Dr. Klein, Why do women feel compelled to fix what they would consider to be a broken marriage and men don't even notice or seem to care?

Why do I devalue myself so much that my life becomes all about having a man in order to feel whole?

Hi Dr. Klein, Why is it men don't listen and are shocked when the marriage is over? Is it simply denial??

What does a woman do when she looses her spouse after 30 years. How does she survive and manage to keep her head above water?

What are some things I can do to help myself? Is there any light you can shed on this for me? I miss him every day. I've had 2 major loses in my life. First my 26 year old son and now my husband. What are the odds of my getting sick after loses like this? I've heard they're fairly high. Is that true? Is there a support group you can recommend?

Thank you!

What can a do about my bossy mother-in-law who sticks her nose into our business way too much?

I recently got married (my second marriage) and just learned that my new mother-in-law is racist and homophobic. I am appalled. She openly talks about how she doesn't trust African-American people. She'll send me "forward" emails containing homophobic jokes that I find offensive. I know she doesn't mean any harm, she just doesn't know any better. And she's certainly not going to change. I'm not sure how I can have a relationship with her because of these issues and I'm wondering if it will affect my new marriage. How do I talk with my husband about this and let him know how offensive I find her comments/jokes and how ignorant I think she is and yet not offend him?

Dear Dr. Klein,

I recently got into a new relationship and the man is collecting unemployment (blue collar worker) and going to school to finish his college degree at the moment. I am a highly educated woman and make a decent living.

We rarely do things that entail money and this does not bother me, but I tend to feel that there is a problem on his side that I make more money or that I may even be a male ego killer since I am very independent. We are an outdoorsy couple, so rarely is money an issue.

Could you please offer me some advice on how to remain independent but certainly add the boost to the male ego at the same time?

Dear Dr. Klein-

When is a long-distance relationship an unhealthy attachment between two people, even if they are in love?
