I guess the yard sale took an unexpected turn for the worst.What did she sell out from under you?
 
Got divorced about 12 years ago. Marriage is not a mistake that I'm likely repeat. On the outside chance it would come up, I'd insist on pre-nups, which would no doubt kill the idea anyway. :givebeer:
 
Got divorced 12 years ago..remarried 10 years ago to a woman who is a true partner in life....all I can say is I wish I had met my current wife first time around! Life would have been so much better. So far we have raised our collective 6 kids, and are working together to build our farm. Some times relationships aren't a bad deal. Just have to use different than the status quo "image" oriented metrics to find the right one. A hard and very expensive lesson. Thank god I learned it.

The last part says it allllllll. I have never been married - don't even have a gfriend.. but am looking to poss. get married.. One of the real issues is everyone - "at least the younger ones" fall into that trap.
 
Been married 29 years now, and we still have a LOT of fun, just like we did when we first met.

I beleive part of our success is that we have some common ground, but both of us have quite a few things that we do that the other isn't really interested in.

I'm into wood cutting/chainsaws, drag racing, raising Min-Pin's, some fishing/hunting. Deb is into gardening, gourmet cooking, shopping, making wine, etc.

We both LOVE travelling together, riding our Road King all over the country, taking the grand kids places, going out to nice dinners, movies, etc.

I fully respect the things she likes to do, and if I end up at a wine tasting, which I don't care all that much about, I make the best of it.

She ends up at a drag race a few times a year, and just sits in her lawn chair and gets some sun, but doesn't complain about the event.

Basically, it's about give and take, having your own time and space, and making the best of the times you are together.

I don't think there is any single human being that you are going to have complete 100 percent compatability with. I also believe that some women are a LOT better than others.

I've watched just about every single one of my friends from high school get married and divorced, some multiple times, and they always seem to have troubled relationships. Marraige isn't easy, it just doesn't happen, you have to work at it like anything else. Women require constant maintenence, and if you don't do it, rest assured someone else is going to do it for you!.....Cliff

There are bad women, there are good women. There are bad men, there are good men.

For those of us not in the know, exactly what is it that brought you to believe women suck?

His wife was having a yard sale today. Last I heard, she wanted him to add a few saws to the sale..... I'm betting that has something to do with it.
