Was at a good wedding yesterday, can't decide what I liked best about it so I thought I'd post a poll.
I agree that a relationship can work. Why is a certificate so necessary for some? IMO, marriage these days has been reduced to "going steady" (and, yes. I'm a tad bitter)
just a tad???? But I disagree on the certificate thing. Seems to me that without a marriage, you're saying "I love you, I want to be with you forever, but I want an escape hatch just in case." But I've never been in your shoes...I suspect I would feel a lot different otherwise.
Oh, the escape clause is already there. It's called a marital dissolution agreement. I'm not saying I wouldn't get married again, either. But I sure as hell won't be the one to suggest it! (BTW, my parent's have been married for 36 years, so I do know it can work. I just feel these days, women and men feel they can break up a marriage as easily as they broke up with someone in high school, only this time, they get to keep "half") Eddie! I want my money! HALF! (oom phu phu b**** from Eddie Murphy's Raw)
For the record, I said escape hatch, not escape clause. My meaning was that the clause implies lawyers and legal action and stuff. A hatch is more like "See ya babe, I'm outta here." My parents would have celebrated their 50th aniversary on June 12th
Sorry about that. But 49 years together is still fantastic. I don't see our age's folks lasting near that long, save for a select few. And there should be an escape hatch in a marriage. I liken it to the one in Spaceballs.
The best part of any wedding is when some fool gets drunk and makes a spectacle of themselves. Could be be Uncle Bob grabbing bridesmade ass, Aunt Jane passed out with her dress up over her girdle, Granny shakin' it to 'We Are Family"or any cousins named Wayne (seems like they all wear mullets). By the way I continue as the Anti-FFB with 31 years of wedded bliss and counting.
It starts and end with the FOOD for me.. I'm not a big drinker, but a beer or 4 is cool also though...
