Ask the Marriage Maven: Help! My Husband's Buddies are Butting into My Marriage

Q. My husband always wants to hang out with his "boys". He used to hang out with them a lot before we got married, and I thought that after we got married things would change and that he'd want to spend more time with me. Wrong!

It would be different if they did something productive, but all they do is sit around watching TV, playing video games, and listening to music. None of them have wives or serious girlfriends, except my husband-- so I know they talk about other women, too.

J. N.

A. It is important that you and your husband spend a good amount of time together, especially as you guys are still learning what marriage is all about. But breaking up the boys club could be disastrous to your marriage. So I would not recommend telling your husband to cut his friends off completely, unless they are encouraging him to be unfaithful to you or contributing to addictive behaviors.

Help...Newlywed Marriage Advice?
My wife and I have been married for over 8 months and I love her dearly, but I just have a couple of questions that I could use some advice on: When we were dating we had sex several times a day, then we moved in together and it went down to about 1 a week, and then since we got married it’s been once a month, and now it’s May and the last time we had sex was in January (we’ve fooled around since then, but no sex) Also Last night I started making out with my wife and things were beginning to get pretty hot and heavy (kissing and touching) when suddenly my wife threw me off of her and told me no. Is there something that I’m doing wrong, I know she still loves me, I still love her and her sex drive has always been an issue, mine being super high and hers being super low? Am I wrong for wanting to make love to her, I kinda feel like I'm in the wrong and I feel a littlfe depressed about all this. Any advice I can get is welcomed.

Can someone help me find the christian marriage advice I really need?
I am a christian and I take my marriage vows very seriously, so I don't intend to leave my husband, especially since we have a 2-year old son. As a result, I feel hopelessly trapped in a marriage that will leave me with unending pain, anger, disappointment and overall unhappiness. We have been married for almost 4 years. He insists on keeping a job with wierd hours. He won't finish school so he can get a better job either. He's always said we can't afford it. I recenly found out that's because he's been hiding ,000 in debt from me (by lots of lies and deception). My pregnancy was a total off the wall surprise, but he still later accused me of getting pregnant on purpose. This is just the tip of the iceberg as far as the things that he's done to me. I've tried to find christian marriage advice books, but they all seem to run under the assumption that the guys just getting on your nerves, not that he's a lying jerk. I'm embarassed to go to my pastor. Please help me, someone.

Marriage questions?? any advice please help.?
My husband and I have had problems for about a year now. We have been married for 8 years almost 9 in july. We made some mistakes in getting involved with another couple who we went farther than being friends with. I don't advise swinging at all by the way. The other man and me hit it off great, and by the way this was my husbands fantasy and i finally went along after hearing about it for 3 years. I was not out there looking for anyone or anything, had no idea we obviously had issues in our marriage. well if we didn't we do now. My husband decided he was not interested in the lady after several encounters. I had continued a friend relationship with both and so had he, but I talked to the other man a lot. I liked keeping a good friend. We have lots in common. Well now he does not trust me, so he has been a jerk for a long time. This was a mistake both of us made and we are paying dearly. My feelings have changed bigtime now. I don't trust him either. I realize now had he truly loved
