against her coming here legally ?
