I am pregnant... my live-in boyfriend is upset

Dear Diana,
I have been with my guy for four years. We are living in together. We were in no hurry to get married as we were determined to make a mark in our respective careers. Those who don't know about our relationship, assume we are husband and wife. Now I have realised that I am pregnant. It was confirmed last week and we have not told anyone. I told him that we should have a small marriage ceremony soon. All this while I practised safe sex but guess we got carried away in the heat of the moment. Now he is blaming me for what has happened. What do I do? Time is running out for us.

Dear Friend,
I can understand your predicament. At this most delicate juncture, your guy is acting tough as if you alone are to blame about what has happened. You have to talk to him. You cannot waste a single day. As you desire, have a small ceremony at home with only family and friends. There is no need for a big fat wedding as you have been living in for a while, your folks will understand. Tell them it was a sudden decision and that he sprung a surprise by proposing to you and that you'll decided to wed at the spur of the moment.

Should I take my guy to a family wedding?

Dear Diana,

I am going for a family wedding next month. Should I take my guy along? We have been going steady for almost a year. Except for my sister and parents no one from my family has met him.

Dear Anjoree,

It's a good idea to extend an invitation to him. This is one chance for him to meet your extended family. Taking him along is sort of an unofficial announcement that he is your man to be. But remember if both of you are sure about a future together, then only take him along.

I am superstitious

Dear Diana,

My wife and I disagree about everything. And just to her luck whatever she says happens! She is now nagging me yet again. She is telling me to make a will and divide whatever we have between our son and daughter. I tell her what is the hurry? But she insists. Looks like this is her way of bumping me off. I am superstitious as whatever she has said in the past comes true. How do I delay the will making?

Dear LK,
You have heard of coincidences, right? That is what is happening to you. Life happens. You have to deal with it. It has nothing to do with what one says. Lose your superstitions and get going with your life. People make their wills years in advance and live to a ripe old age. Making a will does not spell doomsday. You can delay its making for a while by telling your wife that you need to put ample thought to it and seek a legal opinion. And keep those superstitious thoughts at bay.
