The best advice is to keep in mind is that to be critical of the partner is the fools way of trying to better the partner ship.

(I dont come up with this stuff myself) I just took notes when someone whos been there and made it work well and said why.

Ain't no business deal here.

:cool: Maybe not for you personally and thats your stuff bro.
But there is legally ,try breaking it, see what happens. ;D

Hardest thing is keeping open about feelings if you can talk them out without negative emotions getting in the way you both got it made.

Also hard to understand, but women quite often dont want your answer to something, they dont wont it fixed immediatley ( They only want to be heard about how they feel about it).

Strange, I know :-\ we just want it fixed right now and that doesnt help, unless its some thing in the house or on the car.

communication, is important when deciding who comes first.
laughter, to keep the relationship alive.
time for each other away from children and other people.
tenderness so you get a free feel without getting arrested or slapped.
common interests, preferably porn.
listen, to them and agree with what they say.
children, brings you closer having them
caring for each other when ill.
time out from each other, if you want to want to watch porn yourself.
make up at end of the day, best bit. ;)

The key to a happy marriage is lots and lots of weed.

Bilbo relax mate, if you got married your sex life wouldnt change. You'd still be having no sex and perving after teenage girls.

Hahahaha! But yeah, it is well known that sex goes down the drain as soon as the bride takes a bit of that wedding cake. But hey, marriage is not all about sex, right? :rolleyes:

If you truly love her, and I mean truly, not loving watching her tits sway back and forth in the doggy position but just her, and are READY to commit it will be the best decision you ever make...although you will occasionally fantasize about murdering her and burying her in the back yard. My sex life is still very active and my children are a true blessing. My wife isn't the best looking woman I was ever with she just happened to be the best woman and that has made all the difference.

This x1,000.

I've been with the same woman for almost a decade (Jesus...) and we've been living together for 4 or 5 years now. Our sex life is great, possibly never better, and the positives massively outweigh the negatives. If you find the right person, it's great.

I like to think that marriage is like finding your favorite beer/wine/liquor....some people try Bud Light and nothing else, they love it and refuse to venture out and try new things. Others like to sample what else is being offered and then settle on a winner. Others have a favorite drink but every now and then feel like trying something new.

The deal is all of these will get you drunk, all will give you a headache, all will get you a hangover, but once you get one you like you'll always want more.

Just my view and of course it works on marital troubles too: some people like drinks that cause them to act like assholes, some people like drinks that always give them hangovers that make them wish they never drank that AGAIN, and some people over indulge in a specific thing and are then never able to enjoy it again (gin or tequila seem to do that).

Just my view.

I thought my new girlfriend might be "the one" but after looking through her knicker drawer and finding a nurse,s outfit a policewomans uniform and a french maids outfit i dumped her cos she obviously cant hold down a job !!!!!!

I really wanted to remarry the woman I divorced years ago, but she said I was only after my money.

Your life can change drastically for numerous reasons, the fact that you are the one conciously deciding to change it means it's probably kinda missing a little something. You can't guarantee anything in this life but you can be sure that stasis leads to stagnation. A lot of single guys say they are afraid of becoming safe and predictable imagining that their own lives are a lot more progressive and less routine than they actually are. I still get a little nervous before a lot of things, it usually means I am excited about taking first steps into the unknown, good luck mate, you'll need it, particularly if she ends up being a Ricky Burns fan:-)
