The early warning signs of marital incompatibility

You forgot a big one: what is her relationship with her father? If she doesn't think her father walks on water, beware. If she says her father was a jerk, or a drunkard, or any other sort of miscreant, head for the hills immediately and do not look back. You will never do better than her father.

That's my ex to a tee. Plus, she idolizes her mother who is a bitter man-hating woman.

My dad is somewhat of a jerk. He has a drinking problem and anger issues. I love him to death, but I am not going to say he is a saint when he surely is not.

That's probably very true, if a woman doesn't like her father she's not apt to like or trust any man except in rare cases.

On the surface, you couldn't find two more dissimilar men than my dad and Xena's Guy. Dad's a big, boisterous, beer-drinkin', story-tellin' redneck who works with his hands and never met a stranger . . . XG is slender, quiet, musical, a techno-geek, and a listener so intense it freaks out people like me who come from a family of talkers.

But when it comes to character - integrity, honesty, work ethic, love of God and country, sticking by your woman and doing her right - well, I married my dad.
