My fiance and I have been engaged for six years. He was previously married for 25 years and had four children with his ex; they are all adults. I know that he has to keep in touch with her because of the children, but they call one another for other things. He lends her money, she does billing for him, she texts him and they always talk on the phone behind my back. I am getting concerned here, because every time I mention her, he gets defensive. He defends her above me. I feel like I should stay away. What can I do?

In this time of uncertainty, it is even more important to focus on your relationship and strengthen the connections between you and the one who stands beside you.

Beliefs are the foundation of who we are, what we think, what we choose to say and how we act. They can be positive and negative, and they shape our experiences in the world. If we have positive beliefs, the world responds to us in a positive way. However, when we have negative beliefs, we actually limit our life. A limiting belief plays a big role in having what you truly desire in your love relationships. When you are young, society instills these beliefs in you, but you do not have to hold on to them if they are not working for you. Your potential in love is limitless, and the key is to be aware of your own limiting beliefs. You want to create the environment that fosters attraction rather than settling for what ever comes your way? The first step is to be aware of them. Here are a few common limiting beliefs that may be getting in the way of you and your true love experience:

I just found out after 28 years of marriage that my husband had a seven-month affair with a co-worker. He would drink with her at a bar and then they would have sex. After a few months, she became pregnant, and my husband did not tell me. He didn't have anything to do with her or the child. I am really confused and don't know what to do. The child is now 9 years old.

President Barack Obama has been taking some hard hits lately from opponents of his health care reform plan, so he probably really appreciated the warm welcome he got from his daughters and dog, Bo, when he returned from a trip to Ohio and Pennsylvania last week.

Malia, 11, and Sasha, 8, played with Bo while they waited for their dad's helicopter to land on the South Lawn. When he finally arrived, all three ran across the lawn to greet Obama. Cuteness ensued.
