How do you know when something won't work out?

How do you know when something just isn't going to work out? How soon is too soon to say "Hey, this probably isn't going to happen between us"? 

I've never been in a romantic relationship, but recently this guy and I started talking and yesterday we hung out at his place, where things got a bit more physical. The thing is, I'm not sure I'm feeling it anymore. And I don't know if I'm jumping to conclusions about our potential (or lack thereof), or if my concerns and doubts are legitimate. I'm worried that I might be cutting him off too soon, but at the same time I didn't feel anything when we were making out. I don't know if that is normal because I've never been in a relationship before. Is it possible that feelings could develop if I stuck around more? What do you guys think?

It will be okey: I promise...

So here I am... Sitting at my office and trying to write some feelings, which I never did, not at a blog. So where do I start?

My feelings: maybe you know what I am talking about: your world has turned up side down. Actually it couldn't get worse, I thought.
I am living in Austria with my son and his mother, yes his mother, not my girl, not the one I love. I guess once in my live I made a choice, love hurts, love makes live complicated. We have build a house but as time passes, I feel something is missing. Something that should fill us with warmth and strength. No need to say what I felt. But somehow I just went on and on, feeling more empty and more lost by the days. I was happy to work and come home late. I started to work for a big company and started to work abroad in Poland, US, Canada, Brazil and many other countries in Europe and around the world. But I flew from reality, somehow it kept me alive. I felt good, getting to know other people and seeing something from the world, which is so beautiful and interisting.
In 2007 I was assigned to do a job in Russia, Nizhniy Novgorod. I did some tooling work for GAZ. As I got the job, as a Project Manager by my company, nobody wanted to do the job and I didn't know what was waiting for me. Now I know... It changed my life.

As I arrived in NN at MGJSO, I got an office next to the directors office, with a colluege from Detroit. This colluege became a close friend. We went out to have a smoke several times a day to the designated smoking area. There where several people coming there, but since I don't speak Russian, I had mainly contact with the Austrian guys and some of the Russians, who did speak english. One of those, I spoke with, was the secretary of the director. She had catched my eye, as her hairstyle and dresses where so much different from the rest. Slowly as the time past, we went together to have a cigarette. We talked about life and I felt so much attracted to her.  2 days before Christmas I had to leave, she gave me a little blue bear and showed me that she had a pink one. I didn't want to leave, but I had too.

So far it sounds like a normal story: you can read the rest of it at my LJ... I would appreciate some helping feedback

Confusion and drifting

I so want to just rant and scream at the top of my lungs. A couple weeks ago now I was feeling things were just not right in my marriage. I would talk with my wife and she was being evasive about texting with a man I thought was quite possibly one of my best friends. So I broke a cardinal rule and I was crushed I didn't react to what I found for a full day or more it's all started to blur of late. I found they had been sexting a lot all day long while I was at work. I confronted my wife about how much it bothered me she wasa doing this with a man who was suppose to be my friend. So fast forward a week I finaly break down and tell my former friend to fuck off and get out of my wife's and my own life. So he texts her and she calls me saying I'm trying to control her life. If you want all the details I've chronicled it in very long rants on my journal. Am I wrong, she says it was just text fun, but he was a friend I was having over each week to hand out with us. She's a stay at home mom with no drivers license (I've tried to get her to get her license but she's terrified of driving). Then yesterday she says she going over to his place to help him pack to move and is shocked and upset that I say i don't want her going over at this point she's going and how I feel doesnt factor. 

Am I being the overly jealous husband? I love my wife and I know she loves me but how should I react?

Uneven sexual experience, long distance

I've been in a happy and committed long distance relationship (first mistake?) since the summer with a girl who I've known for a long time. We got together for two weeks around the holidays and had a great time and lots of sex. On Monday, I am moving to the city where she is. My girlfriend is far more sexually experienced than I am. I've had sex with less than ten different partners, one of whom was a long-term girlfriend who I had sex with frequently for a long time, but was a virgin when we met. I just revealed the degree of my sexual inexperience to my current lover yesterday and now she is concerned that our uneven experience levels will make satisfying sex never work, although she admits that the sex we had was in the top quadrant. She told me she was done 'teaching' people how to do her right. Neither of us have given up on each other by any means, but I'm having a hard time reconciling this difference between us. Sex isn't as important to me as it is to her. I want her to love me for who I am, not because I'm fulfilling a need.

how do I get out of a relationship that I am already in so deep? Anytime I think about breaking up it's like i feel my world is ending I get so sad and I feel like that there is no one perfect in the world so how can I ever be with someone that is.

I can't stand him. My boyfriend is waay to picking at every little thing he can find wrong with me. No one is perfect . If he expects that of me I can't be with someone like that. I feel trapped here living with him and he left the kitchen light on but if i do it i know he gets annoyed.

Hoodwinked

I feel like I have been completely hoodwinked -- I met my husband 5.5 years ago and we have been married for 2.5 years. I recently found out that he has been having an emotional affair. Also just learned that he has been diagnosed with addictive personalities and is possibly a sociopath. I am in shock that this man that I have known and trusted for 5.5 years is not who I thought he was. We are currently completing the steps of our separation. I am devastated that he doesn't want to work things out and that he is so quick to end our marriage. He is full of guilt and anxiety and is a completely different person. Has anyone ever dealt with something like this before?

Help with Getting Over an Unrequited Crush

This is going to sound really childish. I have had a crush on this guy at my university (who I don't really know) for a while. I thought he was nice just from seeing him in passing with his friends. This semester, he is in a seminar with me where we have to do mini-presentations every week. Whenever it is my turn to present, he will stare me down judgementally or snicker while I am answering questions and he gives me dirty looks outside of class as well. I know he obviously does not like me, but I can't seem to stop thinking about him. Any advice for getting over him? Thanks:)

Girls from Netherlands

Hello, dear community.
Here's my little story. I visited Israel this January and saw two girls from Netherlands there in Ovda airport.
I saw them a couple of times: on the day of my arrival and when I flew away back home, on January 1st and 8th respectively.
They looked at me with with some interest. They probably wanted me to approach them and start talking, but I didn't. And I horribly regret it. Because I found them both very interesting (to say the least) either. I cannot stop thinking about it.
Has anybody experienced something like this? What can I do?
