Talk : : April 10, 2012
lost job about a year ago. I felt like unemployment was kind of like an extended maternity leave, ds was 4 months old at the time, dd 2. Now unemployment will run out soon, working on a potentially very lucrative start up with some partners. DH says he is supportive, but that I need to get a job before unemployment ends. I haven't seen anything that will bring much in after the cost of daycare. WWYD? I'm starting to question the notion of equality of the sexes in this situation. DH makes good money, he could support the family but doesn't want to cut back. I want to work but not just to pay for daycare. Whose decision should this be?
3 replies [ Reply | Watch | More04.10.12, 09:26 PM Flag ]You both need to decide. I was unemployed for a while as well and my DH became downright mean. At times it was really too much. I took care of 2 young dc without any help, and he didn't appreciate it at all, as he thinks taking care of dc is not for smart, ambitious people. I got a job offer a few weeks ago (will start in the next few day) and he did a 180 and is nice again, after almost 2 years. I don't understand this attitude, but it is what it is.

So I've never "dated". I was in a relationship since High School. I'm 27 and single now, with a 5 yr old. I'm doing some online dating, but I'm completely intimidated by going out on a date, I also tend to lean towards rushing things (always been the girl jotting my married name and kids name with every new bf). Can you give me some pointers on how to date?
13 replies [ Reply | Watch | More04.10.12, 07:47 PM Flag ]Read the Rules, Patti Stranger's book, and How to Stop Wondering when you'll meet him or something like that. Use these as a guideline, but create your own formula. I went from being too needy/texty/rushed to being too cold...and now I'm trying to find the right balance. These books did slow me down a lot though.
[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 07:49 PM Flagomg. don't read these books!!! be yourself but never, ever clingy because you are just fine being without a man. don't call men until you have had at least 3 dates, preferably 5. just be nice. let them pay for dinners. you pick up drinks or dessert elsewhere if you like him. don't play mind games. but don't be desperate.

no. those books are f-ed up. they say things like "don't guffaw, you must laugh dainty little peel." "don't ever call, even if they call you and leave a message." wth? i would call back if someone left me a message. very rude. do not accept a date if he calls on thursday for a friday even if you have no plans. uh, no, if he thinks i am a loser because i didn't have friday plans, then he is a judgmental ass and i don't need him in my life. if i have nothing, we go. if i have something else lined up, that's his loss. then there's "be easy to be with and laugh a lot -- be a creature like no other. " wth? i am me. i have angry moments. i have sad moments. i have contemplative moments. you take it or leave it. then in the marriage rules, there's the gold, "don't share your problems with your husband -- that's what friends and relatives are for!" uh, so, husbands are not "relatives" but just family so he shouldn't be bothered with your worries and gripes?

Talk : : April 10, 2012
I just found out my new girlfriend was sexually abused growing up. Aside from talking to her and reading books about the topic, what can I do to be especially reassuring and caring towards her when we have sex? We went to bed together for the first time this weekend (been dating 3 months) and she started crying right in the middle of things. I don't want to cause her any more hurt, I just want to be there for her. Any ideas? I have a 5 year old daughter from a previous marriage and I'd kill anyone who ever hurt her. I am feeling a lot of anger towards the person who hurt my girlfriend.

I'm also a victim of sexual abuse...but not long term ongoing, which seems might be the case here? Anyway, what helps me is 1. Having my partner know (which you do). 2. Support!!! Tell me if something is good for you. I often feel inadequate. Also, I hate hate hate having him ask me what I like. I'd prefer you complete a task and then I'll say I liked it, or ask for more, etc. Idk if that makes sense, but I hate talking about what I want a guy to do. She might need more therapy. I needed a lot.

50 year old father of two here. I've been dating for about 3 years now (divorced for 6 years) and at this point I feel like every single woman out there is wrong for me. Everyone I meet seems self-absorbed, arrogant, pushy, shallow, boring, mean, crazy, or just plain stupid. I'm not arrogant, but I'm a nice guy with some good qualities. I just want to find a normal girl, who is nice and smart. That's all. Is that too much? What am I doing wrong?

No, old guy comes on here complaining that all of the "girls" that he meets are dreadful and we're supposed to say what? Agree? Please. He sounds like he's his own problem. He's 50..yet the majority of the women he's dating are in their 30s and 40s (likely early 40s)and more than likely child free themselves. His primary focus is likely looks and he probably looks passable at best. I'm sorry--50 with kids? He's not exactly eligible bachelor material: men die younger than women. These women see depends and ornery step kids in their future and they're not taking him seriously. OP, try dating 50 year old single mothers. Stay in your lane and you'll have better results.
[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 05:26 PM FlagI only date single mothers. As I have said in a response below, I don't feel that I have enough in common with a never-married childless woman to even attempt a single date. I didn't realize that age difference was such a big deal. Most of the women I date are in their 40s, the youngest one was 37 (when I was 48).

It is hard to find someone in NYC. People here are so ambitious. Always looking to be better and "one-up" the next person. You want to date someone smart and sexy.

[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 05:38 PM FlagI am an optimistic person, but I've tried dating for 3 years (actively dating) with very little luck. This is a negative post because I have a problem. If everything was great, I wouldn't be posting asking for advice. When I go out on a date, I don't kick it off by complaining about all the other women out there, obviously.
[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 05:41 PM FlagI have been divorced for three years and only dated two men briefly. Both times I broke it off because I felt like he was seeing at least 4-5 other women and I didn't know how comfortable I was getting intimate with someone who might be sleeping with others simultaneously. I hadn't been single since mid 90's and everything seemed so different. I get what you are saying because I feel like men are the same way that you are describing women. I am in my late 30's, very thin, attractive, smart, etc. but have not had good success with dating. I think it's a timing thing. When it is right, it will happen. I swore off internet dating. Just waiting for the right thing to happen the old fashioned way.....
[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 05:46 PM FlagUnless we have a conversation about being exclusive, I expect that the woman I am dating is seeing other people, and I hope that she expects the same from me. Realistically, though, there's very little time in my schedule to be carrying on multiple relationships. When I get serious about someone, I try to spend as much time as I can with them, which sort of takes care of the "other women" problem on its own.

[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 06:01 PM FlagThe longest one after the divorce lasted for 7 months. She brought up exclusivity about 3 weeks into it (after 4 dates) and I consented. She turned out to be incredibly jealous, clingy, and a bit nuts.
[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 06:03 PM FlagWell 7 months is a nice long run. I would say you should just "hang in there." I think you'll meet someone if you keep your eyes out. Don't be afraid to talk to strangers. Have a business card you could hand to someone if she catches your eye in a coffee shop.

[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 03:16 PM FlagThis is fascinating to me because DH's first wife was a therapist and she slept around, including with her mentor. He hates therapists - I truly hope we never need one because he will have a very hard time going.
[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 05:11 PM FlagAre you fricking kidding me? Not all therapists are your ex husband. My therapist is nothing like the above of what you mentioned and seems to genuinely care about making a difference. Look, I've seen shitty therapist, and I'm not denying that they're human and suject to flaws, too, but please don't denounce a whole profession based on one person. Judge on a case by case basis. If people actually believe this they could be seriously damaged because they would not get help since all therapists are messed up too. Then what's the point? Come on, it's not that bad. Yeah, he is, but not everyone.

I get that this is a turn on, and of course you have a very intimate relationship, but this is a very bad idea for you. He knows too much about you, knows your insecurities and weaknesses, knows how to manipulate you. It will end badly and you will feel violated. Don't do it.

Do you think this is normal - dh and I on a family vacation - we share hotel room with kids and kids fell asleep and we were packing and dh leaned over and started making out with me and then a second later went back to the business of packing. We do not have a great sex life and it is an issue so i thought maybe we'd go into the bathroom or something but that was it - an hour later we were sleeping in separate beds bc each kid was in one. I was miserable. Am I wrong - do I expect too much? Wouldnt most husbands have gone for it?

[ Reply | More ]04.10.12, 12:44 PM FlagI thought my DH had a low libido but kids also sleep in our bed ( they are babies). Now we have rearranged our furniture so there is a spare bed away from the kids and amazingly he wants it almost every night. So maybe he really was put off by kids' presence. Let him know you are interested in some way and then see if he makes the right move when circumstances are better.

Yes, I looked into it at one point. Eventually, though, DH decided it was too much effort to get an entirely separate place to maintain. Now he just comes and goes. When he does not want to come home and wants his own time, he has a favorite hotel in town that he likes. He is an insane workaholic and sometimes the house and kids and chaos is too much.

He likes his quiet private space and at our house it's kids, their friends, all different ages, and when you have someone who wants the entire house to be quiet when he gets home after work, it just doesn't work out that way. He would be happy with a dorm room and a cot, the quiet matters to him. Sometimes he also sleeps at his office.

I'm worried about a friend. A few years ago, she moved in with her boyfriend. He bought an apartment in cash that was big enough for her and her three kids (he has no kids). She wasn't on the deed, and no official arrangements were ever made. Now, her kids feel like this is their home. Things aren't good and my friend wants to move out. I'm worried that her BF (who is sometimes prone to intense anger) could be more vindictive and simply evict them all or change the locks. Does anyone know what the legalities in this situation are? (My friend has contributed to household expenses, including paying to renovate a bathroom, but they've never put anything in writing.)
14 replies [ Reply | Watch | More04.09.12, 08:19 PM Flag ]-
OP: This is what I'm afraid of. What if he changes the locks one day -- can she get access to get her kids' clothes/toys/books/stuff out of there? She just told him about an affair she's had and he's pissed. He doesn't have kids of his own, so he doesn't "get" it.

Just the fact that she & the kids have been under his roof for a period of time exceeding 30 days he cannot just change the locks and prevent them from entering. If he wants them out he MUST go through the legal eviction process. Absolutely call the police if he tries anything. They cannot back him up on an "illegal" eviction.

ANYONE can move in a few days if they really wanted to (maybe you have to pay extra, accept a lesser rental, or borrow money, but it can certainly be done!), it must be incredibly uncomfortable for him, her, and her kids to all live under the same roof until june 1. That being said, if he kicks your friend out, she should be able to get back in to get her stuff. Just show the police her driver license or bill to establish her address, and they will escort her to get her stuff.

Need more info. But, I'd say at first it would really bum me out. Later, the next day, I think I'd be upset that I married someone who was immature and didn't know how to fight or disagree without name calling and resorting to off-topic subjects. It would also make me think he was desperate to end the "conversation" since insulting someone's weight will certainly end many discussions, heated or normal. What is your plan? What did he say exactly? Are you sure you aren't being overly sensitive?
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 11:04 AM FlagI have no plan. I am fuming. He told me to lose weight and stop talking. So I have stopped talking. He knows I have struggled with losing weight for years, but in the past he's always said I look good and I should not worry about a few extra pounds. To be clear I probably am about 10 pounds overweight and 10 lbs heavier than when we met (post childbirth too).

If I had known that you wuld think I was so unattractive with TEN POUNDS added to my frame then I'm not so sure I would have made that trip down the aisle. And if this is how the rest of the treatment is going to be when I get a little crow's feet, or my boobs start sagging then you can just forget this marriage, because I'm not wasting my time with someone who wants a trophy wife, plastic filled, botox sex object. YOU can go find yourself one of those all on your own. I'm going to go enjoy someone who is heterosexual and likes me for me, and will lean in, grab my ass and say "I'll show you who's fat."

[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 11:28 AM Flagit really depends on the facts, and there are not nearly enough to decide here. you said that he thinks you shouldn't worry about it, yet you still worry about it, and it's only 10 lbs. It's possible that he just spoke out of frustration because he's tired of hearing you going on and on about it and indulging what he sees as unhealthy thoughts. wasn't there, so i don't know what happened, but if this is that much out of character, it makes me think there is much more to this story.

[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 11:46 AM Flag
Based on the details you later provide, it wasn't really a comment about your weight. You've been whining about losing weight for awhile, so finally in the middle of an argument he basically said do it or shut up about it. Not the same as calling you fat.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 11:49 AM FlagI don't whine about anything. It was not an argument about my weight. My weight had absolutely nothing to do with it. It was a low blow intended to hurt my feelings and end the argument.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 11:51 AM FlagHe said you should stop talking about losing weight and just do it- right?
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 11:53 AM FlagNo. The argument had nothing to do with my weight. My weight is not a problem. He tried to come up with the meanest thing he could say to me. He couldn't say I'm ugly, because I am not, or attack me in another way. He knows I am conscious of my weight, so he used it against me to end the argument.

I don't know what to do...divorced, 2 DC. Have been dating my BF seriously for 2.5 yrs. I love him - he's a gentleman, sensitive, I know w/o a doubt he loves me and my DC. He's 50 - never been married but a number of long term relationships. His last GF was a disaster and really traumatized him so he didn't date for about 3 yrs before he met me. Anyway, our relationship has lacked all sexual intimacy for months and months. We kiss and hug and regularly tell each other we love each other frequently but overall I'd say we lack affection. I've brought this to his attention many times and I know it's hard for him to hear but he's cognizant of my feelings and the importance I place on intimacy. We live together (no flames, pls) and he literally does nothing around the house, doesn't take the dog out even occasionally w/o me asking, doesn't wake up on holidays to watch kids open presents or find their Easter baskets. He's having a lot of financial issues (we keep everything separate but split all bills and rent)

Plus my parents just have some weird thoughts/beliefs that he doesn't agree with. Im torn btwn love and reality. It sucks.

Sounds about right. This is what I would expect from someone who is 50, has never been married and is dating someone who is divorced with 2 kids. What's your question? Will you find someone better? No. Maybe different but not better.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 08:58 AM FlagYou give way too much credit to his last girlfriend. He is selfish. Yes, I remember all of your other posts.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 09:02 AM FlagYou're better off with a female roommate. The sex, affection and physical aspect is the distinguising feature between a significant other and all other relationships. If you were both fine without it, fine. But since you're not, I'd consider other options. He'll probably still be around if you want to come back.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 09:04 AM FlagI don't need a roommate - just don't know what the smart thing to do is b/c I when I love I love. I'm 38 so it sounds like maybe everything besides the intimacy and financial stuff could be due to his age/marital status. The intimacy thing makes me crazy as ex withheld it from me (he was abusive - everything but physically abusive) and I crave the connection.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 09:08 AM FlagJust read the rest of your post about how he doesn't help with anything, has financial troubles, etc. This guy is better than the abusive ex but you really need to keep setting the bar higher. He sounds like an old dog laying around that needs to eat but doesn't contribute. Warm body.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 09:14 AM Flagwe all have different needs, and it is good that you know and acknowledge yours. reading your posts, I would so rather not be in a relationship than be in the one you are in. i'm divorced, but for the sake of my kid would not enter into a relationship that put me in a worse financial situation. and if you need intimacy and he isn't offering it, what exactly is appealing about this relationship?
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 09:17 AM Flag
Your 50 year-old bf is allowing your parents to contribute to his bills? Do you have any self-respect? Is he committed to your children? His ex has nothing to do with how poorly he treats you, and you put up with this.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 09:05 AM FlagI have self respect. The bill thing is most certainly one of the reasons my parents don't like him. It bothers me, too. I don't know what to do.

Do you really think he would still have issues that cause certain behaviors at age 50? Do you think the things I've outlined sound like he's treating me like a 'Mother''? Although come to think of it, when we did have sex, he always asked if I'd role play as Mommy.

My two cents, with your history of relationships, you really need intensive counseling so you can get on with your life. You are still young and I am sure could find someone better. I am a strong believer in a positive attitude to attract the right people, that and common sense.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 10:11 AM FlagI know. I was actually in intensive counseling for yrs....individual and marital including domestic violence counseling. I was a hot mess as I was going through divorce and after. Picked/attracted/dated a few v. wrong guys but things started to click for me as time progressed. My BF fell into my lap via a mutual friend. I've outlined a lot of negatives but I felt like I finally found someone good and kind. Like I said, I love him but (not to beat a dead horse) there are nagging reservations that are boiling over. Idiosynchrocies that only become apparent once you live with someone and experience life's obstacles. The only difference - we're not married.

[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 10:40 AM FlagGay Uncle here. MEN NEED SEX. Yes, even the ugly ones and the old ones. And when a man needs sex, he seeks it out. If he's not getting it from you, he's getting it elsewhere. And given that you're not married, if it was with another woman, he would have left you for that other woman a long time ago; men are very simple this way. He's obviously gay and still in the closet; the only sex he might be getting could very well just be with his right hand. But the fact of the matter is, a man who doesn't fuck his wife/girlfriend generally is a man who doesn't want sex with women, period.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 10:48 AM FlagHmmm. To be a devil's advocate, how to explain my ex who withheld sex from me during our marriage out of cruelty. I know he did not cheat. I guess he used his hand. Question though - if a man consistently prefers anal, is that a fetish or a sign of something else?

Talk : : April 09, 2012
What do I make of this? Went to OBGYN for first prenatal appt. on 3/29. I had sex on night of 2/28 and pretty certain that I ovulated that night. Or atleast was about to. I had the egg white discharge. So by the time of my appt I should have been 6 weeks, 1 day. OBGYN did a transvaginal sono and said wow great looking sac and it is in a good spot. I was like ok but is there a fetal pole, heartbeat. She couldn't see one but said she was not worried. She was honest in admitting that her machine was very bad and even offered to send me to another place to get another sono. I didn;t. She said she thinks I was about 5 weeks, 6 days but again wasn't concerned. I think this is very strange. I am going back tomorrow to see if the pregnancy is viable and very nervous. What do you think?
7 replies [ Reply | Watch | More04.09.12, 08:00 AM Flag ]First of all, don't worry -- it's too early to worry. 6 weeks can be early. With ds, we saw nothing at 6 wks, I freaked out, and then we went back and everything was fine at 7wks with dd we saw something a little after 6 weeks. At that stage every day makes a difference and 5wk 6 days is not the same as 6 weeks. Also, you could have ovulated later than you thought. All of this is to say, sometimes we have too much knowledge and freak out for no reason. Even science is not exact in this instance. Good luck!
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 08:16 AM FlagDH here who has gone through enough fertility issues to know entirely too much about female anatomy and ob-gyn issues - short answer- best thing to do is relax and try to think happy thoughts (and maybe have some yams and orange juice- both very good for early developing fetus). primitive fetal heart does not even start beating (let alone be detected) until 25th day after conception, so you were really right on the cusp- standard practice is not even to be "sort of" concerned until you hit nearly 7 weeks without detectable heartbeat (6.5 weeks), and if ob has "old/bad" equipment, sometimes even takes longer (because even an "advanced" fetal pole at that stage is 5 mm, and likely still around 2-4 mm, where even top ultrasounds have difficulty detecting hb). Also, although date of ovulation is obviously a good benchmark of conception, it often takes a day or two for actual conception to occur, which explains 6.1 versus 5.6 discrepancy.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 08:17 AM FlagAt 6 weeks, you should see a good heartbeat so sounds like you may have ovulated a couple days later than you thought. Good luck tomorrow!

It makes the fall a bit more busy, but it's no where near a full time job.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 07:53 AM FlagMe, too. I've heard people with demanding (mom who is MD at bulge bracket ibank, for example) say this. They are exaggerating, but I think the point is that running around to these appointments (if you apply to 10 schools, at 3 visits each, that is 36 mornings out of the office in a 3 month period, so you are potentially out about 50% of the mornings) plus getting and completing application and essay, researching school, getting rec letters/school report etc is a lot of physical time and mental energy.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 07:57 AM FlagThis is why 10 schools is too many. A reach, a safety, and two or three in the middle.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 08:28 AM Flag10 is not too many if you really want private. Lots of people get SO - even the connected ones. There is a lot of competition. You do what you have to do if you work FT and have to go through the process with this many schools in the mix. You need to be super organized and you need to realize that you can't do everything. Personal stuff takes a back seat until the process is over. Leaving work in the middle of the day means that the work needs to get done at some point- typically in the late evenings. I don't know of anyone who will admit to using a consultant. I suppose people do though....

Of course he said it in rhyme. Everyone gasped.

Well.. not being snarky, but why don't you give the video a rest. It's rubbing salt in the wound. How has she been since? Eight years is a long time to carry resentment. Maybe you need a gno?
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 05:25 AM FlagI think there is more to this than just a speech. Ppl say awkward things all the time, but if she was your very close friend you would be long over it. Could there be other issues here?
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 05:28 AM FlagOP Hmmm. I don't know, really. What bothers me is that she thought (thinks) of me that way, and that she publicly represented me that way. Is that what you mean by other issues? Not trying to be dense.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 05:31 AM Flagthe general formula for a wedding speech is start w/ a funny, not inside joke, tell two vignettes that are charming and point out the person's strengths, one that is charming but points out a quirk, wrap that into a heartwarming story about the couple and how together, the flaw is erased, end w/ story that ties back to opening joke. if her story was part of your quirk and ended up saying how amazing your dh is, she did the right thing and youare enormously oversensitive.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 05:33 AM FlagOP OK, thanks all. Upon further reflection, I can say I was also bothered because she didn't really say anything at all about me -- why I'm a good friend, my strengths or accomplishments, anything. Yet she went on and on about how great my dh is. I didn't ever feel she was hitting on him, just that I was overlooked I guess. DH's brother had already given a great toast, so I was hopeful someone would "represent

Well if it really, really bothers you then get it re-edited.
[ Reply | More ]04.09.12, 05:35 AM FlagI have seen this kind of thing happen at a couple of weddings, and it happened at mine (in my case, the speech involved a LOT of profanity, as in the F-word). Luckily we did not do video at our wedding! I say, let it go. People are nervous, they have had a few drinks, she probably did not really think through what she was going to say and I doubt it was a true reflection of what she thinks about you. Also, your daughter will probably not notice or care, and I really doubt she will be interested in watching the video more than once or twice.

Probably the picture right to the side here, probably already has you judging this show. If so, Netflix’s description of the plot may turn you off still further: “Journey to the enchanted land of Equestria, where young unicorn ...
