Well Leigh it may be overused but it is true none the less.

True. I refuse to "pay to play". I'll save my money to spend on my lady rather than spend it in an effort to find her.

We allowed the media to define them through "inclusion" Then we voted them into public office.

Seriously. I would walk unless there are children. Divorce hurts and affects them far more than it does the married people (I won't say adults). I was there. But once the children were mostly grown and gone, so was she. The marriage ended when I found out about her affair. No trust=no love=no relationship. I do not hate because she's not worth it (try that for an oxymoron)

Marriage is a religious / social institution designed for the stability of raising and rearing children. To teach (or indoctrinate) the offspring into the society insuring the procreation not only of the species but also of the society.
The piece of paper is a government sanction to collect taxes and divide the "spoils" if (and when) it fails.
As far as I'm concerned, when you move in together, you are married in the eyes of God. F the state! As far as legal rights are concerned, grow up people. It is not a battle over possessions. You got together in a spirit of love and compromise, leave the same way. Cut the lawyers and courts out of the divorce process and maybe more couples would stay together.

Sigh! A penis does not think therefore it cannot have an opinion, valid or not. You "think" with what's between your ears. You "feel" with what's between your legs. When you confuse the two you're thinking with your *** and have **** for brains.
Therefore, if the issue is emotional there is no side to take because there is no right or wrong. If the issue is real then reason should prevail regardless of which gender has the most reasonable argument.

Absolutely!!!
both willing to give 100% and it will result in a 50/50 relationship. Because the 50% you are willing to give just may not be the 50% she wants, and the goes in return. Unless you give 100% the relationship is selfish and doomed to disappointment.

PMS is NOT an unexplainable attitude.

If she understands that it really isn't my fault, then I'll love her throughout the attitudinal phase.

Then forget dating site. These are just an outlet for all us out of work comedians. I don't believe any dating or hook-ups happen here at all. Go to a community event or theater and strike up a conversation with a total stranger.

Are left handed (or underhanded) compliments cheep? They have usually cost me more than I wanted.

Try Speaker of the House, he crys at the sound of the gavel ;-)

Rather than threaten to leave, have you tried asking him what the problem is? I had a wife who said no all too often so I just stopped asking. She threatened to leave and I held the door open. If you want to save the relationship ask!

Talk about no pics!

Talk about disparaging remarks!

Possible but often a relationship is a joke. Not that it is funny when you're in one but you should learn to laugh at life.

Then what about this one:

A mortician was working late one night. He examined the body of Mr. Schwartz, about to be cremated, and made a startling discovery. Schwartz had the largest private part he had ever seen!
"I'm sorry Mr. Schwartz," the mortician commented, "I can't allow you to be cremated with such an impressive private part. It must be saved for posterity."
So, he removed it, stuffed it into his briefcase, and took it home. "I have something to show you won't believe," he said to his wife, opening his briefcase.

"My God!" the wife exclaimed, "Schwartz is dead!"

A man walked into a cafe, went to the bar and ordered a beer. "Certainly, Sir , that'll be one cent."
"One Cent?" the man exclaimed.
He glanced at the menu and asked: "How much for a nice juicy steak and a bottle of wine?"
"A nickel," the barman replied.
"A nickel?" exclaimed the man. "Where's the guy who owns this place?"
The bartender replied: "Upstairs, with my wife."
The man asked: "What's he doing upstairs with your wife?"
The bartender replied: "The same thing I'm doing to his business down here."

How would you handle an affair?

Not to be too light hearted about it but this is why I don't buy. If I get it for free then it has more emotional value and I loose less if it fails. ;-)

Is any one serious? We have a series of "one night stands" (why not lays?, that's a different topic) why do you think the divorce rate is so high and the marriage rate is so low?
