Marriage.....The death of hope

Hi girls
I just got another call from Mini,The Warden with more orders of stuff I have to do for her. It got me thinking.

I was at a party recently and there was young couple recently engaged and they were talking about all the planning and preparation for "Their Special Day". The wedding.

I'm not one to be a party pooper but I wanted say"Cut your freakin' leg off with a chain saw. It will be less painful in the long run and a lot cheaper."

Men and women are not meant to stay together for the rest of their lives. There's no getting around that fact. Get a grip. The little quirks and cutesy things your partner does when dating will be like fingernails on a chalkboard a few years later.

Then you both get this bright idea"Why don't we have some kids! That will be fun!" Yeah. Great freakin'' idea you morons! Having kids accelerates the feelings of contempt and loathing for each other and the little brats bankrupt you and push you right to the brink of first degree murder. Take it from me. It's not a great plan. If you want kids adopt a 42 year old investment banker so they can take care of you. Your real kids will only toss you in a nursing home at the first sign of trouble and take all your stuff.

Then there is the sex. That is even more fun. After 25 years my wife said"I'm feeling romantic honey." I replied"Sorry,I have to powerwash the deck." You'll get there! Trust me on that one! Who can eat the same lunch for 25 years? It's not in the cards people.

If you're looking for love,companionship and loyalty get a freakin' dog. Humans will always turn on you. They're just no good. If your pet acts up you have it put to sleep and get a new one. No problemo and no jail time. Sweet!

Love

Auntie Jeannie

Doctor SL's Advice: Take 2 Xanax, with plain water (no mixing with alcohol

) . . . I'd say give me a call in the morning, but I have to work, so you can call me on Saturday morning instead!

I feel you're onto something.

Nevertheless, I'm psuedo-engaged to my best friend since high school. If neither of us are married by the time we're 30, we're getting hitched. Most likely in Vegas at around 3 am.

It's the longest relationship I've ever had with a woman and I feel that it's just crazy enough to work. I look forward to turning her down because I need to wash the deck, to be honest.

It will all make for some very good fiction some day. I'm an opportunist.

Hi Jeannie,

I call it: living apart together.

It works. My SO (Paula) and I have been "an item" for 8 years now. We have our separate homes - about 10 minutes apart. We sometimes park overnight at mine or hers. We travel together, and have most dinners together (except when one or the other "wants to be alone"). We manage our homes according to our individual tastes. We are truly in love with each other. We have our separate outside interests and hobbies, although many social occasions find us together. There is no talk or need for "marriage".

What is more, she completely accepts and cooperates with my crossdressing.

Happy hugs - and a happy holiday to all !!

Ah but Jeannie I remember the post where you said you love to bitch about your family but love them a great deal in spite of your complaints.

Marriage after 22 years is certainly not like dating was, and the kids are a pain in the backside. But I too love them dearly. I'm really looking forward to the day when the 15 year old regains the power of speech. Although that's not really fair. She's been practicing talking to me by pointing out all my inadequacys.

Jeannie my love,

I am sorry your life is so messed up as it takes two to make a marriage. I have been with my wife 45 years, 4 kids, 3 new homes but we pull together.

I think for Jeannie it is more married singles. They may be married, but for the most part they have separate lives. They only cross when kids are involved or Mini needs something.

Jeannie,

It took 3 marriages and 55 years to figure it out. Fortunately I got some really good kids out of it. They have standing orders to shoot me where I stand if they ever hear me say the M word. And I just know they are waiting to see who gets to shoot first

This here, alone, is proof that Jeannie NEEDS her own syndicated talk show. There'll be none of this "Who's the makeover hottie daddy in search of out of control teens that need a fitness trainer' crap, on it either, nosirree.
