Is the spouse of a cousin also a cousin or cousin in-law?

I always use the phrase ';my cousin's wife'; or ';my cousin's husband';, as in ';John, may I introduce Martha, my cousin, and her husband Bill?';





';Cousin-in-law'; is accurate, but I have rarely heard it used except as a joke. It is an awkward phrase. I have rarely heard the term ';half-cousin';, either. If your father has a half-brother, he would be your half-uncle and his children your half first cousins, but most people I know just say ';cousin';.





If you want to really confuse people, and your situation warrants it, you could introduce someone as your ';half second cousin once removed in law';.Is the spouse of a cousin also a cousin or cousin in-law?
Depends on where you are from.





She could be your grandma if you lived in the south.Is the spouse of a cousin also a cousin or cousin in-law?
Cousins are related to you biologically (by blood), and you have an ancestor in common. Your cousins spouse is normally related only by marriage. It isn't impossible that you share an ancestor, way way back.


Far more common to use the term ';my cousins husband or wife'; as the case may be.
Well, in Chinese culture, cousins are actually extended brothers and sisters. My cousin is getting married, and I've always considered her as my older sister. So her spouse is sorta like a brother.





In White culture, usually the spouse of your cousin isn't anything to you as you're not related to them. It just depends on the way you want to think.

In-law
OFFICIALLY COUSIN-IN-LAW BUT AWKWARD. I WOULD EITHER SAY COUSIN'S HUSBAND/WIFE .
Cousin in-law!
you can call them your cousin in law if you want to be pedantic. they are no blood relation to you.

What do you say to a friend whose spouse asked her for a divorce?

She has been telling me about the woes of her marriage for quite a while. However their problems seem to be the average marriage squabble that many married couples go through.





She said his exact words were, ';I dont love you any more.';





How can one fall out of love after ten years of marriage? I dont get it...





I hugged her as she cried but I was at a loss for words....





The only thing I could say, was that I would be there for her....What do you say to a friend whose spouse asked her for a divorce?
people fall out of love everyday...there could be alot of reason why it happend only her husband knows why he himself feels this way. all you can do is be there for her...try and get her out of the house to do a girls night out to take her mind off all this drama. If you yourself are married i would not recommend talking about how wonderful your marriage might be only cause it will hurt her just cause she does not have that no more. good luck, u seem like a good friend i wish i had someone like you around when my marriage went to crap lolWhat do you say to a friend whose spouse asked her for a divorce?
There are many reasons why a man would tell his wife that after ten years. He could have another woman or he could be going through a age crisis. You did not say how old they were but sometimes marriage gets dull and routine and people think they are not in love any more. Sad thing is that they really are. She is the same person he fell in love with but the environment and things have become dull.


Men can say some pretty cruel things at times and not mean them at all. Since he has ask her for a divorce I would say there was another woman in the picture..


All you can do is try to help her through this. Try to take her out and do things so she is not alone. Take her somewhere that maybe other men might be. The feeling of other men looking or flirting with her will at least give her some confidence which she will really need right now since he is distroying it by leaving her.
and you have say the right thing
You did what a good friend needs to do .
listen to her... cheer her up with things she like to do.


have an all girls night and do some male bashing so she an release some anger (like on Waiting to Exhale) rent it too so you all can laugh about it.


be there for her... she's going to need you.


don't let her get depressed. even when she wants to just crawl up in a corner and be sad...still be right there for her...don't let her do anything stupid either like beat him up or his next girlfriend...


it's going to hurt and take her a while to be her chipper self.
I'm sure that was all that needed to be said. Sometimes we dont want to hear any feed back, we just need a shoulder to cry on and a friend to listen to us.
After a long marriage, one DOESN'T fall out of love....one falls IN love with someone else.


Happened to my ex, sounds like it happened to her husband, too.


Tell her she will someday be HAPPIER without that shitty man....I know I was!!!
i would just be there for her when she wanted to have a safe person to talk about her grief. the man did not just fall out of love, he is seeing someone else and probably has been for awhile behind her back. people will make up anything, to end a marriage when they have someone else. he fell out of love some time ago, and the other woman is giving him ultimatums.
Exactly what you've already said. Mostly what your friend will need now is for you to listen.





I would try to refrain from insulting the guy, just in case they get back together.
How do you fall out of love with someone after 10 years of marriage ? With the help of another woman that's how and you can bet that is what is going on with her husband. My husband said those words to me after 18 years of marriage and come to find out it was over another woman. Tell her to check out some of his female co-workers and she will find the reason why her husband fell out of love with her. You did all you can do for her just be there when she needs someone to talk to.
There is not much you can do, but it is helpful and you are great person just to be there for her when she needs a shoulder to cry on. Sometimes its hard to say anything when you have not been through it yourself. You should remember though that she will always be greatful to you for you support sometimes actions speak louder than words.
You said exactly the right thing. When I'm upset I just need to vent and don't want to listen to advice for 15 minutes on how to deal with a problem.
Leave!
you said the exact right thing... i know exactly how she feels. the best thing for her to do is realize that if he really wants to leave she should let him go. If she was talking to you about '; the woes of her marriage'; that is a problem in itself. she should have been trying to fix the problems. good luck to her and hope it works out.

If your spouse became abusive towards you would you stay or leave?

why or why not?





That includes verbal abuseIf your spouse became abusive towards you would you stay or leave?
I don't tolerate verbal abuse but it won't make me give up on the marriage. I will harp my objection until it is accepted and stopped. This is because I believe a successful marriage is impossible when one is feeling less of a person compare to the other.





In the other hand, physical abuse is a no no. It is a mental illness, a serious matter where one must draw a limit. If it happens regularly one must leave no matter how much he says his love is.If your spouse became abusive towards you would you stay or leave?
Leave. If they don't have the compassion or the emotional control to keep their anger in check, then I don't want that type of person in my life and especially in my future children's life. A marriage should be about two loving people in a committed relationship. If there's abuse, then I consider the committment null and void.
It depends on the situation, if it was a new thing and you were having problems, if it passed after these were sorted and time has passed then cool, but if it was constant, or when he drank or was in front of the kids and you did nothing to deserve it, then yes leave. It is easier said than done, especially from people who have never been through it, but the person being abused (mentally or physically) will one day get to a point and not be able to take anymore.





What the person should not do is blame theirselves which so many do. No-one is perfect in relationships, and they take lots of hard work, but no-one deserves any kind of abuse when it is uncalled for. Ever.
If it was verbal we'd be in counseling before the sun went down today. If it was physical I'd find another place to stay for my safety. I would do everything in my power to fix the problems in the marriage and heal from the abuse. I am not a believer in divorce except under extenuating circumstances.
If it was physical, I'd throw his sorry *** out on the street so fast he wouldn't know what hit him.





If he did not have a history of verbal abuse and it was a one time thing, I would wait until he had calmed down then tell him that that kind of talk is not acceptable, this was strike one, and that when I play ball, there are only 2 strikes.





Shortly after we were married, my husband and I had an argument. He got so mad at me that he picked up my makeup bag and threw it at the wall. It broke open and my blush went everywhere. I did not say a word to him. I calmly picked up the pieces and tried to clean up the mess. He tried to apologize and I didn't say a word. The next day he tried to make a joke about it, and when I gave him a look, he said ';too soon to joke about it?'; I looked him straight in the eye and said ';It will always be too soon';. We've been married for 7 years, and he's never had another outburst like that. The blush left a stain on the carpet that I couldn't get out, and I thought it would be a good reminder to him of what an asinine thing he did.
Say to him(her) your husband who respects you, that if gustaria that treat this way, that respects the place where they live please and it(he,she) tries to give 100 % to him of you in order that it(he,she) does not have to protest, sees the change in you and your you can claim, and say actions(shares) to him(her) they erase(smear) passions that it(he,she) treats you please well. God blesses you
You could wait it out and see if it gets better but it won't. Once the abuse starts, it only gets worse. There are deeper problems that lead to this but once it starts down that road, you can never turn around. If a man would do that to a woman, they have no self respect and don't deserve that woman anyway.
My now ex-wife *did* become abusive--mentally, physically, verbally. I endured it for nine years for the sake of the kids. I asked her to see a doctor, she refused. Finally, I ';voted with my feet'; and left her (14 years ago).





Our two sons are now 20 %26amp; 22. They live close to me and want nothing to do with her. I got the best part of our otherwise grim marriage.
it would have to depend on how bad it was i mean i dont want to be with person that hates me i mean there are to many people out there to be in a realtionship that she hates you or he for that matter.but i would try to make it work first then find somebody else. that just my opion.
I'd hit the road, or have the abuser hit the road like I did. I caught him cheating with another woman in our house, threw his clothes in a garbage bag, and tossed him out on the street.
I would say leave before it's too late. Some people are afraid to leave their abusive spouses because they're afraid what they'll do to them if they do.





So leave as soon as you notice any abusive behaviour.
I would have to leave, because if he does it once, he'll do it again. and i feel i can do baad on my own, i dont need any help. and i wasnt put here for any man to mistreat me.
leave without question





I was raised in an abusive home and my childhood was full of fear and bad feelings all around. That kind of environment is not tolerable for anyone.
Leave. Life's too short not to enjoy it. I deserve to be treated well. Time is the one thing you cannot get back or replace. Enjoy as many moments as you can.
I'd leave because I've been through it as a child [mainly verbal] and there's no effin' way I'm going through it again as an adult.
Leave, there's no need to stay with a man that makes me feel like sh*t verbally or physically. I mean, if you're with him that should be because you love each others!
It depends if something else was going on in their life and they were taking it out on me I might see them through it. If it was over nothing then yes I would leave.
verbal i would say stay %26amp; try to work it out for awhile if this behavior is new. if nothing works, leave. physical - i'd be gone the first time!
I would leave and wouldn't think twice about it. I don't put up with any bs - ever.
I would leave, nobody should have to deal with abuse.
I guess you really can't say what you would do unless you were in that situation.
Leave now don't look back. It will only get worse.
leave asap

  • Does a spouse have the right to say no to daycare?

    My husband is out of town, and my babysitter bailed on me so I looked into a daycare that is right up the street they said they had a opening but my husband said no!!! they are not being put in daycare, He is either saying for me to stay home or keep my 13yr old home to watch them. I dont think his ideas are right...Does a spouse have the right to say no to daycare?
    Of course he does, they're his kids too, why do some women think parenting decisions are just theirs??Does a spouse have the right to say no to daycare?
    If he's not there to help out and you have no other options, you do what you have to do.





    Do you trust your 13 yr old with this full responsibility? I'm not sure how old your other kids are but 13 is still realtively young. That's a big job. (And isn't the 13 yr old at school? Why should he/she miss school to babysit?)





    Honestly, my son has been in daycare since he was 3 months old. He's not growing an extra head and he's not coming home with funky diseases. In fact, he loves his daycare and all his friends. He comes home and tells me stories about his day and how much fun he had.





    If it's temporary, I don't see why he can't compromise. Is he not willing to compromise with you?





    ** ADD **


    I agree that both parents should work together. It's not ';I gave birth so I decide'; as a mother. And it's also not ';what I say goes cuz I'm the man'; as a father.





    You absolutely have to compromise! It goes both ways...
    When there is a situation in which my wife is the one that must make the final determination I don't command her to do anything. I don't tell her NO she can't. If I had a problem with daycares I would tell her my reasonings and she would consider my opinions in context of the situation she is facing. If she ignores my opinion than perhaps next time I'll make sure I'm present to resolve the issue myself.
    all 3 of my kids were in daycare. My son, who is now 17 is always on the honor roll, made it to semi finals in the spelling bee in middle school. All 3 of them are the most mannerly kids around (this is from reports from teachers, our pastor, my siblings, neighbors, etc...not just my opinion)





    I fired 4 babysitters with my second child. I tried live-in, live-out...didn't work.





    Daycare have more structure. They learn more. They watch less TV and get homework help. Sure you have to do your research, but you can find at least 1 that works for you. Your husband is not being reasonable.





    Don't give up your job just because you are forced to. Let that be your decision. I tried that stay-at-home cra* with my 3rd one. It wasn't for me. I had a hard time trying to get my earning back to what it was before I quit.





    Do what's best for you. A 13yr old can participate in afterschool activities and then the school bus can take her to a decent daycare for a few hrs. She/he will meet new friends and have a blast. At-home babysitters are highly over rated. They just want more $, go through your personal stuff, use your things, laze around your house and watch soap in 1 room while the kids run amok.





    Just my 2 cents worth.
    I would want to know specifics from him - Why no daycare? Is it the money or is it some uneducated neanderthal - ';I can work to take care of my family - Wife stay at home take care of kid'; routine.





    Personally, I believe children do much better in daycare (better socialization, better routines, better safety) than sitting in a babysitter's house all day.
    Do what you have to do...my daughter has been in a center since she was 6 weeks old and has loved it and thrived in it...Your spouse will get over it. If he really wants them to stay home - tell him to come home and take care of them himself. If not - he needs to respect your decision.
    Of course both parents have the say, but he is not there. He is making it very difficult on you with no input on how to solve the problem. Staying home is not a solution, your place of employment gets tired of babysitting problems as an excuse. You better communicate with him and tell him his options are ridiculous and unreasonable.
    Have you considered the cost?





    Enrollment takes time as well, you have to have shot-records and what not filed with them to prove their immunizations are up-to-date.

    What do u do about a Bipolar , Manicdepressive spouse. Or who can you contact?

    I agree with what other people have said about getting your spouse to a MD, a therapist and on meds.





    For her %26amp; you...Google: NAMI %26gt;%26gt;Bipolar





    They have a national # and have state branches. They have info; family support groups; educational groups; support groups for people with bipolar; referrals.





    Good Luck to you.What do u do about a Bipolar , Manicdepressive spouse. Or who can you contact?
    Been there done that, and I would never recommend staying with anyone like that unless they took medications for the problems. Get her to the hospital, and they can get her admitted to a mental hospital for help to get her on the med/s she needs so she can get better.What do u do about a Bipolar , Manicdepressive spouse. Or who can you contact?
    You need to get your wife to see a psychiatrist immediately so she can begin to take the medications she needs to get leveled out. This is not an easy process or an easy fix. Bipolar disorder is a lifelong battle and disease with no cure at this time. The only hope are the medications she MUST have and take faithfully. If she resists a psychiatrist then, at the very least, get her to see your family doctor. You can explain the situation to him/her. Good luck!
    get that person medication and see a physician. it can and will get worse!
    You cannot really do anything except encourage him/her to get help, unless they harm themselves or you, or someone else hears them say they are going to commit suicide. Sorry.
    I have one too. GEt her on meds, but she needs to do it herself. If you can't convince her, wait until she's level to approach her, too manic or too depressed could set her off and lay the groundwork for stubborness beyond comprehension! Tread lightly. If you love her, you'll help her. With meds she will be a complete differnt person.
    Will she see someone willingly?


    A shrink, a family doctor.


    Get her on medication


    If she is a threat to herself(saying suicide stuff)or a harm to others(threatening to hurt others) you could call 911 for a section 12 admission to a mental ward at the hospital


    My prayers go out to you,good luck

    Does your spouse have the same color eyes as you ?

    I have brown eyes but I really like guys with blue eye but sometimes I think guys with blue eyes would only like girls with blue eyes because blue eyes are so beautiful even if I've dated a lot of guys with blue eyes... am I mistaken ?





    But doesn't mean I dont like guys with brown eyes........Does your spouse have the same color eyes as you ?
    A person's personality should overshadow their physical characteristics. Otherwise, your relationship will be very shallow. It really doesn't matter what color the persons eyes are if you have a strong relationship.Does your spouse have the same color eyes as you ?
    stupid ??????
    I have brown eyes...and his are nearly black....and so is our daughter's eyes....
    Yes, both green, but that was accidental. He also has the same values, and that, my dear, is what's important! That WAS NOT accidental.
    We both have blue
    I dont think eye color really matters. Its the personality of the person the eyes are attached to!
    Nope Mine are green greyish his are blue
    I have blue eyes , my wife's are brown . If they were any other color , it would have made no difference to me .
    I have green eyes, the husband has brown, the oldest daughter has blue like both grandmother's and my youngest daughter's are brown.
    Mine are light blue %26amp; his are dark brown. I don't think he has a preference though because his exes look nothing like me %26amp; I think they both have brown eyes.
    I have green eyes


    My husband has beautiful blue eyes.
    Yes, we have the same color eyes.





    BTW - I think you have put WAY too much thought into this subject. It is seriously NOT important.
    Any color eyes are fine with me...however I have a severe weakness for hazel green eyes.
    Yes you are my man has blue eyes and I have deep brown eyes, I am sure he has dated people with the same color eyes but I dont care to know that cause he is mine now! lol
    i have golden/green hazel, my spouse has olive green. and both of our sons have green eyes. which makes me very, very happy!
    My husband has blue, I have brown. Our son got my eyes.

    What to do when you think you're not the most important thing in your spouse life, work comes first?

    She's a model and she really is good at what she does, she has a lot of potentia, l but sometimes I wish she could focus more on me and on the relationship. I would really love to marry her and have a normal life with her, because she's the best thing that has ever happened to me, but sometimes I feel it's only a dream.What to do when you think you're not the most important thing in your spouse life, work comes first?
    It is difficult to have a ';normal life'; with a model. To make money, she is always on the go, always promoting herself and ';flaunting'; her qualities because that is her job. She is a living clothes hanger for designers and businesses. There is a lot of stress and pressure. (I'm a fashion designer, so I know)





    It doesn't sound like you can reconcile your relationship with her career choice. Have you talked to her about this?





    You say it feels like a dream. Maybe then she's not the woman to settle down to a 'normal' life with.What to do when you think you're not the most important thing in your spouse life, work comes first?
    Grow up. One day kids will come first.
    Mate.. i hate to say this, but work does come first because it is a necessity.


    if you want to marry her, marry her for who she is without trying to change her.

    Work should always come first. Dont trust. Think rationally.
    Feel lucky she's not putting other people first.

    does anybody know how much to sponer a spouse here in Canada,she is from the philippinesDoes anybody know how much to sposner a spouse to live in canada she is from the philippines?
    Check out the CIC website where you'll find all the information and the forms you need. They even have an application calculator feature so you can figure out the total cost. You don't say whether your spouse is still residing in the Phiilippines or living here in Canada. There are two distinct applications for sponsoring your spouse, one for sponsoring someone who is residing outside of Canada and another if they are residing here already.





    For an 'outside of Canada' application it's just over 1,000.00 including the permanent resident fee, your wifes applicant fee, and your sponsorship fee. Add 150.00 for each child (minor). Check out the CIC site, use the calculator and call the toll free number if you need more assistance. How long you wait for a live agent depends on when you call needless to say.

  • If your spouse is subject to identity theft, are you as well?

    like say your spouse's identity was stolen, could your's get stolen as well? or would that be more likely to happen if you have joint credit cards, bank accts, other kinds of accts, etc.? any info is appreciated!If your spouse is subject to identity theft, are you as well?
    Yes, your joint accounts are in jeopardy. Contact the 3 credit reporting services and put alerts on both your names.If your spouse is subject to identity theft, are you as well?
    When in doubt, put both names on fraud alert through Trans Union Fraud Dept. Their toll free # 1-800-680-7289. They'll notify the other 2 bureaus and must be renewed every 90 days in order to keep it active. What happens then is if someone tries to open an account with your info, they must notify you first to verify that you are applying for that credit card.
    It's quite possible. But if it's simply for identity to leave the country or something, I don't think the thief would need any of your information.
    Anyone can be the victim of identity theft. Your identity could get stolen also. Why do you think it could not?

    What are advise/statistics on remarrying your ex-spouse?

    Been divorced over a year, we are both having second thoughts. Well I say that, she says she made a huge mistake.What are advise/statistics on remarrying your ex-spouse?
    I think you have a good shot IF your ex can specifically define what her huge mistake was. And, I don't mean divorcing you. I mean, what did she do wrong in the marriage that led to the divorce? Since it takes two to tango, you must answer the same question. What did you do wrong that contributed to the failure of your marriage? If neither of you have learned your lessons about what you did poorly in your marriage, you are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. Rather than rely on statistics to decide whether or not to remarry, base your decision on the specifics of your situation. People who learn and grow from their mistakes tend to be far more successful in life than those who do not.What are advise/statistics on remarrying your ex-spouse?
    There's a joke about re-marrying your ex that goes like this: Its like when you take out some milk from your fridge, discover its gone bad... and put it back in the fridge... and you think ';Well... maybe it'll be better tomorrow';.





    All the things that she did that annoyed you the first time you were married, she will still do. Only now she might have added a bunch of other annoying things.





    However, it all depends on both of you. If she left you, are you over that hurt? When you think of her, do you remember what it felt like when you got served for divorce? If you left her, are your reason's for leaving her no longer valid? Were they valid to begin with? Did you both take on new partners? Have you both been tested for STD's?





    I would tell you that if you are going to make it work this time, you need to make sure that what didn't work the first time is resolved. Maybe counseling... maybe just long talks, or self help books. It depends on you and what you both do to make this work. Are you both committed to the idea of starting again?





    I would tell you that taking things VERY slowly is a good idea. Have date nights... spend some time together, and some time apart. Get past the intial rush of ';love'; and see where you are a year from now in terms of your emotion. Ask her why she wants to get back after the break up.... and ask yourself the same question.





    Good luck to you...... I sincerely hope that things work out for you.
    go for it, then you can write a book called , to hell and back for the secound time
    I would never remarry but if i loved him then i would just get engaged forever that way its easy to jump if needed!





    Charlesj has hit the nail on the head!! lol!!
    you gotta think about why you got divorced in the first place.
    I've known two couples that did that. One worked (been remarried 8 years so far), one didn't (they lasted about 6 months). I will say that the one that didn't work, both of them have been with several other people since, so they just weren't the marrying type.


    I would just caution that whatever came between you before needs to be resolved before trying again. It will be easier to leave the second time, than it was the first, if things haven't changed.

    Is it true that you cant terminate a parents rights unless you remarry and new spouse adopts your kids?

    I live in TN and my fiance has 3 kids whose mother has not seen or talked to her kids since 2002 and she has not paid any child support. The state can not find her and he was told the only way for him to terminate her rights was for us to get married and me to adopt them. I thought he could get her for abandonment .Is it true that you cant terminate a parents rights unless you remarry and new spouse adopts your kids?
    In Ohio, at least, they will not terminate parental rights unless someone else is there and willing to take on that obligation. They will only terminate if someone is willing to adopt the child.





    Abandonment would be the reason the court would use for the termination so that the adoption can take place.Is it true that you cant terminate a parents rights unless you remarry and new spouse adopts your kids?
    the only way to terminate a parents right is for them to agree to it in court
    Unless the mother is dead, no one can terminate her parental rights except HER. Being married doesn't have anything to do with it.





    If she doesnt' come around or get in contact with anyone at all for a period of 7 years, your fiance can apply to the courts to have her legally declared dead...providing her family goes along with it.





    Then, he can have the mothers parental rights legally removed.....





    Until then, there is nothing he can do...only the mother can do it.





    Abandoning a child doesn't mean that the parental rights can be terminated.





    Have him talk to a lawyer.

    Have you ever been so mad at your spouse that you punched an inanimate object?

    To avoid doing or saying something you'd regret? Today we had an argument that ended in him calling me an f-ing idiot, and that made me see red. My ex husband was verbally abusive and I cannot stand being talked down to. I got so pissed off that I punched my dresser drawer hard enough to crack the front of it. Not a smart idea, I know, but it was better than the alternative....Have you ever been so mad at your spouse that you punched an inanimate object?
    Yes, I have. It hurt too.Have you ever been so mad at your spouse that you punched an inanimate object?
    Silly girl, who suffer the pain? You, isn't it? And now drawer is crack, got to get it repair, money involve. Next time, just stay calm and walk away from him. Tell yourself, you are not a f..ing idiot, the one who called you this , is the idiot.
    yes the next week i started attending domestic violence classes after the first month of attending i wanted to graduate knowing a about domestic violence there are ways to prevent it escalating in to violent behaviors of domestic violence (good luck)
    ha i was so pissed off i punched him without realizing. i dont agree with physical voilence but it was something he deserved and needed a smack of reality and what im going to do when things get the way they are. i dont know i know how it feels.
    Nope, never. I've also never been called a f-ing idiot. Or an f-ing anything, for that matter.
    wish my ex wife acted like that she punched me in the face three different times. I never raised my hand at her though, my voice a couple of times but yeah she even kicked me one time.
    no i dont partake in domestice violence. I can control myself.
    I know what you mean. I once threw a glass at my apartment door so he'd have to go out the window.
    I've punched a wall before. Better to take out that frustration on the wall than a person!
    Al the freakin time!
    yep, never touched the spouse though never will
    yes i am affraid i have.
    I've punched walls, doors, thrown plenty of things..lol. I'd agree with you..it's better than what could've happened.

    What are your date night plans with your spouse tonight?

    Money is very tight.


    We will either go to the park with a blanket, go to the marina and look at boats, or go to PetSmart and pet animals up for adoption.


    All free, all fun.What are your date night plans with your spouse tonight?
    We are going to a restaurant with the kids, then home to watch a kids movie, during which i'll probably excuse myself and go wack off, then i'll head to bed early and my wife will stay up watching the 10,213th movie she has ever watched.





    There's a small chance that during dinner she will wink at me and draw a little heart on a napkin and then in the car she'll lean over and whisper in my ear ';honey, after the kids go to bed tonight, let's watch some of those adult DVD's you bought me, and we'll use those backrub gels while we watch them';... and then I will feel my forehead to check and see how winter fever is causing me to hallucinate.What are your date night plans with your spouse tonight?
    Since when is *Friday* date night?





    Ya ignernt Tuscaloosa dirt floor peckerwood!








    KIDDING.








    No date night for 12, almost 13 years. She has ';self-image'; problems no doctor on the planet can cure.





    So it's Bloody Marys made with Belvedere vodka, online poker, and Turner Classic Movies playing the background (it's Oscar month!). Wait for her to go to bed at 11:30, sleep on couch until 3 AM, then go upstairs and sleep on reclining chair in man cave until 6 AM then get up and do it all over again! Yes!
    *dies laughing*





    date night?! i have 4 kids...i think the last date night i had was in 2001!





    usually we cuddle on the couch and listen to our brood screaming, laughing, fussing, and playing and laugh at each other for our crazy life!
    Well tonite my husband will either buy my supper or cook for me, since I had a horse back riding accident last Saturday, on Valentine's Day! He has been super great all week to me. We have been married for almost 11 years, and I feel very lucky to have him as my husband. We will watch some movies at home and just talk about our day. I will take my pain meds and all with be well with the world.
    thats easy go walk around at the swap meet with his family.





    its a date i could cancel on an say i have to wash my hair . lol





    im not big on anything right now just tired of working all the time.
    Baby's in bed... Just about to have a nice dinner


    (cooked by my fianc茅)


    watching super nanny and then gonna watch dexter


    I love that program! :~)
    She'll read something, eat something and go to sleep about 10pm


    I'll eat something, attempt to close to her and wind up playing battlefield 1942 until 1-2 AM (it'd be later, but i work on saturdays...)
    Take her to a party at a night club, get her drunk and shag her when we get home. The ignorant DOLTS from her high school are having a preliminary 30 year reunion party and I have to go.
    My wife and I are going out to dinner and dancing with her sexually frustrated friend.





    I swear - this came up in the time between when I asked the question and when you posted this.
    He is going to go play gears of war in the bedroom and I am going to go play animal crossing in the living room..





    We need our space!
    he plays ps3, i answer question and i'll go t bed at like 10, and he'll stumble to bed around 2 am. that's our date.
    Dinner and shopping,got to get those unmentionables then show them off.
    dinner and a movie (at home since money is tight) and hopefully a little something more haha :o)
    Going to the casino with my hubbu and best friend to gamble and have a couple drinks
    Probably just watch a movie, cuddling in bed. That's sounds better than going out to me. :)
    No plans, but I want to go to dinner, maybe I can convince him.
    none tonite. we get to go out tomoro nite for the first time in a year... (the joy of having kids...lol)
    He wants to take me to the movies and see Taken. But I'm sick, YUCK!
    Going to my parents for my dad's bday!





    I hope there's cake!
    Stay home, make dinner, have a few drinks and dance to the record player....
    nada, nothing, just drinking a few beers and going to sleep.

    How long did it take you and your spouse to become good at sex?

    For those of you who had the willpower to wait until you were married to make love. How long did it take you to become good at the physical act?





    Did it take a few weeks of talking and practicing until you became an expert on what you and your partner enjoyed, and you didn't need them telling you to go higher, lower, softer, etc?





    Did it take weeks, months, years, or only a few days? How often did you have sex when you were newly married?How long did it take you and your spouse to become good at sex?
    Sex the first year was good...but starting our second year we became more comfy with each other...so things really got hot. The great thing about sex, is that it's always changing. You should always learn new trick.





    And when we were newly married...we had sex about 4 times a week. Now after 10 years...we have sex about 4 times a week.How long did it take you and your spouse to become good at sex?
    Great sex before marriage wild %26amp; crazy%26gt;any where any time%26gt; Then married worst night of my life for the next 12 yrs%26gt;Left the girl of my dreams at the church%26gt;God only know who left with me%26gt;But it sure wasn't the girl I dated before%26gt;So it might get better or not good luck %26gt;Single and Happy%26gt;
    Uh, like the first time!
    Even bad sex feels ';good';!





    BUT believe it or not I think sex is getting better every year! 11 years and going strong and getting better!
    the first day! although it was a bit uncomfortable b/c it kinda hurts the 1st time i enjoyed it after a few minutes b/c we didnt just do it once! the first time hehehehehe


    up to this day we love it
    about 15 minutes
    well. i surely didnt wait till marriage..


    i was pretty skilled at sex.


    all you need is some practice...


    itll get better.
    Just went with the flow.....


    It came naturally.... and it's alway's been great!








    And yes we do it different way's.....
  • oily skin blackheads
  • nose mask
  • Can the spouse of a noncustodial parent sign court papers requesting custody for non custodial parent?

    This depends on State law.

    Have you been put off having a spouse/partner because the people close to you are always moaning how bad it is?

    to have one?Have you been put off having a spouse/partner because the people close to you are always moaning how bad it is?
    No I just think that they got the short end of the stick (the ones being complained about) --nobody likes a complainer!Have you been put off having a spouse/partner because the people close to you are always moaning how bad it is?
    No.


    Because I understand that people ***** about their spouses all the time but would miss them terribly if they suddenly left.





    Although after awhile of listening to them ***** I remind them how lucky they are to have someone when so many people out there are alone with nobody to talk to....that usually shuts them up.
    I think so.......

    My spouse cannot release gas naturally?

    For the duration of her life she cannot recall having released gas (40 yrs).Having problems like bloated stomach and extreme pain in her lower bowels when stressed.In short, most of her other pain may be related to gas in her system. I tried charcoal tablets, but it gave her excruciating lower bowel pain. I thing her system does not allow her to release gas naturally.My spouse cannot release gas naturally?
    Gas is usually a by-product of poor bowel habits in general. You don't say whether her bowel movements are normal. By normal, I mean soft, easy to pass, and at least 1 or 2 per day. If she has constipated, infrequent stools, I think THAT is likely to be at the heart of your problem and needs to be addressed. A psyllium-based stool bulker would be a good first try.





    If she does have good bowel movements, another thing you could try is at least one dose of digestive enzymes each day with a meal. You can buy these easily in the supplement section of any good pharmacy. Digestive enzymes (as the name implies) helps your body digest food more efficiently, which in turn means less gas... a sign of inefficient digestion.My spouse cannot release gas naturally?
    Everyone passes gas. If your spouse has normal bowel movements, there is no reason she should not be able to pass gas. When we digest food in the stomach and intestines, methane gas is formed as a by-product. If the gas didn't escape somehow, we would eventually explode. Are you newlyweds? Perhaps she's embarrased to pass gas or speak about it.





    If she's really serious about this condition, she needs to see a doctor. She may have a bowel obstruction or some other disorder.

    My spouse is emotionally unavailable,patronising and prone to stealth abuse but I have a kid what to do?

    extended family is oblivious;How does one live like this?My spouse is emotionally unavailable,patronising and prone to stealth abuse but I have a kid what to do?
    I don't know, I couldn't. Thank God I never had a child with that man. It would have made it harder to leave. He made it hard enough, I left everything to get away from him.


    I'd say leave, but I know easier said than done. But it can be done, others have done it.My spouse is emotionally unavailable,patronising and prone to stealth abuse but I have a kid what to do?
    You shouldn't have to. I would talk to my spouse to see what is the reason. Maybe seek counseling.
    leave, get out!!!!!!!!!!
    Having a child should not be a reason nor an excuse to stay in an abusive marriage. Just leave him. You deserve better.
    One shouldn't live like that. I'd take my kid and leave.
    What is stealth abuse?





    Once motivated to search that term, I have to say, what a load of hogwash.
    file for divorce..file child support..and move on

    Yes, i'm only human.

    -be happi, live well, rock on.Have you ever thought about leaving your spouse?
    Hi Francesca,


    If i was married i would for you !!Have you ever thought about leaving your spouse?
    the couples need to warm up their relationship often like having romantic dinner, going to different places, taking dance class together....Also you both have to spend time with friends, having balance between family and friends.


    and dont let there be too many disappointments of each other otherwise you will get bored and sick being around each other.


    I honestly want to leave my husband sometimes, so i go out with my girl friends, being little away from my husband, making me feel good and beautiful...Also let him hand out w/ his friends. Then after we come back home, everything goes fine.
    I just got married! So, NO! Not even close! My new husband is my dream guy... he's SOOoooo patient, understanding, loving, respecting, handsome, sexy, romantic, family-oriented, Christian....


    Naaah, haven't thought about ending this happiness at ALL! LOL!
    yes but it doesnt work i have even told him to leave and wanted him to come home soon so now its just easier to both walk away and cool down
    Very seriously several times.

    What is the one thing that causes the most arguments between you and your spouse?

    What subject/matter do you feel so completely different about that it causes constant disagreements/arguing?What is the one thing that causes the most arguments between you and your spouse?
    that I'm still alive, seems to just piss her off. O, and her complete lack of sex drive.What is the one thing that causes the most arguments between you and your spouse?
    His family- They are leaches, wanting to get whatever they can from my husband, money and favors. His mother is young and has not worked a day in her life but she plays sick (only to work not when she goes out with her friends) and my husband is always paying for many of her needs, including when she wants to travel and see her family in her country. I am not selfish and can understand if she needs medical things but vacation and other uneccesary items, specially when she can work. It hurts me she has never even cooked one dinner for her son and he works so hard for his money.
    1. Our collective (bad) attitudes- Bad moods destroy a perfect day. We are both getting better about it, though.





    2. Bad habits- #4 is a habit of mine, I just got used to sort of brushing my emotions to the side. We both have our bad habits.





    3. Lying- He calls me a compulsive liar because I don't spill my guts at the drop of a hat. It pretty much always starts out the same, ';What's wrong with you?'; I say, ';Nothing,'; and then they're off! Compulsive liar seems a little harsh to me. :/





    4. Sarcasm- Oh, this one has caused many-a fights! Both of us are sarcastic, and sometimes we don't realize we do it until the argument starts.





    5. He gets mad if I just don't feel like talking, and he wants to talk the paper off the walls. The thing is, I don't get mad if I want to talk and he doesn't; I just leave him alone until he does feel like talking.





    There are more things, but I don't feel exactly like listing them all





    EDIT: I figure that I would add that my husband and I have never fought about money (or the lack of, rather.) We just hunker down and weather the storm when something like that happens. It's kind of weird that we argue about other stuff but not about money, haha.
    My husband I don't really argue that much except when he forgot about important holidays that he supposed to give me a gift lol





    He use to be a neat freak on our first year of marriage and sometimes makes a comment about my cleaning style , so I told him if he don't like it he do it himself and gave him the broom after that he never pick on my cleaning style again :)
    I'm not married but I'm livin with my boyfriend... i get upset that he may have indifferences aboutmy feelings....... like, when i want him to act a certain way, and he may expect me to act a different way. but the truth is that we just don't know one another very well. We both have to accept things the way they are and that's hard for us to do.
    There is nothing, honestly. We live in a very harmonious home. Very rarely is ever a cross word spoken. That's just not our nature-either of us.





    The biggest thing I can think of is that I want a screen door on the front of our house and he doesn't. We don't have one, but I told him I am getting one someday--even if that day is after he's passed away. I've let it drop for now.
    him forgetting important things like his cell phone or losing his wallet but it is just something that bugs me but we never go to bed mad and they are usually Just disagreement rather than fight but it is not gonna be perfect it is all how you handle the fights is what matters
    1. matters involving our respective children


    2. finances


    3. sex


    4. communication or lack of....


    5. respective ';quality'; time....





    do you want me to continue????

    Did I mention money...lol. we don't fight all that much, but when we do, it's one of those things.
    Actually, we agree almost all of the time about child rearing and discipline, but on the rare occasions when we don't, we can get really angry at each other!
    Her existence....
    Most of the time it's because we don't understand the way the other person thinks of certain things.
    Politics
    You'll find most guys will say sex. We usually want it alot more than our wives. The next thing is about money.
    moaning and nagging.....it never tires her out either :P





    umm thats a good question.........i'll ponder on this and get back to ya





    EDIT: i guess we just get along ok :)
    Money
    Our past. Anytime the past is brought up it's on.


    LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!

    But it's not much.

    What is the one thing that causes the most arguments between you and your spouse?

    What subject/matter do you feel so completely different about that it causes constant disagreements/arguing?What is the one thing that causes the most arguments between you and your spouse?
    that I'm still alive, seems to just piss her off. O, and her complete lack of sex drive.What is the one thing that causes the most arguments between you and your spouse?
    His family- They are leaches, wanting to get whatever they can from my husband, money and favors. His mother is young and has not worked a day in her life but she plays sick (only to work not when she goes out with her friends) and my husband is always paying for many of her needs, including when she wants to travel and see her family in her country. I am not selfish and can understand if she needs medical things but vacation and other uneccesary items, specially when she can work. It hurts me she has never even cooked one dinner for her son and he works so hard for his money.
    1. Our collective (bad) attitudes- Bad moods destroy a perfect day. We are both getting better about it, though.





    2. Bad habits- #4 is a habit of mine, I just got used to sort of brushing my emotions to the side. We both have our bad habits.





    3. Lying- He calls me a compulsive liar because I don't spill my guts at the drop of a hat. It pretty much always starts out the same, ';What's wrong with you?'; I say, ';Nothing,'; and then they're off! Compulsive liar seems a little harsh to me. :/





    4. Sarcasm- Oh, this one has caused many-a fights! Both of us are sarcastic, and sometimes we don't realize we do it until the argument starts.





    5. He gets mad if I just don't feel like talking, and he wants to talk the paper off the walls. The thing is, I don't get mad if I want to talk and he doesn't; I just leave him alone until he does feel like talking.





    There are more things, but I don't feel exactly like listing them all





    EDIT: I figure that I would add that my husband and I have never fought about money (or the lack of, rather.) We just hunker down and weather the storm when something like that happens. It's kind of weird that we argue about other stuff but not about money, haha.
    My husband I don't really argue that much except when he forgot about important holidays that he supposed to give me a gift lol





    He use to be a neat freak on our first year of marriage and sometimes makes a comment about my cleaning style , so I told him if he don't like it he do it himself and gave him the broom after that he never pick on my cleaning style again :)
    I'm not married but I'm livin with my boyfriend... i get upset that he may have indifferences aboutmy feelings....... like, when i want him to act a certain way, and he may expect me to act a different way. but the truth is that we just don't know one another very well. We both have to accept things the way they are and that's hard for us to do.
    There is nothing, honestly. We live in a very harmonious home. Very rarely is ever a cross word spoken. That's just not our nature-either of us.





    The biggest thing I can think of is that I want a screen door on the front of our house and he doesn't. We don't have one, but I told him I am getting one someday--even if that day is after he's passed away. I've let it drop for now.
    him forgetting important things like his cell phone or losing his wallet but it is just something that bugs me but we never go to bed mad and they are usually Just disagreement rather than fight but it is not gonna be perfect it is all how you handle the fights is what matters

    My spouse is not 65 but she is disabled?

    should i file single and claim her as my dependent since she cant work? is this possible? why file jointly if she isnt working?My spouse is not 65 but she is disabled?
    If you are married, you can only file either married filing joint or married filing separately. You cannot file single. Also, your spouse is NEVER your dependent. If you file jointly, you get your personal exemption and hers.





    Besides, with only one income, you are much better off filing jointly than filing single. The tax brackets change at higher income levels for joint than they do for singles.My spouse is not 65 but she is disabled?
    You have to file married, and your spouse is your dependent because she is your spouse. If disabled there may be an additional deduction.
    Married people, including your wife, can only file one of two ways. Married Jointly or Married Separate. She cannot be your dependent.
    I would take the time to consider her medical expenses. If you itemize her expenses and they still are viable enough for you after the % ruling the I would file single. HOWEVER, if it is more financially beneficial for you to claim her and you meet the criteria to do so then that is a good way too. You have two extra days to file this year... this is really worth testing it out both ways then deciding.
    You should file jointly because it has lower tax rates. There's no requirement that both spouses have income.





    Since you're married, you can't file single. Your only choice other than joint is married filing separately.





    Since she doesn't have income, there would be no tax advantage to filing separately even if one of you did have large medical bills or other itemized deductions that are limited by AGI.
    Claim her as your dependent. You might need a letter from your doctor stating that she is disabled but if you do claim her you get more deducted and you might even get money back. Thats always good.
    I am a stay-at-home mom and we wanted to see if my husband could claim me as a dependent. The tax program we used said you CANNOT claim a spouse as a dependent. Sorry..
    No, you can't file as single. And you wouldn't want to. The tax rates for married filing joint are less than the tax rates for a single filer.

    This is on a Sony Vaio notebook computer running Windows XP.My spouse keeps getting PDFs in e-mail but keeps getting ';Buy Adobe 8 Professional';. How to stop it?
    that is spam email.. everybody gets one... it is annoying... you have to install a spyware program to automatically filter out the spam email... it also depends on what type of email system you are on. AOL, yahoo email alreay have an anti spam protection try to increase the security feature.

    My spouse passed away, I will get his 401k, do I have to pay taxes on that amount?

    Usually not. As long as all the rules are followed correctly and you don't take the funds out or do some kind of prohibited transaction. Have your lawyer or CPA review th plan with you to make sure it all goes the right way.





    sorry for your loss.My spouse passed away, I will get his 401k, do I have to pay taxes on that amount?
    No if you do not withdraw the funds and transfer it into your IRA. Contact a tax accountant for full review of all the assets that is being transferred to you because of his passing. Sorry about your loss.

    If you had factual evidence that your spouse was cheating what would you do?

    give him a big tight slap! and then tell him to get lost!If you had factual evidence that your spouse was cheating what would you do?
    He didn't have factual evidence, but he confronted me anyway. I told him the complete unedited truth. He stormed off, and I waited meekly on the couch. He came back and forgave me everything. I've seen it as a new start. I'd been trying to end the relationship anyway, and this really gave me a good reason. Not that I haven't been tempted, but I just repeat to myself ';I will not have an affair,'; because I know that would destroy him, and he won't tolerate it a second time. But then, I actually want to try and make my marriage work. I dunno what's going through the mind of the person cheating.





    (We all make mistakes. I screwed up big time, and am thankful to have a forgiving husband.)If you had factual evidence that your spouse was cheating what would you do?
    If I could punch him in the face and not get arrested that is where I would start. But that isn't reality. I would have to leave, move out with the kids. Make arrangements for shared custody and try to start new. If it is possible and he comes to me about trying again...I would have to consider it but not sure if I would go back. I would also start living a little. Get a social life back. Haven't gone out in weeks.
    I guess unless you have been in this situation you wouldn't really know what to do. First I would want to know why it was done? Ask all the question's I want to about it and go from there! I personally think everyone deserves a second chance. People make bad decisions throughout their lives , and no that doesn't make them terrible people! A lot of people learn from the choices they make. You have to figure out if your marriage is worth fighting for and if so fight with all that you have. You may need to take some time to yourself to sort out all of your feelings. If you are able to forgive then good for you , I'm sure you wont forget for a very long time , but don't constantly throw it in their face if you decide to work things out! Ask all your ??'s ahead of time and once you start over leave it in the past. Good Luck!
    Leave him. I have 0% tolerance to cheating. Cheating would put me at risk of STDS, and humiliation. I couldn't lay with a man that doesn't care enough about me to protect me from that.





    Will you please answer my question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
    I would leave without a trace of where i had gone. I would leave a pic. I found ( of him being unfaithful) under his pillow and I would place a framed photo of me on his dresser, and he would never know what happened to me.
    If I could do it all over again I would not confront him until I had collected every piece of evidence for use in the divorce and slandering both him and his little home-wrecking whore.
    I would show it to him and tell him that i know and then I would leave cause whats the point in staying if he wants someone else? Might as well stop wasting time and start moving on with life before its to late!!!
    Hang his a*ss out to dry in divorce court and leave him without a pot to pee in. Let the mistress find out how much fun he is when he's working two jobs and living on bologna sandwiches!
    I would have him punished him, throw him in the closet and close the door, and lock it... oh yeah but first give him a good spanking!!!
    lots of women choose to do absolutely nothing, and are happy to blame the other woman. Then they moan when the man does it again with someone else.
    I would confront my spouse and then throw them out for good. That is what happens if we ever cheat on each other. There are no second chances.
    Produce it ( print it) and attatch it to the top of his luggage before you throw it out the front door.
    LEAVE!! I will not accept cheating from my husband, and I don't expect him to accept it from me.
    File for divorce. I cannot forgive a betrayal that enormous.

    How to even begin to come to terms with the fact that your spouse and father of your children may pass soon?

    since 2004 my husband has had type 2 diabetes..he has had 2 heart attacks within the past 2 years(1 mild and 1 severe), we still cant regulate his glucose levels.. he has had a couple ketone level scares....


    i did have alot of hope that we could work hard at this and maybe things would get better and be hopeful ,until this latest news came across the news recently that diabetics that suffer mild or sever heart attacks are lucky to live thru the year that they have the heart attack..


    we have 3 kids ages.. 17,15, and13..


    i have thought about this alot and cant imagine how to even begin to think about how to go on and do a good job with our kids without his help.. i feel like i'm giving up already and its so scary..


    any advice would greatly be appreciated...


    thank youHow to even begin to come to terms with the fact that your spouse and father of your children may pass soon?
    Find a good friend that you can talk to when you feel overwhelmed. It is OK to feel like you have already given up, as long as you haven't. Emotions need to be felt ~ Sit down and look at your life and all the good and happiness you have had, be thankful. Tell your husband you love him everyday, we are never promised tomorrow (illness or not), sit your children down and talk to them ~ don't scare them with doom but, prepare them for what may or may not happen. Children are stronger than we give them credit for, they will adapt. Live your life with a smile knowing you have love in your life. If it comes to pass you and your children will be prepared. No one or nothing can take away your fear, your fear is valid but, it doesn't need to overwhelm you ~ your family needs a support system. My husband is a type 1 diabetic and has other health issues, we just try to treasure our time, knowing we are blessed. And we are honest with our child (13) without scaring him and he is also treasuring our lives.....Good luck, God BlessHow to even begin to come to terms with the fact that your spouse and father of your children may pass soon?
    I have type 1 diabetes, I could not get my sugars below 300 for about a year. I am 32 and have already been in DKA coma. My doctors tried everything with no result, I honestly didnt think I was going to live much longer due to all the problems. My uncle in Canada sent me a book on the program that all thier doctors put their diabetic patients on, it is called ';The G.I Diet'; by Rick Gallop. This book has literally saved my life. I was taking insulin 3 to 4 times a day. I have been on this diet for 2 months, i have lost almost 10 lbs and love the diet. You do not sacrafice anything really....Now in the last 2 months I have had to take insluin maybe 5 times. My doctor can't believe it, and now he turns all of his paitients on to this book.





    But, death is part of life and you have to accept it. I came within just a few minutes of dying. I have accepted it, but I will tell you I will never give up. Get the book and at least try it, let me know how it works out. It will take time, you have to go by the book to get results....

    How do you combat an ex spouse talking bad about you to your preschoolers?

    I am going thru a divorce. When my ex has visitation he constantly brainwashes the kids that mommy is bad, and you like daddy not mommy, and mommy is mean, etc. He also takes pictures of himself with the kids like reading books to them, when he never ever did that before. I never talk bad about him to the children, that is their dad. I am afraid the guardian ad litem is not going to see thru his ploys. What should I do?How do you combat an ex spouse talking bad about you to your preschoolers?
    That is just sick.





    Be sure to always tell the kids you love them! It's more important for them to hear, 'I love you,' than 'You love me.' And tell them that it is ok for them to love both Mommy and Daddy even though you aren't together anymore. After all, you might not like their friends as much as they do, either; and that's the same thing; it's ok to like different people.





    And, any time it comes up in principle, tell them that it is not nice to say mean things about other people, even if you are mad at them. But, don't ever say stuff directly about Daddy, as he does. Kids that young will tell where they hear things; so, if asked, there's a good chance they would say that 'Daddy says Mommy is mean,' etc.





    I can identify with your fears, but even more important than any current custody arrangement is the long-term well-being of your children. Hopefully, the guardian will know when kids have been fed lines, but no matter what, you have to do what will be least damaging to the kids, which is NOT try to manipulate them as he is. Good luck.How do you combat an ex spouse talking bad about you to your preschoolers?
    sounds like your ex needs a course in S.M.I.L.E. start making it livable for everyone here in


    Michigan it is a class offered for divorced or soon to be divorced parents who are going thru custody and visitation I believe it's mandatory here now.
    tell him to stop talking bad about you and If he doesn't listen the do not let him see the kids
    When it's time to go to court have your kids speak up and tell all the mean things he says, don't let him take your kids or make them feel bad about you. OR you could just explain too them that daddy is only saying those things causes he's hurt, or you could take the ghetto route and kick his a** or have your family do it.





    Whatever you do don't lose your kids respect or love. Good luck
    Well that is really flat out against the law and in contempt of court if you have any kind of separation agreement/order temporarily in place unti lthings are final. Standard wording is ';no disparaging remarks to the kids about the other parent'; If you don't, get one. Do not take your kids to court to rat on mommy or daddy. Courts do not like that. You can let the court know what's going on and how you know, then the court will decide if they want to speak to your children.





    Seek to modify visitation to supervised visitation.





    You could also try and file a civil suit claiming he is defaming your character and seek some damages. Outta wise him up a little.
    You need to talk to the man. That's really the only sane route out. There's always hurt in a divorce. Meet in a neutral place, tell him the hurt he's causing yoour kids, and the long term negative impacts it could have, and make sure he knows this is unacceptable.





    Beyond that, I truly don't know. You could fight for complete custody. You could get a court order, though I don't think the law really does much in these situations. You could speak to his parents.





    Sorry, but reaching him on an adult level is the only way i see it happening constructively.

    How did you first meet your spouse?

    online 10 years ago been married for 7 years and still in loveHow did you first meet your spouse?
    I was working as a greeter at a car dealership. He came in and applied for a job. The following month, when he started, I flirted my butt of with him, scheduling unnecessary oil changes and things through him (He's a service advisor). One day he wasn't able to get to my car so to make up for it he offered to take me out! We were married two years later. =)How did you first meet your spouse?
    I moved across the country to go to college. I went out with my cousin (who attended the same college) and 'his friend' to a four-wheeler park. The rest is history, we were married less than 2 years later!
    I was working at Best Buy and he was a customer.

  • What are some of the signs of someone who is cheating on their spouse?

    They become distant, sometimes take out thier frustration on you, or other more obvious signs like staying gone for a long time like a weekend, buying his own under wear, and new socks. if a man is married than his wife usually buys this but if he is chesting then he'll do it himself. Or sometimes you just know b/c he is your partner and you love him that much.What are some of the signs of someone who is cheating on their spouse?
    watch for a change of habits. they usually are very quiet.What are some of the signs of someone who is cheating on their spouse?
    A couple of things could be happening. They stay out later than normal or they leave a lot. Another thing is the sex could be getting less and less. Or sometimes they want to do different things sexually all the time. There are alot of things just pay attention. If your spouse is cheating they will get caught. It will come out some how, whether it's 6 months from now or a year they will get caught.
    1. Change in behavior (they seem ';distant'; from you, are less affectionate, seem to lose interest in you sexually, ect...)


    2. Unexplained charges on credit card statements, or bank statements from a debit card.


    2. Unknown consistent numbers (meaning you don't know who's number that is) on cell phone statements.


    3. Unexplained disappearances (meaning ';their working late at the office,'; you call and he/she has left hours ago. Or if he/she is hesitant to tell you where they have been).


    4. When your partner comes home, they immediately take a shower.


    5. Usually, they are constantly accusing YOU of cheating. This is done out of guilt from their own cheating.





    #1 and 5 are usually the biggest signs, and I'm sure there's probably more that I didn't think of.


    Best of luck to you!
    Are they acting differently? Have their routines changed? Are they questioning everything you do? Are they asking you why you took so long running errands? Is he/she not answering the cell phone when you call when they used to answer it on their way home from work? From personal experience, when they start accusing you of cheating that usually means they are cheating. And if you are the first to ask does he/she become very defensive?
    Telltale signs:





    1. Coming home late,leaving early or finding an excuse to run somewhere...





    2. Change in appearance, he--showers more, dresses better%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;she--showers more, wears more makeup then usual and sometimes declines on sex, and gets new lingerie





    3.Making excuses





    4.Accusing...the guilty conscience gets the better of them and they actually start accusing you!





    5.The Final..last but not least......





    They flatly REFUSE sex from their spouse!
    when you find used condoms all over the house.
    Coming late from work, leaving early, change of mood with you , sex once a month not going out with you anywere, more problems at home for anything that might be some signs also mysterious phone calls either home or to his/her cell.
    that won't give you sex anymore or never home as much,seems more distance from you.
    when u start working a lot of overtime and been late at home but the paycheck doesnt reflect it
    Look for a change in schedule. Leaving earlier, coming home later.
    Personality changes. Either they became extremely nice and gentle because they are a bit guilty or bad attitude and gets pissed at everything you do...
    1. going out unexplainabley


    2. being secretive, and not telling you their plans


    3. having the name of the opposite sex in their phone, a name that they have never talked about before to you


    5. talking to someone online, and as soon as you come into the room they close out the program


    6. saying they are going to the store to get groceries, or stuff like that, but you don't need the stuff they are talking about
    signs if your spouse is cheating on you loss of interest in what you do, no longer wants to be around when you are home, only wants to make love to you when he or she wants to. The spouse might be insecure and overprotective about the things you do.
    they don't what to stop ******* you. the get horny. they whant to get you tied. so they can find an excuse.

    If you pass away is your spouse responsible for your car loan if your not on the contract?

    Car loan was purchased under fathers name. He passes away. Does the loan become the responsibilty of the Wife?


    even if she is not on the loan to begin with?If you pass away is your spouse responsible for your car loan if your not on the contract?
    If she didn't sign it then she doesn't have to pay for it. Be warned though they will harass her for the money, bully her, and try to convince her that 'it's her legal obligation to pay' and 'it'll affect her credit'. It won't.





    Most states have updated their laws since the 80's, and don't require any family to pay the debt of a deceased member if he's the only one who signed the contract.If you pass away is your spouse responsible for your car loan if your not on the contract?
    when my husband passed away he had a truck loan that he got before we were even married. the bank it was financed with tried to tell me i had to pay for it. i told them i didn't and they better check with their lawyers. told them i would be happy to turn the truck over to them but i was NOT legally responsible. it took awhile but they finally called me back and told me i was right and to bring them the truck which i did. they turned around and sold it for what they could and wrote off the difference. i have NEVER had it show up on my credit or have any negative effects.
    I don't beleive so. It's who ever signs it. Unless you are the co- signer. Though each contract is different.
    No. Only the person(s) listed on the loan will be responsible for the payment. Once the owner passes away, the family in general will be responsible to either sell it to pay off the loan, or, continue paying the loan and keep the car if all possesions were requested to be kept in the family by the will. the family will have the choice on wether or not dispose of the car, or keep. but the loan will need to be paid either way.
    The spouse would likely have to pay the loan. The personal representative of the estate will have to take care of any outstanding debts left by the deceased.
    Yes normally. All debts pass on to the living spouse. Some states it can pass on to the children.
    Debts don't pass onto the family. But items which have debt can. So unless she wants to lose the car she has to take over payments.

    I don't think it's OK and in four years of marriage never have and plan to keep it that way. I think most people in their heart know it's wrong. They just create rationalizations to suppress there true feelings and follow their biological urges.Why do most people think that its perfectly ok to cheat on their spouse?
    First of all, the decline of morality in general heavily contributes to the increase in infidelity in this country and the world. However I don't believe that people have ceased to understand right from wrong altogether, and that is why they try to cover over their indescretions, thus implying that most people do not believe that it is okay to cheat on his or her spouse.
    ignorance


    immaturity


    morals
    Good question. I don't know. But I do know this....





    If I ever catch my husband cheating, he better run. I won't cheat on him and I expect the same from him.
    I think that if both people are being honest with each other, they can do whatever they want. However, when deception is introduced into the relationship, it's over.





    I personally don't think marriage is something I would want, but I always wonder why a person would get married to someone if they are not ready to be completely honest with each other. Most people expect faithfulness, so why would a person get married if they still wanted to mess around with other partners behind their spouses' backs?





    I don't know why people cheat on their marriage. I am still trying to figure out why people get married in the first place.
    I think the reason it's so ';wildly popular'; is because it's human nature. Different societies set different moral codes by which its citizens live. In our culture, we have deemed marriage as a monogamous relationship, however there are many people who cant deny their carnal urges. It's nature vs nurture. Our nature is to procreate the human race, and our nurture is to live within the confines of socially excepted norms.


    Whether it's right or wrong, I can't be the judge of that.
    nothing makes it okay except the person who is rationalizing about why he or she should do it, rather than working it out or getting out of it. Promises are made to be kept, and at the very least, worked on. We likve in an instant society needing instant gratification, faster and faster computers, etc., and we throw away relationships the minute we aren't as happy as we think we can be.
    I think that most people are selfish people , those who cheat on their spouses, isn't true that when yu marry someone you are suppose to remain loyal to them?
    people dont have belief anymore, nation of atheists all demanding 'proof' before they believe in anything





    no proof of god, no proof of love, - all is money, money,money - show some faith and u will get some love, judge ppl and u wont get anywhere? lol





    if u dont believe someone can convince you they are better for u easier, but you are still unhappy bcos that is not the answer





    we are not also not in a period of 'high culture' anymore, high culture is where you rise above our own animal instincts - at th minute we are revelling in them and destroying our own planet in process

    How often do you and your spouse get professional portraits taken?

    I'm not talking about you and the kids because obviously if you have children you are going to get professional pictures taken more often......I'm talking about husband and wife with no children- how often do you (or did you before you had kids) get your pics taken at a studio?How often do you and your spouse get professional portraits taken?
    I've never had me and my hubby's pic's taken professionally. We have been together for 11 years. He was in a couple of my senior pictures when I graduated from High School but that is it. Pretty pathetic, huh?How often do you and your spouse get professional portraits taken?
    My wife and i only have had our pictures taken professionally once that was when we got engaged and it was the picture that ran in the paper annoucing our wedding other than that we hired professional photographers for our wedding ....we were thinking of doing the chirstmas card thing with our daughter this year ...
    We had the engagement portrait, wedding, 1 year anniversary, then went to every 5 years. We do have kids and have had family ones taken but just of us 5 years seems often enough.
    This marriage, we've never had it done...what's the point? But if it's like a 25 year anniversary or somekind of milestone like that, why not? But my first marriage, in my 20's, we had 2 done. I guess it depends on the occasion and where the two of you are in your life. I'm almost 40 and I just don't see the point in doing a professional photo every few years...candids are much more meaningful and most often have memories attached to them. I'd rather have a snapshot of me and my husband taken at a park when we had one of the best days yet in our marriage sitting in a frame on my desk than a professional one of us where I probably could care less what the date or occasion was. But that's just me...
    Never i think its bad luck
    never actually....it's on the to-do-list
    None actually !!! Kinda sad !!! I need to get some !! Some of the entire family too !! One of those things I've procrastinated on too long.
    we do it every two years...
