Having been divorced once and widowed once I can say, "I've looked at life from both sides now...." from in and out and still somehow..it's life's illusions I recall...I really don't know life at all. Maybe that comment is true..we silly old bats really don't know!!! True! I'd forgotten the end to the song. ha ha! But I know that I know life better than the lil' gal who said in another thread that single people wouldn't be able to advise her on her problem. I've never owned a goat but if someone said, "My goat is eating all my veggies!" I could tell her what to do. I mean.... |

She didn't mean it bad, she trusts m2 people more for wisdom than relationship status...

She didn't mean it bad, she trusts m2 people more for wisdom than relationship status... Yeah. But from what I read, she wasn't the one who originally brought it up. I don't think the one that did would consider many of us very wise since we are all still single. |

I love y'all and if someone doesn't want my advice I will hunt them down and grab them by the lapels and force it down their uninformed throats.

well later explained that the trust for others is non-existant... At least it wasn't mean in a completely rude way like it sounded at first...

I guess if were single..we were just doing it wrong, so we know nothing.. geez...I like to think I learned from those past mistakes. The thought of being my age not having any wisdom...I may as well kill myself, and am just useless as far as teaching my son's anything. Rather silly sounding now that I re read it... To a point I agree with the original message. most of us are single because we got it wrong. Wouldn't it be smarter to get relationship advice from someone that has mad it work for 20-30-40 years or more! It takes 2 to make a relationship work, and most often 2 to make one fail. |

Well said, anyone can give advice but the best advice about being a success at anything is probably from those who have succeeded. |

Just because someone is married for 20+ years doesn't mean they know what they're talking about. My father's parents were married for 50 years and from what I've learned it was a simply horrible marriage, for everyone involved. I have friends whose parents have been married for 20 years or more, and it's the same story. Just because you choose to stay married to someone doesn't make you an expert on love. In my opinion, it makes you an idiot- only a damned fool remains in a screwed up marriage. JMO

I wouldn't ask a vegetarian where to get the best steak in town, I wouldn't ask a blind man to paint my house. or to teach me to drive. I wouldn't ask a lifelong Nun for sex advice. I sure as hell wouldn't take Marital advice from a divorced Marriage counselor ! |

marriage doenst mean a successful relationship,, a successful relationship means a successful relationship and it usually means the parties involved arent single
