    Love is having to say you're sorry...every five minutes.


    Every part of a relationship is about compromise.
    If only one person is willing to bend then there is a problem.
    If neither are willing to bend...

    Oh hell yeah !! That's probably the truest statement in this thread dude.


    Being in a relationship, particularly when living together, requires nothing BUT compromise. You're not really going to be able to do anything your way 100%. And if you can't deal with that FUGGETABOUTIT !! If you're the type of person who is set in there ways there are going to be a whole lot of problems.





    FEAR IS THE OLDEST TOOL OF POWER. IF WE ARE DISTRACTED BY THE FEAR OF THOSE AROUND US THEN IT KEEPS US FROM SEEING THE ACTIONS OF THOSE ABOVE US.

    From my experience, I would dispute that and instead say the exact opposite "You shouldn't really get married unless you first live together as a couple for a while in order to assess your compatibility"

    I know that this is against the ideals of some religions, but I would rather do this than find out later that the person I married is not who I thought she was.

    As I've said, Mike. Again, people are talking about things that I've said. Why? Do y'all forget how insane I am? What, do I have to start talking like cartoon musicians again? Anyway, why would you have marital problems if you didn't live together first? Seems to me you should just spend lots of time with your significant other until you know all you feel you need to about them and be able to have the maturity necessary to take off from there. How expensive is a non-fancy wedding these days?

    Not a bad idea, there's no substitute for living together though. You'll REALLY find out what the other person is like & any potential compatibility problems when you share a roof.

    It's not the wedding that will cost you, it's the divorce...
