Dear Diana,
My husband walked out on me six days ago, after a fight. He said he was going to stay at his mother's. I don't like a husband who can just get up and leave like this. I would never do this to him. He has tried to call but I'm too hurt to answer. I think he should come home and say sorry, not fob me off with a text or a call.
I'm at home crying. We have only been married eight months. The fight was about him not spending more time with me. I just don't know what to do. Also, a family member died and he's upset about that. But I can't help if he runs away. Is he cheating or doesn't he love me anymore?

Dear Ritika,
Negotiations can only take place if either side wants it. If your guy saw there was no point arguing, I wouldn't fault him for opting for some alone time. Of course, the more prudent thing would be to apologise face-to-face (don't know who's at fault, though) rather than text or call. It takes two to make a marriage work and I agree he ought to be man enough to face you. I wouldn't go as far as to say he's cheating on you (there's no way to know). Does he love you? If he didn't, he wouldn't even have tried to get back in your good books.
But I wanna marry him!
Dear Diana,
We're in love but our parents aren't ready to accept the fact that we want to be married. He doesn't earn that much for us to stay apart from his parents. I can't live without him. What should I do?

Dear YT,
How prepared are you for a marriage? Does your guy earn enough to provide at least for the two of you? Do you have a job to supplement his income? Most importantly, do you have a support system to fall back on? Get all these things in place before thinking of getting married.
I want her, not her kids
Dear Diana,
I'm 22 and am having an affair with a 32-year-old married woman with two kids. For six months now, we have been having wild sex in hotel rooms and at my place. She promises she will leave her husband once she figures out her children's future. I want to be with her but I don't want her kids.

Dear Friend,
Like it or not, if you want her you are going to have to deal with having her kids as well. Your best bet is giving up on the relationship before it goes much farther. I have a feeling she has no plans to actually leave her husband or kids. Don't fool yourself. rarely does a woman (or man) actually leave their spouse for the person they are having an affair with.
