My situation, of course, is not the worst; it’s not worse than what some people go through. I got married three years ago. I married a man who at that time clearly didn’t need it. I was pregnant with my first child then. I was also absolutely convinced that a child must be born within … Read more

One of my closest friends seems to have developed an unusual interest in my husband. She is not openly flirting with him, and there is nothing obvious or direct that I could point to as “proof.” Perhaps she is not even fully aware of her own behavior. Still, I notice the small things—how she laughs … Read more

For many years, I always earned more than my wife, and in our family it was something we never really questioned or discussed. I provided more financially, made most of the financial decisions, and I always saw myself as the main support of the household. But two years ago, everything changed in a way I … Read more

I’m not sure what to call this, but I definitely have some mental health issues. I went to a psychotherapist and also to a psychologist. It didn’t really help much. I don’t take antidepressants or any other medication. But sometimes I get overwhelmed so strongly that it becomes hard to even get up from my … Read more

At every meeting, my friend constantly either complains about her husband or praises him.

My daughter grew up without a father. She is now 19, and she is in a relationship with a man who is 27 years older than her—he is even older than me. He is divorced, has children, even grandchildren. And I cannot even find the right words to describe what I feel inside. I feel … Read more

I feel like my husband’s ex-wife is too present in our family life. My husband says their son is at a difficult age and needs constant supervision, that his stepfather has no authority over him, that he’s angry at his father for living separately, and that’s why he has to stay in close contact with … Read more

I can’t understand my daughter-in-law, who went back to work just three months after maternity leave. They hired a nanny for my granddaughter. Then why have a child at all, just to hand her over to someone else? Even normal people spend more time with their pets than this mother does with her baby! After … Read more

I want to tell everyone: take care of your health while you’re still young, so you don’t become a burden to your children in old age. My mother had a stroke. She lives alone, and I’m 500 kilometers away from her. I took unpaid leave and spent three exhausting weeks by her side in the … Read more
