I don't think our marriage is going to work unless I just hold everything in
Q. I won't go into the lengthy background but my wife and I have been together for about 10 years. We've had our ups and downs, nothing big - nobody has ever cheated or anything like that. But the biggest problem we've always had is not that we argue ...

1. She takes YOU for granted. In the sense that SHE knows you will listen to HER "gripes" but she really doesn't have to or want to listen to yours. Apparently, she is of the opinion that ONLY women ca... (read in full...)
My husband admitted to seeking out male friends for me
Q. I've been married to my husband for 8 years; life's been good so far. We met when doing a Christmas promotional thing in the store I worked in at the time. Or so I thought. On Monday my husband admitted to me he'd been online posing a...
A. 19 April 2021: This is just wrong on every level.

Do you think my husband is cheating?
Q. My husband went and got another phone app on his phone. He told me it is to save money. But our current phone plan is only $25 a month. The new one is $20 a month and he went so far as to go through the trouble of switching to an app you can load on ...
A. 18 April 2021: That IS weird.
