Why not?

Well if it is my daughter had a heck of a remnant at hers

I don't agree with marriage not helping the poor. I actually came out ahead financially in my divorce. (She gave me half of her money.)

Why bother getting married? Just find yourself some woman you don't like and give her a house. Done deal.

Because the doctor said your blood pressure is low

Because we are all sub-clinically mentally ill and insecure. What other reason would there be? Let's see Golddigger... no I think insecure covers it. Yes we get caught up in our emotions, but really do you need to pay more than half of your assets if it doesn't work out? Think about it, it is arcane when women needed men financially.

marrage is like drugs ....It will mess you up ...So y even do it

Marriage is a sacred committment in the eyes of God. It is a holy vow that can never be broken. Till death do us part

at least that is what I told my first three wives

are they in the cemetary

Sounds like you're a bill hicks fan too. He died way before his time.

I've been wondering that myself lately. To me, marriage has been an integral part of making a family of my own. My own path may or may not include getting married again, but adoption seems the easier softer way even with lawyer expenses, and does not include the word that instills fear into any man. Half.

Its only scary for the one who makes considerably more in the relationship, male or female.

I learned a long time ago, no one makes out in divorce except the lawyers.

I used to be against divorce (for myself) for religious, cultural, societal, and family reasons. Today, I'm against it for other reasons....mainly the lawyers and the loss promoted in the family at the expense of those already hurting and/or innocent.

In other words, even though there are no guarantees, next time, the choice has to be someone exceptional who feels the same way and has many values/ideals/goals in common with me. Someone who is willing to be real and communicate. Words are not enough. They must demonstrate they can meet the expectations I have for an appropriate partner before I take that step again. I intend to marry again, but I do not expect it anymore. No one can predict the future. Its what we do in this moment that will manifest what path we take....and what choices we make along that path in the future.

there ya go.

I guess I would have to follow it up by the question of... Why get divorced? Sad of me to think of it like that. I don't feel as spiritualy fit today. Although I would like to believe that two people can be patient enough to wait and get to know who each other is, before settling or plunging for someone who isn't right for them, because of loneliness. Or you know... If 2 people get married than they should know what commitment really is.

good point

because I want to see him in a tiara too!!!

Y for dining nightly together of course!

I think of it as rectifying a huge mistake. Why hit yourself in the head with a hammer over and over when you have the option to stop?
