Hey Pimp, haven't checked in on the thread in a while. Hang in there. Nothing about tomorrow is dictated by the past. Make it the best day you can for you.

Happy New Year, Bro!

This is a great argument. But, I have a buddy that was raised this way. No living with. Only after marriage. Both his marriages failed after a year each. This last time, he went against these ideals and seems much happier.

I know it's only one example, and I sure there are examples of it contradicting this.

I do however think you are right about the length. 5 years is too long.

Havent checked back in awhile.

We lived together for so long before marriage for a few different reasons. We were engaged the better part of that time. The first instance was our child. That pushed marriage back due to financial reasons. The second reason was that we had a chance to buy a home. We felt it was too good of an opportunity to pass up, and the marriage was pushed back again. So both times were mostly just financial reasons.

Married twice, divorced twice. First time lasted 7+yrs, second less than a year. On the second I should have realized that when we married on Halloween it would be a nightmare. Currently am dating same lady for 13+yrs.

Why Married Women Stray

The following devotional is from a Christian Counselor and personal friend who shares what the Bible says about who is responsible when the wife strays. The woman is responsible to God for the sin and choice she made. She will also have to live with the consequences of her actions (STDs, emotional pain, loss of trust, etc.). But if the husband was all that he should have been then she would never have strayed in the first place.

There are references in the Bible that clearly show that the responsibility falls on the husband when the wife cheats yet it doesn't take away from her guilt or her choice to stray. On the other hand the Bible does not say the wife is responsible in any way for the husband straying.

Let's look at what the scripture says:


Hosea 4:14 "I will not punish your daughters when they commit harlotry, Nor your brides when they commit adultery;
For the men themselves go apart with harlots,
And offer sacrifices with a ritual harlot.
People who do not understand will be trampled".

Nice article. Now I see it was all my fault that I lost my wife and thus my family. It's like a cherry on top of a **** Sundae.

Hoping that's a sarcastic response...

Takes two in the boat to get it where it is.

Who to blame is not the question. The question is actually what to blame.

When I went through my divorce, I asked that very question. Thing is, you could name a lot of different things, but the only constant is that the other person just gives up. It's the sad reality of it all, but once I realized that she had given up, and that I need to take my life back over, everything got better. I told myself to move on, and stop holding on to someone who has already let go.

I'm now married to an awesome woman, and she's a UT fan, my previous wife didn't even like sports. Sometimes its a blessing to have a mulligan, even though that's hard to hear.

that's a fact, as long as both want to work it out, it's salvageable, but if one gives up, it's all over

Worst part is she quit before I knew it. It wasn't like we both sat down and discussed it. She made her decision, then informed me. My salvage efforts fell on deaf ears.

Which would indicate my marriage was over before I knew. Who really knows how long ago she had checked out? All I do know is my wife is gone.

As far as re-marriage goes, it wiill be decades before I trust another person with my heart. Likely never. That is too much power to give someone. Other people are not very good caretakers of your heart. My wife destroyed mine.
