    He shouts and gets angry for the slightest thing. He is very intolerant. He wants me to send him loving messages all the time, I do but not too many as we have only been dating 6 weeks. I want to take it slowly as I have been hurt before. I bought him presents (perfume, an easter egg, shirts). Sometimes he cancels dates but wants me to be available all the time when it suits him. Once did not show up at all and never called me. He went off for the weekend with his friends witout telling me and had his phone switched off. I was waiting at home for his call. He never apologised but ended up shouting at me that I worried his brother as I phoned his brother asking where he was and his brother didn't know. Yet, he wants me to be available for him when it suits him and gets angry when I am not. He gets angry easily for little things and has a temper. So I am not really sure he is a great guy .... He has no education and works in a factory and ever second week works on the night shift. I am studying for my Masters. His last girlfriends were vulgar and uneducated, one worked as a stripper. He used to work as a stripper. He is jealous and controlling and told him that I don't need to see my friends much any more. The first night we slept together he took me to a hotel. I dont know why he didnt take me back to his place. Ive been there since. I told him that I had been hurt in the past and that I wanted to take it slowly. He shouted and got angry and said "Everyone has been hurt in the past. Just get over it" He is not understanding but expects me to be understanding and caring towards him. Another time he got really angry because I asked to change bars and go to the bar next door as there were no seats at the bar we were at. Once when we slept together I went to the bathroom to get condoms. Three days later he brought it up in an angry voice that I destroyed the romantic moment by going to the bathroom to get condoms. Another time we arranged a blind date between my friend and his best friend and he got all angry and said "why would he phone her again as she won't sleep wth him, she is just looking for friendship" and was even shouting. SHOULD I CONTINUE TO DATE HIM? WOULD MANY WOMEN TOLERATE THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOUR? He also told me that I talk too much about my friends and their lives and that I should only talk about me and him and our future together. Also, some of his friends occassionally go with prostitutes even though they are married.

    I already asked this question in mental health section, but i didn't get the respond I need so i posted here in this section 'cause I so in need for a good answer... Few days ago my sweet boyfriend (he's the first man in my life) that I love and trust blindly hurt me when we were talking about his book that going to be published soon and he admitted that used his writing talent from the start to make me love him only because I’ve never been touched by any man before and never been in love so he wanted to be the first and he said it exactly like this: " I wanted to make love to you because I knew if I would be the first man inside you that there would never be another man to ever get your love" I haven't showed him and sign of pain or anger or anything, I pretended everything is good and I’m ok with what he said but I spent two days crying and feeling so much pain and lonely thinking about the big fake fairy tale I was living. And then things wont worst yesterday when some guy I used to like very much called me after long time never heard from him, I thought everything going to be great with his call and he can make me feel better after my big disappointed with my bf. But the shock was that he didn’t even recognize me and said he only called because he found my number in his cell phone so he called to know whose number is this. I felt it right in my stomach like a stab that deep pain but I swallowed my tears and said like it doesn't matter who am I then hanged up the phone. I felt like crying but couldn’t drop a tear maybe one hour later I dropped some tears then nothing just went to the kitchen and have a late dinner which I don’t usually then went to bed… And when I woke up this morning I started to have this weird feelings or better say I have no feelings at all... I felt like nothing happened at all in the past few days I am not happy or even sad nothing at all. My mother yelled at me and insulted me because of something I told and didn't feel bad for it and didn't even got bothered with her words. And I watched this poor sick child with cancer on the TV and it was normal to me I didn’t felt pain for him. I tried to do my exercise but I couldn’t and thought like: what for? I tried to listen to some music but couldn’t feel the rhythm, I tried to pray but I couldn’t reach to the spiritual level in the prays and also tried to write about my failure relationship and some poetries but felt like there’s nothing to write about. I truly don’t know what’s wrong with me! Even when I am writing these words I don't feel like real worry I don’t' know how to describe it exactly but I only wonder why am I like this and how did I reach this level. So please would any body tell me what’s really going with me? Anything would help really. Most appreciated

  • I'm worried that I'll never get married, advice?

    Now I'm sure this sounds silly since I've just turned 18 a few months ago, but I'm really worried that I'll never find the right guy and get married. I've only had 2 boyfriends, neither very serious and 1 guy where we were kinda dating but it was never official. I'm still a virgin, not really in a rush about losing it though and it's not that I'm ugly, I'm just average but a little chunky (definitely not fat though). My mom keeps telling me I'll meet someone at college when I start in the spring but I don't think I will, I'm just so shy. My biggest fear right now is that I won't get married and I'll be alone forever. I was just at a wedding on saturday which really got me thinking about all of this, and now it's all I think about. Do you think I'll ever find someone?

    Today i missed my flight and had to spend $150 for a ticket tmrw. It was absolutely my bf's fault I missed it. He knows it. Earlier today I splurged on sexy lingerie and outfits to wear for him. I have to return it bc now I can't afford it(since I had to spend $150+ on the ticket). Should I take a pic of it on--not showing my face--and send it to him saying "u caused urself to miss out on this..." I'm really upset I'm out like $170 bucks(now can't pay my electric bill) bc my bf wanted to have sex before taking me to the airport. Once I saw the time I was anxious and not enjoying it but he had to be selfish & come....ugh I'm sooooooooo mad at him n feel like he should pay me the $150 how can I get back at him?
  • Fiancee is turning into a major pain?!?

    Okay so I'm in my third year of med school while my fiancee has started her residency already. When we got together I made it clear to her that I wont be able to give her a lot of attention while I'm attending med school since this is extremely important to me and my family. She keeps complaining about me never taking her out and studying all the time, when she was the same way while attending med school! She really should be focusing on her residency a lot more than she is too. Not to mention I have to work part time and study a lot, since my field tends to be a little competitive. I think she may also be a little jealous I scored way above her on the USMLE step 1's, since she hasn't been the same ever since she saw my score. What should I do?

Valentine's Day Survival Guide

By Ann Douglas

Valentine’s Day can be tough for the less popular kids (and, yes, those kids know exactly who they are). Should I find out how things are handled at my child’s elementary school on Valentine’s Day?

Absolutely. There’s nothing worse than feeling like the social outcast of your entire elementary school because you didn’t score a single Valentine. Fortunately, while your child is still in the primary or junior grades, her teacher will likely establish some Valentine’s Day ground rules that may help to short-circuit such misery (e.g., requiring anyone who wants to hand out Valentines to bring a Valentine for everyone in the class).

Valentine’s Day tends to become slightly more torturous during junior high and high school, the years when kids are given the opportunity to purchase roses or chocolates to send to a “secret Valentine.” (Some secret! The popular kids get loaded down with goodies while the less popular kids are left empty handed.)

You may want to speak out against these “popular-kid-take-all” events, if they’re still happening at your local school by the time your child hits junior high or high school—or at least suggest that they be handled in a more sensitive way. The less popular kids will thank you for it.
