Anyone who ‘falls in love’ acrossparty.lines is headed for certain disaster. No ifs, ands, or bits about it.
Don’t marry a Leftist. Period.
I dated a radical feminist Democrat in college. She aspired to be a lawyer, so she loved to argue. That bitch picked an ideological fight at every opportunity. I got sick of it really fast and dumped her. I learned my lesson early.
Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?
2 Corinthians 6:14
Never sleep with a woman who would murder your child.
Thirty-five years ago I dated a woman who was a conventional liberal. She was cute and nice and fun and a great cook. We stopped dating after a while but have remained friends. She went completely Obamabot in 2008 and has become more Leftist as the years have gone by. I see what she posts on FB. It would have eventually been a nightmare to be married to her.
This whole idea of peacefully coexistance between the “left” and “right” has ended. Communists and Americans cannot occupy the same country and be governed as one nation. It’s just impossible.
They arrest and imprison your President and then invite you over for cookout?
Advice - don’t date or marry outside your species.
"Over the course of our marriage, our values have naturally meshed. . . . we have ended up with a pretty similar worldview."
No one agrees on everything 100%. There will be disagreements. People learn and grow and change their opinions. I assume she adopted his position on the issue, and not the other way around (or he wouldn't be writing for that publication).
Hmm. This reads like the tortured rationalizations of a man who doesn’t realize he has a very painful and expensive divorce in his future.
