Hey war eagle,
Your obviously a gambler, would you take a 50/50 shot?
Dont even mention divorce.
My advice is when it gets rocky, dont give up
you got together cause you love each other,
NEVER let divorce be an option
12 years of marriage and A TON of rocky times speaking here.
PS still think Tech should of beat em in the Sugar (haha)
Good luck

Woodson,
Worked with a guy at Buffalo Connection named Jay that was a Lambda Chi I think in 98 or so. Does that ring any bells?

I hope you are as happy as me and my lovely bride of 30 something years. As for advice....I dunno. Hope you marry someone who is willing to let a lot of things slide. You both will have to do that. And never try to do or say something that will hurt her. When you are in the middle of some big battle try to remember she is the person you love and who loves you.
Yeah, Jay Abitista or Jay Lee.... Jay Lee's dad owned the place... that and Buffulo Rock Pepsi...
Thanks StevieD. That sounds like good advice... I've heard more and more than if you compromise and don't harbor negative feelings you have a much better chance... Sounds simple enough but it comes with hard work from what I hear as well.

I once thought I was ready for a divorce so I went to see my lawyer.
He told me to take out a piece of paper, draw a line down the middle, and separate everything "we" own into mine and her's columns on each side.
After seeing that, I fell in love all over again.

Guess I've had a better experience than most in this thread, lol!!
Congratulations on your engagement and upcoming marriage!

okay, said I'd elaborate on this, and it may turn into a LONG story!!
I graduated from high school on 1/27/78, turned 18 on 2/5/78, and got married on 2/11/78 to my high school sweetie. we may still be married today had it not been for 1 comment that he made.
I am also not beyond not knowing not when to ZIP MY MOUTH when pissed off, but what he said was just an off the wall comment that I could never forgive him for. (even tho I truly believe he said it in a joking way, it just hit too hard for forgiveness, so REMEMBER........ words CAN hurt beyond repair)
my first husband committed suicide about 6 or so years ago in front of his children, so in that aspect, I'm not disappointed that our marriage didn't make it, and also, cuz I wouldn't have the kids that I have now had we remained married.
anyhoo..... on to the story.....
we married young, tried for 3 years to have a child with no luck...... I finally was put on a fertility drug by doctors, and became pregnant within 4 months..... at 6.5 months, I was diagnosed with pre-eclamptia, and sent to the university of IA for what I was told was *observation* before the baby was large enough to be delivered in Davenport. When I arrived in Iowa City, they had me in the delivery room with 2 hours with a blood pressure of 220/162, and they told me I HAD to have headaches and dizziness (which I didn't) .... Our son was delivered shortly thereafter at a weight of 1lb. 13 oz. (which today is no problem, but in 1982 it SUCKED). I was released from the hospital 2 days later after a c-section, and Jason remained in NICU. One night while sitting at my parents house when he was about a week old, my mom asked (which yes, I thought was sorta tacky in itself) how long we were going to wait to try and have another baby, and Bruce's response was * I think I'll try it next time, she already proved she couldn't do it right* .... do I think he MEANT his comment?? no...... do I think it did irreparable damage to the marriage?? hell YES
that comment will continue to haunt me until the day that I die.... so WATCH WHAT YOU SAY even in jest!!!!!!
RIP Jason, who we had to have disconnected from life support at the age of 16 days

I'm happily divorced and loving the single life. It has it's ups and downs but you control them....not a woman controling you. Maybe someday I'll have a good woman! I do see a few gals and enjoy them as they enjoy me. I just don't want a commitment after being raped by divorce and dealing with bullshit with custody issues.She was and is a real bitch/witch and hopefully you have a good gal that you can live a very pleasant life with. I just see myself never doing it again, but you never know and it will have to be a very special gal in many ways. Best of luck!!!!!!!!!
