Who do i choose or what do i do??
By: diana | 26-07-2008
i love my boyfriend and i know he loves me. we been dating for like a yr and a couple of months. everything is great between me and him. but we dont go out to places like a normal couple would. the reason is not enough time, sometimes money. he works way too mutch and is always tire, witch i understand. trust me i know you may be thinking there should be time but trust me on this one theres not that mutch. we never really go out i just see him at his place like 2 or 3 times a week. so thats why i feel this way. thereS this guy that works at a store i use to work. i can tell he has a crush on me, and im not gonna lie he attracts me a lot. i would say too mutch.
its not really his looks but the way he is, sweet, carrying, and friendly. and he dose like me my friend told me he ask for me, and its obvious he likes me. im going to start working there again soon. i have a feeling that theres a chance i may fall in love with this guy. and i know his going to try to ask me to a date. my point is i have a boyfriend witch i know i love. but that dosent give me the attention i want, but i know its not his fault. but like i need attention i feel like this other guy is going to give to me at the work place. with his flirting, and probably talking. i wouldent feel like this if my boyfriend gave me more attention, but he cant trust me. WHAT DO I DO???
Do I love my girfriend?
By: Eugen G | 26-07-2008
What is wrong with me?
I have been in a relationship with a girl in the last 3 years, her name is Laura. She was in the same class with me at the junior high (5-8) and at the same high school and college, but not in the same class. Since high school she started liking me. She started asking me do little things for her. I noticed that, but I felt she is to soft for me and that I should commit to a serious relationship with her.
Once I got hurt by a girl I felt in love with and Laura was by my side. While having my heart broken I said myself, why shouldn't I try out a relationship with Laura, she was anyway by my side.
After being with her for 3 - 4 months I realized she is too soft for me, but, because she was so in love with me and I knew her for such a long time I couldn't tell her anything. Even though I've noticed what a great girl she is, I couldn't stop thinking that she is too soft for me, but, after one year, I had to tell her what I feelt and we broke up.
For 2 moths I felt relieved, but then she left in the States where she spent her holidays and I only thought of how great she was and how I didn't give her a chance to get to my heart. For 3 months while she was there, I only thought of her and only her. I kept remembering over and over her warm face and her full of love look.
When she came back I wanted to get back with her and for a full year everything was so great it was the most beautiful year of my life.
When the summer came, she went back to the States where she, again, spent her holiday. That summer was so painful and I wanted her back so badly. The first few weeks were the most painful without her but then I got accustomed. After she came back we had a trip to Paris and more recently to Budabest. Everything was like a dream.
We are both still living with our parents. We are both programmers but we're not working in the same place. Every day after we finished work, she was coming over my place where we stayed in my room talking, watching movies or doing something else or going outside.
Since the last 5 months I changed my work place. I'm now working from home and in the last 3 weeks something changed. My thoughts are just like those I had in the first year with her. I feel she might not be the one for me. I realize we don't have different preoccupations and we are always together and I know that since we are all the time together we got bored. But I always have the constant fear that she might not be the one for me.
The thing is though, this time, I don't want to break up with her, I just want things to be the same as they were after we got back together 2 years ago. I made plans, I would like to marry her because I know she is special and I might never find somebody like her and I don't want her to suffer because of me, but I always have the fear that she might not be the one for me.
I'm desperate and I don't know what I should do. She noticed there is something wrong with me and after I told her what's bothering me, she is desperate too. Neither of us wants to break up, but how can I step out of this? We are in a break now.

What to do... What to say???
By: MommyOfWho? | 25-07-2008
How do you get your other half to see or understand that you don't feel they treat you the same way you treat them...
Example: They are sick or hurt, and you do everything you can to make sure they are comfortable. But when you are hurt, they yell at you and won't help you.
How do you explain this?
My knee went out on me and it is difficult to do anything on crutches. Last night when he came home from work I asked for some food... and he tells me he has things he has to do and I have to wait. He then takes off from the house and comes back an hour and a half later and still wouldn't help me. Now... there are times that he is down and out... and has really hurt me...but knowing he is down and out I was more than willing to take care of him. He asks for specific things and I'll run out to the store for whatever, MAKING A POINT of making sure he has something to drink, the remote...whatever... to make sure he doesn't need anything while I'm gone.
