My son came out about 2yrs ago, he asked me not to tell his Dad( my husband).I still have not told my husband, this is not my story to tell it is my Son's. Your son trusts you, don't break that trust by telling his Dad.

DH is putting feelers out for a possible transfer.We can deal with the storms,critters (except maybe the flying roaches), and crime( we have lived in high crime states in the past). I am just really nervous, we really regret our last move( Utah). Any info would be greatly appreciated .

I just told an annoying aquaintance this." All people with blue eyes,ever born share a common ancestor.Maybe just maybe the "curse of Cain" is actually all of us with blue eyes." Don't think I'll be invited to many things anymore.

Welcome to Utah,it's a bit of a strange place to get used to( 11 yrs in December and I still think I am stuck in the Twilight Zone) Though they do roast Hatch Chilis now at some of the grocery stores.Even if you hate the chili's you get a good idea of who is from New Mexico or Colorado.

If you have children or plan to have children;do not consider the move(imho).We went through hell and back with my oldest.He was bullied so badly and pushed into a corner that at nine he was suicidal. If, this is a have to move,make sure you live outside of Utah County like others have said. Either way, best wishes on your journey. I wanted to add,not trying to scare you away from

OP your not being a crybaby,living in Utah,specially Utah County can be and is a hurtfull experience (more so if you have children involved.). It is not you or you family,t is broken people who only know how to treat others in unkind ways.

Grilled lamb if it's nice,roasted in the oven if not nice outside.Baked potatoes,roasted or grilled asparagus,Caesar Salad with anchovies, and a heated up frozen cherry pie.I have no idea when we will do eggs or baskets probably Friday or next weekend due to the fact DH likes to keep the religious and the bunny part seprate, and spring brakes does not start till the April fourth.

My Dad who is in his 70s gets this on his arms( I freaked out the first time I saw them on him,because it looked like somebody had beaten him or he had a nasty fall).His did not bleed though as far as I know. Basically, he was told that as he got older his skin became more thinner and more likely to get the spots.He rarely gets them as long as he uses sun screen and wares his light ware long sl

I know it's the easy way out my son who attends public school is 7.I am really honest about the things that are not okay in the Church, and they know that discrimination in any form is wrong.They know that what the Church has done with regards to gay marriage is wrong,and the crud that they are pulling now is evil. We have also payed the price,by having some really rotten things done to us in

Ugh I would not be thrilled if my kiddo came home with one,but I would not want to ruin his fun either and would just tell him Choose the right, means for you to be who you are because, thats the right thing to do.

Seriously how evil can the leaders get?I can not wrap my head around this kind of hate.My heart brakes for all of those stuck inside of this sick cult,specially if they happen to be gay.The whole desperation crud is just scary.Don't they have a clue?That,the kind desperation they are asking for leads to suicide in people.This just makes me sad and angry.

My DH after 12 years finally figured out that he was taking me for granted, I don't want either of you to be in the hurtful postion we are in now (it sucks,and there have been a lot of tears and some anger).This can be a really easy and loving fix if you do something now.

Never LDS and neither is my husband.Wow, I totally understand how your wife feels,please take the advice of everyone (it's good advice).IMHO you are taking your wife for granted.The good thing is you realize something is a bit off in your relationship, now go do something nice for your wife,even if it is just a card saying thanks and telling her how much she means to you.

Have fun with your wife, go to some adult shops together.You can make up for lost time without sleeping around.Honestly sex and the single scene is nowhere as good as opening up the horizons with sombody who you love and loves you.
