responded very quickly, "I'd love to go!" because I knew that my husband wouldn't mind. I already feel self conscious around our pastor because he's a psychologist also. He turned and walked away then turned back around and said, "I didn't mean just you, I meant all of you." I was very embarrassed by this because I took it to mean he thought I was selfishly accepting and that I must have thought he was only inviting ME. However, I knew he was inviting my whole family. I awkwardly smiled and said, "Sure! Yeah!" I don't know why it embarrassed me so badly. But it struck a nerve and I want to find out what it is that is bugging me. Also, why did he need to clarify that it wasn't just me? Why would I think I was the only one being invited when he asked if WE wanted to go eat? Sigh.

He said what did you put in this? I told him and he said well I don't taste those things and I don't see them. It taste too sweet. HE NEVER EVEN SAID I APPRECIATE IT.

Seriously?

Man= boyfriend from another state. Dating for 2 years.

I'm a female and almost 25-years-old and as I approach true adulthood, I just don't want to get married. Everyone I knew growing up and everyone else I know my own age is married or engaged. I can get a relationship easy enough, but as I watch these other couples that are already married struggle to keep their eyes and thoughts on their spouse the less I want to get married. Human beings are not manogmous, and it shows. I'm not against marriage, I think if two people want to be together for the right reasons it's fine. But divorce is also understandable. I feel so pressured to find someone and get married ASAP because everyone is telling me that I am losing time and that if I dont I will be alone and miserable. I never believed a spouse was rhe answer to all of life's problems or that someone else should "complete me." None of this has anything to do with making a statement or trying to make a point for the sake of feminism, etc etc. I just don't think it's for me but at the same time I feel like if I dont I will making a huge mistake. I'm so confused. It's more than just getting married or not, it's a life decision that could affect my entire existence, apparently. And everyone tells me when the right person comes around I'll know. I've been madly in love with every person I ever dated and they all lasted for at least a year at the very least. At the end of the day, I wouldn't marry anyone because I don't want to learn to hate someone. Does anyone have advice?

I don't know exactly how long they've been together but I know it's at least 2 years. I've seen the texts. He says things to her like: "I can't keep doing this to her" (me) "You're amazing but what we're doing is wrong." "You deserve so much more than I can give you. There's a whole world out there for you." "Your love is a gift. I cherish every moment with you." "I enjoy every second with you but then I feel guilty after." "I'm going to spend the rest of my life making it up to her (me) and she won't even know why." HA! Then she'll pretty much beg him not to leave her. She'll tell him that she's in love with him, he means the world to her, she knows it's not forever but she's not ready to let him go, and if it feels so good how can he let her go? He has told her that he loves her and that she's an angel and he's never felt a connection like this before in his life. Wtf. My husband and are in our early 50s. I don't know exactly how old this girl is but she must be much younger than us because my husband has said that he'll be in a wheelchair by the time she's 40. I've known about the affair for close to a year now but I can't say anything. I can look past it for our family. Especially because it seems like he's trying to break up with her. If it weren't for her begging him to stay, I know he'd walk away from her. Why does he let her change his mind? Why can't he just let her go for good?

husband of being controlling. Is this woman inclined to have an affair with a man who makes more money or offers her more disposable cash?

If you married a man with no kids and you had kids, would you stop supporting your kids and let your new husband take care of you all? If your husband was supporting you all and you low key just didn't want to do anything but stay home, would you be entitled to financial decisions in the home? You and your husband have a baby together and your husband is off half a month at a time, would you still feel the need to be a stay at home mom when your husband is off that much or would you go to work part time or work on your education part time while he's home? If you wanted to go to school full time with 2 kids at home and one source of income, would you be willing to work part time in addition to that to help your family with extra expenses? Or would you let your husband carry that weight on his own? If your husband said they don't want to work a job they're not happy with while you supported them, would you feel like they were being selfish? I need to know if I am naive, or if I've gotten a **** deal in my marriage. I got a consultation today and starting divorce. My heart still loves her but I know she's not what I need.

Since my husband mom passed 3 months ago, he became so lazy, I understand depression, I have lost both of my parents, but this is past this. I attempted to talk to him about it ans nothing is changing, I am sick of doing it all, working, cleaning, cooking, caring for the kids, while he juat plays on his PS4, Would it be wrong of me to change the wifi password and not tell him, may be he get up and do something, when he does not have internet?

It seems to me marriage is really just a declaration of mutual dependency. But the only reason to want deptendency from the opposite sex is sex. You can get love, companionship, caregiving, protection, and support from anyone now in this social network world, so the ONLY reason to get married is to have monogamous sex. Change my mind.

Is it best to not argue with them and just secretly plan your departure. I'm not happy

My wife and I are separated but still live together. My wife has been spending a lot of time with a friend of hers from college. My friend who is a pizza delivery guy part time called me and said my wife was at an apartment and answered. My friend said she was in a guys shirt. They guy came amd paid he was wearing s robe and was wrapped in a blanket. I asked around and the guynshes hooking up with has leukemia and my wife has been dating him. How do I deal with this?

So I'm 22 year old married woman, and I'm a virgin. I could've had sex by now but I've got terrible self esteem issues. Me and my wife have been married for about a year and a half now and we haven't had sex yet, she hasn't been pressuring me or anything but i do want to lose it to her. I just feel like I'm disgusting to look at and that when we do finally do it she'll not want me anymore and leave or that I'll be so awkward and not know what I'm doing and that I'll be horrible at it. I should probably add that we're polyamorous and have a boyfriend as well, i haven't banged him either. I talked to her about it the other day and she said that maybe i should try talking to him about it and lose it you him, we're getting him a wedding band soon so he'll be equal with us since we both love him and i feel the same way towards him as i do her. That I'll **** it all up, and if i decide to get sexual with him that he'll want to leave as well. So i don't know what i should do, should i just keep things the way they are or face my fears and try? I want to get dolled up and surprise them but they might reject me and i don't know if i can risk ruining what we have. Help?

We've been married for 17 years no kids. I still get butterflies when I see her. We're both 42. I like to hold her hands and talk to her for hours. We're very passionate and make love everywhere in the house when we come home from work. We also have a lot of shower sex. Sorry if that grossed you out lol. Sometimes I stare into her eyes and we just have a staring contest. We're very competitive. We don't want kids but I'm worried that our romantic love for each other will burnout someday. Should we have kids? Any advice

If a married couple get divorced and have children together, the person who keeps the children will get child support from the other one. I don't know if this also applies to dogs 🐶, cats 🐈 , cows 🐄 🐮, pigs 🐖 🐷, goats 🐐. Does one of the couple is forced by law to pay dog support if the other person is able to keep all the 🐕 🐕 🐕? My friends told me that they have to, but I'm not sure.

My husband and I were married three weeks ago. The morning we were due to fly to Bali for our Honeymoon I went into labour with our first child. My husband acted as though his life depended on our Honeymoon going ahead but couldn't understand that my going into labour early was not my fault. We ended up having a massive argument at the Hospital where the staff told him that if he didn't leave they would call the Police. My husband stormed out. Thinking he would return when he had calmed down I delivered our healthy baby girl later that night. Wondering why I hadn't heard from him I tried several times to ring him but my calls went unanswered. The next day he rings me from Bali and tells me that he took his friend Dave with him.Needless to say I broke down in tears devistated.Not only is Dave gay but I hate the guy which made things even worse. When my husband returned I asked him where Dave had slept and he didn't hold back at telling me they both shared the same bed and even had a spa and massage together at the resorting . They both clearly took advantage of everything that I had paid for and booked.I try not to think about what may have happened when they were in bed together and I honestly don't want to know but am I making a big thing out of nothing or am I right to feel as though my heart has been ripped apart from his selfishness ? I honestly feel as though I want a Divorce after only being married for three weeks and two days.

Recently my mom "accidentally " sent a txt message to my wife (meant for my aunt) saying how much she dislikes my wife. My wife is very upset by this. I told her I don't care what my mother thinks and neither should she. Some background, my mother is insane, I moved out of her house at 24 by grabbing as much of my stuff as I could in one go because she was a narcissistic abuser who loved to keep me beat down. She threatened to have me arrested if I didn't return. I had done nothingvwrong, of corse so i told jer to shove it. I only see her because my wife insists I try to have a relationship. My wife is very upset by this recent revelation, but I honestly couldn't care less about my mother's feelings but I hate seeing my wife upset. How do I help her?

Married years back. Got divorced after a year together due to him being a compulsive liar & suspected narc. Went into therapy because I doubted myself and if things were like what he called "all in my head". He got remarried 2 months after the divorce was finalized. His wife is pregnant and due to give birth. At the time of the divorce he did not want to return many of my things which I asked for so I just wrote it off as a loss. Also made sure all communications was in text so I have proof. Has been 2 years since we parted ways and no contact. However, I recently received mail from him of old photos, which did not mean anything to me but something to him. Written on the letter was his alias name and an old address. I had a laugh wondering why he even bothered posting them to me and chucked it in the bin. Hope this gives anyone else in the same situation as I was 2 years ago a little bit of hope.
