Prince Harry and Meghan Living Together
W Magazine ^ | May 4, 2018 | avandaro

Posted on 05/04/2018 11:08:20 AM PDT by rovenstinez

The best prediction of a successful marriage is being able to live together and that's especially the case when in a small space. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, however, are already well on their way to passing that test. The future newlyweds are currently living in just 1,300 square feet at Kensington Palace.

I think that statistics actually say that couples who DON'T share the marriage bed together before the nuptial vows, have more likelyhood to make it to living happily ever after. SO WHY THE WEDDING. For sure she shouldn't dress in WHITE. Why the fanfare, the idea of a whoopla FUN party, was that the couple were suppose to go out and consumate their vows. WHAT ARE THEY CELEBRATING. Weird. Englands culture has gone towards the gutter. At least they could sneak around and make it appear that they had not been having sex. Sex is God;s gift to the couple for making the vows.

I know, it’s dreadful. By the way, William and Kate also shacked up before the wedding. The whole world’s gone to Hell.

This sickness Anglophiles feel at this display is nothing next to the gallons of vomit to come, when “Charles III” converts to Islam and it all comes crashing down.

I doubt many couples are chaste before the wedding these days, including tv stars and princes.

True, true, they could do that and maybe they should do that. But with essentially no one in the world being under the impression that this 36-year-old divorcee is some innocent young girl, they probably figure, why bother? You're right, though. The whole thing is a symptom of the cultural rot.

In an earlier era, "the firm" would have told a bloke like Harry in no uncertain terms to take his pick of nice, never-married, respectable English lasses and move on.

And, yes, I read [bs]”the future newlyweds are currently living in just 1,300 square feet at Kensington Palace.[/bs]

Isn’t that where the Queen Mum and Charles and Diana used to live?

I have feeling that their experience of occasionally occupying a 1,300-square-foot living space — in a restricted building — differs from that which you and I might have.

It’s like saying the couple is living like any other poor young couple in a two-level apartment. On a yacht.

Living together before the marriage actually increases the odds of getting divorced later on.

“The best prediction of a successful marriage is being able to live together”

That is actually false. The data says it’s not even close. Cohabitation and premarital sex predict divorce.

The biggest problems for couples is $ and intimacy.
I think they have $ covered.

The best prediction of a successful marriage is being able to live together...

Hogwash!

The best prediction of a successful marriage is being committed to each other, to your VOWs to each other, to families, to the community, and to God.

Lots of people can shack up together for a non-binding period of time. It is staying together, "For better or worse, in sickness & in health, 'til death do us part" that requires commitment.

I believe that her feelings are true, that her affection is sincere, that she really truly loves his money.

She’s regarded to be a good actress. Perhaps she’ll play the role until it bores her.

Yeah, like starting out with Salvation Army furniture, etc.

But, of course, even the “poor” in our area start out with IKEA designing their first Section 8 FREE homes!
