joelgilb Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 6 divorces later, 17 kids, alimony, child support and 2 steps away from the poor house and nut house and I got to ask.... What are you THINKING???? (Thinking out loud) Maybe I should have written a few Pre-Nup Agreements???? Or had a vasectomy??? Ok, just kidding. Actually on my second marriage here and wouldn't have it any other way. And really don't regret much from the first marriage (she had issues, was and is bi-polar and cheated, but I still wish her well), have 2 beautiful girls from that one. Wish you the best of luck. And know, that the statistics say that men live longer when they are married (wonder if that means happily though?). Joel :wacko: Quote
