I just read about a case in Paris where a man in his 30's sought and got an annulment from his wife (in her 20's) because she lied to him about being a virgin. The lower court cited that a person could seek an annullment if one...

rdcortezjr Virginity is not the issue here. I think the main issue is the lying. The woman made the man think that she was a virgin. And in any court, I think the deception made by the woman made their marriage worthy of a divorce. If she hadn't led him to believe that...

rdcortezjr Let me just say that your cousin's house is really beautiful, as I assume your home must also be. We used to live in a condo unit owned by my parents in the city, but it was just too small, so we moved. My wife and I are currently renting this...

rdcortezjr I think adoption is a great idea. Just imagine giving this lonely person all the love and care he or she has been missing all her life. And what makes this idea even greater is that your partner supports you. Yay! I say kudos to you sir for having the heart,...

Communication is very important in a relationship but of course we have to be careful of what we say to avoid conflicts in it. So tell me is there anything that you and your partner avoid discussing about?

rdcortezjr Exactly! Keeping things to myself really stresses me out so I tell her that this is the way I feel at the moment and that it may change when I get to share it with her.

rdcortezjr I think overall I, the husband, run things. We (my wife and I) talk about things that need real decisions, and I decide which is best for us. That doesn't mean that I always have my way. It's just that when we discuss things, I listen to her thoughts and...

rdcortezjr Galena is right. There are things I'm good at, and there are things that I really suck at. Men who feel threatened by "better" women don't have the balls to be called men. It all boils down to respect. Respect what each of us can and can't do, and accept...

What is the best age to get married? I got married when I was 27. That was 4 years after I graduated and been working, gave me enough time o save some money and get financially stable. During that time, I met my husband at my...

get married

suitable age

rdcortezjr The right time is when you both feel it's right. It's really hard to pinpoint an exact number here because different people have different levels of maturity. You should not get married just because it's in you 10-year plan to be married at this certain age....

rdcortezjr We talk about everything. I tell her all my thoughts, and she does the same. In case of sensitive topics, I first let her know that what I'm about to say is what I really feel, and that she doesn't really have to get upset about it and just hear me out. She...

rdcortezjr This is a good advice. If I give in and let her have her way, then the time, I will have my way.

rdcortezjr Haha! You're funny! I also like reading. You know, I used to read a lot, at least one hour per day. Now, I'm finding myself too busy to read. Hope it rains really hard so I have a good reason to stay at home!

rdcortezjr Yes. That's where I got this. They only interviewed well-known personalities. This way, ordinary people like us can share. I also like drinking hot choco, and maybe pairing that with some toast, jam, and butter!
