What ruins marriages and relationships is no communication, loss of respect, cheating, incompatability and many other things, INCLUDING the ascribing of certain rigid roles to a certain sex.  

 

This ^^^ 

 

I think its perfectly fine to have rigid ideas about the roles of different sexes. Just make sure you marry someone who share those principles. If you don't the blame is on you, not on "society that's changing"

Mutual respect, communication, honesty and actually being able to get on well.. in other words being able to coexist ..to me is more important than love..I have seen far to many toxic relationship to say hold on to love....it alone isn't enough.. that is just my opinion.

 

Yeah, you can love someone without liking them, and then later on down the road the love turns to resentment if the liking doesn't return.

This discussion is slowly moving away from the original intention of advice on divorce and support for those going through a tough time.

 

If you want to carry on the discussion in the direction that it is please do so on the Gillette thread, as that is where the current line of discussion will have more relevance.

Nothing like a bit of vaguely pointless Hub-squabbles to make people going through a hard time realise that things could be worse.

 

Glasses half full and all that!

The glass is always full......... it might just be a combination of water and air instead of just water.

;) Just to mess with things a little bit.

 

My little excursion this weekend to get away has gone really well. I went to visit my mom and she needed more than I did. Lazy relaxed and feeling good.

My lawyer is one seriously scary woman, Nice as can be but wow she went "Ok this is what we doing", the question was implied but wasn't really up for negotiation.

 

I am gonna say one thing though if not for my friend (Best Friends fiance) I don't think anything would have gone nearly as well. Having someone else looking out for your interests makes a difference. She made me tell the lawyer everything(I forget she took notes all during week about everything we talked about).

 

If you're in this position try and have a friend like that around, makes the world of difference.

WT actual F

My exact reaction when I learned of this.

My cousin broke up with his gf, but still managed to get her pregnant after the fact (I think it was entrapment).

He can't make ends meet to pay her maintenance, while she moved off some 600 km. 

Court orders his parents to foot the child support now, even though they were never married or even lived together.
