If a legal alien couple get divorced can the husband stop the wife from leaving the USA with the children?

Yes, If they got their divorce in the U.S., their divorce decree should state certain rules each must follow concerning the children. For example; whom ever has physical custody cannot move within a 35 mile radios from the father Or mother, another example; Cannot leave the state without the other parents consent. A letter should be sent to the parent certified containing all information ie; where they are going, phone numbers address etc.. If the father does not have joint custody or vistatation or these specifics are not in the divorce or vistation papers, then he should run not walk RUN to court and adjust his divorce decree accordily. I know this info. because my Ex-boyfriend divorced his wife(whom only just received her working papers)and I am sure his wife would have ran to Mexico if I did not go through his papers with a fine tooth comb. He can read minimal English and even with a high paid Lawyer there still were mistakes. Her lawyer would slip items in the papers (at her reques) but we picked them out. If he has questions seek a lawyer. Good luck and God Bless!

How would a man react if his wife asked him to spank her?

If it were in a playful manner, I would think he would do it. It might, however, be a good idea to discuss such matters as place, time and velocity of said actions.

If your husband cntinues to see his mistress does he love her?

There's no easy answer for that one. He clearly has some kind of feelings for her. But love? Yeah that's a tough one. Sorry.

Agree - he clearly gets something from her - could be sex - could be different sort of sex than he gets at home, could be love, could be companionship, could be a feeling of safety or a feeling of lack of responsibility for his family.

ANSWER:

If your husband continues his affair after getting caught by the wife, yes that is the sign that the husband already love the other woman. If this man is only wanting sex from the other woman and not from his wife, he could try to find another new woman that can thrill and excite him. Believe me I know because it happens to me.

What is going on if you've been married for almost 4 years and it's difficult to get your husband to communicate and the romance seems to have dwindled?

Aha! The magic #4. This is usually the time when the magic of the relationship takes a 90 degree turn and leaves both partners flat on their faces. First the couple meet and it feels like they are walking on clouds and fireworks are going off. Then they start dating and things seem fairly OK there too. They get married and some raise children and while they are all busy working, raising children and paying bills they don't notice the changes going on in their marriage. Your problem is quite common and most of us have to deal with this. It takes work to get into some healthy habits with your husband and yourself, but men sometimes just don't know what to do or how to fix problems in a marriage so it's up to the woman to instigate it. I've been married 34 years to a wonderful man, but like any other couple there was a lack of communication when we first were married. It's as if they landed us by marrying us and don't have to work hard to keep us and they can act as if they are still single and do what they please (even if it's going out with the boys to fishing or golfing). I'm sure they don't mean this, but that's what it can feel like. Women can feel neglected when their husbands don't pay them compliments, never buy them the odd bouquet of flowers or simply say, "Hey hon, let's get out of here and go for dinner and a movie." It's also nice to hear from your husband that you're pretty, cute or "I love ya girl!" It's just the way men can think at times and it doesn't always mean they don't love us. Try again to talk to your husband and when he gets home from work make coffee, let him have a beer or whatever and sit down together. Take at least 1/2 hour to sit and communicate. Have the TV off! Start out by asking how his day is and if he has problems try to put your heads together to work them out. Then tell him about your day, but be sure and don't whine about silly things. Throw a curve every so often and just be silly, sit on his knee, or, start planning a holiday together so there is something to look forward too. It doesn't even have to be an expensive holiday if money is a concern. I started to teach my husband how to communicate by doing the above. He now enjoys coming home (has his shower) then we sit and have tea or coffee together (sometimes he'll have a beer or wine.) I ask about his day and we go over any problems he may be having at work, then he asks about my day. After that he's pretty much free to do as he wants or what I want. Often we will simply go for a walk by the river with the dogs and that sure helps to clean out the old cobwebs. It's always healthy to retain a social life as well. If you don't have much cash to spare, choose friends you both like to come over in the evening and have "potluck." This way no one is stuck with a big food bill. It can be as simple as chips and dips, veggie platter, dessert, etc., or as fancy as you would like it or a simple old BBQ. It's important as a couple to get out at least once or twice a month and have some fun. If you can't afford a babysitter ask either of your parents or a trusted relative or, you can switch-off with a girlfriend and no money is involved. It's also important to try and like a few things he may be interested in (and he should have the same respect for you.) My husband is an avid fisherman and always was, but when I was younger I use to detest it. It only took a year and I was hooked like a fish! LOL Now it's myself that is coaxing him to go to Campbell River fishing for Coho and he's getting quite excited. We both love the ocean and fun in the sun. We just don't plan to fish, but fish during the morning, come back for a snooze, go for dinner, then fish in the early evening, get back and shower and hit a club in the evening. So, each of us has the best of both worlds. By doing this we also meet some great people. It is also very important that the wife can retain her own independence and I don't just mean she has to go to work. It's good to join a club, volunteer, or, make a date with a girlfriend and go out and have some fun. If you are too close to your husband it really does become a bore and by going out on your own husbands generally find they really do miss their wife. Women need to feel needed and appreciated so, sometimes if we can't get it at home you can get a part-time job, volunteer for a group you are interested in or just go out the odd time with girlfriends. Hey, you could even go on a mini holiday with a girlfriend and have a good rest! LOL I've done that. I wish you good luck Marcy

What should I do if my boyfriend proposed to me when he was still married to someone else even though they have been separated for 13 years?

Answer

If your bf has been separated for 13 years, what are you worrying about? I'd say that before you say yes, tell him to get a divorce and then you will be ok with marrying him or accepting his proposal, but only when he is divorced.

Is it worth changing religions for love?

If you aren't particularly attached to the religion you have or the other makes more sense, then yes. Otherwise, it is a very personal decision taht cannot be made for you.

Will a man stay with a married women he cheated with and got pregnant?

Well, i want to answer this question as a man that i am;

if he is aware that the woman is married and went on with the affair until she got pregnant that would be a bit of an argument, cause she might have been sexually active with her husband also. Maybe he will stay around to check if the kid is really his, or he might not.

You can't ever really tell what decision someone will take, unfortunately.

How do you write letter to leave your work for 3 months?

Writing a letter to leave your work for 3 months is simple. You need to address your issue and why you will be absent.

How soon should a person remarry after the death of a spouse?

I would give it at least two years. If you say the first marriage lasted two years, and then ended badly, then you need at least that long to determine whether or not a new relationship will even last two years without the stresses of marriage.

I have been happily married for just under a year, but we dated seriously for five years before we decided to get married. I think that was a very good time to get to really know each other, and even still I am learning things about my husband that I never knew.

Make sure you choose the right one before you marry again, it should be for life. Take the time to get to really know the person, then take the big step of marriage.

Good Luck

I wouldn't do it any sooner than a year. A lot of the time you feel an overwhelming feeling of love for someone, then suddenly, out of the blue, it's gone. You want to be sure to date or even live with someone (it is 2003!) and see how compatible you really are. Good luck!

depends on situation, did your first spouse die?, did you get a divorce because of mental reasons like was there abuse, gambling, drugs, infidelity, etc? if so, get some counseling for coping better and better prepare yourself for mentally being ready to trust someone. if a spouse died, then you have a grieving period and that depends on the person. some people get stuck in the pain and end up with the wrong person because they didn't know how to be alone. have you ever been alone and happy? i loved dating and without rush, i met my husband. doing just fine.

Wait at least three years or more before you decide to remarry. You need to date someone a year at least to really get to know them overall and to see if either of you have any major issues (drug problems, abuse, irresponsibility with finances, family arguments).

Take your time and enjoy the relationship. There's really no hurry.

: There is no set time limit for when to remarry, except to say that each state has a set time limit you have to wait after divorce to remarry. Check with your state to see their law on the subject. In my case, time limit was 30 days (Texas law) I met my fiance when he was still in a (bad) 8 year marriage. Both were emotionally checked out of the marriage, but neither had made the move to divorce until after he and I met. The divorce was a long time coming, and had nothing to do with his relationship to me. He was divorced in August, proposed to me in October, and we are going to wed in May. We met in February. Seems fast? There is no doubt in either of our minds that this is the right thing. No doubt that it is too fast. Legally their marriage has ended. No one can tell you how soon is too soon. If they are/you are emotionally ready and thinking rationally (as in, not heartbroken or resentful toward the ex) then proceed as you wish!

When two narcissists marry do their lies come between them and do they ever figure out the other is lying to them?

I'm not sure that narcissist overly lie so to speak as they are usually straight forward and its me, me, me - but within a marriage I'm not sure that they would notice anyway or care even as they are too into themselves to notice the other.

Why does the man panic when seeing his wife outside the store?

perhaps she spent more money than he thought was appropriate.

How do you lead a good married life after your spouse had an affair?

It is a very hard thing to do. Your spouse bottom line was unfaithful. Marriage is a covenant; a promise between two people to be faithful and love each other. If your spouse cheats then they have broken their side of the covenant, meaning you shouldn't have to keep holding onto to your end either.

It hurts to know that someone you love felt intimate about someone else; showing an expression of love and affection such as that to someone else.

I'm not sure if this is the case, but sometimes incidents happen when there is alcohol or some drug abuse involved; but it means they were not being considerate or responsible. Think about the fact that many people can still resist things that are wrong when they were drunk or high. But it does explain less of a sense of good judgement.

Something that no person wants to be is second best to someone they love, especially if they are in a commitment with that person; which in the normal case of having an affair, that is what the spouse becomes. And that is what the spouse made you was second best; you wouldn't want to always be that even if the spouse does remain faithful to you after the affair.

The cheating spouse was NOT the victim; the faithful spouse is. It is your decision whether or not to take pity on this. I'd say take these things into consideration when you think about whether or not you can actually make a healthy marriage out of that situation. And if you can I highly suggest marriage counseling. It is a good thing to have someone there helping and listening to your problems then laying them out for you so you can see it clearly and really get a feel for the situation.

Anyway, Good Luck :)

My husband and i are having problems and we now have a 1yr old baby i don't want to disappoint my family by getting a divorce and i don't want her to grow up with a broken family - what should i do?

What do I do when my husband has been in prison for over a year and his brother was supportive of me and we've been having an affair for 6 months and believe I'm in love with him?

You didn't say if your husband is still in prison; is just getting out of prison or he is out of prison. No matter what the case there is no excuse for cheating.

With your husband in prison for over a year I am sure you meant to be loyal to him and things happen, but this is still no reason to cheat. If you felt you were in love with his brother you should have had the guts to visit him in prison and tell him. It would be wise for you and his brother to take some time apart so you are sure it's not 'lust in the dust' instead of true love. You have a lot of hard thinking to do. You have to decide if the reason your husband went to prison is enough to have you wait and live with him or divorce him. What is his brother like. Sometimes in families 'rotten apples don't fall far from the trees' meaning his brother could be like your husband, or, he may be a nice guy.

Because you used the word 'I believe I'm in love with him' you gave a good hint that you are not quite sure if you love him. You are certainly confused and before you light that TNT it would be wise to take that break from your husband's brother and start thinking of what your future would be like. Learn to be more independent and don't always feel you have to have a man in your life to get ahead in this world.

Jerry Springer is looking for couples like you

Answer2: These things never end well. A broken trust between brothers and marriage mates, sad indeed. Your husband even thoug in prison deserves more than this.

Is 14 too young to try and create a lasting relationship leading to marriage?

Actually, It is possible, you can be in love at 14. I'm 14, I've been with my boyfriend for almost 4 years, we know what love is, but you need to watch very closley.any questions.add me.x__emokidx__@hotmail.comaim= carlieisthesex

Absolutly not! you are never to young to experience with love. there are many happy couples out there who met in high school and are still happy today. you can never be to sure what can happen. if you and your partner are both commited to your relationship, it is possible. but there are many sacrifices to make. you will really need to understand each other and try your best to make the relationship work, even if it means sacrifice. things will not always go your way in a relationship, so its up to you to work things out and never hold a grudge. even if things don't romantically work out, stay friends. because you never know what could happen down the road. always forgive each other, because forgivness is key. and while love is not guranteed, there is always hope. believe you can make it last, and who knows, maybe it will. how do i know all this? because i to, am 14 and i believe anything is possible. good luck!

Years ago (and some religious beliefs and cultures today) 14 was acceptable to get married, but not true now. Life is fast-paced, demands more from a person, and can be a rough ride. Education is everything now, and life is a learning process.

I believe that 14 is far too young to create a lasting relationship and then consider marriage. A 14 year old is still growing and learning and you can only do these things by tasting what is out in the world (we learn our mistakes, success' and enjoy so many great events out in the world.) Dating someone at 14 is just fine, but usually we have had our "first love" and as painful as it may be we then move on and there are many more people we meet. Eventually, when the time is right we know right off the bat that this is the right person to settle down with. Marriage really should be forever, so you'd better get it right. Marriage takes a lot of work and at 14, having children, it would be extremely hard to support them at such a young age.

Please wait and don't rush your relationship. If you love each other and it is true love, then you should be there for each other in the next 5 - 7 years. Be sure you have had a taste of the world before you settle down.

Good LuckMerry ChristmasMarcy

Tough question. Basically, don't tie yourself to one person and pin all your hopes on him. Keep yourself open to the possibility of many relationships and meeting many people. Don't be tied down. Experience many people before making your decision. In addition, you might be setting yourself up for a major heartbreak. Don't plan for marriage now. Enjoy the present. Enjoy who you're with. Then see what develops.

Yes, 14 is much too young. At 14 you're changing way too much way too quickly. You have no idea how you're going to be at age 20 or so. Don't make long term committments until you're older.

way to youngYes it's much too young at 14 you are still a kid, enjoy being one.

Should you just move on if after being in a relationship with a man for 3.5 years he still is not ready for marriage and it's the 3rd time after you've mentioned the subject that he has said NO?

Yes. After 3 years, if he wants you to understand his not being ready for marriage, he needs to discuss the reasons he feels this way. Chances are that he doesn't want to discuss marriage, because he isn't ready for it and he isn't sure that you are the person he wants to spend the rest of his life committed or married to. (I would understand his feelings more if you are both younger--early to mid twenties, or are still working on your education or careers and haven't had time to live your own life.) If you are disastisfied with your relationship, you can initiate the next step: put up or shut up. Tell your boyfriend that you are looking for a committed relationship that will result in marriage. If he can't provide that, then it's best for both of you to break up. You need to prepare for a break up. You still care about your boyfriend, but some relationships just reach the highest point that they ever will and then settle into an inertia before they end. They coast on and on, exactly like they are with no progress forward or backward. Unfortunately this one hit that point before marriage and commitment came into the picture. If you want marriage, it's best to date around and look for a guy who will desire that type of relationship with you. Wouldn't you rather be with a guy who wants to be married to you and talks about the future instead of one that says no to you?
