I don't feel like i'm suited for relationships. your thoughts/any advice?
I don't know what it is, but i just don't feel suited for relationships. It is like every girl i meet, something happens and we stop seeing each other/go our separate ways. I don't know whether it's my lack of dating experience, but I now feel reluctant to date and become serious with a person in fear that it will run it's…

DIY Divorce
Ive been following the https://www.wikivorce.co.uk website and their diy guide. The law states that if you've lived with a person for 6 months after discovering adultery, you can't use that as your reason for divorce. I went down the unreasonable behaviour. Stated the adultery and date, that we had tried but I found him to…

What to send a friend who has lost her mum?
I've just found out that a friend of mine (who has been very 'off the radar' recently) moved back to her family home in April because her mum died. This friend is quite a private person and doesn't have Facebook, so I was unaware and just thought she was busy. It's not unusual for us to go months without contact, even…

Divorce and property issue. Need help.
Hi, I am currently in the early stages of divorce from my wife, I am still living in the property as I can't afford to move out. Our total bills split in half would be more than my wages, my wife earns 3 times what I do, am I expected to just find the money for half of everything? What happens if I can't? Sorry I know this…

It got me thinking that I would like him to (I loved swimming in the sea as a kid). The issue I have is what do people do with their stuff whilst they are in there? I can lock money and house…

pregnant with no home
This week I discovered I'm pregnant at 32 for the first time. My current situation is that I live in my boyfriends parents guest room as I couldn't afford to private rent for both of us anymore. I have since discovered that we cannot stay until March as initially planned. So I suggested looking for a small home to mortgage…

Is it unreasonable to expect someone to turn up on time?
This is getting ridiculous now. There's someone I know who sometimes picks me up and a time is always agreed. He is never on time and always uses ridiculous excuses. Is it really too much to ask that he turns up on time? It's almost alway because he overslept. If it was something like traffic, I would be ok with it. But…

Harassment from neighbour
Hi all, I've lived in my place for around 6 years. All was well until about 2 years ago, when a neighbour suddenly started being difficult. This guy has done a lot of strange things, but is now taking it to a level of harassment. There's no other word for it. Basically, every time I take my dog round the block for an…

Giving Neighbour gift for babysitting
I wonder if you can advise. Our normal babysitter is away on holiday and a very kind neighbour has agreed to sit for our children tonight. She has refused payment, saying it is a neighbourly gesture, but I feel awkward. She has a really busy day today and I think she would prefer an early bed, but is putting herself out to…

Son is 24 and started his first serious relationship with a girl last Christmas with her moving in to live with us in January.

Monthly curse so debilitating
Hi It's that time of the month again and I'm lying on the bed with a throbbing headache, feeling nauseous and generally fed up with how my period knocks me for six every month. A few days before I actually start menstruating, I can feel my mood change, then I get e fuzzy head which usually turns into a super headache that…

At what age did you stop getting asked for ID?
Went to the local shop tonight to buy some cigarettes and got asked for ID, its only a local shop so they have no policy like Sainsbury's "over 25" etc. I said really?? luckily I did have ID in my bag, then she proceeded to try and calculate my age from my DOB. I'm 26 and I definitely think I look it. The lady said oh…
