Too broke to get a divorce?

People generally do not change, it is our inability to see the real person that changes.

There is a reason for saying "love is blind".

Love is blind cuz you looking at it with yo peter.
 
I guess we all want it to work and dismiss all the flaws that later become so visible and in the end make people go their separate ways.

True, but that 's not the point.
If ppl would approach marriage more seriously and with (oh, my!) "responsibility" I'm quite sure the divorce rate would drop significantly.
 
Quote from bwolinsky:

Yeah....um, let's actually try to examine "stone age" genes.

I'll start with, how many years did it take to go from neodrathal to modern humans? Try a good 50 million years. By 10 million BC we had modern humans. So, we can expect some quantum leap in human intelligence in 40 million AD if we're still around.

Anyway, not that I'll be around to see that, but, just in case, I wouldn't hold my breath for stone age genes to go away.

Uhm, recognizably modern humans appeared about 100,000 years ago. Truly modern man has been around only 10,000 years.

50 million years, LOL.

LOL, I agree with everything you've said ... and the thing is, we can't stop it.

We can only be aware of when it is happening and try to cotrol it (try being the operative word here). :D
 
Quote from ByLoSellHi:

Yep.


The only thing I'll add is that DO NOT HAVE KIDS until you are as sure as reasonably possible that you love your spouse, or at the least, think they'll make a great parent.

Children change the entire equation.

And if you happen to love your spouse AND they're a fantastic parent, consider yourself extremely fortunate and never take it for granted.

Why not take it a step further and don't even get married until you're sure about these things?

And, make sure that the two of you agree on if you'll have kids, how many, where you'll live, make sure your careers are somewhat compatible, etc.

I'm always amazed at people who find all these problems *after* they're married.
 
My paternal grandparents were married for 50 years.

My parents were married for 16 years.

I managed to stay married for 2 years.

Gee that's funny. And all this time I thought the universe was only 5000 years old! :D
