I think damnitscloudy should give it up to an older, wiser woman.
What Mach21 needs is some self-promotion!

petitekitten: Your stomach is grumbling. I think you must be
hungry!

Are you going to use that red rod in your photo? Ouch!

And Greyhound for that matter, too.

Only iRon had the right answer, lol. He's AWESOME! Gotta run over to the
"nicest guy" and write a quick post.

msteddybear2U: I don't think a quick marriage in your 20s should count,
if there were no children and was not any property. That's kind of
obviously a mistake on both people's part. When I say I have been
married twice, it sounds bad, I think, but I was married to one for 1
year and the other for 19 years.

I am not that nice, but I am kind. Not sure what difference is, but I
never aspired to be nice.

SheNerd, I am not so sure a spouse with a trail of dead wives/husbands
behind them is such a great idea, either, lol!

(Okay, before everyone goes apesh*t on me, that was a joke and not
intended to hurt anyone's feeling who has been widowed.)

I see no use for ticks, mosquitos, and roaches. The all spread diseases.
I think we need some insects. Just not the ones we think are gross!

That's my point. I'm not sure a lot of 50-year-olds know what love and
dedication is.

"You shouldn't even be married once by 18. Divorced twice is just crazy.
When you are that young you really have no idea what love and dedication
is."

Ladies, that is a no-brainer! Wow!

I'm really surpised. I dated a guy who told me he had been married
twice. Later I learned that he had been married 3 times. That was the
beginning of the end! One, he lied to me. Two, he obviously felt that
fact was something he needed to conceal from me. I just don't get this
game of musical chairs a lot of people play with spouses. It's serial
monogomy. That's fine, but how can you get up for the third or fourth
time in front of God and witnesses and say you promise to love someone
and be with them *forever*, and then just chuck them when "things
happen?"

Well, I busted a gut when my ex got married. I thought, does he *want*
to give all of his pension away? He got married 3 months after the
divorce, and he had not know his now-wife before we separated. I could
not ask for a better stepmother for my children and I hope she and my ex
are happy for a long time. It's just that the odds are not with them.


"I can't imagine going to a wedding, anywhere, for anybody and laughing
about the past marriages of the people getting married. So I wouldn't
have a hard time keeping a straight face."

I don't have prejudice. I didn't say I wouldn't talk to the person, date
them, or even sleep with them. I just would not marry them. There is
certainly a difference whether you were happy in your marriage and your
spouse died, or if you don't do well in the institution of marriage and
just don't recognize that about yourself.

I certainly wouldn't! I've been married twice (1st=brief starter
marriage in my 20s, no kids, no property; 2nd=19 years and two kids). I
mean, wouldn't you think, this person just cannot get the hang of
marriage. I don't plan on getting married again. Who could keep a
straight face at the wedding???

Heatherae: Hon, I am 46 years old, been through 2 marriages and 2
divorces, raised 2 great kids into their teens. This is as grown up as I
get. As I said right off the bat, this topic is for fun. We all have
thoughts we are not proud of. At least we can laugh about it. I
understand you don't like the topic, and that's fine. I just don't think
you have the right to tell people to grow up.

Or board for a flight!

Yeah, a scorpion beats a spider or roach any day. The ex showed his true
colors, huh? I don't mind most bugs, but a flying roach. . .they are the
lowest of low.

"Afterwards, we can all sit in a circle and drink some cheap wine." And
macrame thedoctor a belt, or plant holder, or a guitar strap.

Are you spelling it right?
