My disabled mother is living with my husband and I with our 3 young children.  My husband works and I stay at home with the kids. When my husband is home I spend my time with him and my mom said she feels like she's not part of the family.  I make plans to hang out with her and do want she wants but she always wants more. And I feel like my main family is my husband and my kids now and she's part of our outer family like my husband and I's parents and siblings. I moved her in to help her. But not to change the way I live with my husband.  I want to spend my time with him and our children. I feel like she should get some friends so she would stop wanting me to hang out with her all the time. I don't want her to get upset though because she used to be a cutter and suicidal and she tells me how much she wants to cut or die when she's upset and feels unwanted but even hearing that I want to tell her to get over it. I'm high functioning autistic and I'm not sure if how I'm feeling is normal or insensitive. 

Help I'm dealing with a husband who don't care about me. I have his two children and he disappear I'm currently in my mom home because she helping me with my kids until I finish with my postpartum I deliver my son 5 weeks ago. But my husband stay in our home alone and did not want to see us or help me with the kids. He rarely texts me I'm really upset and sad I need solutions for this we been married only for 2 and 9 month  we met online in July 27 2017 he showed me love in the beginning now no more love or affection what does it mean 

Good health Good job/satisfied with job Good marriage/LTR Financially stable Good set of friends you can rely on that are "true" friends Good strong support network of family (parents, siblings, kids, extended family) I have never been able to have all of these at once. I have been lucky to have 4 or 5 of these 6 things for a good amount of time.

I kind of have a feeling some of these are the parents agreeing to that, but it seems like courts are always ruling that the mom gets custody and the dad gets visitation unless the mom unstable or the judge finds that the mom is doing something that prohibits her ex husband from seeing the children. Basically using the kids as pawns.

Someone I was in a relationship with 4 years, recently got married. Following the end of the relationship, my ex assaulted and raped me. At the time, I didn't report it, I was scared, really young, and in denial. Fast forward to this year, I found out he got married. I don't know why, but I feel this "icky" feeling. Almost like it's not fair... has anyone experienced anything similar? It feels like he was able to cause so much trauma in my life, and walk away unscathed, now married... How do you make sense of emotions like this? FYI: Nowhere in this question did I mention getting even, sending anyone to jail, etc. etc. The feelings that I am referring to do not stem from a need for vengeance. 

I've been with my husband for 9 years, 8 living together. We have two kids, the youngest is 2 years old. But I don't feel happy in this relationship. When I talked to him about how I feel and what I want, he always treats me like I'm wrong, and that I'm just blaming him about everything. When we got married, we just signed a paper, there was no engagement, no wedding, we got married because we needed the legal benefits of being married. But I always wanted to have something, but that's not important to him, I told him so many times that I wanted a ring, once he said ok I'll give you a ring, and next time I brought up the topic again, he said why do I need that?  I feel so disappointed and frustrated. When I try to talk about my feelings he just shuts me down, and he doesn't want to listen or understand how I feel. I don't like his authoritative way of raising the kids, and he has what I consider a closed mindset, that if he was raised that way, it works, but I disagree and I would like to try different approaches, but he doesn't believe in that and doesn't want to try. He also doesn't believe that going to therapy will work because he thinks that we can figure this out ourselves, but I disagree. Now, all I keep thinking about is getting divorced, but I can't move out because of the lease contract, and I feel hopeless, I don't have any friends to talk about this, I feel so alone. I just hate him. He doesn't care if I'm happy.

my son's father and I spit up two months ago.. he was cheating on me along with other situations we have been having he then told me to leave knowing I will take my son everywhere I go.. I then recently got my own apartment with my son . He has moved in that girl that he has cheated on me with and put her son into my son's room.he has served me with custody papers regarding 50/50 I do not trust him alone with my son for numerous reasons however I know courts will probably Grant him something. What is the possible chance of Court granting him 50-50. I also don't care that he's with her it just upsets me that he gave up my son's room for the girl that he cheated on me with son. That's what really bothers me. Am I wrong for feeling the way I feel. I promise its not jealousy of her. Also Another woman has him on child support for a four-year-old little girl that he has never met nor does he want to meet and says he wants nothing to do with the little girl.. but then again gives me a hard time with my son.sometimes I feel like it's control because we had a relationship and a girl that has him on child support wasn't serious. does this look good on him in our custody battle when he says that he doesn't want nothing to do with the other little girl but is fighting desperately for my son

You have divorced/broken up with your ex and you had a child with her. Now you have found a new partner and she is your wife. Who comes first now, the wife or the child?

then she says that its her choice and her freedom with whom she hangs out and the husband should not feel insecured.  But later one day she sadly confesses  that she slept with one of her ex in effect of wine last night and she says she is innocent? Is this what is modernism? I.e partying around with exes after marriage and then sleep with them blaming the alcohol and trying to excape from the fault? And is this what is "my choice", "my life" and "my body" attitude for a modern womrn?

The family has been rooting for this for years. Sadly they ruined the lives of their four children. The wife refuses to believe in forgiving people anything in the husband has a bad temper and is a drinker. Two of their four children have a lot of issues now as well especially the daughter Who is downright mean. Like her mother she signed the " Thy shall not forgive" pact.

I am newly married as of a few months and do not have many issues with my husband. We are both in our late twenties and currently without children. My husband is quite patriarchal and loves boasting about being a man and how men should do x,y, and z because it's a man's job and a woman should be a pretty flower that gets taken care of.  Due to COVID-19, I've been able to keep my job and my wages. However, he's an independent contractor and has seen changes in his wages. He's a nonresident of the United States, so he doesn't qualify for the stimulus check. I had my tax refund and stimulus check sent to our home via postal mail. He's asked when I'm getting it and said that it's our money.  How would you deal with this? 

If you have a ex-husband who is behind in child support.  Where will his $1,200 go?

Many years ago my wife and I moved into a rental home. As part of the lease we are responsible for the yard. No problem. I bought a lawnmower and it lasted quite a few years. Last summer the mower finally died on us. The price of lawnmowers have really gone up in price. On the cheap end you're looking at $250. Well, about a year ago a guy and his family moved in across the street and he cuts grass as a side business. My wife asked him last year to cut our grass which he did. Now that spring is here the grass is really growing now and I still haven't managed to invest in a new mower. She has been wanting to get the guy across the street to cut our yard again. Today I told her to go ahead and ask him to do it. She looks at me and says that since the guy has a wife or girlfriend living there it wouldn't look right for her to walk across the street to ask him to cut our grass. We are going to pay him not exchange it for sexual favors so I don't see the problem with her asking him. She feels that since the guy has a wife or girlfriend living there it wouldn't look right for her to knock on his door to offer him the business. She looks at me and says, "I don't know how you were raised but ask your mom or sister to see what they think." She believes in that as a gender roll, however, she refuses to cook every night. So we alternate nights. I'll cook one night and she'll cook the next. That's fine for her but asking a neighbor to cut out grass should be a man's job. Again, along with her gender rolls, I've mentioned this before, but she feels it's not a woman's job to wash her own car.  "What would the neighbors think if they saw me washing my car and my husband was inside the house?"  Chances are if she's out there washing her car I'd be out there along side of her washing my own car so who cares what the neighbors think.  Should a man only speak to another man about asking him to cut our grass?  

My mom's got this cousin who left her husband for another man and this weekend I told my parents that I seen the ex husband recently and he looks old as dirt. He's apparently had a miserable life ever since the divorce 21 years ago. We don't see him very often, maybe I've seen them three or four times since the divorce. However, he was the one who wanted to save the marriage and the wife is the one that wanted to go with another man. Yet she has moved on with her other man and this ex-husband of hers is miserable and has been for 21 years. So is this normal after a divorce? Is divorce like a death you never recover from? I have an uncle who got divorced and recently my dad noted when my grandmother said "he just needs to MoveOn" that you never move on from something like that.

My mom and my relatives told me a person who marries but doesnt finish college is a failure. People tend to value you based on your education, not if you get married. 

My mom has finally accepted my boyfriend after years of not trusting him and being suspicious of him. She finally loves him like her own son. He has 3 other kids by two other woman he was with before me which was the main cause of her suspicions but she said she's finally learned to love him without judgement and she feels like he's a good man for him. Some days it even feels like she loves him more than me she's constantly smiling and laughing with him now. Me and my boyfriend have a very toxic relationship but I have never told my parents the dark side of it. I never wanted them to see him as this controlling person but he is and has always been stuck in his ways, he is the type of person where his opinion is fact and every conversation we had turned into an argument because he always feels like his opinion is right. Our views are completely different. We had a conversation about abuse and he straight up said that abuse was the victims fault and the victim should look in the mirror. Also he breaks up with me every couple of months. Seems like every time we have an argument he says he aren't meant to be but break ups but then he calls me and begs for me to accept him back he says he loves me and can't imagine himself with anyone else. He's a good man as far as driving me to work and stuff but I feel like I can never have my own opinion while I'm with him with. In the beginning of our relationship he constantly accused me of cheating on him  He stopped accusing me of cheating now but I know in the beginning of our relationship it was even worse he accused me of cheating and tried to figure me to make sure I was still tight  During our Easter dinner my boyfriend has his back turned during his homework the entire time at our house. I was like you can't take one day to be present with us and put down your work 

The uncle has already been dating even when they were still married. For some reason my parents are on his side.

Married 31 years. I'm under a lot of pressure t work and somehow I think a spanking would release that pressure. I love her tremendously, and am very embarrassed she'll say no

My son said a snappy remark to me so I told him to qoute "lick me where I fart" my wife and I got into an argument about wether or not this is appropriate and I in the right here?
