I don't much care for folks who make a living giving out marriage advice, especially since it seems like most of them have been divorced multiple times . . .

Really, if you both just behave like reasonable adults things usually seem to work out pretty well . . .

I can't give any kind of advice on marriage, except that if you find that right one........you don't have to change who you are, because she'll appreciate you for what you are.

The other thing that I've learned about marriage is the ones who tell you "Don't do it dude, it'll ruin your life" have probably been divorced once or twice, and the ones who tell you "it's the greatest thing in the world" are probably somewhat full of shit. Marriage has it's highs and lows, but if you sit around staring at the ocean.....afraid of the waves, you may never discover the fact that you are a damn good surfer (or snorkeler for the matter). So, if you think you've found the right chick......dive in, you've got nothing to lose. The worst thing that could happen to you is that you'll be one of those guys who sit around telling people not to do it, even though there is a damn good chance that you love the concept of marriage. At best you'll find someone that you completely dig. It never hurts to try.

I have married to my wife for almost 8 years now and everytime I see her I get goosebumps and thank God that I am so lucky.....I still to this day have a "high school" crush on my wife......

Though I have to call bullshit on the goosebumps comment, kudos. My final thought, never try to re-enforce your love for your wife by posting it on message boards...(or her pic for that matter). :wink:

That's true, as long as you don't consider losing a shitload of money, half your stuff and having a ton of stress, anything.
