If you are a hopeless romantic, you might wannna stop reading right. About. Now. Today at the theater I saw Revolutionary Road. It tells many truths about marriage, mates, Life, hope, the dreams we have and those dream's ultimate demise.
I got home and while I grilled wings, The Namesake happened to be on cable. It's a movie that tells even greater truths than the great truths I saw earlier on the big screen.
Marry a bipolar. A wo/man who's a freak in private but a school marm in public.
Marriage For Life is a ridiculously absurd idea. Whoever came up with it was insane.

Marriage not only limits your activities but with whom you engage in those activities.
"Working on your marriage" is as silly a collection of words as "george w. bush will be a semi-adequate C-average president." Get real. Work on a marriage? Please.
I reluctantly say I believe in arranged marriages.

Not married are you?
ReplyDeleteI guess most people get married to get married. I do believe in soul mates however but thats because I have mine. Honestly I don't feel held back at all. Granted I've had a much odder life then most up til now anyway.
But you know Alex and I are happy, we do things togethers, things he likes and things I like and not always are they things we both like but we're at least willing to give it a shot to find out why the other likes it so much.
I'm very thrilled to be married to my soulmate. Call me silly most people would but you know what there are very few people out there that don't have what I have in a marriage but then again most people don't marry there soulmate.
You guessed correctly. I am not married. I've been married twice, both times more than a dozen years
ReplyDeleteAnd no, I never married a soulmate, a person I'd describe as being willing to COMPROMISE, although the first was far ahead of the second in this regard, I just didn't know it at the time.
As you say, you "do things togethers, things he likes and things I like and not always are they things we both like but we're at least willing to give it a shot to find out why the other likes it so much."
That's a fundamental feature of married life. I did that with both of the women I married; they weren't so willing to do the same for me.
I am happy that you found your soulmate. Not many do or ever will. At best, they will find someone they are half-way able to tolerate.
