This all sounds like the beginning of an awesome roman a clef novel ala The Devil Wears Prada.

Very rarely is a breakup just one person's fault. If I were you, I would wait until he is actually divorced, both to give him time to process the end of his marriage and to ensure that he actually intends to follow through on the divorce. One of my favorite quotations is "Every love story is a story of patience."…
I totally get this. I had a so-so one night stand a few years ago that boost my confidence in a disproportionate amount for the mere fact that it happened.
Hang in there. I was supposed to hear about a job on Friday and now I'm awaiting a rejection notice on Monday. Never easy.
Every couple is different, but I would consider that cheating.
I would tackle the conversation solo, so that my parents could react honestly without offending him. It sounds like they will be ultimately accepting, but it can be hard to shield any initial misgivings.
Yeah, I can see how it would be awkward to bring it up, but maybe he needs a push. You don't have to frame as "You are the worst dad ever," just "I've noticed your daughter seems bored. Kids that age really respond to personal interaction. Do you want to use these games?" And the offer of a car is so nice! This little…
Michael Biehn! He was in Terminator, Aliens, and The Rock, but never became an A-list star.
Grr at the non-involved father. Do you think he would respond to a frank conversation about the kind of care a child that age needs? He honestly might not know the level of involvement a six year-old requires and you have the experience to give good advice.
Yeah, that's not ok, but you are not the worst person ever PROVIDED you take this slip as a wake-up call and sort your situation out. Work on your marriage and avoid one-on-one time with your crush. Or leave your husband and try to date this other guy. But don't be a cheater.
Someone posted that she got an order of protection against him. Hardly surprising.
She also goes to dinner with her parents with balls inside her vagina. Not man balls, but sex toy balls.
I'm leaving for Dublin in 2 days! I'm helping my sister movie into her dorm and then my boyfriend is flying over and we're renting a car, so we can drive around and drink beer and look at castles. I'm super excited because it's our first big trip and he's never left the United States except for Canada.
I think you should give yourself a birthday present and avoid difficult family members on your bday. Have your husband deal with his parents and you just treat yourself to a massage, a manicure, a good bottle of wine, or whatever makes you happy.
Grr. You should call back and ask to speak to the office manager because that kind of poor treatment is NOT acceptable. So sorry you are still uncertain!
It's really hard to deal with that kinds of unfairness. I've definitely had moments where I'm jealous of the perks my hot friends get, but then I see the harassment they have to deal with and the insecurities and I remind myself that we're all going to get old someday and I'm glad I don't have to rely on my looks to…
Good gravy do I feel your pain. I have battled 4 spiders in the past week, one in my car! I try to shoo them out with a broom, but some of them will not take a hint. I'm not too scared of bugs, but I don't like them inside. The worst part is that my boyfriend is TERRIFIED of spiders, so I have to face them on my own.
That sucks. Poor girl. I had a friend in grade school who got yelled at for touching the walls because she might leave fingerprints. Her dad once admonished me for dunking my oreo into a glass of milk. Some people are way too uptight to have kids.
Do you think your dad would be receptive if you told him you missed him and you want him to be closer to you and his grandchild? My only other suggestion would be to tay with another relative or at a hotel.
Do any of the bars have trivia or karaoke nights? Those kind of events can make bars fun, even if you aren't into heavy drinking. Board games and movie nights can be fun too. Or murder mystery dinners. Or mini road trips.
