You remind me of my dad.  You know why he was never able to have a happy marriage?  Because he believed they didn't exist.

every man has to make his own decisions

just make sure you go into it with both eyes open and both feet planted in reality

marriage is utter and complete one sided compromise for a man these days, as long as you make peace with the fact that you will no longer be in control of your own life then it will work out, probably pleasantly for the both of you

if you will not submit to the will of your wife then you will have pain

the things I'm saying are terrible and it really does bother me to say these things but I have to be honest about the realities of marriage in our society today

One sided in not a compromise  If you or your Ex wasn't willing to discuss and "share" decision making that's on you, not the rest of the world.  If things changed over the years for you, I'm sorry.  Now walk it off.

There it is.

A marriage is a one way street with each of you working your side of the lane, heading in the same direction, moving at the same pace.

I've had to grow the most in this regard. I took her for granted, if to a point, for too long. Her love for me is the only reason we made it this long. I can say though the last 10yrs have gotten better because I got my head out of my ass & gave to us as much as she did.

That's not to say I haven't made sacrifices over the years, & she knows it, but the scales were always tipped to my favor on who gave the most to our friendship.

She & I work side by side everyday, each pulling our own weight. Then at night we come home & do the same. It's a day to day existence that I cherish.

Quoted:


 We've been married 20 years and have 3 kids.  How long term do you want?  

If you ever saw us together you'd see stars in our eyes when we look at each other.   I met him when I was 16 and I still get butterflies when he kisses me.  


We are in the same boat.

I was 17, she was 16. I left home to move, 2,500 miles from home, with her 3months after we met. Home & Love is truly where your heart is.

As I eluded to, she is greater than I am. I have had to work up to her to make things work, but I realized one faitful night, I couldn't be without her.

The newlywed shine is long gone but what we do have is solid teamwork. We know exactly what makes the others life better and do it uncompromisingly.

I fell that marriage is about understanding and cooperation, YMMV.

We started on hard times, and things got better, then shitty again. She keeps passing that test, but if ARFcom has taught me anything it's that she's waiting patiently 25 years to ruin my life, steal half of nothing, and is probably already cheating with every male I know.

Hey, Johnny Sunshine, no one believes you either. You're obviously weapons grade bitter and wouldn't know what to do with a decent, loving woman if she suffered head trauma and fell for you.

Most people on here have ex wives because they'd rather choose to go shoot than spend time with their SO.

A lot of people here also have terrible spending habits on firearms and I can see why their SO's left their asses.

This place has awful experience and advice in the subject of relationships.

Put as much effort into your SO's as you do your guns and you'll be just fine
