If you suspect your spouse is cheating, it can leave you with some very uneasy feelings to deal with. Those feelings aren’t going to go away, so you will need to find out one way or another. You can ask your spouse, but there is the chance that they won’t be completely honest with you about it. There can also be hurt feelings if it turns out your spouse wasn’t cheating but doing something for you, such as planning a romantic getaway.
Should you get married?
If you’re going to be a parent but you are not married yet, what will you do? To marry or not to? I believe it depends on the individuals. But based on what I observe, men usually don’t see the need to get married, just like this man said, "I don’t really see the point." But it’s a totally different point of view for women. After all, men and women are from different planets…
What about you?

More about my son learning to walk
My one-year old toddler now walks more than crawl. About last two weeks, he only walked 2-3 steps and back to crawling again. But this time, he walks more. Even then, when he walks, he tends to wobble. It’s kinda cute to watch him walk. It’s like a gigantic task for him. Even though we sometimes can’t help but laugh at him, he can’t be bothered but continue walking.

A different perpective into your child’s thinking
My wife has recently started playing a game with my daughter before bed time. I am just an observer and I am amazed by the sheer power of the game despite its simplicity.
Here’s how to play the game:
Ask your child, "What’s your happiest moment for today?" And followed by, "What’s your saddest moment of today?"
Yes, that simple. Then just keep your mouth shut and listen without making comments. Just acknowledge what you hear. And my daughter likes the game so much, she created her own questions like "Mommy, what about what I am most upset with?"
What do you think we did? Of course, let her talk and complain about what she wanted to say. Sometimes, I just giggled silently to the answers she gave.
But that’s not all. The best part is I am amazed to find out how my daughter thinks. Once, I was the "object" for making her angry one day. "Daddy talked to me very loudly when she asked me to tidy up the toys." she said.
To me, of course, I didn’t agree that I was rough when I spoke to her because as far as I was concerned, I did talked to her nicely. But this was not what she thought. By listening to her sharing her inner thoughts, I discover how she thinks and how she weighs certain things more than others. This is a good way to learn what makes her tick and how I can be more careful when dealing with her.
I must thank my wife for initiating this bedtime game. It’s an eye-opener, indeed.
