So my husband pays child support never missed a paymenr. If i win the lottery can she try and get him for more child support even tho ill be the one claiming it.

And change to understand one another or at least you have to work a bit to understand each others personalities because you two are so different.

If a man is confiding in his female friend about work and says "If I were single (and he pauses after that)...and didn't have kids to go home to..." and started talking about something his job is doing that would require him to be working way more, what would you think about that? Do married men often wonder what it would be like if they were single and had no kids and be more committed to work? Also, is it weird that he started the subject by saying "if I were single..."?

My friend "Edwin" went to an exclusive NYC art gallery opening last night with his spouse "Joe." The event went very well and was a success. After the event, however, Joe was very angry and complained to Edwin that he should have stayed by his side all evening, because that is what couples are supposed to do. Edwin strongly disagreed and said that couples don't need to be glued to each other at social events, and that it's perfectly fine for them to mingle separately. Who's right?

While your once-responsible husband and father has regressed into a teenage boy--sleeping late into the day, masturbating to porn midday, doing whatever he wants and refusing to help with anything around the house or with the kids, is disrespectful and mean to you and your kids. Do you wait it out for him to snap out of it or forfeit the life you've built together and start over?

My husband is a super nice guy and is very close with his sister & dad. They talk constantly on the phone, he goes to their house or they come to our house everyday. Its great that he loves his family, but its getting to be a little too much for me. I can't help but feel like a 3rd wheel. If we make plans to go somewhere, his dad invites him self along or they call repeatedly. So, instead of my husband and i having a conversation, i get to sit there listening to him on the phone with one of them.

So my husband keep asking me almost daily to have a threesome with him and DEMANDS that it be another girl and not allow me to have another guy. I'm not comfortable at all with that because he seems like he really would like to be with another girl because he's bored with me and wants someone else. Also He refuses to let me even go near his phone or look at the computer while on social media now.. Do you think he's cheating on me?

I know I wanted to be a house wife at 13. At 16 I was never more sure of this and I told my mom my plans. But she keep telling me I would be nothing with out my high school diploma. But here I am right were I planed to be at the age of 33. A home owner, with a nice car, 3 kids, and a husband that is a certified senior at a family owned company. I mean is there just something I'm not getting why she pushed so hard.

My wife and I are on two totally different pages. She's working hard trying to pay off her debt and build up a retirement plan, I'm barely surviving trying to decide what direction my social/emotional/sexual/marital/physical/financial/medical life is going and pay her debt off with her because I like the idea of financial independence. I have a lot of time on my hands, she doesn't. She also lacks energy due to her (all my listed -ials above) not being met since she's self neglecting and not attention seeking. I have no energy too but mostly because it takes a lot of work to think about life so critically like I am. Lately my wife and I barely see each other. She's always working or self stimulating with her cell phone and I'm doing a lot of research and trying to learn about this damn capitalist, conservative, and Christian country we live in.. So we go days without really saying much to each other. She kisses me bye and hello every day but that's the extent of the relationship at this point. We are just passing time or barely here. Her debt is almost paid off (from $28k down to $4k) so we are in the home stretch, but I'm really down right now and wish it was already over. I want sex. I want love. I want fun. I want her. But until the debt is paid off we both have to work hard and waste a lot of energy. What would you do? Going on dates isn't much of an option because of money and the kids. Any other ideas are welcome.

have 2 wonderful younger children. It seems the weekdays we are taking care of kids, making dinner, helping with homework, etc... Weekends we are tired or running hem to sports. When we go out it's usualky one stays home while the other goes out with friends. When we are out we feel guilty the other parent is at home taking care of the kids. We sometimes get jealous when the other is out with friends. My wife doesnt like us going out by ourselves. She prefer we go out together, but we have kids so it's hard. Difficult to get sitters sometimes. Wondering if this is normal? Wife says she's not half at times and I know it's mainly because she wants another child and I'm on the fence. Any advice and info if this is normal? Thanks all

Before marriage sex was great. About 5 days a week. And it was something that seemed very important to him. He lost his job one day, and a day later we found out i was pregnant. This happened 4 months before our planned wedding date. Ever since there hasn't been sex. No sex on our honeymoon. He got a new job when we got back. It's been about 10 months since I had my baby and sex drive is practically dead for him. So basically ever since I got pregnant till today's date it's been about 1yr and 8 months and he's tried having sex twice in that amount of time. And it was because I kept asking why he doesn't touch me anymore. He couldn't keep his erection up more than maybe 2 min so he apologized and he stopped in the middle. I try initiating and he usually refuses to let me, but I feel like that's probably because he's ashamed , because he knows he won't be able to as he tried explaining that to me. He's not cheating. We both look the same as when we met. I'm 23 and he's 25. We have talked about it and he doesn't seem to know why he can't have sex anymore. But he says he still feels the same way about me. And yet he doesn't want to go to the doctors. What can be affecting his sexual drive? Please help because we both can't figure it out. Is there any OTC meds that he can take to help? We tried a few already and they haven't worked.

He rarely speaks to her now, but they were friends for a few years while they worked together. He has said that he would never act on his attraction to her, but that he finds her very sexually appealing. We don't live in the same city, and he lets me know whenever she texts him. To clarify: the problem is that I feel so jealous, and I don't want to. How do I get over this?

I'm 22 white live in the u.s. and recently married to an Indian guy. At home it's whatever, I can wear any old t-shirt or tank top, but going out in public it's strictly either a kurti or salwar kameez, lip gloss and most of the time a set of traditional Indian jewelry. Now, I don't mind anymore because I've gotten used to it and I find those clothes beautiful, but I'm wondering why he likes it so much. Most of my wardrobe now is the traditional clothes and I never even used to wear jewelry or much make up.I suppose it's a cultural thing but it is still an interesting thing to me

So ive been with my husband for ten years now and im starting to think something is off. Okay so here goes nothing, he has repeatedly watched "twerk videos" DURING sex w me. I voice to him each time that him doing this makes me insecure and turned off. I even have got mad. Well, I thought that was bad until last night during sex he turned on a video of strippers butt naked in the club. Im talking vaginas out, **** jiggling, and a scene where two girls are having a three some with a guy in the vip room. He knew I was getting upset he kept saying I was having an attitude and being uptight. I saw him replay the video three times. He is starting to make me hate sex. He knows I get offended he wasn't always this way, I used to b enough. This wasnt who I fell for. What is going on w him? Should I call it quits?-details good advice please

Im sick of this my husband keeps watching twerk videos during sex w me. He knows it bothers me but he will sneak and turn twerk videos on and says im being to uptight. Than tonight he watched a porn video three times in a row w me. Strippers in a nude club showing there vaginas and ***! He makes me feel sp ugly and idk why he is doing this to me! He see nothing wrong w his behavior. Plz help. I give up. What os his problem?

I'm really worried that our three kids will be pushed to grow up faster and having to apply life lessons much earlier on. It could effect them emotionally. I'll be the only adult around. There will be less vacations, dining out, less treats, the middle and oldest will have to learn riding the public bus alone. Their dad will communicate with us through video chat and phone. We might go on vacation to this foreign country during school breaks. This is such an excellent job offering. I've spoken to parents who had a family member work overseas for a couple of years. They said that their children weren't used to it at first, but eventually adapted. By the time that parent comes back, it was very noticeable that some of them are "different". They've gotten used to the environment being harder on them sometimes, etc.

I'm a girl, nearly 25 and I don't want to get married. Ever. But everyone tells me that at some point I'll change my mind. Of course, like so many girls (in the South, especially) I was taught that your wedding day is one of the happiest days of your life and there's no greater gift than a successful marriage and a house full of children. That seems to be the ideal for so many people, but to me it sounds like a glorified prison. I can't stand being with one person for more than a few years. And the thought of having to obey a husband, making sure he gives me permission to do something because, again I live in the South and some traditions never die. Watching my life go by as I feel obligations to stay for kids...i can't stand even thinking about it. But my parents and everyone else keeps telling me that that is the ultimate happiness for every woman, but I don't think I believe that. I dunno. Should I give in if the opportunity ever comes along? I know its right for some people, but I am so stuck in between that I don't know what to do.
