Would this be wrong? Read details.?
Yes, it would be wrong,unless you have explored all other viable options. Both your disabled kids might be entitled to SSI, but definitely the one with autism. Are you getting child support? If not, why not? The county welfare office will help you pursue that. Is the six year old in school full-time or still in kindergarten. Is an after school program available? Could you work just the hours the six year old is in school? The 14 year old will be 16 soon - will he be a potential driver? Group homes for kids are small institutions they are not homes. They are not free, unless your son receives Medicaid. I have a son with intellectual disabilities and mental illness. Believe I do understand that it can sometimes be overwhelming. I too am a single parent, but with only 1.
Is there such a thing as delayed grief? (please read details)?
Yes - you are grieving and you are depressed. Normal feelings for what you have gone through. Neither of those events is easy to handle. You are depressed - the irritabiloity, crying, and wanting to sleep a lot are all signs. If you have health insurance, call them up and get in to see a counselor - that way you can work through your grief. If you don't call your county office, the red cross, etc for help - there are resources out there and they can help you use them. If you belong to a church you can turn for help there. It may feel like you are alone and no one cares, but this is not true. Working with a counselor to deal with you grief will help. Getting up every day and working or voluneering someone will help. Good luck. You will be fine. There is help out there for you - and it isn't easy to ask for when you feel like you do, but once you do, everything will get better - I promise.
Is there anything off about this guy I'm dating? Please read details
Follow your gut instinct.As a retired police officer I speak from experience. I am not saying anything bad about this person, but I am asking you to listen to your tuitions.I lost count of how many times I interviewed victims who stated the signs were there, but they failed to listen to that little voice in their head. It is ALWAYS better to be safe than sorry. On the other hand, I don't have very much information to go on, so this is based strictly on the specifics you provided.For instance:The time you Don not have contact (6pm to 2am) coincides with mid pm shift. Very convenient for living a double life. Look it up.Yes, no one is proud of their home when it means it may be less than pleasant. I was there. Again, I speak from experience. If he is truthful, then he will gladly show you exactly how honest he is by taking you to his home. If he doesn't have anything to hide, the worst thing that can happen is the ball is back in your court. Don't judge, just be careful.Take precautions: meet him there and take a friend. Have a male friend go with you to watch the big game. If he is sure of himself, he will accept. Show him you are using your brain. Even if you do go out, meet him there. Don't bring him to your house. Do not let him in. You are only playing into his plans. Remember, you just met the guy.Equality: Do not be afraid to say no. How can you give him what he will not give you? Why would you be willing to do what he is not?If he goes to your home, you should go to his. If he has your work number, you should have his.If he wants to pick you up, you should be able to do the same, etc.Last but not least, the little things mean the most. If he hesitates even for a moment to give you ANYTHING you have already given him, run the other way. If he is trying to hide something, you are going to find out. For goodness sake, you just met. Good for you. You should be proud of yourself. Feel free to ask me anything. Advice is free. Your life is precious.Peace,Ralph G.
Who is wrong? (read question detail)
Looooll I seriously don't believe this!! Did you just say that?!! I mean what!! Either you're a true lover or just an idiot (sorry to say this) But seriously...how can't you get that? actually she's absolutely right here! You're the one who's going wrong! At the very first place let me tell you there was no Love in your relationship, it wasn't a relationship actually. It was just one sided love which you did..you had feelings,she refused it at the beginning later when found it's isn't working between they both she chose you as "an option" You were delighted anyway, since you 've been waiting for that moment. Again out of nowhere she starts wanting him then you then again him...what the hell! A game?? And you still don't understand all this concept wow! Fine..in simple terms she never loved you. She was attracted to that guy for sure but you were a backup plan for her. Wakeup buddy! Its all over..give an end to this story for God sake. She don't deserve it.. she deserves gaurav kinda guy! let them be happy continuing with the game. Go look for your happiness and the Love will find you! friends, smile, fun! :)Remember Love is not just a word..its an "INFINITY" !! you need alot of things to raise in love and call it a relationship. And the very first thing that stands in love is "Respect and Trust", respecting eachother's feelings, sentiments and moreover decisions..and trust is something you build out of loyalty!
I"m scared of the doctor...read details, plz...?
Sweetie, if you are only going for a checkup (I assume so since you don't mention any particular problems you are having) the chance that your doctor will have some sort of bad news for you is so small as to be nonexistant. You are only 17, presumably in good health generally, and really don't have anything to worry about. I assume, as well, that you have an appointment coming up soon...just try to keep yourself distracted in the meantime; perhaps make a trip to your local library and find something to read which requires a fairly high level of concentration on your part. If you have not already read it, you might try Douglas Adams' anthology, The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide. This volume contains 5 complete Hitchhiker novels and has several simultaneous story lines, thus requiring a fair amount of concentration to keep all the characters and their stories straight. Another series you might try is the Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde: The Eyre Affair, Lost in a Good Book, and The Well of Lost Plots. They are not exactly sci-fi and not exactly fantasy, rather they follow the adventures of the character Thursday Next in a parallel world called Bookworld. That description does not come close to doing justice to the plots and storylines; check out Fforde's website: http://www.jasperfforde.com In any case, as you know worrying will not do you any good at all. You are going to be perfectly fine. Thoughts & prayers with you, dear. For the moment, go take a hot shower to relax, explore Fforde's website, and get a good night's sleep. maybe instead of sitting in front of the 'puter all night, print some of it off to read in bed. Dim lights and being relaxed should help you sleep. Sweet dreams.
Wife wants bc, but rarely does anything, please read for details.?
My wife is 28 and I am 26. We have never had a very active sex life. It’s literally almost none existent and has been the reason of many disagreements. When we do, she insist on a condom being used. I mentioned a year ago about her taking bc so we could avoid condoms and she was hardcore against it saying she wasn’t going to take anything that messed with her horomones like that. But now, I jokingly told her to ask her dr about birth control in the morning when she goes. She told me she probably would and has nothing against them and can’t recall ever saying she wouldn’t use them. She also states that if we had sex, I would still have to use a condom. It’s been months and months since last time and I honestly don’t even want sex from her anymore cause I am pretty bitter about it. But my question is this, why do you think she changed her mind all of a sudden? Especially when we rarely ever mess around except like 2 or 3 times a year(if I’m lucky). And if you was in my situation, would you spend the money on them for her seeing as it would basically be a waste anyways?
