Dear Patsmart readers: My wife found out I was cheating & said nothing. Should I be worried?

From a male Patsmart reader
My wife found out about two weeks ago that I'm having an affair but has not said a word about it to me. She knows I know that she knows that I have a girlfriend but she's refused to confront me about it. Should I be scared or its nothing to worry about? What worries me about this is that she's a very confrontational person, I wonder why she decided not to address this.

"She's not that girly" Kim K says daughter prefers boyish clothes

Kim Kardashian says her 16 months old daughter North West has developed her own unique style and prefers the masculine, boyish clothes to girly, pink dresses. Kim explains;
"She's not that girly, I don't really like pinks and your typical girly colours. I like a neutral palette for her and with Kayne the same. I'm not big on loud or over the top colours. I love when she wears greens and reds and blush, just different colours of blue and creams. She doesn't like pink or purple. She likes greys, creams, oatmeal colours and black,' she told Lucky magazine.
"Every once in awhile she'll add in some colour, like with her little red Air Yeezys, but other than that she likes to keep it pretty simple.'
Is it that she prefers it or that's what they put on her? Can a 1 year old have their own sense of style?
