What’s the status of our relationship?

What’s the status of our relationship?

I’ve been seeing this guy for about 2 mos. He says he likes me, that he likes me a lot (I’m told this almost daily). BTW, he pushed last week for me to tell him what I wanted from him, I told him his heart (he hasn’t run, is that good or insignificant?). We pretty much see each other on a daily basis…and, it’s basically a “what are we doing tonight” kind of thing on his part (so, in my mind, this means we have moved from dating to relationship – I know, don’t make assumptions he may see it differently).

 

Anyway, this week, he said we need to find me someone who will be here for me when he goes away for 2 mos in the winter. I told him not to say things like that (he has said something similar in the past which resulted in me insisting I didn’t want someone else). Somehow the whole what I wanted from him came up again and I told him that he

knows exactly what I want, his heart (then he broke into song singing Rod Stewart’s “You’re in My Heart”, not sure if that is even related to what I said or he just went with it because it popped into his head). He’s so frustrating, he’s hot and then he’s cold, I have trouble reading him.

 

So, what is you’re opinion and thoughts about this guys intentions? (more…)

My husband had a one year affair and now says he wants to work things out

My husband had a one year affair and now says he wants to work things out

Although he says he wants to work things out. I don’t really feel like he truly cares nor loves me. He does not want to deal with my questions anymore (I found out 1 month ago). When I get mad he gets mad back. I am really hurt but wish I could get things to be the way they used to be. We have 3 kids and 18 years of marriage. Has anyone out there truly gotten “over” infidelity and been happy again? What should I do? (more…)

Hubby doesn’t like the way I look and gives me no affection?

Hubby doesn’t like the way I look and gives me no affection?

My husband and our relationship progressed very quickly. We had our first baby and got married when I was 20. I’m now 24, him 28, and we have 2 more kids. My weight is his biggest issue. I was at a healthy weight when we met but after our first I had gained an extra 20lbs on top of the pregnancy. He’s very critical of me in a lot I do… even just acting myself in public, I just never feel good enough or pleasing enough for him. He’s been at my weight from the beginning but now it’s at its worst since I’m at my heaviest. My baby is 5 months old, who I’m not breastfeeding and also on birth control combined with low self esteem from you know who, it’s been tough trying to lose the weight. I’m about 35lbs over weight. He loves hanging out with his friends but doesn’t like to hang out with me. He gives me 0 affection. Sometimes he will give me a hug or kiss if I ask, but I’m just tired of always giving him my heart and having it be hurt. Should I stay or should I go? There’s been times I’ve told him I’m not happy and had concerns about our relationship and its made him worried and sad but nothing enough to make him change. I just don’t think he can see past my weight… always checking out other girls and it hurts. We have 3 beautiful children; he’s a great dad but just really sucks at the husband role. I’m afraid I won’t be able to lose this weight and my hubby will never love me. I wish he just loved me no matter what. 🙁 (more…)

It’s over if you don’t shower!

It’s over if you don’t shower!

Help! I have been dating the most wonderful man for eight months. He is the most kind, caring and loving man I have ever been with. My problem started when I sold my house and moved in with him temporarily.

Since living with him I have learned that he doesn’t shower every day! He doesn’t have body odor and it’s not obvious that he doesn’t bathe, but now that I’m living with him I’ve seen that he sometimes lets as long as four days pass between showers.

I was raised to shower every day and I really find this disgusting. I’ve tried every way I can think of to persuade him to shower every day — joking, cajoling and being stern. For me, this is a deal breaker.

I realize I shouldn’t have moved in with him and that situation will change soon, but can you help me come up with ways to convince him that he must bathe every day? (more…)

How do you know if you’re in love?

How do you know if you’re in love?

How do you know if you’re in love with someone or if it’s just lust or the beginning of a relationship where you’re just so happy?
I’ve been dating a guy for almost 2 weeks now. I’ll admit it; we’ve done it. We’ve met each others family and friends, we’ve gone on dates, and he asked me to go on a little trip with him and I agreed to it. He’s all I think about at night, the simplest texts make me smile; he surprised me and showed up at my work, I dream of him. I don’t know. Is it love? (more…)
