[history]
Emotional problems are equally common among husbands and wives, new research shows, a finding that challenges the feminist belief that marriage makes men happier but women more miserable.
The results of the largest study to investigate the question were published in the Australian journal Family Matters.

He will teach you how to seduce women easy!!! It's easy to seduce a different woman every week or so.
Try seducing the same woman for 26 years.
It takes a real man to do THAT!

Im way too cheap to pay 350$ for a dubious study course on something that can't be taught. If I wanted women that badly I'd simply lift and work out all day for a long time.

2timothy3.16 That's a surprising take for someone with a Bible verse as there screen name.
You are not encouraging fornication are you?

Those who attack in discussions, are usually those who cannot argue or debate effectively. You dont know anything about me, but for an opinion.
Is that all you got, dear?
To: sinkspur
Sorry to pick but I just don't think it is necessary to curse.
I do agree that this fellow knows nothing of what he speaks.

Because there's a lot more to a relationship than gettin' your wick dipped. If all you want from women is sex I recommend you move somewhere that has legalized prostitution and save yourself the BS. On the other hand, if you actually want to enrich your life I suggest you learn about things like companionship and love.

Indeed, Sir, you correct and you are a better man than I!!! God bless!
I tend to not have many long-term relationship problems, since I try not to give women I meet me real name. Oh well! :-)

Planning for failure is a self fulfilling prophecy. My parents were divorced too, I chose to learn from their mistakes and my marriage is has lasted twice as long as theirs and is going stronger than they ever dreamed. In some parts of life it's best not to look at the finish line, because in some parts of life your actual goal is to never cross the finish line.

Nah, that's not what women want, not really. Check out the website and the course. I'm serious. He teaches students to use Neuro Lingusitic Programming with the goal of seduction. Lots of satisfied students. Ross, the teacher, is one funny guy too!

Those who attack in discussions, are usually those who cannot argue or debate effectively.And those who talk about something about which they know nothing are usually wrong.
Most people marry, and, even if they divorce, they try to marry again.
Those who don't, or won't, or can't, are on the outside looking in.
You can opine about parachuting out of a plane, too, but, unless you've actually done it, you don't have quite the credibility of someone who HAS.

You dont know if I have been married or not, but you spouted off half-cocked, because you didnt like someone else' opinion. That is fascist(or liberal democrat) behavior, honey.
Now, while my life is none of your business, and yours none of mine, I suggest you learn to allow others their opinions, whether you like them or not.
Who knows, you might learn something. Naw, probably not.

No one should have their life ruined because of a single decision huh?
Tell that to Christopher Reeves, one bad decision and he's paralyzed from the neck down for life.
Better off that Sonny Bono though, one bad decision and he's dead.
People's lives get ruined by single bad decisions every day in this world. That's how life works. Problem is you're obsessed on the failure, that kind of thinking cripples people. What happens if the company you work for goes under? The house you live in collapses? The region you call home suffers some major disaster? All of life is geared to failure if that's what you expect. Better to work for success. If you make your marriage work then the state of the divorce laws has no impact on you. Obsess over failure as a reason to succeed, not as a reason to flee in terror.

The divorce rate is 52%( vast majority filed by women) your risking 50% of your stuff plus possibly alimony and child support irregardless of the conduct of either party in the marriage. Some people might think they've got the perfect woman but women tend to change radically around 35 their whole hormonal balance and biochemistry radically alters sorry nothing about marriage appeals to me but im about as cynical as they come.

That is fascist(or liberal democrat) behavior, honey. Do you call all men you meet "honey"? No wonder you can't make it with the ladies.
I suggest you learn to allow others their opinions, whether you like them or not.
weikel has his opinion. Since he's not been married, though, it is, in my opinion, inaccurate.

You mentioned my macho bull****. Don't worry I almost never report abuse the the only time I really do no matter how pissed off I am is for guys who signed up yesterday posting obvious leftist threads( and I think I did back when that Saudi propagandist Patria One was here and that was about it).
