Because someone, somewhere, thinks that your parenting sucks. Might as well celebrate it.
It’s been more than 1½ years since my husband generously agreed to see Twilight: Eclipse with me, in exchange for me going to see The A-Team with him. In his folly, we saw Eclipse first, and by time we had the opportunity (read: babysitter) to go back to the movies a few weeks later for [...]
Before I got married, my father filled my partner in on the secret to a happy marriage. “There are only two words you need to know,” he said. “Yes, dear.” That’s it, that’s all. The secret to blissful matrimony, according to my dad, is to simply comply with your wife’s wishes, or at the very [...]
I was reading The New Yorker Macleans People.com this weekend and found out that Brad and Angie are rethinking the whole marriage thing, because their kids are asking about it. I could care less whether Brad and Angelina ever get hitched or not, but in the article, Brad talks about how he and Jolie work [...]
I’ve been thinking a lot about adultery — not in the ‘that would be fun’ way — but in the ‘how would I handle it?’ way. Of course the Sperminator got the ball rolling but a salacious affair at my daughter’s school got me and my husband talking. This particular affair is surprising for it’s [...]
Remember that stage of life where you seem to be going to five weddings each summer? Wearing horrible bridesmaid dresses at two of them (yeah, right, sure I’ll wear it again)? For many of us, those days are long passed and have since been replaced with equivalent numbers of divorces, separations, couples in therapy, and [...]
Posted by Anonymous. This all started 20 years ago I met a cocky big mouth extremely good looking guy that I had watched grow up before my eyes into a startling handsome man we dated a few times and I spent a lot of time at his parent’s house (where he lived at the time) [...]
Posted By D. Once again you were busted. The funny part is, I knew already. I knew her number where she lived and her name. All the while you thought I knew nothing at all. Do you really think I am that stupid? I guess you do, and that is a shame. I knew about [...]
Posted by Anonymous. Sometimes I feel like if I don’t write, my head will explode. I don’t even have any privacy for that anymore. He checks my phone, my internet history, everything is suspect the moment I want a little privacy. I don’t have a blog either. No place to put all the words in [...]
Posted by Anonymous. I’m so sorry, but I’m utterly miserable here. We never touch each other anymore, despite my advances. I asked you if you were seeing someone else and you blew me off. Is she at least prettier than I? I am pretty sure you’re seeing someone else. You come home from a 4-hour [...]
Posted by Anonymous. I’m so confused! I want someone I can’t have. I know I can’t have him because he is too good. If I did have him I’d then feel bad…. feel at fault… even though he can make his own choices. He won’t choose me. … but the yearning is so strong. I’m [...]
Posted by Anonymous. I’m tired. I can’t fight this uphill battle another day. I just don’t have the energy to bridge these gaps anymore. I feel sorry for your crappy upbringing and absentee parents. I know it’s hard to lateral your experience into a connected and loving family life, but people do it every day, [...]
OK folks, don’t panic, but can someone check whether a) Hell has frozen over (I sense it’s either at the bottom of that sink hole in Guatamala or somewhere near BP headquarters) or b) I am, in fact, a monkey’s uncle because I am – wait for it, wait for it – agreeing with parenting [...]
Posted by Anonymous. About a month ago, my husband told me that he felt like I had emotionally pulled away from him. He felt like I didn’t try to connect with him anymore, and that I spent most of my time just trying to sleep. The fact that I would never initiate sex with him [...]
There’s an infomercial that’s currently making its way around the Internet – one that claims a product called The Better Marriage Blanket can solve “the problem in the marriage bed that nobody likes to talk about”. I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that it’s probably not the problem you’re thinking it [...]
Posted by Anonymous. To my husband, There are things I wish I could say to you, that I never have. They get caught in my throat and then just circle in my head. Let me start with I love you, more than you can ever imagine. I can’t imagine my life without you. And yet [...]
