Ok so my brother (28) recently got a divorce. His ex-wife just walked out on him and our family with no explaination what so ever. She has been in our family for over 7 years (5 they dated/engaged and 2 were married) and has become a sister to me.

I feel like I need my parents' approval for the important decisions I make in my life. I am 24, just finished graduate school, and am currently looking for a job. I want to go to Ireland for St. Patty's day, however my parents think it is a bad idea because I don't have a job. I have the money and time for it, so I feel like now is the best time.

A year ago my best friend of ten years decided to cut ties with me, and she hasn't spoken to me since. Now, months later, she keeps sending my boyfriend, who she was never even friends with, pokes and friend requests on Facebook. He hasn't responded to any of these, and I've just been ignoring them.

I've had the same two best friends since I was 11. We are now in our third year of college (we all go to the same school) and I couldn't feel further apart from them. When we were younger, it was rare that a weekend passed that we didn't spend together. Now they both have boyfriends. And as soon as they started dating our time together slowly decreased.

My husband and I got married June 2009. Right after we got married we moved across the country and less than six months later we came back home. We moved again a year later and again a year after that. We're loving where we are now and have FINALLY unpacked all of our boxes.
