What do you HATE about marriage?

[PrepH4U]

I've been married for 15 years... I have found that it's true that marriage has it's good years and it's trying years, but that if you are committed and truly in it for the long haul you will make it through the trying times. The key is to that when you wake up feeling you "don't like that person at the moment" and find that they are plucking your every last nerve, you must never lose respect for them. You must remember there are mornings that they will wake up "not liking you at the moment" and you are plucking their every last nerve as well. It all works out as long as you don't cross a line and disrespect each other.

I have good friends that have been married longer than I have and they all say the best years of marriage come after the children are grown and on their own. They say it's like the honeymoon years all over again, but better.

Yep I see some older people who have been married for years and I just love to watch them. Most are so loving & caring to each other that it just tickles my heart. They act like young love all over again except this time around it is w/the knowledge that they have gained through the years.

Jameo did you need my chili recipe?

Honey, I was married at 21, divorced at 22 and have yet to remarry. I'm just shackin' up with baby daddy #2.

I can't even shack up. You just can't give me a loop hole like that. Everybody will be asking "Where is such and such, he don't stay there no more?" and I will be like "Hell to the nah, I had to let his azz go! He took the covers from me last night".

Needless to say you are stronger/nicer/more patient than I. Thank your parents for showing you how it works.

If ever I get married that man would be a miracle worker. the older I get the less budgiing I am when it comes to permanently sharing my life with another adult. My main thought is, what if I change my mind? Because I do that a lot.

I believe she's implying "married longer than a couple years"...:shrug: Marriage does have it's phases. You've heard of the "7 year itch" and the "mid-life crisis" years... there is some truth to that, but you'd have to survive a marriage for that many years to know what other folks are talking about.

It is cheaper to keep her.:shrug:

I have been married with kid and it only cost me $25 to file for it. I got the house and half of the holdings in it. I didn't even have to buy her out of the house. Just gave it up. Guess I'm lucky.

Or maybe they read somewhere in a magazine or book or saw on tv something about someone being married to someone else. :shrug:

Yeah, but they aren't really saying what they hate about marriage, so it shouldn't matter. That's like me posting in a fat chick thread. I'm not allowed to converse?
