jellygator My husband and I have been like that since we first met. It's sort of weird, but fun. We have a standing joke when it happens - "Get outta my head!" followed by "But you want me there" and "Yes, I do."

jellygator While I agree that patience, trust, good communication, and respect are all necessary for a good relationship, I don't think that a bad relationship will work even if all of those things are there. I wrote an article about how compatibility in five areas...

jellygator I believe that when the bad outweighs the good most of the time, it's time to move on, but that it's important to not get too hasty about thinking the bad outweighs the good. If it was truly a case of my partner didn't love me, I think that would be terms for...

HeresTheScoop @HeresTheScoop (748) • United States 20 Feb 12

Rewind to the 1970's - My paternal grandparents were the greatest! Grandpa smoked a pipe. He told me that he could make the smoke come out of his eyes but I had to look closely because it came out slowly. So I would get up...

jellygator I have young grandchildren and I hope to be EXACTLY that kind of grandma to 'em! It's nice to see that they made such a cozy place in your heart.

jellygator Enjoy it! We have so few opportunities to really relax when we have to work full-time and take care of our families and ourselves. That's one of the reasons I leaped into being a homemaker when my husband generously offered to let me stop working, and I've...

friends after love???

salma07 @salma07 (639) • India 14 Feb 12

hi i find the idea of being friends after breaking up with your ex is weird, what you think?

jellygator Well, I had to stay friendly with my first husband because we had children together, but I've always preferred to be friends after breaking up whenever possible. I think if two people liked each other enough to call it "love" then they should be able to be...

jellygator My ex-husband and I spent over 8 years in a nasty custody case with his ex-wife, and my father died in prison. So yes, I've dealt with both criminal and civil court cases and I agree... they suck.
