    Just a few more questions?

    Who's going to pay for the upkeep of the car?

    Who's going to put fuel in the car?

    Who's going to make the payments if any, on the car?

    If you breakup (it happens) who gets the car?

    Its not just about sharing in the use of the car but the other requirements of the car.

    Settle all the questions BEFORE purchase,that way there is less likely to be an row over who was supposed to do what.

    Well we both going to share the cost of the car. Hes buying it with his work bonus.

    Oh don't worry, I don't plan on sharing a car forever. Income tax time next year, Im getting my own car.

    During these tough economic times, sharing a car does seem to be a wise decision. Do you currently share a car? What's the set up like now?

    If you can settle on the use and upkeep of the car,its fine to share the cost and running.

    For me personally I prefer to have my own car,I pay for it,I can come and go as I please,and I'm not waiting for someone to get home so I can go.

    Yeah that is what I was thinking. No we have never shared a car before. We've never had our own car before. We would always drive family members vehicles

    What do you mean what is the set up?

    Like if you owned a car now, but since you don't it's no longer an issue.

    Sometimes it all depends on how you started as a couple. My wife and I had already established careers and we were independent to begin with. We each had cars and decided to keep it that way. Now with two kids and various sports and hobbies we could never be a one car family.

    Im having a bad day. How can I get over it and have a good day?
    Im having a bad day because I don't really want to be at work today. Im also a little jealous that my fiancé gets out of work early today, so that is kind of making my day more bad.

    Does anyone have any advice on how I can get over this and have a good day?

    Thanks!

    Just get on with your work and distract yourself, focus on what you have to do.
    You are obviously on AMHD from work, not a good idea if you are supposed to be working.

    It's Friday!

    Do this, look at the local obituary page, if you don't see your name in there, you should be having a better day than those people that ARE on the list.

    Be grateful for what you DO have.

    Snap out of it, and plan a great weekend!

    I feel your pain hotpotato. My wife is off today and I would love to be at home right now. But I can't because I had a big meeting this morning. So to make up for this I think I am going to treat myself to a great lunch at my favorite Chinese restaurant near my job.

    So I say if you can treat yourself to a great lunch. You can leave your job for a little bit and have some alone time. Then when you get back from your great lunch you will only have a few hours left. Hope this helps. Good Luck today!!

    It is almost Noon on the east coast so you should be about half way through your day!

    Your day is probably over now, so you're home free. No further chance of anybody making your day, "more bad".

    You know the thing about having a bad day is because you woke up and expected it. Just try to be happy and patient with work. Don't be a brat. There's many people without jobs who can't make their monthly bills or feed their family. At our current economic situation we who have jobs should be very thankful that we do. :) Plus being positive will make things a hell lot better. :D

    Do men go through mid life crisis or something at 30
    Hi you guys! Its been awhile since I been here :-) hope all is well with everyone.

    Anyhow, I am having a little problem with my fiancé. One minute he's fine and in a happy and playful mood and then the next he act like he has a attittue with me or don't want to be around me and barely talks to me. And I haven't done anything wrong!!

    Like today, he comes running into the bedroom where I'm at and dances in front of me (ya know being playing) happy and all. Then he goes back into the living room to watch TV. So then about 30 minutes later I go into the living room where he was... he's wrapped up in a blanket with the light off watching TV like he gone fall asleep on the couch. So anyhow, I go sit next to him and say "I hope your not going to sleep out here" and he just looks at me as if I'm bothering him or I did something wrong.

    So when he does come in the bedroom I ask him what's wrong and he says "nothing" and pretty much goes to sleep. All this happned within 1 hour and 30 minutes lol. I don't understand what is wrong with him. What should I do you guys?
