YES. I hear the weird voice. And it drives me completely farking nuts. Like a dull, pretentious drone. Seriously. Get rid of the frickin' italics. Please.
Good luck to you. About a year ago I thought about getting hitched to a woman that I had been dating before and who I had known since we were both teenagers. It didn't work out for me so I wish you the best of luck. As for the italics, I'm with the other posters those gotta go.
I see the content of the message past the word font. People really don't change. You'll both talk it over. Then she or you will do good for while, then revert on back. Thats not cynicism, thats millions of years of past human history supporting the opinion If you're gonna go through with it of course the most important thing is either work a pre-nup or get as much post-marriage matters in your favor as you can. I'll get ragged on for it, but its not worth losing half your stuff taking a chance on anything, even if its on "love". In her mind she'll think you're now contractually obligated to put up with her crap, or if not you're in breach and will take your stuff. Hows that sound? Eh whatever,you came to the board this is what you get. But marriage is what people do anyway right? There's a study that shows men that have a nagging wife live longer than an unmarried man, so maybe there's something to it
This is my advice... Don't ask other people if you should marry someone!!! You know the answer already. relationship advice (not marriage advice) = My husband and I used to fight a lot, because I was a super B before we got married. Honestly I don't see why he married me. Now i'm just a semi-B. The bickering can get better as you both mature. Also, no girl is ever going to be drama free. There will always be fighting to some extent.
Get back together but look for couples counseling before considering marriage. If you don't even consider that simple advice, best of luck gambling on marriage. Heck, other couples have done far worse things... He's thinking his thoughts to us like that boy from Wonder Years.
You guys don't sound like you're very compatible or near ready for marriage. How about date for a year without major problems before proposing?
Yeah, keep italicizing if you like. You've got style. Don't let them pester it out of you... LoveAndRespect.com
I don't mind some of the fighting becasue somtimes its great for make up sex, but to fight over something thats not worth it is where we went wrong. Like one time we got into an argument becasue I didn't know the different between a flat iron and a straightening comb.
Think about this for a minute. You guys are broken up and the first thing that pops into your mind is marriage? If you're dead set on getting back together, at least go on another trial run before you decide that marriage is the the thing you really want with this chick.
I have a great joke. Tell her this whenever you get into an argument. Q: If your wife keeps coming out of the kitchen to nag at you, what have you done wrong? A: Made her chain too long.
So do you think we should just try to start over? Or pick up where we left off in the relationship? The reason I was thinking about marriage is becasue if we do get back together I see that I want to be with her forever.
Well you wouldn't technically be starting over if you get back together as y'all have a definite history. Pick back up with the relationship and see if both of you can change in terms of the arguing over the little things all the time. Explain the thing about the marriage deal too. Tell her it's not that you don't want to spend the rest of your life with her, but you want to do it when you're comfortable with it. Throw in a line that if you care about me at all, you'd understand perhaps. Not really, don't do that. But explain it in guilt-free terms. How long were y'all going out for?
