  Frustrated with sister-in-law

  My sister in-law and I have a relationship where we tolerate eachother to avoid conflict.  I've known her and my husband for 16 years now and she's always been manipulative.  She manipulates my husband and anyone she can in order to get her way and it's caused a lot of conflict in our marriage.  It's to the point where I feel like my needs and wants will always be dismissed, as long as she's allowed to meddle in our lives.  I enforce boundaries that aren't respected by my husband, so she...

  Emotional abuse can be so confusing.  It sneaks up on you.  When I met my ex, the father of my first born child, "my high school sweetheart", I thought we were a good match.  I thought we had a healthy relationship.  We were together for 4 years. We got engaged right after we graduated high school.  I know what most people think about being in serious relationships when you're still young and trying to figure life out.  No one really expects you to be together forever, but still I...

  What kind of boundaries do you have in your marriage with the opposite sex? Would you be comfortable if your spouse wanted to spend a Saturday night out with a group of coworkers of the opposite sex, while you stayed home and watched your twin babies?For the stay at home moms:  Would you be ok with your spouse going out without you on the weekend, leaving you home alone with twin babies that you're with by yourself all week?  Would you be ok with your spouse hanging out with the opposite...

  if anyone has any positive stories to share about giving birth to micro-preemies, please share below.  I could use a lot of encouragement, as I pray that everyone who has ever been put in this situation has been able to find the strength to move forward each day and find peace.  I am struggling to do this because their pain is my pain and pain is all I can see right now.

  I've recently been put on bedrest at the hospital for the remainder of my pregnancy and can no longer do anything for myself other than use the bathroom and shower.  I cannot go ANYWHERE.  I'm using my imagination because these four walls will be all that I know for the next month or two. I know there are worst things that can happen in life and I'm trying to stay positive, however it is sooo hard for me to rely on other people, including my husband because like a lot of women I know, I'm...

  I was molested a few times at the age of 5 by another child at daycare who was also 5.  He would ask me to hide under an office sized desk with him that was in another room, away from everyone else and he would touch me inappropriately.  One of the incidents that makes me cringe the most when I think about it is how he actually attempted to put his private inside of me.  I think about this sometimes because I remember feeling so much shame and guilt that day when my mom came to pick me up...
