anyone on here actually in a happy marriage?

i'm convinced i just have ugly duckling syndrome. when i grow out of it im gonna pound out your wife while you drag your ass on the carpet in tears
 
yes. they are. stay tuned if you want to vomit, and especially if you want to find out how often digimon bangs his wife.

i was about to red you until i saw the lebanese flag. good shit, i'm going there in 5 days :)

was there back in 1994. saw the beach and drove up in the mountains and played in snow. oh this was during the summer btw. threw snowballs at the taxi driver even and he was cool with it. i think a new yawk taxi driver would of shot me for doing that. cool people, especially towards tourists.

lowlight was falling off a mountain and getting a thorn up my fingernail, spent a couple hours digging that sucker out. oh and the Syrian guys who like to look through your shit for no reason.

yea i was there in '94 also.

it's A LOT different now. for starters, fi kahrabaa. beirut isn't a pile of rubble, and the syrians are gone.

it's actually super nice now. traffic signals, malls, nightlife. lot of americanization - there is even a starbucks and a nike store across from our apt there.
 
if u both can except being in love dies out and develop a great friendship then yes its possible

also cheating is exceptable .. as long as u dont get caught
 
i'm happily married.
I wasn't always though- there were a number of very rough years.

No it is not acceptable at all. people that want to cheat probably shouldn't get married in the first place. And if they get tired of being married they should get a divorce before screwing around.

I'm going down to Lebanon in 11 days...I smell a meetup :D

Everything is different now bro...no more Syrians...beaches, nightlife, parties, the works...
 
I'm your savior Ariel, Jesus has nothing on me!

PM, I'm not even sure what you are talking about?

Still, my parents have been married for 40 years. Seen the ups and downs.

Not easy, especially today. However, it is definitely worth it, if you and the other person are willing to work and get past the self. Rewards are plenty.

she and the kids have been out of town at her parents' since last thursday :(
 
:wavey: 18 years two sunday's ago...best years of my life...and people around here are sick of hearing/seeing/whatever me talk about it, so i'll just leave it at that, m'kay? :)

LOL... It's not like you are kathy lee, spouting on bout cody.
 
will be 5 years this august, i've been happy a good 90% of the time average, sometimes it feels like 20, sometimes like 110, you have ups and downs bro....
 
I can say hands-down that I'm in a happy marriage! I speak from experience, since I had 9 years of a bad relationship with my ex-GF. It's all about communication, and self esteem.

LOL... It's not like you are kathy lee, spouting on bout cody.

no i'm not...and the only reason i even bother getting up on my soap box is so people understand that it IS possible. is it a bed of roses?? no...of course not! does it require effort and sacrifice?? yes...ABSolutely! marriage is no place for selfish people. but, when it's good, it's incredibly synergistic...the power of two people, that truly love each other, working together on common goals, is significantly more than the sum of their parts.

Or, someone else will red you for getting ME started on my messed up circumstance. I too will spare you the details. I will just say that I too was wondering why most people on here won't admit to marriages on the rocks. The reasons: They either..
1) have a happy happy hunky dorey marriage w/ a few ups and downs
or if there is a little issue it's only about SEX (your case)
2) they're single and just havin' fun so marriage crap is not a concern
3) they're single and very optimistic and just know they would never ever cheat and that divorce is just the simple and easy answer to avoid getting to that point of cheating
4) they're divorced and optimistic
5) divorced and skeptical and so far not ready to give marriage a 2nd/3rd/4th try

What you will NOT find here often is anyone ADMITTING to a marriage on the rocks and/or going downhill based on emotional issuses vs only sex. 50% of marriages fail, but you won't hear from those 50%-. Why?
I'm a slow learner, but my theory is b/c as some have pointed out, people just want to CHILL here and have fun.

So, Dr. S is listening....what exactly is your sex problem in your marriage bed? What do you do for your wife to get her in the mood? Let's start there...

you haven't been around here for long, huh?? lots of people hang out their dirty laundry around here and don't seem to hold anything back...i've read a TON of unhappy marriage/relationship stories here.

Im going to go out on a limb and say that people wont post up about their bad marriages because its no ones business, they dont want to risk the spouse finding the posts about it.
As Digi said, of course there are those that have aired it all out, but more often than not I would guess people wouldnt post about something like that. Doesnt seem to be any good that could come from it.
 
and, if you air any dirty laundry here...you'll get tooled on about it until something more entertaining comes along

am i not speaking the truth tho, SD? i mean LOTS of people have described, in fairly intimate detail, their relationship woes here...heck, some of them even had spouses/partners that were members here, which made it REAL uncomfortable...personally, i've been amazed at how candid and unashamed/unembarrassed people around here are, when it comes to matters of the heart (and other tribulations of the human condition).

Yes its true bor. While I was never married I was guilty of airing out my relationship problems and rarely did I get feedback that i didnt already know myself. The net gain was having the indignity of airing out my laundry here or worse, the woman stumbling upon EF and reading all about it, which never ended well.

LOL...so, basically, it was a negative experience for you and you wouldn't recommend it?? :lmao:

how do you feel about soliciting tax advice from someone that you met on a steroid website?? :FRlol:

It wouldnt have been so bad if the women didnt find out about it, otherwise just sort of benign. If people think they can get quality marital advice on a steroid board more power to them. I just think if you have marriage issues its best to actually seek out professional help.
And the tax analogy doesnt really work here because you are an actual tax professional who happened to have been found on a steroid board. If someone looked you up in the phonebook that doesnt make you more able to dispense tax advice than if you are found on EF. Maybe EF has certified marriage counselors at the ready when people post up their marriage problems, you never know ;)
 
lol I think I've put out a ton of shit out here , negative about my marriage.

I NEVER post the positive stuff...BORING!! way more interesting to post about the time I kissed another guy or when DH does not help with the baby

lol haha


acutally another guy kissed me, but whatever

oh...i don't think you can necessarily glean any useful advice from "airing it out" on a website...if anything positive comes from it, it's probably just from catharsis...opening up and admitting that there is a problem, is the first step to rectifying the situation...in fact, you can't even begin to address a problem until you admit that there is one.

and the tax thing?? i wasn't trying to prove a point or draw a comparison...i was just being a smartass :)

how's work??
 
That said, I'm not going to look up the stats, however rates of marriage are decreasing alot. I believe the stats had Europeans marrying less than Americans, however, the rates of marriage are decreasing signifcantly.

I'd look it up, but I don't wanna.
 
even if there was a therapist or marraige counselor they can not/should not give advice based on a ouple of posts from someone, you can only do that by having both side of the stories, we can however give PERSONAL recommendations based on the information at hand....

I agree with Cindy, I sometimes use EF as a vent of when things are bad, rarely when they are good...
 
Okay I lied. I got curious...

This is marriage rates
The U.S. divorce rate is 17.7 per 1,000 married women, down from 22.6 in 1980. The marriage rate is also on a steady decline: a 50% drop since 1970 from 76.5 per 1,000 unmarried women to 39.9, says the report, whose calculations are based on an internationally used measurement.

"Cohabitation is here to stay," says David Popenoe, a Rutgers sociology professor and report co-author. "I don't think it's good news, especially for children," he says. "As society shifts from marriage to cohabitation — which is what's happening — you have an increase in family instability."

Cohabiting couples have twice the breakup rate of married couples, the report's authors say. And in the USA, 40% bring kids into these often-shaky live-in relationships.

"It is important now to think beyond the divorce rate to other kinds of couple unions and look at how stable they are," says Barbara Dafoe Whitehead, a social historian and report co-author.

"It's a pretty short period of time for that change (cohabitation) to have occurred and to have taken hold in the way it has," she says.

In the USA, 8.1% of coupled households are made up of unmarried, heterosexual partners. Although many European countries have higher cohabitation rates, divorce rates in those countries are lower, and more children grow up with both biological parents, even though the parents may not be married, Popenoe says.

The USA has the lowest per but divorce rates.
What is the current divorce rate in America?
It is frequently reported that the divorce rate in America is 50%. This data is not accurately correct, however, it is reasonably close to actual. The Americans for Divorce Reform estimates that "Probably, 40 or possibly even 50 percent of marriages will end in divorce if current trends continue.", which is actually a projection.

"50% of all marriages in the America end in divorce."
The above statement about the divorce rate in America hides all the details about distribution, however.

Age at marriage for those who divorce in America
Age Women Men
Under 20 years old 27.6% 11.7%
20 to 24 years old 36.6% 38.8%
25 to 29 years old 16.4% 22.3%
30 to 34 years old 8.5% 11.6%
35 to 39 years old 5.1% 6.5%

The divorce rate in America for first marriage, vs second or third marriage
50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second and 74% of third marriages end in divorce, according to Jennifer Baker of the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in Springfield, Missouri.

According to enrichment journal on the divorce rate in America:
The divorce rate in America for first marriage is 41%
The divorce rate in America for second marriage is 60%
The divorce rate in America for third marriage is 73%
The divorce rate in America for childless couples and

well according to cindy and nani i must have a good happy marraige since i have no marital drama to enlighten the members of ef with. also helps that my wife hates this site and won't post here. but all in all we have a happy marraige and the kids are happy as weel and really don't go without.
 
i can count to 10...20 if i use my toes...28 if i include my abs :lmao:
LOL look at me I have an 8 pack.... :lmao:

I said that because since I lived abroad I dont know squat about taxes, I dont know if I should save receipts and if so which, I make a low salary... I'll probably just keep everything and go to an accountant that doesnt ass rape me.... or liberty tax/H&B block or something... hell maybe I'll turbo tax :worried: no idea where to begin....

all the 1099 stuff is steady and i really like it theres just not enough volume yet. gonna see about industry certifications or licenses that I missed that could boost business/credentials, thats always a good thing. I think this sort of thing just takes time and experience like anytihng else. Definetely not like punching a clock 8-5 m-f lol.
 
yeah I remember staying in most of Lebanon and the power was out half the day. and in the city it was in the upper 80's and muggy and people were sleeping on their roofs.. a very interesting experience for sure. and the Syrians with their machine guns pointed at you as soon as you get off the plane and having checkpoints. glad those jerkoffs are gone. will have to visit again soon also.
 
so I woke up this morning @ about 4:30 to hear JOhnny leaving for work. He works at the plaza, downtown about 20 minutes away with traffic.

He does not have to be at work until 7.

I thought that was a little strange. :dodgy:

That means he was up @ 4 or 4:15 at the latest

LOL, at me being in the same area as your hubby.
 
You are in town? I cant keep track :D

LOL, yeah... commuting back and forth tween columbia and KC. However, at the Execustay Marriot on Madison. It's really nice, have a friend who is a manager was able to get a good deal.
Be here till late August, then out east.

maybe going to gym/exercise?
or getting an early start on work- maybe he's working extra hard to surprise you with something...
 
Definitely, he's up to something. You don't get up that early for work without a plan.

He'd better be - I'll let you all know on Friday. If I dont get a bday gift, then what do I think of it ? lol. What stores are open at 4 am anyway?

Good point. I mean I get breakfast at the Winstead's, right across from the Tennis Courts, and the walk over there, it's just me, some joggers, and the cleaning crew.

LOL, maybe he's breaking into Halls 4 U... LOL.
 
Mine's good most of the time....although we half-joke about getting a divorce so we will stay together longer......
 
well J still isnt home from work. :dodgy: Workin late.

went in early and working late?

The answer is obvious. Someone else can say it.

lol, don't hate me. :D
 

What I mean amigo is you won't get off! I had a lawyer for my second and it really was a waste of 4k, got hammered with everything! The only thing I had going for me was my BAC.

You got "hammered" because you were starting to show a pattern of poor decision making, decisions that could have life altering affects on you and others. Judges know damn well that someone with their second or third DUI didn't just drink and drive a couple times, they've done it dozens if not hundreds of times.
