LOL!
But at the same time, when you are in the relationship it is often hard to see the danger signs.
I have had a few friends tell me “Don’t be stupid” when I was dating. Glad they did. In the end, it is each person’s choice, but outside opinions are often a good thing.
My ex-wife-(who is taking half my paycheck each week and complaining that it is not enough) is currently with a guy his 40’s and he is successful.
My ex keeps saying, “Look how successful and rich he is!”
Yeah, that's because he has never been married, you freakin’ fool! He knows what he's doing. You're taking half my income and then comparing me to him? What part of You're an Idiot do you not understand.
He has been ‘dating’ (if that is what you want to call it) her for a year and a half and has never said the ‘L’ word and has never indicated in any way that he is thinking about marriage. And yet she fawns and drools over him constantly.
You know, I don't really like the idea that he is banging my wife, but at the same time I respect what he is doing. She is an idiot, and thinks he is going to ‘propose’ every time she sees him. The guy has the game down pat. Imagine being stuck in perpetual ‘dating’ mode. Every man's dream.
He is smarter than me, that's for sure. I would be so much better off today if I had never married. That guy is the guy I could have been without marriage. Just needed a couple of more brain cells, I guess. It was stupid to get married.
But yeah, the way American Law is set up today, marriage is a life-killer. The woman will have your balls mounted on a trophy, while she looks for the next.
Really, Why buy the cow?
Unfortunately, Kate wouldn’t marry me.
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
These deep thinkers are ignoring the simplicity of what happens, especially here in meth country: low-lifes live together to pool their welfare checks. Marriage would be a penalty for them and their offspring’s bennies. It’s not exactly a philosophical decision!
———I think we have to make our own rules. I don’t think we should live our lives in relationships based off old traditions that don’t suit our world any longer.”-——
There is no better statement of liberalism. Boiled down, it throws out tens of thousands of years of accumulated human wisdom be it Christian, Jewish, Moslem of Buddastist.
The final word is the woman is the personification of evil.
And if we glue some turkey feathers on the unicorn, he'll be able to fly!
When a man and a woman have sexual intercourse, it's not long before "children are involved" ... children who are then either born in the shack-up/unshack relationship, or are aborted.
How, after 40 years of sex education, have we ended up with a population - irrespective of their age or level of schooling - that is apparently totally ignorant of the fact that sex makes babies? Elementary-school children are taught about personal behavior that would make ancient Romans vomit, but adult women with college degrees are shocked, SHOCKED! when they "fall pregnant." For example:

“children living with their mother and her boyfriend are about 11 times more likely to be sexually, physically, or emotionally abused than children living with their married biological parents.”
Well yeah. You’re more likely to hook up with a jerk when bailing out is an implied option. When you’re going to look that person in the face and say “I do” you’re more likely to consider whether you really want to spend your life with this person.
Thank you. Sometimes I get the “live” link, and sometimes I just get the address, and I don’t know why.
Oh, I agree, and in the multitude of counsellors, there is safety.
My main concern is just when grandparents refuse to let their kids raise their own kids. When kids have four or six people giving them often contradictory direction, that’ll confuse a kid like nothing else.
My wife and mine’s parents are both pretty good about it (though they also both live at least 500 miles away). There have a been a few times where I’ve had to (gently) tell my own mother how it is when she’s tried to interfere with our disciplining our son.
Oops - my sense of humor failed to appear to some!
While it’s true I did say to the daughters and sons-in-law that I would be picking their son’s wives, it was because I was insinuating there would be no ‘perfect’ female for our grandsons, of course, therefore I would need to do the choosing because I would be older and wiser than they!
After having 4 daughters and no sons, these 5 grandsons-in-a-row was hilarious, and very precious! (The 6th came afer some granddaughters).
Therefore, I was moved to make the humorous declaration, and I intended to sound ‘bossy!’
I’ll be happy to be alive when they start marrying - the oldest is 23 - - - I would like to dance at their weddings. : )
As an aside, we have never lived near OUR families (USA states separating) after marriage. Can only wonder how that would have gone. Looking back, we kind of robbed some of them of their bonding with our kids....
But 3 of our daughters live near us.
We in no way intrude, but/and do babysitting for the youngest g-kids. And do holidays, etc. together. We’re all rather civil!
Try spell check. If that doesn’t work then go with the href.

Aha! Thank you.
“When a man and a woman have sexual intercourse, it’s not long before “children are involved” .”
Yes, and I’d say this happens at least as often if not more when the couple isn’t “shacked up”, and has little to do with my post.
Unicorns aside, my comment stands on the issue of living together before marriage....”if there are no children involved, and the couple is in their 20’s or older, I don’t have a problem with living together before marriage”
I think we’re failing to communicate, but life is like that.
Believe me, I know. One of the reasons I live where I do is that my mother would have meddled in my marriage to much if we lived within driving distance. I feel bad for my child, in that she will not have the same family experience I did growing up, but it is better in the end.
Ms Diaz is a product of and advocate for the slut culture. She used to be fairly hot but seems to be aging very rapidly. She is on the Maureen Dowd track and in a few years can look forward to living a bitter loveless life, getting shagged by gigolos out for her money.
