I think the problem with us is we move to fast. We are the generation of instant gratification. We just don't take enough time to get to know the people we try to build with. So we get disappointed and discouraged easier

Possibly, I think similar but from a completely different angle. Everything back then was faster. Puberty, job, marriage, kids. In fact I would say that has more to do with it than anything. People just have more freedom today. Freedom from old societal norms and persecutions. Way more people to cheat with. Longer time to do all these things in life. I wouldn't say we're the "generation of instant gratification" that's a simple biological base. All animals have it. We're just the ones that are in a time place where we can act on it on average more than before. And I don't believe it has anything to do with "knowing" whoever you're building with. Its simple ego. People choose their own happiness over everyone else's because again they have that freedom. it is what it is.

I'm female and just crossed the 15 year mark of marriage. How might I contribute to this thread?

Did you meet your husband in high school or college?

Are your or his parents still together?

How many pre marital bodies did you have?

How are disagreements resolved?

What do you both do for a living?

Just got married last month, wife is 25 and I'm 34. Hope we make it. We have been through so much shyt in 3 years it ain't funny. Alot of people are rooting for us to fail. We both agreed til death due us part, let's see.

Good luck. If I do decide to get married it would hopefully be similar to your scenario. There’s a couple of women in their early to mid 20s I’m talking to, scoping out their potential wifey material.

This is the most cynical jaded ass forum....next to them LSA hoes

So you would rather overlook statistics and facts all in the name of love even if doing the latter grantees you a 60 percent chance of divorce ?

nah its social vs non social jobs if you notice.. the high divorce rate jobs are almost all jobs where people meet a decent amount of people on the daily. More exposure = higher chance of cheating or finding someone different. If you a scientist building satalites 8 hours a day you aint got time to cheat or find someone but if you bartending youll meet 500 people tonight

a bartender can meet hundreds of people a night, some ugly, some attractive to them.. plus alcohol involved so people generally more social under these conditions, as with the gaming cage/service people. Basically 3 jobs where you are around alcohol all day and night and with people out having a good time.

Under these conditions people meet what they feel are upgrades to what they have at home.. rather its the vip girl who meets a NFL player or the bartender who meets a more attractive person than what they have at home

Also, the ones with low divorce rates have careers and not jobs. They understand that reward comes with time and commitment, hence their profession. Those “transitional” jobs reflect people’s choices in relationships too in most cases.

Former high school nemeses actually. Got cool senior year and kept in touch after graduation.

My mother is remarried. His mother is married.

His count was 100+. I've only had one other partner apart from him.

Disagreement resolution...usually talking and giving each other space to think and come around. We still have a lot of work to accomplish in this area honestly. Knockdown, drag out fights are not norm, though. We both have sort of "cerebral" temperaments and that might be why.

He's a manager at his job and I'm a stay at home mother.

True I just hear people nowadays spew the same stuff like "if you not fukking by the third date it's the bushes" "if you not tryna move in together after a few months it's over". Everything might not be rushed but it feels like it. Then again I've been accused of having commitment issues so I guess my perspective is skewed

Congratulations I hope it works out for you ! Respect each other ...I'm very anti marriage but if you have that love connection and financially stable, careers. Nothing wrong with trying.

I lucked out. She has similar values, believes in catering to her husband and she doesn't believe in divorce. Best thing to do is have serious conversations about marriage expectations, child rearing, relationship maintenance anything you can that is important to you. Communication is major.

I hope you marry a good one.
