What if spouse withholds affection and other spouse cheats then confesses?

I dont know if yourmale or female but people cheat for all kinds of reasons, but in the end you broke you sacred marriage vows. Those vows didnt say cheat if spouse withholds affection. You made a decision and followed through with it now everyone gets hurt. I speak from experience I was cheated on and my kids as well as myself wrere hurt. It is very selfish and insensitive not to mention life changing because you may forgive the person but you never forget. When you marry you become as one in Gods eyes for better or worse.

Is a man gay if he refuses to answer his mate about having effeminate mannerisms?

No, it doesn't mean he's gay. Maybe he's tired of answering questions about it. Sometimes people who "look gay" are not gay at all. You can't really tell by looking at someone if they're gay or not.

Laws in the Philippines for women abuse?

The existing laws in the Philippines for Domestic Violence against women is The Revised Penal Code (RPC) which defines crimes involving physical injuries, mutilation, threats, coercion, parricide, and murder that can be used by women victims of domestic violence in filing criminal cases. However, these laws have limited definitions that fail to take into account particular circumstances of DV cases and are inadequate in giving justice to the victims.

The current status of the Domestic Violence Bill: Women advocates have been lobbying for almost a decade, but the Philippine Congress has yet to enact one. The passage of this bill will address many domestic violence issues. However, the Bill has to go through many processes to be passed, unfortunately :(.

In the Philippines, two measures of addressing the issue of domestic violence are being deliberated in Congress. The Anti-Abuse of Women In Intimate Relationships (anti-AWIR) Bill and the Domestic Violence Bill. The lower house of Philippine Congress has passed the AWIR bill while the DV Bill has been reported out for floor deliberation by the house committee on Family and Population. The Senate Committee on Women is currently in the process of holding public consultations at both measures. In the meantime, women's NGO's have been finding legislative success on the local front. The passage of local ordinances on domestic violence has been successful in key cities nationwide, particularly in Cebu City.

Availibility of Services: Government efforts to address the issue of DV in terms of providing services have been commendable, primarily due to committed advocates within the government. Various government agencies, including the Department of Health, the Philippine National Police, and the Department of the Interior and Local Governments have programs addressing DV. These include women's desks and units in hospitals and precincts, education programs among service providers, including barangay officials, and emergency shelters. However, these efforts are localized, uncoordinated, and without a national standard.

I also came across some laws such as:

Act No. 9208 Anti-Trafficking Persons Act

Act No. 9262 Defining Violence against women and their children

Act No. 7877 On Sexual Harassment.

As said in the paragraphs, the Philippine Laws fail to address Domestic Violence, but hopefully bills do get passed to help women there. Obviously, I am a big supporter of Womens Rights!

I hope no domestic violence is happening to you. If so, try and contact friends, family, shelters, anything-- and get away.

Why do women disrespect their husbands?

ANSWER:

When you say "disrespect" what do you mean by it? Pardon me but I don't think ALL women who's married disrespect their husband. Don't you agree? If so you will be counting your own mother towards your father and that is not a win win. Always remember it takes two to tango, husband needs to know and learn to respect the wife, after all she married him. She is the one that do those house work and if there's a kid wife becomes a mother and will take care that to.

Now wives also needs to learn to respect the husband because in front of God, friends, and family she announce what she will become with this man. Maybe next time you need to justify what needs to ask, so people can and will give you the proper answers. Thank you and have a nice day.

What is marriage as life and sacrament?

Great question although a little vague.

Marriage is supposed to represent Christ's union with the church. It is not a sacrament because there are only 2 sacraments: Communion and Baptism.

I'll start things off by re-stating what Paul tells us about marriage. The man is to love the woman as Christ loves the church. The man is to be the highest authority in the home and the woman is to submit to his authority as the church does to Jesus. That is why women need to marry well to be guided by a wise and loving husband. However, if she has not, she is still obligated to obey the husband because she is not obeying him but God.

My favorite biblical example of a woman marrried to a fool was Abigail.

My favorite extra-biblical example of a woman married to a hard and non-believing man was Monica, St. Augustine's mom. Read Augustine's confessions about Monica's importance in his life and her shining example of being a wife and mother.

What can you do if you and your family recently moved to a new home and you feel a strange presence and hear strange noises and feel horrified but your husband doesn't want to listen to you?

== == == == * Find something else to occupy your mind. If you start to become obsessive about this or anything else, of course you will "hear" or "see" things. * If you are constantly into the paranormal you could be just sensitive and there is really nothing wrong. You may feel strange living in a new home or unhappy you had to move. Strange houses have different sounds to them. They can creek, groan as they settle. Pipes to the house can make noises. If you haven't toyed with the paranormal (believing in apparitions .. good or bad) and you experience this then listen to your gut feeling. Go and do a search on the house you just moved into. Especially old houses can give off an eerie feeling if the house hasn't had happy occupants in it. You've heard the term "the walls have ears." It almost seems the house takes on the personality of the people that had once lived in it. If it's a new house or just a few years old do a search on the property. Sometimes the property can give up some very interesting secrets. There have been many documented cases where the property has been an Indian burial ground (a holy place) or once a graveyard. Land Developers could care less and use any tract of land they can get their hands on (money speaks volumes!) I have no doubt some posters will poo-poo your feelings, but I for one can believe you. I am not stoking you into paranoia, but telling you to search out the history of the house and property to put your mind at rest. There are things in this world we just don't understand. EXAMPLE OF A FRIENDLY ENTITY IN YOUR HOME: We had a neighbor next door to us who's parents owned a house that was approximately 17 years old. Every night as they sat and watched TV the huge portrait over the mantle of the fireplace would rock and move. My friend's parents thought it was just vibrations or the house settling and didn't think much of it. After months of this and it happening in front of guests (some guests refused to come back to visit) they did a search on the house and property. Thankfully, the only thing they came up with was the former owner. Apparently he loved the house and took tender loving care of it. They nicknamed this entity "George". I witnessed it with my own eyes. My neighbor took me over one night and we sat down. Nothing happened and we began to talk and then we saw the portrait move a lot! Calmly my neighbor's mother said, "No George, I told you not to do that when we have guests because they won't come back here anymore." Immediately the portrait stopped moving. I walked over and looked around the picture to be sure it wasn't a prank. I saw nothing! I can't explain it nor can anyone else, but all we know is "George" was friendly and very considerate! EXAMPLE OF HORROR AND NO ENTITIES ... WHY? I live within 15 miles of the largest murder case in the History of Canada, "The Pickton Murders" or "The Pig Farm Murders." Two brothers owned a great deal of country property and sold 1/2 of it to a land developer and there are new homes on that portion. The brothers lived on the other half of the property (at least 5 acres of land) and raised pigs. They also had a huge barn turned into a club called, "Miss Piggys" where they had live bands and roasted 2 - 3 pigs for their patrons. According to many the brothers were grand hosts and very kind (when I saw their pictures in the paper they looked liked something out of "Deliverance" to me, but then one can't judge fairly when you haven't met the person.) My husband and I paid little attention to this place, but I did know people that had gone to have a good time there and dance up a storm and eat roast pig. Approx. 3 years ago it was discovered that prostitutes from the Vancouver area were missing. Other prostitutes were complaining to the police for 8 years previously, but, because of the profession these women were in the police ignored them and appeared to have better things to do. Eventually word leaked out and society put the pressure on and that no matter if one is a prostitute or not, an investigation should be forth-coming because prostitutes were humans beings too. The long and short of it is, that most of us heard that a certain notorious motorcycle gang was always present at these functions at "Miss Piggies" and that they actually took most of the profits. Society is not stupid and most of us realized there must be something more going down than a barn full of people, but thought it could be drug related. We were partially wrong and when the story opened on the news all of us were in for the shock of our lives! The Pickton Farm is now noted for the deaths of well over 50 prostitutes and the police feel there are a great deal more there. It is said that one of the Pickton brothers recruited prostitutes from Vancouver by enticing them with free drugs and a good time. Off these poor women went and ended up in what they call "Snuff Movies" (this is still speculation until it is confirmed in a court of law ... the case is still going on in the justice system.) "Snuff Movies" are when someone is acting out in a sexual manner and then the person (victim) is actually murdered and this is taped and sold on the black market. The story goes that these women were enticed to the pig farm, murdered and thrown into the wood chipper and as much as I hate to say it, fed to the pigs. All the land the Pickton's lived on was dug up and they did find remains of many of the prostitutes. The above I brought up because it is certainly gruesome and no one should ever have to die in such a violent and disgusting manner, but, not one person living near or on the property where prostitutes could be buried where the new houses are have come back to haunt or cause trouble. Why? No one knows. People who study entities or claim to have seen them feel the person died in a traumatic way, or is held back because they love the house, property or are worried about the loved one(s) they left behind and they haven't gone towards the light. Some people believe this is a lot of hooey. I personally believe in some of it. We have yet to tap into many things on this earth that can happen, so unless we can prove for certain these things can't happen, then we can't say it doesn't. My girlfriend and her husband decided to travel into the states and see some historical sights. Neither of them believe in ghosts (entities.) They saw many old buildings, properties where the civil war had been and had no experiences. They had a camper on their truck and they decided to go out on their own and walk where Custer's Last Stand had happened. Her husband told her that he didn't feel "quite right" and wanted to get out of there. To me this is odd for a man and usually men don't pick up on such things. She too had a similar feeling of doom and fear. They took off fast and about 100 miles away they camped for the evening and thought nothing more of it. My girlfriend thought she was dreaming and was sitting up looking straight into the angry face of an Indian Chief. He appeared to just look angry and did nothing else. She stood straight up in bed and screamed at her husband who woke up (now you would think the apparition would disappear when this happened) but the Chief was not planning on moving! Her husband saw this as well. All he could think to say (as stupid as it sounds) was, "Go away! We had nothing to do with it! It was Custer!" It did the trick and the apparition vanished. They were so scared they hopped into the truck and drove until they dropped. Fiction? I think not! People who visit certain Civil War Sites to this day swear they see a soldier or two. Do your homework and if need be get a Minister, Priest, to bless the house if it would make you feel better (when your husband or children are not home). You are not going to get your husband to believe in this! Most men don't. Women are much more sensitive and many have ESP qualities (most women do and I feel it partially due to raising children.) Mothers know when their children are sick or in trouble without anyone saying one word to them. Be careful of "ghost hunters" or "psychics." While I believe there are a few good psychics (God's gift hopefully) they are few and far between. Check on the Internet and find out which psychics actually help the police solve cases of missing people. There is a lady in England that is exceptionally good and works with the police there. There are also two - three good ones in the U.S. You know you are alone in this and it's important you do the homework, have the house blessed if you need too, try just saying, "Please, leave this house." Some people even say, "You are dead. Please go towards the light." Many people claim this does the trick. I personally have never witnessed this. Catholic priests have records of Exorcisms and keep it confidential, but, it has leaked out on occasion. Until I witness this one I don't believe or disbelieve in this. I have had a couple of experiences, but friendly ones and although scared out of my wits, I knew instinctively I wasn't going to be harmed. Never mind what others think. I've gone through my whole life on my own instincts and it's kept me out of a lot of trouble. Faith helps too!

Why does your ex refuse to acknowledge his cheating or hurtful things he did to our marriage?

My ex did the same thing and I thought he was trying to make me crazy. But as I got older I realizedthat if he admittedto it than it would be realto him. By denying it, he could forget it ever happened. Don't worry what he will or won't admit or acknowledge. Youneed to be at peace with yourself and move on.

How do you wear a tiara and veil in fine hair?

Since your hair is fine, it is likely much harder for you to secure the tiara and veil. This means more of a base to anchor to. Using more, smaller bobby pins will help (versus larger hair pins, which tend to slide out easier). Also consider a metal veil comb, instead of the standard plastic. It will hold pins better. After securing the comb in your hair, pin the comb to your hair. Experiment with hair piece clips as well (the kind that hold hair extensions onto shorter hair). These actually clamp onto your hair instead of simply sliding in.

Some tiaras are actually attached to combs, so you can use similar methods to hold these in place. To avoid having to worry about the tiara and veil separately, you can get a tiara comb and sew the veil to it (in much the same way a veil attaches to a plain veil comb). The disadvantage to that approach is you cannot remove the veil without also removing your tiara.

What role God plays in a marriage?

That is a matter of belief. An atheist would say that God plays no role, since he doesn't exist.

For Christians; if you base your marriage or relationship on God's principles according to the bible, you will have a long and happy marriage! Of course, what the exact principles are, is a matter of debate, and even Christians get divorced.

Is saying sorry enough and vital to forgiving infidelity?

  • When someone acts upon infidelity then they have broken that bond of trust with their mate. Saying sorry is a start, but not enough and trust is earned. It will take time for the mate that was cheated on to forgive, but it can be done if the person who committed infidelity has only done it the once and is truly remorseful. No one is perfect and we all make mistakes, but we should learn from those mistakes and not make the same ones over again.

Duties of husband plus wife in islam?

So what rights does the wife have over the husband?

Islam has honoured woman and granted her an equal status with man. It's only ignorance and cultural practices that prevent women from receiving the rights that they're entitled to. It was Islam and not the Spice Girls that brought true Girl Power to women alright!

1. A wife has a right to choose her husband. If she doesn't want to get married to someone her parents want her to marry then she has a right to refuse. So no woman can be forced to get married in Islam - this is her basic right!

2. If she doesn't like her husband due to valid reasons then she may also get a divorce and re-marry someone else. Similarly, a widow may re-marry someone else as well.

3. She has a right to be a lady of leisure. Yep, seriously! In Islam, a husband has a duty to provide for his wife and should not force her to work to earn money- this includes clothing, food, accommodation and general care etc, and she should not be forced to work to earn money. She also has the right of Mahr (wedding gift) and inheritance. However, if she chooses to work, any money that she earns is her own and she has a right to spend it as she wishes. Now that is what I call Girl Power!

4. She has a right to keep her surname. Nowadays most women across the world lose their surname to their husbands' name, but Islam gives the wife the choice and power to keep her surname. How cool is that?

5. She has a right to be treated with kindness. Allah (swt) knows that by nature woman are more sensitive and gentle. This is why the Prophet told men to treat their women nicely. (Tirmidhi)

The Prophet advised men:

"The best amongst you, are the best for their wives, and I am the best of you for my wives." (Tirmidhi)

What rights does the husband have over the wife?

Of course, men have rights too. It's not all about the women y' know!

1. A husband should be respected by his wife in every way. Unless of course it conflicts with an Islamic obligation or goes against an Islamic teaching.

2. The husband has the right to a trustworthy and honest companion. (The same here goes for the wife too). For example, she should not lie about using birth control to stop him having a child... that would be naughty now wouldn't it?

3. The husband has a right to sexual intimacy with his wife. She should not refuse him this right - unless of course refusal is due to medical reasons in which case the husband should be caring and considerate. As they say, if you don't get any action at home, you're gonna play away. So this is in reality a right and responsibility for both the husband and wife.

4. If the husband doesn't like someone, then the wife shouldn't allow them to come to their house, she also shouldn't accept presents from such people. This is to avoid jealousy and friction between the couple.

5. The husband's possessions are his wife's trust. She needs to safeguard his property and possessions.

Where is marriage in The Bible?

The Bible has very helpful advice for marriage.

Forgiveness, patience, and sacrifice are major themes to practice in marriage.

For example:

Ephesians 4:31-32
"Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you."


Ephesians 5:21-33
"And be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.

Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body. But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her
...
Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband."



Other passages to meditate on are: 1 Peter 3:1-11 and 1 Corinthians 7:2-4.
