[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why the hell would you do this?

Marriage is hard enough .

Don't make it harder on yourself.[/quote]

But you don't KNOW that starting out. I had no idea marriage would be difficult. Who comes to marriage thinking it will be difficult??[/quote]

Perhaps your ideas of marriage shouldn't have come from Disney and Harlequin romances. Any married couple you ask will tell you marriage is hard and it takes work. [/quote]

No. My idea of marriage came from my parents. And I didn't see the "hard work" they were doing. Nobody actually tells you what is "hard" about it nor what the actual "work" part of that hard work is.  ... do they say you are going to start to hate your husband or wife or there is a 40% chance one of you will have an affair or you might have fertility issues and not be able to have children Or that one of you will lose your job in the downturn and you'll be on the edge of fiscal ruin and you'll lose your house? No. They don't. Nor do they say how that is going to affect you (because they don't know). We've had a LOT of issue that might break other couples but they made us closer. We've also had issues that might be no brainers for other couples, but they have made us struggle. And exactly what this "hard work" is I don't even still fucking know! What is the work I'm doing?????? I did NOT start marriage thinking it would be difficult. And it WASN'T. Until way way later. And I can't define the work I'm doing or what is so hard about it ... don't give me that crap that when you are 24 you understand marriage will be difficult. No. No. No. NO.[/quote]

Getting married at 24 would automatically make marriage hard. You don't have a pot to piss in at that age.[/quote]
