How many of you are married?

I will have one soon, rubeina. I am considered married as we've been living together 10 yrs and in Canada that's a common-law marriage.

For my divorce party I hope to invite all of DP to celebrate with me, or maybe just Shawn or something.

 

You should always be positive going into marriage and try your very best. If it doesn't work out ... fine. But at least try. Many of us have grown up in a disfunctional household and don't really know how to live in harmony with someone else - but that doesn't mean it can't happen. Like I've said, I believe in marriage, love committment, all of that. Just for me it hasn't worked out ... yet.

 

I knew that would happen reading thru this thread. That's why I'm saying: go for it and make your own experiences. If all fails, you can always come back to DP to complain about how marriage sucks I think Amit's post is right on. No clue how he became so smart at age 21.

 

Seriously reading peoples negative experiences on an internet forum would cause you to review your thoughts?

I still & always believe in marriage. Everybodies situation is different, yanno. I truely believe you CAN be happily married forever if you put in the effort and commitment.

I also believe in love at first sight though, so I am just a big soppy romantic twat.

 

I think part of the secret to success is to set a few rules for yourselves. For example, my wife and I have had many fights. They were never anything serious, and mostly just a little venting and stress release. But, if you set some bounderies, then having an occasional fight or dissagreement is perfectly fine. A couple of examples of what I am talking about would be never resorting to any type of namecalling, and we have never gone to sleep angry at each other.

 

Fuck, I'm remembering the last days of my marriage now. Shit ... take SiteExpress's advice, guys ... seriously. If you don't work on it, you can make each others miserable and not even know it ... it's a two way street. I've been a shitty husband, but until about a year ago, I didn't think I was ...

(the more time goes by, the less mad I am at my wife and the more I see how shitty I was. I think it's the 8 relationship trainwrecks after my marriage that have taught me that there was a pattern ... oh, that and watching Dr. Phil )

 

I dont see any digital point in this thread, why is it around for so long?
Stress busting? or what?

 

Wonder what DR. Phil would say about your potty mouth.(no pun intend)

 

He'd tell me that it's therapeutic to express my frustration in my own way

 

I was married in what it seems like a past life for 6.5 yrs. I'm the type that don't need a man to make me whole. But wouldn't mind finding a man to have fun with,thou.

 

NEWSFLASH: I'm married!!!! I'm married to my iMac!!! Unfortunately we get divorced about every four years!!! One marriage lasted less than a year!!! My second ex-wife should be in a nursing home. With in a year or two, I might get divorced again, for the forth time!!!! pze give me marriage advice...fast!!!!

 

How is your sex life with your Mac?

 

Oh no you didn't

 

Yes, never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight.

 

Even though i dont believe in love at first sight I think the whole point in life is to get married and live with that person you love. Of course it can be argued by those who enjoy being single, nothing wrong with that i guess.

 

LOL Mella. We've done that too!

 

The whole point in life is to get married?

LOL....

 

Ya, to share your life with someone special. Sorry if i expressed myself wrong, it is for me.

Or perhaps i say this because i already got the love of my life <3 ;p
