My fiancé just lost an AMAZING job a couple of weeks ago. He was low man on the totem pole and was victim to job cuts, despite having been there five years. This job had amazing pay and great benefits, including a car and cell phone. We have only been engaged for about two months, and while I feel awful for him, I'm feeling really sad and a ton of pressure. I am sad to see all of these plans fall away (big wedding and honeymoon, a move to a bigger place, vacations we were hoping to take) and I'm feeling the pressure of being the only breadwinner. Along with a stressful time at work, it's making me very sad and low. However, I realize I'm not the only one reeling right now. I want to be there for him as best I can, I am just having a hard time finding a ton of energy to do so. Any tips on getting through this rough patch? I love this man and realize this is first of possibly many hard times we will endure, but since I'm new at this I would love some advice. Thanks!

For the record, I look my like 43. All my hair, minimal gray, work a physical job, very fit. I know I'm good looking, women my age and a bit younger all throw themselves at me. I am married. My wife is sl7ghtly older. A recent stroke has left her severely disabled. I rented a room to a young woman. She has helped me take care of my wife and refuses to take money. She has been very affectionate towards me. Not long ago, while sleeping on the sofa, wife is in bed, I woke up to find hersnuggled up against me. It is getting more and more intense. My wife, unable to participate anymore has said it would be understandable if I had relations with this young woman. She will not say "do it" because she is my wife. But I am a man with needs. Her only request is I wear a condom. I don't know. Things are definitely moving in that direction. Will they get to that point? I don't know. If they do, I don't know how I feel about it. I like the woman. I don't love her. She is somewhat attractive and available.

My LDR boyfriend recently told me he thinks he's holding me back. We have been together just over 2 years and have been planning on marrying. There's been a few bumps in the road but we have managed to work things out. He's been very distant the last few months and the longest we went without talking is 2 months. This last time was about 3 weeks with out talking and our last conversation was that he felt he was holding me back. I assured him he wasn't and that I'm still committed but not happy with the way communication has been. What do you think he's really trying to say?

Husband and I are always looking for new ideas in the sex world and ideas bondage, anything to help us.

My husband went to a foreign country to try to divorce me.We got married in the United States and have been separated informally for 4 years.what are my rights ? I cannot travel to that foreign country and I was not ready for a divorce.We have a child together.

The husband is the boss and the woman should do as she is told, that is the way it should be

We have been married for 4 years. It's not that he started to masturbate every night recently. But we have kids so I'm busy all day and when I get our kids to sleep I usually fall asleep. My husband spends the night alone till 3-5am. He watches TV, plays video games or computer. And he masturbates every night sometimes 2 times. We have sex 2-5 times a week. Sometimes 1 hour after we have sex he masturbates. He spends a lot of time for it. Sometimes he keeps watching porn more than 1 hour. I don't know why he doesn't want to spend time with me at night. He can wake me up. It seems he prefers to spend time alone. I also wanna know what most husbands and wives do together at night who have kids. Thanks!

My wife is 5 months pregnant with our 2nd child. The hormones are through the roof. It's my job to pick up my sons toys at the end of the night. I was very tired last night and was just half out of it when I went to bed. My wife went to bed after me and I woke up to toys getting thrown into the toy box. Very loud and very hard. Then she comes into the bedroom and she throws a pile of clothes at me and screams "you should be sleeping on the couch!" I found out this morning she tripped on one of the toys and fell to her knees. I felt bad so I sincerely apologized. But I told her, "it does not give you the right to scream at me and throw things at me." So she gets more mad and says I took my apology back. I said "I will apologize for not picking the toys up and I feel bad that it happened because I could've prevented it. But I'm not gonna apologize for you not watching where you're walking." And she needs to apologize for her side. Am I wrong? I get hormones make women act crazy. But they can still realize they did something wrong and apologize. She thinks because hormones made her do it, she doesn't have to apologize for anything. This happens when Aunt Flo visits also.

I know this is a crazy question, but my child is suppose to go with his dad 1st weekend 2nd weekend of the month etc. June 1st started on a Thursday. Was this considered to be the first weekend of the month per the agreement?

My boss is 40 & he told me since day one he thinks I'm gorgeous & he hired me to appeal & flirt with the customers. We have friends in common so we are acquaintances. It's not inappropriate. He is very laid back & honest. He loves to tell me about all of the girls he is dating. He cheats & thinks thats natural. I'm 24 & married for 2 yrs. But i got married bc my parents ddnt aprove of my bf.. so i wanted to be a rebel. I love my husband but he is my first everything. Talking to my boss makes me realize maybe I want to experience b4 settling down.. i want to try different men. & right now I want my boss. I dont believe in cheating but I always believe in doing w.e I want to please myself.  I know it's not fair to my husband. I need to know what to do.

Call me crazy, but I love my last name. I'm the last one in my lineage (if that's even the right terminology!) and I want to pass it on to my children. My fiance says he would prefer me to just take his name, I asked him if he'd take mine and he said "no, that's emasculating." So, I'm thinking i'll just hyphenate i to make him happy... Did you keep your name?

It's been 14 months now, I love him and he says he loves me but last weekend was the third time he pulled out of leaving his wife. I am independent financially and we see each other three times a week, his wife does not know but I am so upset he let me down so think I should go see her and tell her to let me have my man

I found a text message on my husbands cellphone between him and a man. they were calling each other "Babe". and apparently they work together. I confronted my husband and he took the phone from my hands and erased the text. he told me he is not gay and that its an inside joke between him and that guy. that its "Locker room talk" and that I am over reacting to something I dont find funny. I dont know what to do. I cannot distringuish if it was a joke or was it real? Im heartbroken.

We hired an au pair from Ghana in May. My wife claims he is gay, but lately I am having suspicions. whenever we come home they greet each other with a kiss on the lips, and I have even caught him giving her a firm smack on the rear twice this week

They are a kind of entertaining but what the hell...

I just don't fancy her any more and go thru the motions of sex to please her but it's getting old

Does having a wife and kids result in a better quality of life? What do you think of the "telling your grandkids your interesting life story" thing? Although my grandparents didn't have much affection for me and didn't share many stories. If a person has been single all his life, how would he know if starting a family would make him better/worse off? You cannot treat marriage and kids as an experiment, since getting out of it is not easy and running away from your kids is not ethical.

I am a stay at home mom of a 1 year and 3 year old and I would like to start working.My husband got mad at me last night when I said I wanted to start working.He said that If I want to work then I need to leave if I decided against his will.I don't understand what's the problem.I just want to help contribute to our household and not feel like a burden.I started to cry last night because I felt like this a bit extreme just because I want to work.

Mine is the fact that my wife hates watching tv but gets hurt feelings if I watch a show without her. She'll watch one episode of what ever with me and then go to YouTube and watch vlogs the rest of the night. I hare vlogs . . .

He's a very good looking guy I knew he had others but now it's non stop so many! It's as if he misses his wild oats days, he goes into great detail, I told him to stop but he can't, is he wandering off?

I am considering building a wedding trailer to rent. It will be 30ft long 11ft 6 inches wide. yes, I know that's over width ( I move mobile homes for a living). It will have a gambrel roof and look like a little barn. I will put a 30 ft long awning on each side. Inside I will fill it with tables, chairs, a huge grill, whiskey barrels, wagon wheels, plates, cups, silverware, lanterns, lights, decorations. I even considered integrating his and her bathroom, water tank, storage tank. I may have to make it longer if I do the bathrooms. I was hoping to rent this out and move it around to places people want to get married or maybe even family reunions or other events. What do you think? Would this work? There is nothing like this in my area, nor have I ever heard of this before. Thanks

What am I suppose to do ? Married for 7 years and her for 8 , recently we thought selling the house is good idea and finance the house at a much lower interest , my wife and I moved to the house we are selling the same day but the difference that she was the buyer ,I got a job and my wife as well , she made more money than me and I helped with my income , shopping , gas , vacations and tax returns never took any money out of the 9000 average we received , My faith in God allowed me to trust my wife because she is a great woman but when we sold the house and now she has bought a new house , she wouldn't add my name ! We are married but I made it clear that if I am not moving back to the room and thinking about leaving. She went behind my back and raised the offer 10 thousand just one hour after my offer was made , keep In mind that selling, buying and mortgages i understand very well unlike her and was a part of my job for years , second she hands me paper work and I sign because legally without me the transactions won't go thru , So i sign ,selling the current house managed to sell it my Self for 15k more than our agents was thinking to ask for a the top price for the house and last that bothered me most is agreeing with the bank knowing that I said that I will look at the options and the next day early she can give them a decision . What am I suppose to do she wants to stay married.

I lost my friend on Thursday, she committed suicide in a public place. It was planned and those very close to her had seen it coming. Me, only about 1.5 years into the friendship, I did not and it has hit me pretty hard. I haven't been lying around the house, starving myself or doing much out of the ordinary, my mood is just a little more down than i usually is. My husband, is acting very different, he didn't know the person and seemingly does not care about her death (I don't expect him to) I unfortunately found out by way of a comment on Facebook that she had done this (like I said it was a public place and so one of the onlookers posted her information on the news story's comments) so when I came into the room my husband was in, I couldn't quite keep it together at that moment. I fell to the floor in shock and he just sat there in the chair, couldn't be bothered to get up. Yesterday, he left while I was in the shower, he left and drove out of state for no reason. I ended up taking care of the kids and the house, alone.. while dealing with my emotions, questions and thoughts. When he returned, I didn't say much. I kind of have been keeping to myself but tonight he begins just laying it all on me. Asking for a divorce, then going back on that and saying that I don't care about him, that he thinks he has cancer and is dying himself.... I just don't know why now is the time to bring this up and how to manage everything at once.

I feel that religiously I am not suppose to date until I am divorced I have asked him to try to save our marriage he's said no repeatedly Him and this woman are also no longer dealing

Also, before any one says I m a shallow person and that shouldn t matter, just let me say this; she is very slim and still is. and was endowed to start with. I loved her body. But everything is kinda loose now up top. Bottom line is, I m kinda of a boob man and they way they are now it s kind of a turn off
