I had an old female friend of mines do this a couple of days after i announced my engagement to my now ex wife.

I have tried and exhausted every resource including working two jobs . It's just not enough for me and my four kids to survive. . If I can not come up with a plan In 24 hours we will have to move back . He's abusive to me but I worry Most about my older children who he has started to abuse . I have tried churches , abuse centers . They all have no funds and long waiting list . I have a newborn and a 14 month old and with day care I just can't afford the rent anymore . This is my last chance to find help . If anyone knows like a national resource I would appreciate any direction . Otherwise your prayers and good thoughts are appreciated

I can't make people happy. Happiness comes from within. She just needs to search within herself for those answers. It can be difficult or maybe even impossible, but she's the only one who can do it.

In-laws offered to get us some furniture as an anniversary gift He wanted something bigger/more expensive than I'd typically go for. I suggested he should run it by his parents before making the purchase since it was a lot of money. I told him go ahead and handle it since I was leaving on a trip. Anyway, the furniture cost more than double what they were expecting to give, so they agreed to pay for part. At that point, I feel he should have come back to me and said "are you comfortable if we pay the other $2200?" but he didn't, he just went ahead and bought it even though it's more than I'd want to spend. It's also in a different color from what we decided on. To top it off, he was not understanding at all that I was shocked we are now spending $2200, when he keeps telling me he wants to save his money! He doesn't do well with being told this was not a good choice to make a big financial decision without me. He is borderline abusive - when I expressed that I want to be involved in that kind of decision making, he says I "want to wear the boots". I didn't react horribly or abusively to the news of this purchase, just shock and expressed that had it been run by me, I probably wouldn't have chosen such expensive items. He doesn't seem to get it that I want to be included in these kind of decisions.Why should I pay half of $2200 when I wasn't even involved in the final decision and when I would have chosen something smaller personally?

when i was sinngle i had bad luck with women. i occasionally had few night stands every once in a while until i met my wife. i been married now for 5 years and ever since i got married a lot of women want to be with me in private more often. it happens to a few men that i know but why this happens more when you are married? how come i didn't had this luck when i was single?

And got nothing from their dad? I think so.

is it ok if i ask my wife to have sex with another women so that i can see them kiss each other?

So my wife took a leave from work, we've been having a mountain of problems, but she takes a leave to clean the house, she instead spends the first 2-3 days hanging out and partying with friends. She stayed the night with her friends both days. Now she texts me today and says "you're paying half the bills this month" idk if she was asking or telling. Then says we have a coupon we need to use at this store. Then texts me and says "im gonna make the makeup room your room until you figure out the living arrangements".. she has been saying she's done with me and wants a divorce, saying she found one for around 100 dollars and for me to move out but she spends money on other stuff instead if a divorce. She is on zoloft for anxiety and her hormones have been out of whack for years (no regular time of the month, sometimes lasts for a year) she is acting so out of control, being reckless and uncharacteristic behavior, being late for work constantly, idk what to think or what to do, i want to make this work because i truly love her. She still has us as married on fb and still logs into my account sometimes, her dad died in december and that's when all this started, she had an iud put in about a month ago and after that her talks for divorce skyrocketed. I already told her before i don't want to leave, she has been asking me to do stuff for her this whole time

About 5 months ago, my wife divorced me. And now just recently she contacted me and asked if I wanted to hook back up. I need guidance :/

Being abused by a man who claims to love me. He has physically harmed me maybe 4 times in the last 2 years he yells and gets mad when I accuse him of cheating even though he has in the past and shows signs of cheating also he looks at women in front of me but denies it and goes into a rage for the rest of the day. When he gave me a concussion he had no remorse and won't take responsibility he also never wanted sex with me and blamed that on the arguing but we were arguing because he was being distant. I am done with everything and feel very sad in the beginning he acted like a nice intelligent man but that all changed

Or should she stay with a man that can never give her any sort of satisfaction from the boom boom and she will never achieve a g spot orgasm. Should she really of waited till she was married to do the do doo. Don't you find it messed up the women can never be happy and unfair too her.

my husband told my 24 year old daughter that i have a pee kink where he pees on me. He also told her that its disgusting and thats why he doesn't 'screw me' anymore. He also told my brother that I don't get him hard anymore . what do i do about this?

My husband was away on a guys weekend and went to a bar across the street from his hotel. He was tired so decided to go back earlier than the other guys. He took the rest of his beer with him, in the glass, out of the restaurant! I am SO PARANOID now that he will be arrested for stealing a glass, or have a warrant out for an open container or something. I am also pregnant and worried we will have bad karma now! He didn't bring the glass home, he left it in the hotel room, but I am so upset! Will he be persecuted?! *prosecuted

I've been fighting (mentally) with my wife for 13 years now (some of it was before I discovered yahoo). 13 years ago she would've been 24 years old and I would have been 23. We've been together for 5 years when the problems started and I never understood WHY they happened; but I think I'm starting to understand it and I honestly have no phuking clue on what to do about it. Okay so some of this is going to come with some assumptions that we'll have to make because my wife is an empowered woman who refuses to get behavioral, mental, emotional, or sexual therapy. But by us having an autistic son (PDD-NOS - basically dumb Asperger's) and me not having it (I was tested as a kid and adult), it an be assumed that he got it from her genes. Autism is known for emotionally stunting people into younger ages and them being stuck there despite being mentally older than their age. This can also happen to people who have suffered PTSD so pick your poison on the label she has. Anyways, my son is 17 but he acts 12 but thinks like he's 23. My wife on the other hand is now 38 but she has the emotional age of probably around 23 and the mental age of 50 (this is an assumption). If she is indeed emotionally stunted like our son, how would a 37 year old neurotypical man "woo" a 23 year old woman? She's not into physical attractiveness, but she likes attention; how do I do this? When we first met, all I had to do was like her. She saw me as a trophy; now I'm nothing to her except maybe a pet.

She makes enough salary to support our 4 kids, 5 pets, all the food, and all the bills without my income. She has a joint checking account with me and excludes me from seeing how we are doing financially. She prefers to cook all the meals so she be in control of what she's eating at all times. She hires out all the work that I would be doing as a "man" - lawn, home repair, etc. She is a child focused person who values the company of our 4 teens (13, 16, 17, and 18) over my company. When we do talk it's only to give me orders of what she wants me to do to help her life easier because I have information she needs that she can't get herself without my help. She hasn't been sexually active with me in over 10 years despite her going on the pill to regulate her periods (no, she's not banging someone else - she appears to be asexual and aromantic). She doesn't even have friends, she has dropped all her friends and now focuses exclusively on the kids (she appears to be asocial as well). And finally, everything she does for fun is done as a group; she doesn't allow me to have one on one time with her. So basically, she has taken away everything from me "as a husband"; the only choice she's left me with is to "be one of the kids"... I've never been non-dependable either, I've always been here for her and even tried to go above and beyond the call of duty; I've just never done it "good enough" for her so she has to do everything over again and she just took everything over. If you include driving time, I work 10 hour days 5 days a week (away from home for 50 hours). When I get home my days are completely planned for me (leisure and chores-wise). Stopping to get flowers, chocolates, or anything to "butter her up" would be called out by my daughter as "being fake" since she doesn't believe in love and my wife wouldn't appreciate it because of it. My wife also doesn't like to reciprocate; she's a taker, not a giver.

My brother is engaged to a woman who was with her ex husband since middle school. They were in their early 30s when they divorced. He left her the day she went into labor with their son. I am not asking questions (it's not my business) but am just trying to fathom how this could have happened? Obviously it's all conjecture but wondering others thoughts...

He goes out every weekend and come home very late but he never says who he's going out with. He just says it's with some friends but i'm not sure.

I confronted him and his answer was, " You have poor hygiene and my arm gets too tired because it takes forever for you to ***." First of all, I am a mother, I literally do everything to keep this house running. We've had a lot of bumps in the road and I looked the other way. But this is a real problem. I can't be in a sex-less marriage when im only in my 20's. Its not fair and I don't deserve this.. Help I always try and make an effort to make love but it's never the "right time." But when he's in the mood, its always all about him. No touching me, no foreplay, no dirty talk, and never ever, " What do YOU want." I feel like he has given up on our sexual life because a while back he offered to see other people. How he wants me to get what I needed, everything just makes sense now.

I can't tell him how I feel because it would crush him of course. We have a great life together and we both do good financially. Our sex life is great about 3-4 times a week. So everything is good there. We have three children together. We married young, I was 20 and he was 21. I just feel like I want to run away, which is wrong. I just do not feel happy anymore. If you are a women, have you felt like this? sorry I mean if you are a woman, have you felt like this? No it's not because I want to date other men. I could care less about any other man than my husband.

Need a moral compass

He was caught doing naughty things when he had his own account that his wife had to put her foot down and say" no social media unless account is shared"?

My husband got mad at me and confided in his four adult children. I had set a boundary with my husband over some financial issues. He ended up telling his children where I got all my money and how much I have as well as our private's marital issues. Of course they sided with him and viewed him as the victim which he portrayed himself to be. It's been almost a year and in spite of the fact that he says he told them the truth about his part in things they refuse to see me or allow me to see their children whom I previously had a great relationship with and babysat for. I have been good to his kids over the years. I did not create this problem but I am being punished for it. We have two vacation homes and he said he would not allow them to use them due to their ugliness toward me. Now he got mad at me again and invited every single one of them to our beach condo while I was out of town. I feel this is feeding into the problem and I feel so hurt over it. I am ready to end the marriage over this among other things. How would you handle this?

**If you aren't Christian or religious, this probably isn't the question for you to answer. TIA! **Any advice on how to be happy for your sibling when you feel they are making a mistake? He is marrying a woman who I believe he does love and I believe she loves him.. but ever since they have gotten together his values have gone downhill from what they were before. Doesn't try to be healthy or take care of himself. He drinks a lot more than he used to, he visits family less often and used to be interested in going to church..but once SHE got word of that idea, she shut it down very quickly and always gets an attitude when anyone in our family brings up "god" or anything like that. I feel like he wants to have Christ in his life but she is holding him back. and now he is about to marry her and I'm in the wedding. I feel like as long as he marries her he will never have a life fulfilled by Jesus but I guess that is his/their choice. Any advice on how to cope?
