if you were the parent what would you suggest? I been told her to find a better paying job and to quit that penny to nickel job. she has a degree in communications but she's been subbing for 3 years in our small city subs get paid a little under 1 thousand dollars a month and that's IF they are able to work everyday, but she doen't even get called in everyday so sometimes she gets between 800-900 a month. I told her to put that money into paying off her student loans and that's what she's been doing. but the problem is she's been moaning about barely having money for food and her appearance looks very messy, she wears the same clothes everyday. her goal is to be a writer but she won't be able to afford food or clothes with that job either. I suggested she just do a job she might not be passionate about but that makes at least 50k so she can keep up her appearances and also have a full fridge of food.

We've been hearing a lot of people getting out of love breaking up after long time so we know that love can fade over time but how to keep the love going on any tips from someone who's been with a partner for so long and love still exist and grows more ?

I did some research online and I keep getting the same answers over and over and they aren't helpful. My boyfriend is planning on proposing this summer. He is in the marines with a nice paying job and a place to stay. I really want to marry him, but I keep getting negative feedback from people I tell. I know other young couple relationships have worked before, and I know ours could work as well. I just want some extra information. Thank you!

My wife and I have been married for 10 years. Yesterday, she told me someone ask her on a date and she accepted. Today, she was asking about what to wear.... Just feels strange.....

My husband and I have been separated for years but he refuses to sign divorce papers. I ve been with my boyfriend for 3 years and I m pregnant. I ve told my ex this in hopes he will finally sign papers. Now he s threatening to take the baby since we are still married even though the father will be signing the birth certificate. Could this *** actually ask for visitation to a kid that isn t even his?

My husband calls me stupid almost on a daily basis. I say,"Don't talk to me like that." He replies with,"Stop being stupid." Just now, he blew up on me saying that I'm so stupid and he's never met such an idiot. He said that's why I don't have friends and nobody likes me because I'm stupid. I've been wanting a baby and he was in agreement. But he said just now that he doesn't want to have a baby with me because I'm very stupid and I'll mess the kid up. I'm hurt but at the same time, maybe I AM that stupid. How do I know which one it is? How do I know if he's being verbally abusive or just speaking the truth?

I recently got married and for all intents and purposes I m very happy with my husband. We ve never argued, we always talk and we re always together. But what s been bothering me is that once in awhile I think of my ex. I was with my ex on and off again for a little over 5 years. The only minor complaint I have in my marriage is the lack of a sex life. We ve had sex only a few times since getting married. What s worse is that I spoke to my ex recently and the words "I love you" blurted out suddenly leaving both of us feeling ackward. My feelings seem to get jumbled up everytime there is a long gap in intimacy with my husband. I thought about couple counseling but I want to work things out between us before that. I haven t told him of my recent communication with my ex.

My husband is financially irresponsible. We're both in our early 30s. I'm currently pregnant due in a wk and he's been the only one working and in charge of paying bills. Every bill gets paid late every single month. We're always 1 day away from getting evicted, car insurance always pending cancellation, every bill gets on payment arrangements every month no matter how much planning and reminding I do. I've suggested I take over paying the bills he agreed but hasn't let me step up and take charge of it. So every month when rent is due I go into panic because I know he's not going to pay it on time. He pays so many late fees constantly. He works 2 jobs and I stay home with our 1 yr old so he doesn't have to pay daycare until after pregnancy I will go back to working. We've had one car repoed because of him a yr ago and I got us another car which he still pays late. I'm planning on going back to work 2 wks after my c section without proper healing time because he's stressing me out so much I feel I have no other choice now. I won't be able to bond with our new baby but I can't live in panic every month. I'm considering separating from him and getting my own place and car and just taking a long break away from him because he stress me out so much not being responsible. Any advice or should I just separate for a while?

Or does it mean they're torn between their side and their spouse?

I am a U.S. citizen and my Nikkah(Islamic marriage contract) will be sometime this year in Pakistan. Although, My fiancee and I have agreed to do only the Nikkah, I would like to know if he can insist on doing a Ruksati (when the bride goes to live with her husband after nikkah) afterwards and if I refuse, can he force me?What are ways to protect my self? Thanks in advance.

My wife and I want to retire we have saved up a nice nest egg. A few years ago my mother in law moved in because she could not live on her own Parkinson's issues. Anyways my wife did all the caregiving tasks and the dirty work changing pee bags and diapers. A year ago I officially retired and wanted to put the house up for sale and move to Nevada cheaper cost of living. My wife says no my mom can't move and she is set up in our currant house. Fast forward 2 months ago my wife severely injured her wrist and back moving her and we both realized we can't keep doing this she needs more advanced care/help so we put her into a nursing home. My wife goes over every few days but I just stopped going. I desperately want to sell the house we are in now while the real estate market is booming we live north of Seattle my wife says no I won't leave while my mother is in a nursibg home here because of her doctors appointments. How should we handle I don't think she lives longer then 3 years and my son is already in Nevada with a grand baby I can't see because of this ball and chain around me. Should I just sell the house go and my wife rents a room until her mother finally dies or how can we handle this I am fed up with this elderly women controlling and ruining my life

Is that why strangers of both genders are always ready to call husbands " pigs" " bastards " " disgusting " etc yet they never ever use those words to describe a wife ?

Please help translate Spanish to English , husband has secrets wide and Child and I can't understand any of their love notes please help !!!

This is the last place that I would typically come to ask for this kind of advice, but right now, it's my only option. There is no one I could ask in person, without confiding in them that I am actually cheating on my wife. Anyways, I am a 29 year old woman. I am well accomplished and educated. I make really good money as a PA, own a condo, drive a very nice car, etc. I am also very nice, friendly, considerate, and kind. About 8 months ago, I met this really beautiful girl. She was just as accomplished, educated, and a good person as I am, and worked as an accountant at a major bank. Shortly after, I began an intimate relationship with her. My wife has literally no idea what is going on. I don't know how to tell, or even if I should tell her. I am not proud of myself, whatsoever. I have a great, loving, intelligent, beautifil wife, who I cherish very much. How do I tell her this without her getting too angry at me or even divorcing me? Should I tell her everything? Like the fact that I allowed the woman into our home? The fact that I brought her a pair of $2,000 earrings? The fact that I lied and told her that I was going out of town for a family trip, but was really going to spend time with this other woman? If I want to save our marriage, should I tell her every little detail?

My husband is the hardest man to get along with. It doesn't matter what I do, he is so angry at me. He's always telling me he doesn't need me and he can take care of himself. He's nice maybe a 1/2 day a month and the rest of the time, he belittles and insults me. He's constantly putting me down when no one is around. I'm a successful person. I have a good job and am actually getting a much better one soon, which I think he's jealous of, because he's always saying all he is is a sewer man that doesn't make any money. Yes, I know it sounds obvious I should leave since this has been occurring for a long time, but I don't want to share custody with this man. I think he will try to take me to the cleaners and his family has money, so they will help him do that. He's a liar, but everyone thinks he's honest and a good family man. He's not. He calls me selfish, when all I do is focus on our family, try to support us the best way I can, and do everything possible to make sure we have what we need. He comes home, he does make dinner, but right after, every night, locks himself in his room to watch YouTube or goes fishing. He never wants to hang out or asks how our day is. He just gives me looks and stares at his phone. He makes me feel like I'm stuck.

Let's say y'all dating for a month is it normal to have sex soon or is that disrespecting your partner intimidates

Our marriage.
