...when Tim Horton's is a way of life, and not just another coffee shop.

I know my husband feels responsible for my happiness. We've had discussions on this a couple of times and I keep trying to tell him that it's not his fault if I'm not happy...he doesn't usually believe me, but rather tries to say that there must be something he can do to change the way I'm...

There's a book called Depression Fallout by Anne Sheffield...an interesting read specifically for partners of people who are depressed.

I too am like your wife, and my husband gets frustrated with me for the same things you do with her. I like the advice that Missing gave, about making it a team effort. Pointing fingers never works, trust me. You'll only make her feel guilty and worthless, not to mention defensive and angry...

(Disclaimer: if anyone here has been to counselling and has experienced something difference from what I'm about to describe, I am only re-iterating what I've been taught in my social work courses at university.) I would like to point out a major difference between RL counselling and MB...

As a point for the "you'll just know" theory, my story: My husband and I knew each other for about a year before we started dating. We hit it off quickly, and after many discussions about our values etc. in life we "knew" that we were right for each other. Personal choice played a large role...

my husband wakes up early, I like to sleep in...not a good combination

This actually has been a bit of an issue with my husband and I...not that either of us are struggling in this area, but we've had some discussions about it recently in order to clarify that we're both on the same page. In short, we've pretty much determined that it's really not a good idea for...

My husband and I haven't been married that long, and we've actually been kind of surprised by how regularly finish together. We'd always heard that it was kind of a rare occurance. It's not like we're aiming for this, it just seems to happen... (although, most of the time, I have to admit...

My husband doesn't understand the idea of clarifying when I say yes or no. What I mean by that is, if he asks a yes or no question, I rarely answer with a simple yes or no, but kind of explain why I might be answering either yes or no. It drives him nuts! I guess that's partly my fault...

I love showering with my husband! It's rare that I take a shower by myself now...and to solve the problem of him playing with my legs while I'm shaving, he gets out early and I finish shaving. Seems to work okay for us.

I posted this earlier on another thread dealing with a woman in an abusive situation: "I work at a shelter for abused women and see women in the same situation as you every day. My advice to you is: have a plan. If you decide not to leave your husband yet or at all, you still need to have a...

Everyone has given you excellent advice. I work at a shelter for abused women and see women in the same situation as you every day. My advice to you is: have a plan. If you decide not to leave your husband yet or at all, you still need to have a plan for keeping yourself safe. The next...

my husband has great eyes and wonderful arms for holding me with... *sigh* now I've got this funny grin on my face picturing him and that warm fuzzy feeling...

well, I don't know about the whole first year of marriage thing, as we've only been married for a month, but I can totally relate to the family doing crazy things bit. Our problems have mostly come from his side of the family, and without going into a whole lot of detail his mom was accusing us...

my husband and I were/are both 22 and we got married a month ago. I'm finished college, he never went but started working right after high school. Why now and now later? We knew we were ready. Do I regret that I'm already married at 22? Not at all. Maybe you think it's too soon for me...

definitely big snuggles on the weekend! :D

girl, I can totally relate...my husband is a truck driver and goes away from Mon to Wed, and then again Thurs overnight to Fri...sometimes even leaves right away Wed and isn't back till Fri morning...I miss him unbearably when he's gone.

thank you all for your replies...it helps to know I'm not alone in this. as for my emotions at the time after we've had sex...sometimes I'm feeling very close to my husband, sometimes I think I might be a little scared about all the new things I'm experiencing, sometimes I just feel lonely...

I have a question about a rather sensitive subject, forgive me if I sound dumb...I feel stupid for even having to ask. I've been married for three weeks now, and my husband and I have had sex a number of times now. I don't find it painful, and I've reached the climax a number of times, so the...
