Still better than Cali. But it’s a comparative. I got out just in time; during a November 2021 special session which was supposed to deal with redistricting matters, the legisl00ture chose to override Hogan’s veto of two bills that make Maryland a true sanctuary state for the ongoing invasion.

She’s right on all points she making the right move for a future and not just existing in CA.
She can now enjoy life not fight it.

Best of luck

what does this song mean? I’m still listening to it, looked up the lyrics, complicated, creative and intriguing. That harmony.

I guess I have to say I did it the most!

“She was warned by a friend to never marry the man she loved.”

Often good advice!! The baggage...

Today, the warning is often due to adult survivor children with at least 2 sets of parents with two retirement systems and varying soc. sec and home ownerships.

A female relative in her early 50’s became a widow. After about a year, she and a widower got together. Most of the relatives on the widow’s side really like her new friend and we often suggested to her to marry him.

Fortunately, a couple of sisters and a cousin like a wise aunt suggested to just stay friends. She listened to the later group.

He died in a vehicle accident, and the children from the 2 previous marriages acted like sharks coming in to feed in the ocean on the dead body/estate. Even some of his siblings joined into the savagery of the feeding frenzy.

The only ones, who made or got money were the lawyers on both sides.

We are now seeing a rerun of this plot locally with a widow and a dead husband with investments.

When I was single I had a rule: Never date a man with children! And I never did. I don’t have any and figured that life and marriage are hard enough already. Bringing that unknown into the equation seemed like a terrible idea.

The man I married had no kids and it was too late age-wise to think about that. So we have cats.

I was thinking only of the children when they were little. I never went farther to consider adult children and those dynamics. Sounds even worse than little kids.

” was thinking only of the children when they were little. I never went farther to consider adult children and those dynamics. Sounds even worse than little kids.”

From what we see re people dating and marrying a previously married individual with adult children basically doesn’t work for the couple getting re married.

The battles and hard feelings with the adult children seem to last forever
