Getting married next month..

[pissclams]

yup, being married sounds like a loser-to-loser business relationship.  makes no sense to give up the freedom to do whatever you want, whenever you want.  dumbasses.

Having kids is twice as stupid. You are nearly guaranteed to experience a significant decline in these three things:

• Freedom
• Money
• Sex

Why so many damn people have kids is beyond me.

I wish your parents had taken your advice

I agree with the being married is great crowd. 

And the secret to avoiding the "you don't pay enough attention to me kick" is to pay some attention. A good wife (mine is the best) will realize some guy time is good for you, but that doesn't give you a right to be a selfish prick.  And remember marriage isn't about the crap in movies, sometimes it is work.  But in the end if you and your wife can meet in the middle on most things those times are infrequent and it will make for a good life for both of you.

JMHO.

You are giving all woman kind too much credit.  While your wife sounds wonderful with this meet in the middle BS.  Mine does not know where the middle is located.  I gave up golf, watching some KSU games I almost had to miss the Butler game, and in hind site would not have been that bad, because she had to have a birth day that same day.  Then I get labeled as the jerk because I say I would like to watch the game (and I did at the pump house, thanks trim!).  All in all my wife isn't that bad but it's not all roses and movie romance that she thought it would be.

That was your wife's birthday? 

[PoetWarrior]

Do not live with a potential spouse without marriage.

Do not get married if you are less than 100% certain that you will be content with your spouse for the remainder of your earthly life.

The path to the second part is through the first part

Or, you could spend a lot of time with one another and return to your separate quarters at the end of the day.

No, doesn't get remotely close to the same experience.  There is only one way to be sure.  Only ONE.

I think the only way to be sure is raising a child together before you get married. If it doesn't work out, you screwed up your kid's life. But hey, at least it's not yours, right?

just remember, poet warrior...what would jesus do?

[Dirty Sanchez]

Don't drop the ring (did this, but it was her fault)

[PoetWarrior]

Should clarify that a man living with a woman who is a potential spouse isn't necessarily a problem (perhaps).

It's the implied physical contact that's the problem.

So whether or not you live together isn't the, whole, issue (possibly).

Just don't touch each other.

My personal God is ok with pre-marital sex so I think there may be three options total

True marriege type story relative to living together:

Got married in a Catholic church (the one next to the alumni center).  We did the pre-marriage catholic class deal with a priest in Omaha where we had to go meet with him once a week for, like, 6 weeks.  Anyway, here is a convo. we had as I remember it:

priest:  Where do each of you live?
me: together in an apartment on Blondo Street
priest:  I discourage you from living together prior to marriage.  I challenge you to get seperate residences.
me: not happening padre
priest:  why not?
me: seems like too much hassle.  we're going to live together in 4 months so getting another lease that short would be senseless.
priest: the church looks down on living together prior to marriage
me: yeah, got it, can we still get married?
mrs. dave:  
priest: well, I suppose
me:  awesome, high five (raises hand for high five)
priest: (looks confused for a second but then smirks and returns high five)
mrs. dave:

Very well played Steve Dave.  I commend you for using restraint on telling him how Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) he is.  That must have been tough.  I probably wouldn't have taken him serious when he brought up getting a separate apartment.

we had to meet with a guy too. i was told to lie about the fact that we were living together. i was like "really? you want me to lie to the god guy about something? it seems like that's the last thing i should be doing. whatever though."
