    I dunno, I think part of mulling a lifetime commitment should be, "do I have any inkling that we should have a signed contingency for the failure of our marriage?" If you think you need that, you probably shouldn't marry that person.

    And there's that. Dooley is absolutely right. I just didn't have the pendament to say it/cross-threading

    schieza,

    Don't be so defensive. My first love got married after dating a woman for four years and living with her for three. They were getting divorced eight months after getting married. He said something one time, and it stuck with me. No matter how much you think getting married will be a continuation of the life you've started and built with each other, it's that much the opposite. He doesn't know how it changes, it just does.

    And being married to you has to be worse than most. :D

    I'm not trying to be defensive. I'm just saying that what seems to be working for us is working for us, you know?

    And, IJAG, you may not believe this but in the real world I'm actually a sweet and kind person. But don't tell anyone, I don't wanna ruin my rep. :)

    Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and not believe that. Thanks, though.

    As marriage approaches, no one in the history of the world thinks they're going to get divorced. That's what makes it so hard. The whole point of being in love and getting married is that you think you're going to spend your life with that person. And I don't care how much a divorced seems inevitable in hindsight, if it happens (and I wouldn't wish this on anyone), you'll be blinsided. Hope it works out for you, schiez, I really do. Even the most amicable divorce sucks. It's nothing like just breaking up.

    Why am I thinking IJAG isn't the only one who won't believe you?

    Her friend is right, though. No matter how long you have been together, getting married does change things, but it is very hard to explain how it changes.

    I totally agree too. I think that if you really want to be with someone, whole-heartedly, it involves love, trust and faith.....otherwise, what's the point?

    I hope Nick Punto shares your thought process, ESPECIALLY when he divorces his current wife for me.

    I will cross my fingers for you, and I eagerly await the wedding invitation. :)

    Well, if your mistress is worth spending a million a year on, you should marry her:

    Guys with money will do anything to dump their wives for youth...

    They don't even care if they are pretty... this chick has a look only her dad would say is beautiful.

    But she's young, so that's good enough for a few decades with Mr. Nantz, until he trades her in 2026.
