Questions Couples Should Ask (Or Wish They Had) Before Marry

[peg4x4]

Whooo,wish I'da had that many years ago ...answer to all questions was no to all on his part...I'm answering for him,from experence at the time(divorced for 30 years)

Is anyone naive enough to think the answers would stay the same to all the questions throughout the marriage-I realize that some of you got involved in bad deals but sheesh give it a rest. What are you going to do post the answers on the fridge and debate the answers over breakfast every A'M. (Married 20 years) eloped and didn't ever answer any silly questionairre-most realationship experts are like child rearing experts they've never experienced what they are advising on.

"Relationship Experts"?

I think I have heard it all now. :roll:

 

[Judith]

Good grief, couples change and evolve in relationships. Part of the for better of for worse thing I think. There is no way a list is going to help. Everything depends on the give and take. Learning how to graciously lose arguments (even when you KNOW your right). And for the love of donuts men, act like you are proud to hold your women's hand in public. simple things matter! Commitment is the key, your either in or your out. I don't think it gets much more complicated than that.

wife and I dated 3 months...I moved home to farm, she was still down in central Kansas......a couple months of 2 hour drives on weekends and I was going nuts. So, one Saturday while picking corn I told her I can not afford to drive every weekend. she says what do you mean. so I told her lets get married.

3 weeks later we were hitched!

no experts, no premarital questions, just a long 3 week wait for the honeymoon!

What is with this? Why do you gals feel you need to do that? It freakin drives me crazy. It's not that I don't care, I open the doors and let her go first and things like that. It's just that holding hands just drives me nuts.

 

[Judith]

Its affection women like affection. Having your significant other come home and honk the twins at the door is not affection ( I know, I know alot of fellas think it is sweet but.....) Now of course there are times when you just can't. Your pushing carts, have 14 babies climbing all over, these types of scenarios. Holding hand is just plain ole sweet Girls like a guy who is proud to be with them. Also fellas dancing around in the nude while we are on the phone is also not particularly helpful

I am really starting to think my wife is on here and using Judith as a cover...... I had a bad habit of honking the twins....she decided that every time I did that she was gonna thump me in the twig and berries. I stopped honking almost immediately......unless I used the old honk and haul ash!

 

[Maple Leaf Angus]

Oh Jiggsy.










:lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

 

[IL Rancher]

I prefer the arm around the back shoulder or waist over the holding hands thing but really, a little PDA seems to go a long way with my wife...

As far as honking the twins, you are probably right, not the best way to say hello.... But it sure is a fun way, :wink: :lol: :lol: And this negativity to nude dancing..... Does this also mean a quick little goose and grope when you are on the phone is also frowned upon.. So many rules... So many rules.

 

[hossmn]

I asked those very questions before I got married..........all six times

 

[Northern Rancher]

I just asked-How p'o'ed are they going to be when we get home lol.

I like your style. :wink:

That government that governs least governs best.

As my old neighbor said, "The only rule I go by is that I don't have any rules."

Soapweed up here in bilingual land it's called' Laiseiz Faire' I believe.

 

[Judith]

OWWWW my sides, bahahahaha stop it you guys

The mrs. wats me to add that a little naked "woo, woo" (while holding onto the , ahem, "twig",) doesn't constitue a valid invitation. Also a race to the bedroom, shedding clothing, isn't a real sign of affection either.

You woman are all so fussy. I say, take it where you can get it and it's all about affection. Hell, if I wasn't feelin' affectionate towards her, I sure wouldn't do any of them things. :wink:

 

[Judith]

Thanks for the giggle JB!~ No matter how far apart well all live each and everyone that has replied knows EXACTLY what the others are talking about So much for learned behaviors, i'd have to say it's genetically ingrained. Which quite frankly makes it all even more funny ROTFLMBO

 

[sic 'em reds]

JB, I think you're confusing affection with erection. My wife says they're two different things. I tell her if she wasn't showing me affection, there would be no erection.

(Sorry I got a little racey for some folks, it's all in fun)
