First off I want to say that I'm not proud of this, but it's just the way it is for me... I've been married to my husband for 8 years, we're both 34. I love him very much. We met at a wedding (we're Iraqi Christians) and I care deeply for him, and he has always been the most amazing friend in my life. But lately I've been asking myself if I am really truly in love with him. This has been going on for a while but I've been doing my best to try and ignore it, however it's eating me alive inside these days. So way before we were married I had an on and off relationship with a guy I knew from my family's neighborhood. He was my type, black, fit, and a good height with a take no sh*t type of attitude. Me and him were on and off for a year and a half, and let me tell you it was the most mind blowing, amazing, painful (temporarily) and pleasurable sex I ever had, and he was huge. I miss that. I can't get excited when I look at my husband, only sometimes. And I wouldn't say I'm satisfied as a woman should be. But I still love him it's just hard to be with him. I know it sounds crazy, but I don't want to see him with another, yet I still want to venture out and find my old flame or another black man who has the same features as him and date him. I can't get these fantasies out of my head and it can sometimes last all day and night. How can I get rid of this and get to living a normal happily married life with my husband? Please has anyone gone through something similar?

She is not blood family and actually she is my Godmother. She is 24 years older then me but we are in love. She is divorced so it is not adultery or anything in fact before we started dating we had only seen each other twice since she and my uncle divorced when I was 12 in 2002. She was married to my uncle for 14 years. We love each other and would have children together but she is too old to. I am 27 years old now and ready to marry her. We have been engaged since April. The family us upset as they hadn't had anything to do with her since the divorce other then a cordial hello at two events for the kids. However, I feel like I am being controlled and her parents are okay with it. I'll be a step-father to my two cousins which I think is cool. We even wrote to the Dr. Phil Show though we have not heard back. So how can I get my family to accept that I want to marry my uncle's ex-wife? This is a serious question and not something I am making up. Marking private for her privacy as we share an account (we are living together).

I have an fwb we will call Daniel. I'm into very rapey, BDSM kind of sex. At first, Daniel delivered in this respect. Our sex was amazing. He was definitely the best I had ever had. However, recently he has been getting progressively less degrading and aggressive. I told him that he could be more degrading and ****, and he was like, "Oh yeah, of course," then he was the least degrading and most vanilla he has ever been. The time we had sex before this, he tried to hold my hand which was strange. I don't think Daniel is falling for me, because if he was he'd want to hang out, you know, to not just have sex. So, I'm not really sure why Daniel isn't properly degrading me as I ask. It's incredibly annoying for me. Does anyone have any advice on how to make Daniel be aggressive again? He's also definitely into BDSM, he has an obvious dark side and has expressed interest in tying me up.

My boyfriend is a muslim,and he never had problem about doing sex with me and even seducing me to do it,but recently he said he doesnt want more sex before marriage and how bad he feels. But our marriage implies a long process since he has no visa and its not guaranteed my country allow us to marry. I don't see any reason to stay without sex with the person you love and desire so much. What I should do about this?

9 months ago I ended a relationship with a man I was engaged to. We were together for 6 years but he changed so much into someone I wasn't remotely attracted to anymore. For this very reason I'm still upset. At the time I felt numb & no love or attraction for him at all. In fact, my mind was straying from our relationship & I was having thoughts about other men. I also found my (now ex) fiancé was very disloyal especially when we would argue. He would slate me to my own family, I'm a very reserved person so being told our small personal disagreements were shared with various people to make me look like a bad person, it was hurtful. Not to mention the drugs he was consuming each week which drastically impacted our relationship. I knew he would never get help for this no matter how hard I pushed him. When I broke up with him it was hardly upsetting for me. I was tired of the same cycles. But he was heart broken. A month later I find out he is starting a family with someone new (so much for being heart broken). I felt very hurt & now I often still cry about what should have been. I don't understand why I feel this way. I was so sure there wouldn't be a future but only now do I feel incredibly betrayed and hurt.

My hubby recently blocked this pretty young lady off of his Facebook page but the only thing he have two and she's only blocked from one.

I have a friend who made me feel uncomfortable around my wife, he was calling her pretty and saying how lucky I was to have her. Well I kept it to myself trusting my wife l, but 2 months later her phone alarm starts to ring I go to shut it off and their are 3 texts from him. So curiously I looked and they have been texting for the last 2 months him flirting with her saying he's thinking about doing dirty things to her and how she can do better then me and how beautiful she is and that he misses her. But she would redirect the conversation when he did those things to other non flirty topics l, but I had no idea they were texting in the first place so should I keep him as a friend and should I be worried about my wife?

20 years ,marriage and suddenly young man appears in my sad life .Itold my husband about him to help me to stop this feeling and chang his rough way that he treat me . But my husband behave badly with me . Ientered in deep relation withthat young man.but I am sad at every time I leave him . And he always ask me about times of sex relation with my husband . Do I need psychotherapy?

He writes her at 10 in the afternoon and she writes him back at 9pm to 11pm at night. It makes me uncomfortable should it? He is a good man and I don t think he will cheat but what is she doing?

Consider this scenario. Your wife wants to quit smoking and she wants you to quit smoking too. Saying she wants to make it a « team effort ». You said that you have no intention to quit smoking. If she wants to quit, good for he, but you won't be a part of it. She says that you're selfish and you don't support her. The way you see it. You think that she wants to run your life. She has no right to tell what to do. She's not your boss.

I cant explain it, but Im jealous of friends my age that have kids. Bottom line is, I want to become a mother when I am established in my nursing career, and when I can provide everything to my child with no struggle. But I don t want a baby now. Seeing my friends with their kids only reminds me how long I have to wait before I really start thinking about a family. Ive been with my fiancé for 5 years and recently got engaged. He wants children in the future too, when he s set in his career. We definitely have a plan but I still get jealous of my friends because a representation of what I want in life is displayed to me on a daily basis. So is this type of jealousy normal? Also, please dont think that Im in a rush for a child. I dont want a baby now because Im too busy working on my life. I just wanted to know if this kind of thing is normal for 19 year olds to experience?
