  • Can notifying my son s father by email of out of state move instead of certified mail get me into trouble?

    I asked my son s father who already lives in a different state if he was okay with our family moving to a different state. We would still be flying our son out of the same airport. It was a beneficial move for us also. He agreed and I notified him a year prior via email. I gave him the address before our move and our sons new school. I wasn t aware until after the move that I needed to notify him via certified letter. Can this hurt me later? It s been almost a year since the move. Now my son s father wants primary residential custody and I just want to make sure I didn t make a mistake seeing as his father did agree even though it was through email, that s I thought should count for something.

  • Need advice on my mother-in-law who is currently living with us.?

    My mother-in-law is currently living with us just for five months. She was living in an apartment for the elderly, an apartment where she had independence. We are all moving in five months and her to another apartment. We decided after she offered to have her move in so she could help us save and she could save. The problem is, is that it's been a month now and she has her own room in our house.. She comes out of her room and sits at the kitchen table as stares at me while I parent. She stares at my every move. She doesn't have a hobby or ever try to go do things like she did before. She just comes out of her room when we do and stares. I want to feel relaxed again in my own home, but I can't with her staring at my every move. Not to mention when I go to do dishes even if it isn't much she comes to help and we end up bumping into each other more than anything. She also never says anything hardly at all. I am worried about her mental health and my husband has already encouraged her to go play bingo, read, etc.. I also and ten times more stressed because I have someone watching my every move. So I was thinking about writing some boundaries. We have a sink and small kitchen in the other part of the house. Maybe make that side of the house like a small apartment for her and she can still come to the refrigerator, whatever.. But to just ask when she wants to come spend time with us. Or should I just get her, her own place again? Trying to make things easier for everyone..

  • What are my chances in court do you think?

    So my ex and I share joint custody of our son myself being the main custodial parent. We have always lived in different states, he in Arizona and I in Kansas. He is ordered to pay for the airline tickets for his son to see him. My husband and I want to move to Missouri area which has lower cost of living and better schools. We would ultimately be able to afford a very nice house for rent with a back yard with schools in the area with high rankings. Where we currently live is a small town where houses for rent are few and far between and extremely over priced, the schools are not the great and crime/illegal drug usage is rising in this area. I proposed this idea to my ex whom has to agree with our move because I have our son or I can't move unless I go to court and get the judge's consent. My ex who owns his own business asked why we didn't just move to where he is in Scottsdale, AZ. I explained about the cost of living and we really just wanted a more affordable area until my husband gets done with his Master's degree which he is doing online.He hasn't answered me yet, but what would my chances be in court? Our son would be flying out of the same airport so it wouldn't be anymore cost to my ex. He flies out of the Kansas City, Mo airport. We just want whats best for our family. Please only answer if you are educated in the area, thanks in advance!!

  • How long does it take to get adjusted dependant back pay from the VA?

    It took us six months to get our dependants adjusted. How long does it take to get the back pay for this? We have got a letter as of today with this adjustment, but no back pay money in our account? Does it normally take a few days for this..?

  • When will my husband wake up?

    My husband and I have been married for almost six years. He's very monotone and I don't think an ounce of romance every since we have been married. As a matter of fact he doesn't even brush his hair sometimes. I am pretty classy, and I keep my self up well. I shave legs, do makeup, do hair, put lotion on among a lot of things.. He can't even be bothered with combing his hair. I knew marriage was going to take work, but not sure how to get through to my husband because nowadays nothing does. Now I have other guys messaging me and I we get a long, they pay attention to me that he never does.. Ugh I don't want that though.. I am loyal.. How can I wake my husband up?

  • How far can you park from a no parking sign?

    I read in the Kansas Driver's manual that you can't park in an area as stated by signs. The question is what if the sign says no parking on one block from such and such time, but doesn't say it on the other block on the same side. I am asking because I was approached by a pedestrian when I parked on this block, but no signs were posted on this block. When I asked about the block I was on he just referred to the other signs. Mind you he isn't a police officer but it made me wonder if I was right or he was right or is there something I just don't know about this. Thanks..

  • Should I send my son with his dad before we work this out?

    So I use to live in Minnesota and I share a son with this man in Arizona. We decided to move back to Kansas where my son is orignally from and closer to family. I told my ex (who lives in Az) this months ahead of time through email. I even voice recorded him saying that is was ok for me to move. Our son starts kindergarten so I knew we needed another Agreed Order. I get to Kansas and he is pressuring me to agree to whatever he wants for our son while I am trying to find an affordable attorney. I have to basically seek assiatance because I am broke and that takes few weeks or more. I am our son's residential custodial parent, we do have joint , but because of school his father will see him for breaks. My question is do I have to send my son with his dad before we come to an agreement? He has threatened to keep him before and that is why I am scared. I plan on trying to resolve this in time for his Thanksgiving break, but he might want him for a three day weekend.

  • Should I require this of my son's father?

    I am the residential custodial parent of our son. Meaning he lives with me a majority of the time. Anyway, my ex is a little older and yet a little immature, controlling. Our son will be starting kindergarten and that means he will be seeing his father less. His father lives in Az, we live in Ks. Of course I am willing to work with him and try to make things better for everyone. However, our son use to see his father every other month for two weeks and has a two month summer time. Now he is probably only going to be seeing his father for breaks and every other holiday. I did of course invite his father up to spend time with him, but he refused this saying it would be too much money. I guess I am afraid because he just bought Christian a ticket to visit, but no return yet. He always buys returns and I know he has money. He lives in a two million dollar home. Should I require that he buy a return ticket before he goes to his dad's. He is spending three weeks there. I don't know if it's my intuition or what, but something tells me his dad will tell me later that he doesn't have money for the return ticket after he is already there and Christian will then be missing school!! I don't know I am so worried. I am not even sure what my rights are in this type of situation or if I can even require him to have a return ticket before hand. I feel like I need that. What do you think and any advice would be great thanks.

  • Is it dumb to let certain things/emotions control you?

    This might sound a bit silly to some, but I feel I am a sensitive. I can figure a person out pretty easily, when I hurt, I really hurt and when I am happy I am truly happy. My husband has a tendency to forget about me as well. He spends his time facebooking. He is in the National Guard so he just came back from a four day drill. It's been a week and all he can do is facebook. I just need attention. I am horny too and wondering why he is not. I have lost weight and wear sexy clothing, nothing.. I feel exhausted sometimes trying to get him to notice me. We live in an area where I know no one and we are finally moving back to my hometown (thank God). I feel at least if he ignores me here I will no someone to hang out with girlfriend wise. I am deeply hurt that he is ignoring me, but not sure how to make it better. I try to tell him, but I think he just needs to have a light bulb moment.

  • Do you ever have a problem being too honest or just baring too much of your soul to the world?

    I am kind of thinking of disabling my facebook because even though I live miles away from friends and family I feel sometimes I am too honest on there. I don't post anything dumb or negative. I just feel sometimes I am too honest/nice and I post too much of my soul. After I do I feel dumb and maybe that's just me. I also send messages that I later regret. I feel so silly. It's kind of like when you are in a relationship with a person and you are too needy or too honest with that person and they reject you. Lol.I feel like I should just disable it so I don't post anything silly. It's so hard because I have so many great pics of my kids on there and a lot. Has anyone done the same and should I do this?

  • Why does my husband get soft during sex?

    My husband and I have been married 4 years. We weren't having sex, but once a month for a while. Not sure why because I love sex. One night however, we did have sex three times in a row and I gave him a bj. It was like something awoke in us and we both realized how much we love having sex with each other. We have a daughter that is two so maybe that is why we stopped for a while. I just recently lost a lot of weight, like thirty pounds. So I am feeling sexy, confident. I put on my push-up bra, buy a sexy pair of panties and get all dolled up for my husband the next day. He comes home from work and I make him a nice fancy dinner. We have a little wine. Then we are ready for the bedroom. We start having sex. Then for some unknown reason he gets soft. So I help him by giving him a bj. He gets hard and then I wanted to also having him watch me touch myself. I guess I thought that might really work him up so he stays hard. So we start having sex again and then he gets soft again. I want to clarify I put on something sexy for him to, lingerie. So I am wondering in my mind about what is going on. Then I give him a bj. I don't make him *** during the bj, I just do it enough to get him hard and ready. Sorry if this is tmi, but I have to be detailed about this. I myself am really tight, one finger feels like a lot and that is because I work out and practice kegel exercises. I also am good at controlling them and I know I am not pushing him out. So once again, not sure. Finally I just gave up and turned around and told him there was pretty much nothing I can do. One thing I don't understand is that if he was having erection issues wouldn't he have a hard time getting hard at all? I feel exhausted, unattractive and a little hurt. He tried again with me this morning, but the same thing happened. I told him to just leave me alone. Does anyone know what might be going on? He also isn't really saying a lot. We are pretty close so to me this is hurtful. Last night after I gave up, I went downstairs and just started crying. He was upstairs, but we have this open area so I knew he could hear me. He just slammed the door. I went upstairs and the door was closed of course and he was going to sleep. I guess I was looking for him to come comfort me or something. Tell me it wasn't my fault. I feel so hurt and frustrated. This is my husband and I am young. I am a very sexual person, flexible.. So this really, really troubles me. Can he get viagra at the age of 32?

  • Bringing up an issue with my husband is like pulling teeth? Any suggestions?

    I feel mentally exhausted sometimes. I feel like I can't mention any problems ever to my husband because he can't seem to handle it. So a few months have gone by. We basically only have sex once a month. I haven't said anything up until this point. This saddens me. I have lost a lot of weight and I feel sexier too. When he finally does want to have sex he isn't romantic about it at all. He grabs my breast and says things like "I want some pussy." He has never been that romantic, but he is a smart person and I never thought he would talk like that. I also thought if I had a talk with him that maybe he could work on this. He does see a therapist every once in a while due to his PTSD. So I thought maybe the therapist could help him. Every time however, I mention a problem (which is occasionally) he gets on the defense. I am not attacking him, I just want to better our sex life and our marriage though. I always tell him this too. I am very good at communicating and I stay positive. I just want a better sex life. So the past two months were really good with a lot of laughing. We haven't been fighting our anything. Then recently I got my period and I was a little moody. I even told him that I was on my period and that I was moody because of that. Men don't realize that during that time of the month something happens to your hormones, it's not like we choose to be this way. Lol. So he said the reason why he didn't want sex was because of moodiness. I asked him if he thought I was moody the last two months. He said yes. I said to him that he was lying because the last two months have been great and he even came to me a week ago and told me so. Then he admitted that he was lying to me and that he was just using his emotions instead of his head. I couldn't believe he would just lie like that. All I wanted to do was discuss how we could have more sex and he starts playing these mind games. I guess if he doesn't want to have more sex that is fine, but we are married. I feel so frustrated and I feel like I can never discuss with him how to improve anything, not even our marriage. He gets offended instead of seeing the issue for himself. If I never came to him with these issues, they would never be addressed. He stormed off to work this morning. He gave our daughter an old doughnut. It was two weeks old!! And I asked him, asked him to please give her something that wasn't old. He said "Is there anything else that I am doing wrong that you want to complain about?" He was aggressive and acting like a child. I repeat I am not attacking him, I just want to improve our marriage and bedroom life. Why doesn't he get it or maybe he doesn't want to . I feel like I want to throw my hands in the air sometimes and just give up. That is how frustrated I feel. I know I can't because we have children and sometimes I wonder if he weren't married or had kids if I would even be with him anymore. That's sad, but so true. Any suggestions or has anyone been in my shoes?

  • Does my diet sound healthy?

    I got pregnant and weighed 150 pounds at the time. I of course had gained weight, I was normally 140, a size eight. I gained so much weight and after I had my daughter I weighed 180. I felt very ashamed. This was my second child and maybe my hormones were off, not sure, but I never had energy. I ended up gaining weight over the course of two years. I was 240!! I know, I know.. Lol. However I started this diet. When I am determined, I am very determined.. In a month I went from 240 to 216. I consume 1200 calories a day because I read that is the least amount I could consume and I want to be on top of my game. I also exercise throughout the week. Am I doing an awesome job or am I going over board? My husband worries, but I think I am doing things ok. What do you think?

    So I have gone through my husband going on a deployment and I have had a child. I gained weight as well, but now I am getting back to my old self.

  • How do I get my husband to stop talking about his bowel movements?

    My husband and I have been married for four years. We are comfortable with each other. However, he always feels the need to talk about crapping. I know it sounds funny to others, but it's not. At first I was ok with it, but after a while it started to get gross. I am not attracted to him that much anymore because of it. He also rarely puts cologne on. How do I break this to him in a gentle manner without hurting him? Has anyone else gone through this. At the end of the day I don't mind him sharing things like this with me, but I just wish he wouldn't make it an all the time thing. Sometimes I feel like his sister and like he is trying to gross me out.

  • What else could I do to increase my chances of losing weight?

    I have already lost 20 pounds this month. I am currently 220 and I just thought the pounds would roll off of me faster or is this crazy thinking? I guess I just gathered that I would have a lot of water weight being so over weight. I eat special k in the morning about a cup and a lean cuisine for lunch and a very small meal for dinner. I did exercise a lot this past month, but I think I was pushing myself too hard or not being very careful. I ended up hurting my knee pretty bad. I use to be a size eight, two years ago and my body just isn't handling well with the extra weight. So when I work-out it makes it tough. I am still trying to exercise even with a sore knee and I go outside a lot. Any tips or pointers on what I can do to progress my weight loss in the months to come?

  • What could make our sex better (mature adults only)?

    My husband and I don't have sex that often and I think it's due to us being tired. When we do have sex for me it's really not that great. I really like sex, but something isn't right here. He has admitted in the past that he might get a tiny bit soft during sex and not sure if that is so, but he doesn't feel that big. I was blaming myself for the longest time. I have had a few kids, but I have never had a problem with being loose. I started exercising my kegel muscles and I do exercise almost everyday generally. My husband has gained weight and maybe that is also why he seems to not be so big. Any suggestions? I don't want to hurt his feelings and I just want to resolve the problem. Should we try a cock band or something like that? Thanks in advance for all the mature responses.
