DanvillRob Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I really wouldnt care if she did' date=' she's actually NOT my "better half" anyways [biggrin'] people grow in different ways, she and I just happen to NOT go in the same direction, which Id say happens with a majority of marriages these days, dont know the failure rate but I do know its OVER 50%, its actually a National average of 55% of all marriages fail That's too bad... you only live once...and then you're dead for a REALLY long time.... since this ain't a dressed rehearsal, you should be happy...whatever that means.... and so should your wife. Life is too short to "settle"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAstaire Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 12. Having to buy feminine supplies at the grocery store with your neighbors watching is not a myth. It will happen. This won't happen to me....she's tried and i offer to drive her to the store....she knows better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artie Owl Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Thanks everyone, yeah we're living together, it's one year since we moved in together and that was my last test to make sure we are the real deal, which we are :- I'll take any advice I can get haha, but I know one thing for sure, Marriage isn't all rainbows and butterflies, you have to ride the wave.

milod Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I always figured that the purchase of feminine "supplies" was only part of the "how you can tell some guy has learned to be comfortable around women." The other, and longer lasting one is holding a girl's purse while she's doing whatever... Oh - and btw... best of luck in a tie-up in today's world... m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, the purse. The looks and the purse. And the time spent holding the purse. And the locations she picks for you to hold the purse. And the different purses, times and locations. It is all coming back to me. You know, that is why you have kids. You send them to the grocery store for women thangs and they get to hold the purse. It is your only way out.

milod Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Mr. Natural... Yeah, I like that commercial too. ..... As for having kids... maybe when I grow up. However, at my age that's decreasingly likely. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retrosurfer1959 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Congrats she's a cutie and don't sweat the little stuff so what if she ask's you to buy feminine products or hold a purse when she's shopping or whatever. Who cares more than half the people on earth are female and understand what your doing and will think more of you for it and if someone like a male friend or not, makes fun of you for buying tampons you really got to wonder what there doing with them that embarrasses them so much.

Artie Owl Posted May 25, 2010 Author Share Posted May 25, 2010 No date yet, we're just enjoying the feeling right now. I've wanted this for a long time, and I'm as ready as I'll ever be. I find the occasional "don't do it" funny compared to the number of congrats and such, but to each their own I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swleary Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Congratulations to the both of you. Now when the big day comes, and you both are looking at gifts for one another...Nothing says "I love you" more than a new Gibson..just sayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Owl Posted May 25, 2010 Author Share Posted May 25, 2010 Haha we were talking about that, traditions and such and why we do them. I was saying if she wanted to get me a new Marshall 50 that would be the equivalent of an engagement ring for me. So far no dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
