4mymak @4mymak (1793) • Malaysia 7 Nov 07

This is an on-going 'argument' that i have with my dear husband. It all started after we have children... When my kidz were small (during when they still could not walk) and you have to carry them...they always insist that...

Married2aMarine It's a guy's thing. Not macho, I guess. Mine is a Marine. He would try and avoid carrying my handbag if he can. But he has surprised me on some occasions...and OFFERED to carry it for me..but he holds it like it's a dirty diaper! LOL!!! You gotta know he...

Married2aMarine Find a good babysitter so you can have an occasional night out together. Or maybe have date nights at home. Get a good movie, some wine, etc. Cuddle up to a nice, romantic evening on the couch. I know it's hard sometimes but as a mom and a wife myself, I have...

Married2aMarine I don't have much of a cleavage. But I have a nice back. So, I'll have to say backless. Plus, I get to show off my tattoo that's on my shoulder blade :)

Married2aMarine I'm like you. I prefer shopping alone. I like browsing. Comparing items, prices, etc. So, it takes time and I like doing it alone without interruption.

Married2aMarine I'm an Asian girl married to a Black Hispanic. Yes, we do have different cultures and come from different parts of the world. But it wasn't a big issue for us. We just learn to adapt and appreciate one another's differences. We also have a lot in common. It...

wisconsin26 @wisconsin26 (3859) • United States 19 Sep 07

Married2aMarine Arrghh!! Mine does that too. And I know she's only doing it to get my attention. She doesn't bark or yelp or anything...but pant REALLY loud...and REALLY close to me to get my attention. Once I give her the attention, she stops doing it. It's SO annoying....

njrealestategirl @njrealestategirl (369) • United States 17 Sep 07

socks because my sister in law steals his socks for her son. I'm not sure if this is done intentionally or not but they wear the same size and I thought it was just an honest mistake because she lives with my mother in law and my...

Married2aMarine I think it's rude and irresponsible of her to be keeping those socks. That's just teaching her kids that it's ok to take someone else's things. It doesn't matter if it's just a bunch of socks...it's the principle of it...plus, every cent counts...and I'm sure...

Married2aMarine We need something like that for our mailbox. Ours has been a victim of hit and run TWICE in the last 4 months. I'm surprised I can still use it. Only problem with my mailbox now is that it's a little wobbly and the lid doesn't close all the way. But i'm...

Do you think being single at the age of 30 is still good?

selene_31 @selene_31 (90) • Philippines 27 Jul 07

Married2aMarine It's better to be single and happy than to be married and miserable. I married "late" too at the "ripe old age" of 33. And I have NO regrets. I got to do all the things I wanted to do as a single woman. And I waited till I found the right guy. I did not...

How far apart is a good time frame to have your children?

sjchristian @sjchristian (76) • United States 9 Aug 07

Married2aMarine I'm now pregnant for the 2nd time. By the time this baby is born, there will be a 3 year gap between them. I think that's a good age gap. My older one is more independent now, can entertain himself and do some stuff for himself and doing great with potty...

Married2aMarine I've had this happen to me a few times before. The best thing to do is to ignore him. If you give him any kind of attention..whether positive or negative, it will only urge him to do more because he sees a response and like you say, he likes a challenge. So,...
