What do you do when your family and friends hate your husband and tell you to divorce him?
I have been married for 3.5 years. My family loved my husband in the beginning but now they hate him. So does all my friends. I have been told constantly by people to get rid of him. I do love him, but there are some things that are starting to scare me about the whole situtation help me! * Sometimes others are able to see things in your spouse that you can
You didn't mention if someone has accused you of this or not. You may be reading into too much of what people think and they may really like you. My best friend is Chinese and married my husband's Caucasian friend and they have been happily married for 19 years and have one daughter who is our Goddaughter.
There was a myth (still can exist to this day) that Asian women (especially Japanese women) use to walk 10 paces behind their husbands (a custom.) It's just plain ignorance because modern times have actually Westernized Asian cities and their people. Chinese women were always hard workers, but during the Vietnam War there were some women that had to prostitute themselves to stay alive or help support families and this also happened in the Korean War. Unfortunately, there are still some men that will go to some Asian countries to meet women and are under the illusion that she will wait on him hand and foot and not nag at him and give him anything he wants. Of course anyone with a brain would know this simply isn't true. Anyone that even puts you down you tell your husband and if he's a man he'll set the record straight with the person who has been saying these things about you. You DON'T have to prove anything! You know who YOU are and you don't need to make excuses for yourself.
Is it possible you have a chip on your shoulder and feel other people aren't nice to you or thinking these things about you? Most people usually don't. I live in British Columbia Canada and my husband have many races of friends and think nothing of it, so I don't see why you should be having a problem.
Why do some people think that if a Caucasian man marries an Asian woman it is because she is a cheap girl and don't consider that she is a hard working woman?because you can easily go to any 3rd world Asian country and many times the girl is poor and only dreams of a rich western man to take her back to their country and then she can send money back to her family (5 dollars will be alot of help). also you can find that the women do seek money, and its true for all woman if you think about it; i concider any woman cheap if she marries for money. i see alot of dirty woman who marry just for riches. but you don't notice them cause they don't stand out like the colour difference of white and yellow.
i also see many beautiful couples of white and Asian, and she doesnt look cheap at all. (quite alot, more than cheap looking ones) its common simply because its very easy to go to Vietnam for example and pick one up. lots of men choose so. also its not hard to pick up a prositute there and ask her to marry you.
also it can also be thought this way, because of the confusion and missconception of said prostitution. if you go to these countries and see a man walking with a prozzie, common place, and you wouldn't notice the same of a yellow and yellow (harder to notice) but attitudes and said common genuialisations could have developed because of the attitudes and negative opinions of the locals seeing many foreignors with their local prostitutes. also white people have a reputation with the locals, as with all cuture clashes.
if its disturbing you i would go to think harder and notice all the cheap white with white or cheap black with black and you might eventualy realise that its common with all races, its just the racial culture clash that makes it personal and/or an issue
Go and write Dr. Phil he will surely find a way to help u guys.
Why no banns in mixed marriages?
Banns of marriage were traditionally published in Catholic parishes to announce to parishioners impending marrages and to publicly solicit for any information from people who might be aware of impediments which would prevent the marriage from happening (such as previous marriage, family relationship, religious vows, etc). There was a formal system of publishing banns in the 1917 Code of Canon Law which, it seems, forbade publication of banns of "mixed" marriages, that is marrages between Catholics and baptized non-Catholics, unless the bishop decided there would be no scandal in such an announcement (CIC 1026?). In reality, the 1917 Catholic Encyclopedia reports that most parishes 'tolerated' such publications: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/02255a.htm "Mixed marriages" were (and still are) considered less-than-optimal situations for Catholics to find themselves in, as there is a real threat to the faith of a Catholic (and their children) who enters such a union. This is the root of the 'scandal' which law referrs to. The preference was (and still is) that Catholics should marry fellow Catholics. (Nowadays seeking permission to marry outside the faith, while still considered exceptional in Church law, is a perfunctory process that most prists have been given the faculties by their bishops to premit.) The reasoning would seem to be that the union of bodies and souls in marriage is diminished and hampered when the most important thing which a couple can share in this world- their faith- is not united. The entire system of publishing banns was abrogated in the 1983 code. Nowadays, the process of examinating candidates for marriage and the publishing of banns is left to the local Conference of Bishops (Canon #1067). The norms in the United States are here: http://www.usccb.org/norms/1067.htm In these norms, there is no mention and thus <i>no requirement</i> to publish banns. Indeed, the present practice of investigation would seem to be more reliable (most notably, the testimony knowledgeable witnesses and public records which indicate if previous marriages have been attempted) than relying on banns. Further, as large and (unfortunately) as impresonal as some parishes are, and as moble as young people are, it would be foolish to rely on banns as a main source of public check-and-balance... simply stated, people generally do not know each other well enough to report impediments to their parish priest. In some places, banns are still published in one form or another. This, I think, is a good practice pastorally, even though it is not required in the United States. It would also seem a good idea to publish banns of mixed marriages, but like the publication of banns themselves, this would be soley at the discretion of the pastor unless otherwise direceted by particular law of a diocese or norms of a local confrerence of bishops.
- Someone obviously made a complaint in order for a police officer to show up and accuse the new husband of trying to choke his wife. If a complaint is made the police officer has to check it out and is certainly trained to spot what is just fun or is a marital disagreement. Depending on the circumstances the police officer can take the husband away in handcuffs to cool off in jail overnight or he may believe the couple and just tell them to tone it down. If indeed the police officer witnessed the two people playing around and thought that the husband was really choking his wife then the police officer is doing his job by checking it out. Unless the wife agrees that indeed her husband was trying to choke her it is highly unlikely the husband will be charged.
im gonna say 80 percent of people in he united states have!
When is a relationship past fixing?
When she/he gave up and "hates you" and you have "hated" too, you might still love him/her but once you both hated once, its over.
What happens if a guy proposes to a girl at 14?
your 14 you shouldn't get married even if he got you pregnant
How sorry is your cheating spouse after the affair?
* As to how sorry the cheating spouse is depends on the individual who cheated. Some men make a mistake once and feel guilty and heartbroken when they realize how they have hurt their spouse or children; other men feel no remorse for cheating and are just sorry they got caught.
How much should your wife disclose of her infidelity?
How much? everything. No one is allowed to lie. It doesn't matter what
went wrong to the marriage, she still need to tell all, so her husband will get closure.
If you don't, your husband will start imagining things, and it will ruin his self esteem.
You can't just say "I'm sorry I had an affair." The wife needs to be the healer on
this situation and she needs to assure him that what had happen will not be repeated.
Infidelity will and always be the worst pain anyone can have.
In addition in scale of 1-10, 9% of married men will never tell the truth. He will say what the wife wants to hear from him but not all the truth. Men that can and will tell all the truth are the one that leaves his wife. He will not loose anything if he tells the truth, but for some they can't not because they're protecting their wives, no this married men are protectiong themselves. The man I married did this to me..
- I go through this allot myself. Most recently he accused me of cheating because a pack of lighters on too of our dresser was moved from the position it was in when he left for work. I stay home all day with our four year old son, and I believe that does not think that is a real job and that I sit around all day doing nothing. I don't know why he would think that I would have an affair with our son around, but he thinks something is going on the he does not know about. So maybe he accuses you of cheating because you are home while he is working. (stay at home mom or working opposite hours) Also, has he been cheated on in the past? My husband's ex cheated on him every time they would fight, and I think that is a large part of why he always thinks that I am cheating on him, although it really has nothing to do with me.
- There are a few reason why a husband accuses his wife of cheating: his mother or father cheated on the other; one of his girlfriends (perhaps more than one) may have cheated on him; he is of a very jealous natures; he is cheating himself or he feels you are his property and wants it to remain that way by accusing you of cheating so if you are not and may be thinking of it because he is driving you away from him, he is then correct. Marriage is based on trust and the two of you should sit down and use communication skills. If this does not work then tell him he either goes with you for marriage counseling or you will file for divorce because this is no way to live. If you have children this is not a good environment for them to grow up in.
If a husband said F You' to his wife what would he be implying?
- The term 'F you' is a slang saying generally generated out of anger and the husband saying it to his wife is basically saying 'Take your comment or idea and shove it' meaning he is disagreeing with her.
It is possible, neither faith requires your potential spouse to convert. I have known of several successful inter-faith marriages involving Mormons and other Christians. However, it will probably not be easy and will require a lot of mutual respect.
Most Mormons and Christians prefer to marry someone who shares their faith, but many are open to marrying someone who has different religious beliefs. If you do marry someone of a different religion, it is important that you show respect for their faith and practices. It is a good idea to attend each other's worship services, participate in each other's religious traditions, and choose to respectfully disagree rather than argue when it comes to religious differences. Before you have children, you will need to discuss how you will approach religion with them. Many have their children attend both churches and learn the tenets of both religions until they are old enough to decide for themselves which to join.
Why men continue practicing mast after marriage?
Men continue practising masturbation after marriage is not unusual, some women do it too. A wife may be glad, as it means she is not pestered for sex by her husband too often during the week. A husband masturbating is not a reflection on the wife. It is usually done as a sexual relief that is quick and doesn't entail foreplay and sex with a wife who may not really be in the mood!
Some people believe marriage is an institution created by God, and therefore they want to get married by a pastor. But it is not necessary to get married by a pastor for your marriage to be legal.

Your husband has put weight on and you dont find him physically attractive what can you do?
Are you in shape yourself? If not suggest you work out together, maybe get a gym membership together. My parents go on walks for about an hour a day, walking may not seem like major exercise, but after a year or so of them walking their weight loss is noticeable. Plus its a great bonding time for them, and good relaxation to get out of the stressful world.
Also you may control his diet for the most part if you prepare meals for him. Try adjusting portion size, and even cooking healthier meals.

How shall I reply when people mistake me for my husband's mother?
* Although this may sound odd it is more common than one thinks and either the husband can appear older looking or the wife (the wife may be several years older than her spouse) and when people mistake you for being his mother then simply correct them and move on. There is nothing to be embarrassed about.
If you have been waiting for three years for him to ask you to marry him what is taking so long?
Some men are just terrified of marriage, while other men enjoy getting all the "niceties" for nothing. 3 years is long enough to wait, so communicate to him how you feel and tell him, "I want commitment, and if you aren't willing to give it to me then that's it. I want to get married some day and have children, so I'm not willing to waste anymore of my time." Say it blunt, to the point and he's going to have to make a decision. When I was going with my 2nd husband, he'd not been married before, but I was divorced. We had a hoot together and we loved each other so much, but he was terrified of marriage. After going with him for almost 5 years I said, "You're going to buy this cow, because you're sure not getting the milk for free!" We parted company for approx. 6 months, but after that he missed me so much he was back with an engagement ring. Don't waste your life and don't give yourself away for free without some commitment. Good luck Marcy
Answer Marcy, I have read several of your posts and I really like your answers. I have been with my son's father for almost two years and I, too, am tired of waiting for the proposal. I'm actually coming up to a big crossroads in my life (getting ready to transfer to a four-year university next summer) and since we are a long-distance relationship, I set a deadline for a proposal (by the end of my stay with him in August). Not only am I tired of waiting, I need to know so I can plan on where I should go to school. We've talked openly about marriage and we know how we each feel about it. I advise you to light a little fire under him and say "Baby, I love you. I have wanted to marry you for (3) years and I still want to marry you. I need to know where we're headed so I can look for (schools, a job, etc.) to acommodate our relationship." Obviously, you don't want him to marry you because he has to, but let him know that you have a life too, that you're wasting time on him because you love him and you want to know that you're going somewhere together. Be gentle, but firm. He'll get the point.
What to do when you find out your marriage is a lie?
You have several options:
-Work to make truth out of it, usually through good communications with your spouse and/or marital counseling
-End the lie quickly (and often, sadly) with a divorce.
-Keep living with a lie.
