Couldn't agree more. I'm in a long term committed relationship and we're happy. Why screw it up by getting married? I've been divorced for 12 years, she's never been married. I respect her and she respects me but I don't need her permission or approval to do anything. It astonishes me when guys say stuff like "my wife won't let me..." etc. (By the way, she's a curvy Asian girl who likes to shoot big boy guns) It seems to me that most people who stay married only do so out of habit or fear of change or for the kids etc. When people brag about them or their parents being married for 50 years I always wonder how many of those years were they legitimately happy to be together? Humans, especially males, are not genetically predisposed to mate for life. Marriage is a man-made concept created when the average human life expectancy was about 30. It is an outdated concept. Now, before I get tarred and feathered, whoever here has been married for a long time and is still happy, then congratulations. You beat the odds.
well said! Hate to say Asian women know how to take care of their men.... You're oh so right about what you said. My boyfriend has to say oh my girlfriend is coming with me not cause she's a follower but she enjoys that. I think we just have too much in common when it comes to interest. I was a daddy's girl so I was always doing boy stuff.
To those that have been married for a long time I wasn't meaning everyone was included. It's sad these days you don't see married couples that have been together for 20+ years.
Now this is a cool chick.
If you read my post I didn't say everyone. The newer generation don't put that time in like they should. It's ways to easy for people to get divorce. Congrats by the way for being married for 40 years that's great.
society has changed what we use to hold dear to our hearts when it came to marriage. Now days women want the Fancy expensive wedding and not what come with it.

Women are sometimes a step ahead and you're right she probably knows. Honesty is the best way
Try not to make a promise that either you know you cannot keep or will not keep. Most times nothing is worth the years of "I told you so,or being thrown in your face. Normally when you do the right thing first, life is much better.
Well, I can't dispute that
but my views on my marriage have only improved over the past 23 years.
Marriage is a covenant before God between a man and a woman.
Far to many people today see marriage as a simple contract to be voided at their convinance.
