Well, I like to talk to women. The ones I date tend to be really smart, creative, socially conscious and sweet. And, I like what they bring to my life. My goal is to find someone with whom a permanent deal will work.

I'm not sure whose game that is in your book, but the Good Book says it'll be a good thing, when it happens for me.
[Edited 6/25/06 22:25pm]


What about good looking?

I don't mind talking to women either depending on what the subject is about. I don't want to hear about all the drama in their life. I don't bore women with that and i expect the same in return. What i mean by the game is the whole let the man do the pursuing routine and then they decide the guys fate.

People like you are what's wrong with girls like me..... neutral razz wink

i understand ...

though i believe we DO have the power that divinity gave us to co create our lives along side him/her/spirit whatever

especially when times are tough

No higher power would bring people together to be called deragatory names, and be in a bad relationship. If you have heard or feel that God is calling you to that person, then it isn't God. If your partner is telling you that God brought you together, yet makes you miserable, berates you and all, then that person is using God as a manipulative tool to keep you constrained.


Okay, so say your right and God does not call me to this person. BUT the Bible says NO divorces unless your spouse cheats. So your spouse can do ANYTHING else they want to you, and you have to stay with them.

Yeah, ppl DO do that. I try to get hubby to put the act on when his sisters are around (cuz I don't want them to see our marraige is a mess, but he can't. He can't even ACT normal. disbelief

Name calling.....I'm sure it's normal for spouses to call eachother dumbass, and all that stuff.....but when does name calling go to far.....when does it cross the line?


We you are married, it is the ultimate Rubber/Glue. When my wife calls me a name, like dumbass, I simply respond "Yes Miss Dumbass".

How should you pick a partner?

Everyone obviously fights and has disagreements.....but how often would u say is unhealthy?

Name calling.....I'm sure it's normal for spouses to call eachother dumbass, and all that stuff.....but when does name calling go to far.....when does it cross the line?

I know there is such a thing as a happy marraige, how do you think it is acheived?

Is it acheivable over time, if UR not happy in the begining?


I'm not married and I'm terminally single, so take my answers for what they're worth. lol.

I absolutely can't be in a relationship with someone I'm constantly fighting with. Some couples get off on it, but it's not for me. A bit of conflict now and again is healthy, but I can't be happy if I'm aggravated all the time.

Name calling, well, depends on the situation. In general, no, it's something I don't put up with, but I've also said my share of things in the heat of the moment I've regretted later. I can forgive if it's not a regular occurrence.

If you're not happy in the beginning, I'm not sure why you'd ever get married. So that question baffles me.
I don't think any marriage is bound to be happy all the time. And I think there's something to honoring your commitment to each other to try to make things work. But if you've tried everything and you just can't make it, you're better off going your separate ways.

If you really believe in marraige, then it's always worth saving because it's for better or worse.

But I think any relationship can get through the tough times if the foundation is love, not just lust, and you can talk about your issues and the partner will listen and respond.

Growing to love each other is possible. I think plenty of arranged marriages work out okay.

But only you know when it's all too much.

See, I like your answer the best.....I think. Are you saying marraige can be worked out if you really try, cuz it's better to stay and try to work it out than just end it?

Yes, if you believe in it, you're ready for it, and you're BOTH willing to work at it. Getting through the tough times can make you stronger and build a history that will mean even more as you get old & gray.

That's a generalization, though, I don't know your situation.

Yes, that's the only way. You need to have something in common, but the desire to work on the relationship can be one of those things.

I agree- sometimes one person has tried for so long then when the other person realizes there's a problem- it is too late. You have got to start off with a good foundation and communication. I thought my husband & I would be together forever since we NEVER fought.. Boy was I wrong..

Typical woman thinking. If there are tough times between you it's not meant to be. Don't put up with "tough times". Typical drama loving attitude.

So what if one person admits they have a problem and promises to change over and over again. But then turn around and do the thing they said they wouldn't do like 2 minutes later, and all day long, until it's time for bed and they wanna get some?

They realize and admit they have a problem, and that's the first step, but HOW LONG does that last.....how long does it take to fix it?

sounds like this person may not be serious and are just saying these things to make it seem that they may be ... in hopes it works so as to gain sex

??

i dont know...the little bit shared here doesnt sound / feel right

feels like games and NOT a mature relationship or at least on one side
