My husband wants kids. I don't. I never have. We would have broken up more than 10 years ago if I said I wasn't having kids. I almost killed myself when I thought I was pregnant, and having kids to me is worse than losing a limb. I thought MAYBE I would want kids one day, but the idea is still worse than death. I held it off for as long as I could. I know it's wrong, but I always thought I would hold it off and if he didn't change his mind, I would kill myself without saying a word. We have the best relationship I've ever heard of other than that, and we are perfect matches who've lived happily for as long as we've been together. I know there's a potential for him living without kids, but I think it's more likely that we would divorce. I can't imagine not having him, and the days where I can happily live without kids are coming to an end. I'd rather be dead than miserable. I don't know if I should ask if he'd be fine without it and try to work it out with the possibility of losing him, or just kill myself without a word. I don't want to die before 40, but what's the point if I'm living extremely unhappily with someone who makes me happy?

My husband suffers from depression and anxiety. He will get in what we call "funks" and it is hard to get him out. I am in school full-time, work part-time, and am going through cancer treatments right now. He doesn't help around the house and it all falls to me. I would get angry about it and yell at him because he wouldn't listen any other way. I would keep a lot of it inside and let it all loose at once. This caused him to cheat on me because he felt berated and unappreciated. I know that I shouldn't keep things in and yell at him, but I don't think that's a reason to cheat. I cried when it happened and now I just feel numb. Is this normal?

My wife said she's been diagnosed with depression she already knew she had it. I always stand by her make sure she's ok I always give her a hug whenever she's upset or if she just wants one she's been wanting them a lot lately. Most nights she cries herself to sleep. How can I comfort her ?

Me and my wife have been married for a month I have 2 kids from my first marriage they're older than her I have grandkids. I'm 71 she's 26 but I'm a famous rock star. Should we have a baby ? Would it be possible ?

I think my ex wife is turning my kids against me. They don't trust me like they used to. They think I abandoned them. I'm pretty sure she's behind this. She has always been vile.

I miss my husband. These days he works everyday because it's the holidays. It's peak season. But even before peak season it was the same. I'm at home taking care of our newborn. I have no help. I cook and clean since I don't have a job yet. i spend time with my first child when he comes back from school. that's about all the socializing I do. or talk to my mother on the phone. My husband is always finding a problem with me. The other day he had a problem with me looking at someone else baby while we were at a restaurant. when he comes back from work it is just enough time for him to eat watch tv and go to sleep around 10:30. All I ask is for him to talk to me. Turn the sports channel off sometimes and sit by me, or be intimate with me. He says that I nag him all the time, that I am selfish because I want to have sex when he is tired. but it is too much to ask to spend time with us? yesterday I complained about not seeing him enough he brought a dvd for the whole family to watch but then focused on his phone and fell asleep. when we talked to him he said he could multitask. But as soon as he sits in front of his sports channel on video game he doesn't sleep anymore. I'm going crazy asking just for some time together. Even 30mins of talking but I cannot even get that. When he wants to have sex and he is tired he will take a energy drink. But whenever I initiate he turns me down or makes me jump through hoops just to get down to the business. What can I do to fix things.

My husband wants to move across the state, but I really don't want to. He already has the house picked out and says the paperwork is already done. I don't see how he can do this, though, because our house is in both our names so surely he can't do that without my permission? Is there some way to stop this, legally?

My husbands ex called him today. Not to discuss his kid but to get information about me. She asked if he thought we were in it for the long haul and if we are "really serious" about each other, UM HELLO, we've been living together two years and married for a year so I'm pretty sure it's obvious that it is serious. Asked what my relationship was like with his mom and dad because his parents hated her and love me. She said she can't understand how I am so close to my in laws. She keeps grilling him about me altogether and I'm fed up. She's admitted she is still in love with him but I feel the need to put her in her place. Am I wrong for being irritated that she is asking him?

She is sending photos of herself and her other kids. His child was not in the photo. I feel it's inappropriate. If it was pics of just her other kids it would be weird but ok in my eyes. It's strange to me that she had to send one with her in it and his daughter was not in it. I feel like she's just trying to send him pics of her as she has admitted she is still in love with him.

I mean most married couples have known and been friends with each other since they were children are very small compared to the ones who have known and been friends with each other as either teenagers or adults. It's so rare that I actually haven't known a single married couple who were childhood friends, while I have known married couples who met as either teenagers or adults.

My wife and I had her best female friend over to use our hot tub last night. My wife and I changed in the main bathroom. While her friend changed in our bedroom. After about 2 hours we started to get out. My wife's friend went in first wrapped in her towel. I quickly removed my suit and wrapped myself in my towel and went in about a min or two later. The bathroom is first going down the hallway, with our bedroom around a corner at the end of the hall. As I approached the bathroom, I could see the door was open about a 6 inches and the light was out. So I start to enter the bathroom and turn on the light. As I do, my wife's friend turns around in shock while saying she is in there. She was completely naked and i would find out later was getting ready to have a shower. I jumped, startled by her presence. I start apologizing profusely and run out of the bathroom as fast as I can while closing the door and head into our bedroom to get dressed. Once dressed I go wait outside the now closed bathroom door for her friend to get done. She finishes her shower and exits now dressed. She sees me and her face turns beet red as does mine I'm sure. I start apologizing again, saying how the door was open and the light wasn't on. And she says she is sorry for not turning on the light and at least closing the door. Now we don't know if I should tell my wife what happened since I'm her husband or if she should since she is her best friend. Or should we tell her together.

My husband makes me feel terrible. He says insulting things regarding the way I look and compares my physical appearance to his exes in a terrible manner as if I don't measure up to them. He apologizes and keeps doing it and says it's a mistake. I do not feel loved by him. I'm tired of all of my emotional needs being ignored and continually neglected by him. I'm tired of my feelings, thoughts and opinions being unheard. I am tired of feeling like I'm talking to a brick wall. I'm tired of feeling unappreciated, not valued, unloved or unwanted. I want to feel loved and appreciated. I want to be with someone who makes me feel special and beautiful.

Adrian is a great man but he isn't my husband. My husband is a great man as well, with one thing I can't appreciative him......You neglect me.... Ii don't want to think about Adrian, pretend I haven't hut him. It's how I cope with hurting people.

My husband and I have been married for two years and before our relationship he was married and had a child with his ex. We have been together longer than they were at this point. She is in a new relationship but is still stuck on my husband. Since November, she has demanded that my husband talk to her and apologize sincerely for things that happened while they were together. He has apologized four times. This woman has had four extensive, private conversations with my husband that lasted 3 hours, 1 hour, 45 minutes and 30 minutes. Three were phone calls that took place while I was at work and one was in person while I sat in the car. I feel like at this point it s becoming a problem especially since I got a brief 5 minute synopsis from my husband on what happened during the conversations and he fails to elaborate at all. He just tells me "It was a pointless conversation which is not worth discussing". Obviously red flags are there. This is my 2nd marriage and I will not be played for a fool. I ve told him my feelings and all he says is he has to do what s best for his kid. I get that but why does there need to be four conversations in less than a month about the same thing? Am I overreacting? Furthermore, how do I get this under control before something bigger comes of it? Thanks in advance for any advice on the matter.

My ex fiance and I were together for 4 years. He proposed after 3 years together and it took alot of discussions and I felt, pushing, to get there. Several times he stated he did not feel ready and we did fight due to personality clashes and unmet relationship expectations and he would bring them up alot. I cannot help but feel hurt as 1 year and 2 months after he first put up a photo with his new girlfriend they posted they were engaged and they are married now. Why did it take him 3 years to propose to me, yet 1.5 years with her?

I haven't eaten all day and now my mom is making me dry my hair before I get food. And my dad who doesn't agree with it, in attempt to keep his dying marriage is blocking the food and being over dramatic in attempt to keep his wife

If she decides to divorce?

My wife has to go in for heart surgery on Tuesday she's really afraid of hospitals. She's not worried about the surgery she's just worried about before and after. She's worried about what all the doctors are gonna do to her. What doesn't seem to hurt to other people does to her. She hates needles she's scared of getting IV's every time she gets one she holds on to me or her brother and cries. They'll have to remove her IUD she didn't do so well when they put it in I don't see how she'll do getting it out when they put it in she wouldn't stop screaming. She really hates getting the flu test since she's already had it they might not test her for it but with her doctors you never know she hates it because she says it feels like a needle poking through her nose she cries at that too. Also she's scared of staying over night last time she did some nurse came in the middle of the night poking her she woke up screaming in terror. She said if we're not allowed to stay over night with her then she's not staying even though she has too. Maybe some people can sleep through that and not feel it but she can't. She really hopes they'll let me or someone stay with her. She's gonna tell the doctors not to come in while she's sleeping and poke her again. Her pain is so high tolerate the only thing she can really feel is needles other than that nothing else really bothers her if she gets hurt. How can I help her feel better ?

My boyfriend recently broke up with me because he 'wasn't ready' and 'didn't feel he was going to fall in love with me' etc. Despite his actions showing the complete opposite. His divorce will be finalised in just under a week and I was wondering if maybe it just takes longer to fall in love after you've had a toxic marriage or if maybe the divorce being finalised is messing with his head. We were together for around 3 months and while I was having those feelings for him, I hadn't said so as I didn't want him to feel pressured and I was trying to be understanding and allow him to take things slowly. We are still in touch and talking every day. I'm just trying to decide whether I stick around and see what happens or if I just cut it off now. I'm scared to cut it off in case he might come around in time. Thoughts?

A friend recently posed this question to me; If you don't have a partner by a certain age, would you have kids on your own? I answered her, definitely not! I know that if I were with a partner and in love that I would want nothing more than to have their children and raise them together and witness what a wonderful father they would be while navigating the trails and tribulations of parenthood together, it would bring me endless joy. However should I not have a partner I have no desire to have or raise children on my own. Not because it would be too difficult or anything but just because the desire for me is to create something that is both of us because we love eachother. What are your thoughts on this? Does this seem valid or does it seem if I don't want kids on my own that I don't really want them at all? It just doesn't seem that black and white to me.

Husband works at the usps. Since it's december they sometimes go to work earlier than usual. This month they also work on Sundays. he was put on the schedule for this Sunday. Usually on Sunday I cook a big breakfast for the whole family. and we eat together. This Sunday morning I woke up and went to sit in the living room on my phone since the kids are still asleep. he got ready and came down to turn on the tv. he went to get himself his usual breakfast before work. I didn't offer to make anything because he usually make himself something with an extra boost of caffeine for work so I assumed he would do just that. And he did. later I get up and make myself breakfast. He comes in and complain that I did not make him anything. I told him I just saw him eat. he replies that he went to eat because I did not offer him anything. His whole mood changed after that. He hasn't said anything to me. If I bring it up he will say that I assumed he was upset over it when it was not the case. but he just left for work and has not said a word to me. Do you think me not getting breakfast for him warrants him giving me the silent treatment
