The children are 6 months and 2 1/2 years old boys.

My wife and I have one of the most romantic relationships ever. I always tell her how special she is, I hold on to her when we sleep and we're always there for each other. We've been married 3 months and wanna start trying to have a baby. But when we have the kid how do we balance time as parents and as a couple? My nephew is glued to his parents. I wanna be able to have be intimate with my wife but also obviously raise kids

Very complicated and long story. Short version: I've known this guy for 3 years. We've been friends for 2 years. We used to work together, he was my boss. We both no longer work there or together anymore. For the first several months of knowing him, I was attracted to him, but couldn't stand him. He knew how to push my buttons. 2 years ago, he started growing on me a bit and I developed feelings for him that eventually grew as we got closer and I fell in love with him. He's happily married and has a family. I've always respected that. I love his wife and kids and we get along well, although I wouldn't call his wife my friend or anything. She's been there for me numerous times and I am grateful for her, but naturally jealous of her. Also, she's way too graceful to say anything about it if my friendship with her husband, bothered her. Anyways, towards the end of us working together, he was very flirty. He showed favoritism towards me, joked around with me. I remember one time we were a couple feet from each other and made eye contact and just stared into each other's eyes until I finally said "what?" and he broke eye contact. Another time, he was looking at a clipboard and I tried to look over it to see what he was reading and he playfully tapped me on the nose with the back of his pen. A lot has happened in 2 years, but nothing too crazy and nothing inappropriate. I don't have a car, so he's given me rides home from my job (which is about a minute from his job) numerous times and we're always alone. We talk and talk and never have an awkward silence. He's opened up to me about so much and vice versa and he's even mentioned a money issue he was having with his wife, recently. I got engaged a few months ago and he's never acknowledged it. He's looked at my engagement ring several times and not said a word. Whenever I bring up my fiance, he almost seems to have this tone that expresses not wanting to discuss my fiance. They have been around each other a few times and they get along seemingly, but they both don't like the other being brought up in conversation. The other day, we were at church and my friend was looking for somebody, smiled when he saw me and put his hand up to say hello. I keep thinking he was looking for me. Do you think he ever thinks of me? I know nothing would never happen and I'm okay with that. He's a very good guy with morals and would never wish to sin or do his wife and family wrong. I never want to hurt his family or my fiance.

I'll just move it back!

Do you stay with your partner with your mind constantly on your soulmate? Thinking bout what could of been if only you knew this individual was your soulmate before. Who wants to go the rest of their lives feeling unhappy an feeling sorry for themselves? Not me so I'd rather not be with my wife if I can't love her the way I love my soulmate because that ain't fair to her because she too deserves to find her soulmate who'll love her in the way she deserves to be loved.

I keep reading posts about how the grass is NEVER greener on the other side, but something has to be better than being married to a man who doesn't care about me. I do an amazing job at hiding my depression from my children. I think they would be better off with two happier parents than two miserable ones. Ana, I have communicated up the ying-yang!

The first girl I dated for three and a half months, and the second girl I dated for five months. Me and the second girl broke up just last week & now I'm wondering what I should do. I've been trying to match with girls on tinder, but I don't know if that's the smart thing to do. I guess I think talking to someone new will help me with the pain, but I think maybe it's too soon. Any advice?

OK, so I've been with my boyfriend for almost 9 years now. So practically all of my early 20's. (I'm not 30 yet) Anyway, he is a great guy, considerate and I do love him dearly. However, I feel like I am not doing much these days. Like he just got his feet together and is working 2 jobs like he wanted to make money and do what he loves which is handicapping. (Horses) anyway, we moved from the city to a rural town and there is nothing to do up here really, except for work..am I wrong for feeling this way? I feel guilty but i also don't want to look back and regret not living my life.... I already go back and forth to NY for a part time job and to see family but I know he doesnt like me being away, but when I'm in town there is nothing to do. I feel stuck. :( should I try to get a job in ny?

I am a man who got married. I am 22. I want to change my last name to my wife's last name so I can be part of her family more, to honor her, she doesn't want to change hers, and I don't really like my last name. I don't know how hard it is. I live in New Mexico by the way, so the government will work a certain way. Can someone tell me how the laws of this works? Should we move to a state that does accept this and then change it there? I also told my sister and friends about this, and they just laughed and said that was a stupid idea.

Like they will have 5 illegitimate kids and already live with a man and act like getting married is such a big deal when they've literally already done everything already...it's pathetic

was 18 when my husband and his father kinda tricked me into marriage. But i love my husband a lot. They have business. I never had weddinf ceremony, didnt went for honeymoon, we dont own a house. And im a srudent so i dotn work yet. I askes my summer this summer get me any cheaoest car. He said he cant this sunmer. I know if he asks for it he can get. I git mad on him and noe he is sayung im hurting him because I m mad for material thing. Is this fair?

I've been married for 7 years and we were together. I found out he had sex with another woman twice the week after we were married 7 years ago. He doesn't know I know. I was snopping and I found this out. Should I confront him or let it go?

he's friends with his step dad his step dad gives him money. i feel like i'm trapped!! i do not LOVE MY X NO MORE weee divorce my son keeps begging me to re marry him

Okay this may seems like a joke question but it's not. I've asked stuff like this before. My wife is currently in a medically induced coma and it has been about 3 months. I haven't gotten laid, my kids are all free ranged and doing whatever they want. I'm bored and I need loving from someone if she's not waking up. This is the only situation where I think it's okay to cheat. I deserve this.

Sat, my husband and I were out running errands and my oldest son, 23 years old, text me asking to borrow $30. I tried to send it to him via CashApp but for some reason it wasn't allowing the money to go through. I asked my husband to send him $30 with his CashApp and I'd just give him the money back. He did. We went on with our day. On my way to work today (Tues) I get a text message from my husband asking me when I was going to give him his $30 back? Is he really hounding me over a measly $30? Last week his daughter CashApped me some money so I could bring her some lunch to work. My husband worked the late shift that day and couldn't take her lunch to her. I'm not asking him for my time and gas back. I replied to him a few minutes ago that I will pay him on this coming Fri. This was his reply. "Friday? Excuse me but if you had it on Saturday then you should still have it now." I told him I had to pay a few things but then he said that if I was going to just give my son $30 then that $30 should still be in there since I knew it was his.

They divorced years ago, we've been dating on and off since he filed for divorce. She was pregnant with their 2nd kid. He wanted a divorce because she always wanted to be around him. They hated each other ever since and he never wanted to try to fix it. He got drunk and I checked his messages now talk and text all the time and it's not about the kids. She wanted a Mercedes and he got it for her within days She didn't need it she wanted it She has a key to his house and spends many nights there They go out to lunch, dinner and trips with the kids. He won't tell her we're together anymore. He says he has no feelings for her and that she is fat and ugly but he bought her size 5 pants and I wear 9. He's always telling me how horrible she is and how much he hates her. He's a marine and she knows all about his job so he even talks to her about it not me because I have no idea what he's talking about. When I was reading the messages it's like she knows him better than me but we've been on and off longer than they were married. I had a son before we met and he never missed my son's games or holidays with us but now he's missed everyone and I found out they spent them together he also misses most of my son's games. I want a committed relationship with him but I'm scared she is trying to take him from me, what can I do? She is using him and he doesn't see it. Their daughter is a spoiled brat and she made my bf buy her a MacBook for 3rd grade and only likes expensive toys and trips.

Women may be stuck in emotions but sometimes you can realize using logic that a man isn't right for you because he's a different religion or you have another thing about him or his goals that totally conflict with yours. And yes feelings can be strong despite logical explanations in which case I advise avoiding the man completely. Do not talk to him. Another case is when you like him and he says he's not interested romantically, or is only wanting to fornicate with you. Say no and cut him off completely.

My wife went to LA to take care of her sick sister who has cancer and was punched in the face and slapped by their sister's daughter who is also the sick sister's care taker. The sister was also being very controlling in the same way my wife was with our daughter. I feel bad about what happened to my wife because it's truly devasting to hear someone would hit my wife. But I can't help me think of this as being karma because my wife was very emotionallly and physically abusive towards our daughter. Not too long ago before leaving on her trip she was calling our daughter a wh** and a b*** because she wanted to spend the night with her boyfriend. She also used to hit her. We have two sons and the difference in treatment is amazing. My wife called me and told me not to tell our daughter she was as assulated but she found out from our sons. It's such a weird situation.

The past month I have been having an affair with a married man we met online he has a wife and three children in a unhappy marriage and I'm also in a unhappy relationship. we secrecy met up to have sex including in the woods his vehicle in her vehicle even in their bed while she was out of town we thought we was careful but apparently not. we talk every day texting back and forth on his lunch break which he works graveyard shift we meet up we had sex we slept together 7 times. Today he was not answering me so I thought he was ignoring me I texted him throughout the day we was suppose to meet up later but he didn't answer. when he finally text me he told me someone told his wife he was cheating on her and she smashed his phone into pieces he had to purchase another one. Then he asked me if I told on her because this one time I got mad and said that but I would never do that I don't even know his wife or her name. He's staying at a motel now really upset he told me he got drunk last night and took his car. I informed him to reason with her and go to marriage counseling and me and him can be just friends we won't talk every day anymore. I feel terrible I never wanted to break up their marriage or family so please don't crucify me Everybody makes mistakes.
