Married or not
 

So interesting to see peoples views on marriage on the Scamp getting married thread so just wondering if people have put their money where their mouth is?

Re: Married or not
 

Are you going to add a poll?

Re: Married or not
 

patience meow- I was writing it! blimy you're high maintenance ;)

Re: Married or not
 

I would admire the optimism of the person divorced after a 3rd marriage but would marry again.
Or maybe the whole thing is so devalued at that stage it's like just having a new gf or bf.

Re: Married or not
 

My wives ex has divorced number 4 and has asked number 5. But she can't decide if she'll leave her husband yet ROFL! She's in Oman.

Re: Married or not
 

I see why it took you so long. How many options? :blink:

Can I just say happily married without going into details?


And high maintenance? Actually not as a partner.

Re: Married or not
 

sorry meow I got carried away but I know we have some casanovas on here so am interested how many times people will tie the knot - was gonna go higher than 12 but restrained myself. I wonder if the divorce rate is higher as an expat or lower or no different?

I must say having some of my friends starting to go through divorces and separations, some on their second marriage it's interesting to see some seem forever optimistic whereas some have sworn never again.

My Dad is on his fourth. I think. Maybe third. He's been with my step mum longer than he was with my mum though so finally got it right...maybe.

Re: Married or not
 

It must leave a trail of insane family complications in its wake, all of these marriages especially if there are kids involved each time.

Re: Married or not
 

First marriage - 37 years this coming Wednesday.

Re: Married or not
 

wow congratulations HND!

Re: Married or not
 

Wives ex had two first marriage. One of whom eventually ended up living with them. So he considers my wife to be his mother, no contact with biological mother. Then 3 kids with my wife, long marriage. None with numbers 3 or 4 who also had no kids. Number 5 (designate) has a child or two which is likely to be problematic.
Only one of my stepkids was young enough to still fall under his sphere of influence, the rest were young adults.

Re: Married or not
 

Can I have a proviso, maybe I won't marry again, who knows, I wouldn't say i want to per se, but if the opportunity came along (obviously to a 22 year old Thai bird), then I may say yes - having checked out the credentials of course...

Re: Married or not
 

Yep.

I've got two half sisters in Wales apparently. Dad hasn't seen or hear from them in my lifetime (despite trying for years). It's never spoken of though.

Now I've got two step sisters, two 'mum's' and a hoarse of step nieces/nephews.

To be honest, it's the hand we were all dealt but I feel lucky to be part of two families...if that makes sense

Re: Married or not
 

checking it wasn't a cock in a frock then !

Re: Married or not
 

No gay/LGBT options in the poll?

Deanetta and I just went past 30 years...........

[PS: Old Jimmy Tarbuck joke circa 1968 - "My wife and I were very happy for almost 25 years - then we met................"]

Re: Married or not
 

next year will be 6 years. how time flies!

Re: Married or not
 

6 years! my husband and I were both in previous marriages :)

Re: Married or not
 

Hang on... you have a kid that is about 7 years old... how does that work?

Re: Married or not
 

Someone does the pokey dance....either that, or a snatch and grab.

Re: Married or not
 

Dean no, no gay or lesbian option, in the poll nowhere does it state sexual preference, I guess i could have added 'in long term relationship with no intension of marriage' although that could be classified as other. Don't think I can add to a poll.

Re: Married or not
 

I'm trying to figure this all out. Sounds almost as complicated as an aristocrat's marriages.

Re: Married or not
 

Happily married. :)

First Christmas is coming up. I've been putting a little something by to make it special.

Re: Married or not
 

A very small condom?

Re: Married or not
 

off to Balmoral for Christmas Ethos?

Re: Married or not
 

Silky Mrs Santa outfit?

Re: Married or not
 

Gimp suit and snooker ball?

Re: Married or not
 

No married and never have been. Wouldn't be against the idea.

Re: Married or not
 

12 inch dildo, tub of vaseline and a bag of sand?

Re: Married or not
 

They do say that a man isn't complete until he's married.

Then he's finished ;)

Re: Married or not
 

I was saying 6 years since Insellafen got married! I would have thought it was about 4! I have been married 11 years and have a 9 year old.

Re: Married or not
 

What dirty minds you all have :unsure:

I was thinking along the lines of a nice piece of jewelry. That's all.

Re: Married or not
 

Pearl necklace always looks good.

Re: Married or not
 

Re: Married or not
 

Damn, missed one.

Re: Married or not
 

Yet men live longer when they are married.

The reverse is true for women. They live longer if unmarried.

Re: Married or not
 

She already...

Never mind. I'm not biting this one.

Re: Married or not
 

If you eat healthily, she won't have to chew it either.

Re: Married or not
 

Come on man, don't live up to your dull sterotype all the time. Take her to the Icehotel at the North Pole and get dragged along by Huskis, or something.

Or a microbrewery. All chicks like that. It's like a mixture of cooking and science.

Re: Married or not
 

Don't be daft Millhouse. Ethos doesn't do humour or fun.
