Is it normal for a husband to control wife's money?

Diana @dya80dya (33510) 10 Apr

I talked to my father today. He started to yell at me when I spoke with him more. It was like I was my mom and he lost control. But this isn't a problem, I can deal with that. But he said that it's normal to control my mom's...

besweet No it's not normal. I 've experienced most of what you are saying, and things rarely get better. If you ever need to talk by pm you can send me a message.

Another site disappeared

Diana @dya80dya (33510) 10 Apr

There was a site that paid $0.9 daily. A friend convinced me to invest $10. I refused. He invested this amount. We had to see ads every day. It was an effort to watch those ads because the site had errors. I tried to convince my...

besweet It's better that you didn't invest. Your friend doesn't want to believe that he lost his money because of a bad decision. It happens, we all make wrong decisions sometimes.

I need to avoid my father

Diana @dya80dya (33510) 14 Apr

From now on I will try to avoid him. My father is telling me that he wants a divorce and that he will find another woman. This shows his lack of empathy. He started to use abusive words towards my mom even if she wasn't home. He...

besweet I don't think he will leave, and you can't count on that, I believe you should make a plan for yourself to get out. I would say even get some help from family or friends, what does your mother want to do? You can't solve his problem and it's not your fault,...

Mildred Tabitha @mildredtabitha (16052) • Nairobi, Kenya 14 Apr

I remember on the 13th of last month, there was free kidney screening at a neighbouring hospital. My weight was 73 kgs. I was told I was overweight. So I decided to walk as a way of exercising. I walked 40 minutes every evening...

Colonoscopy & Endoscopy done....I spilled apple juice everywhere.

****DANIELLE**** @VivaLaDani13 (60355) • Perth, Australia 13 Apr

I am happy that the Colonoscopy and Endoscopy are completed. I was very nervous about the whole thing. I was worried about the procedures itself but was worried for the results. I just kept on thinking that something had to be...

besweet You have so many tests being done. Glad everything was normal. It is stressful, and it's also good that the doctors are checking all the possibilities. Al least you don't need to get unnecessary medication any more.

My former neighbor is out of her mind

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (115993) • United States 11 Apr

How does one determine how much sleep is needed

Ken @kanuck1 (4394) 12 Apr

We all know that we need to sleep and that we need enough sleep. If we don't get enough sleep we are not functioning at our optimal state. I know that I should go to bed earlier than I do but never do. I hate going to bed. I must...

besweet I don't get as much as I need, that's life. I know I've slept enough when I wake up rested, it happens once in a while. As a student I had a friend who always woke up at the same time without an alarm. I'd love to be able to do that.

Are you Affording Everything You Need?

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (86755) • United States 11 Apr
