Maynard Wrote:Here's the thing. After going through marriage once, I can now point my finger at things I like or dislike in a person. I am comfortable enough with myself now that I can make the decision to be alone instead of being with the wrong person just because they are a warm body.So shouldn't that make you more comfortable with getting married again? Now that you know more of what you want and don't want in a woman, wouldn't you be more sure of your feelings and decision?

I could easily find someone to spend the rest of my life with, but I don't need to be married to them.

I bet lawyers are big fans of marriage.

Quote:Is it really that bad?

...or risk 50% of your assets.

I was thinking about this the other day when I saw a report on some guy who was in a bad car accident and had amnesia from it --he couldn't remember the last 18 years of his life, not his kids or getting married to begin with. Now, if this happened, could you just go on with your "life" that you have no memory of, a spouse you don't even remember meeting? Could you fall in love with that person all over again?
Anyway, I just said "yes" to that big question...but damn am I ever scared!...doesn't it seem like every marriage ends in divorce? Nothing lasts forever...but I guess we're making a go at it and trying...what do I have to lose anyway...we've made it this far together through a ton of shit already
A good friend got married last year, his girlfriend was preggers...after the baby came, she went completely psycho. They were living with her parents up north, which is a huge strain on any relationship to begin with, but he would hang with us after work cuz he worked down here. She thought he was cheating on her, wouldn't tell him what was wrong...just basically told him she never wanted to see him again...so all that time together, was for nothing, she didn't even want to try, even for the sake of the baby
And I wanna get married for what reason again? :lol:

I suppose I want to have the ceremony once just to be beautiful and get all dressed up and have the whole thing..u know..the fairy tale thing. I mean it would be nice. BUT I agree..you don't have to be married to spend your whole life together. I guess if you love someone and you trust them, then words should be enough..I mean words between each other.
- Keyser Soze - 02-19-2002
I read somewhere that 50% of marriages end in divorce. Talk about a coin toss.

Quote:I guess if you love someone and you trust them, then words should be enough..I mean words between each other.Yes, that IS all that matters. If people would realize that the trust between the two people is one of the most important things, then it would be so much easier.
You can get married in front of God, but, he won't keep your marriage together. YOU have to do that.

Well sorry to hear that Maynard. That does blow.
I can honestly say best thing I ever did though.

JIMMYSNUKA Wrote:Well sorry to hear that Maynard. That does blow.One of my best friends was married. He suspected his wife of cheating on him. She denied it. He walked in on her with his best friend. You'd think that would royally fuck someone up. He got remarried 2 years later, and now has a 1 year old daughter and said that getting re-married was the best decision of his life.
I can honestly say best thing I ever did though.
It is great for some. Just not for me. ???

:rotflmao:
Honestly, if my marriage heads into the toilet...I seriously doubt I'd get married again. Couple of reasons...first, been there done that, and secondly, and most importantly, I can't see myself trying to explain to my kids why they have a new "mommy"....their mom will always be their mom, regardless of whether we're still married or not. I would owe my kids at least that.
