Request for second wife sign for first one to leave
I have been married for seven months, and my husband wants a second wife, something I do not agree with. He says he likes helping people and has decided he wants a former lover to be a part of our marriage. Unfortunately, she is more than willing to sleep with him.
Now, he’s talking about helping her move, even though he knows I’m against him having anything to do with her. She says she’s going to tell her daughter he is her boyfriend and not let her know he is married. She wants to be my friend, but I want nothing to do with her.
I sold my house, so I have nowhere to go. He refuses to go to marriage counseling because he says I am the problem. I am just about ready to cut my losses and move on. What do you think?
You and your husband are already living on separate planets as far as your values are concerned. Unless you are willing to have an open marriage and another woman sharing your husband, I “think” it’s time to talk to a lawyer.
While flying across country with my toddler son, he started screaming hysterically as the plane began its descent. I tried giving him a bottle, a pacifier, even the corner of my shirt, but he continued to howl.
All of a sudden, a hand holding a lollipop appeared in the space between our seats and with it came a soft voice that said, “It’s the change in air pressure. Try this.” I took what turned out to be a sugar-free lollipop, and sure enough, the moment I unwrapped the generally frownedupon treat, my son began sucking enthusiastically and calmed down. Ever since, I travel with sugar-free lollipops in my purse in case a child near me is undone by the change in pressure. Some parents are skeptical, but when I use the tone and the words once spoken to me, they usually accept the treat, calm their child and sigh in relief.
Perhaps airlines should stock an emergency supply of lollipops on planes for parents in this situation.
My niece died recently from a fentanyl overdose. She was 43. My brother lives out of town, so I retrieved my niece’s belongings. While going through them, I found a crack pipe and syringes. Should I tell my brother or keep it to myself?
Please accept my sympathy for the loss your family has suffered. I think you should tell your brother. He is already aware that his daughter had a serious drug problem. Sharing the information could help him realize the scope of her addiction.
