Single guys... Up for it?

Married Guys... If you could do it over would you still do it?

Divorced Guys.... Would you do it again?

Getting married next July. Looking forward to it but maybe that's because I currently live on the other coast from my fiance.

If you're asking the question, you probably shouldn't get married.

I lived with my wife for 3 years, so it isn't much different. Party Poker makes things a little difficult.

I'd marry her again in a heartbeat. A good woman makes a man better.

I am in the divorced category.

For me, if everything was right it wouldn't really matter whether I was married or not.

Whether I will ever find that... who knows?

Ditto, I consider myself quite lucky.

I don't think marriage is for everyone though.

This should be a poll.

I did consider it but figured a free exchange of ideas was ok too.

Oh and I am lazy.

Getting married this November... my poker bankroll is going to pay for the honeymoon (cause she doesn't want me playing poker after we're married) /images/graemlins/confused.gif

Getting married is a horrific pain in the ass.

Being married is pretty cool.

Yep, it sure is. I got engaged a month ago, and it's been non-stop ever since.

It's like a license to steal from you.

That's ok. Get used to being broke...

Yup, I'm getting married in June.

I keep trying to convince her parents to let us elope and give us the money they would spend on the wedding to put towards a house.

I always say this jokingly, but...

Married, definitely would do it again if you are talking about a going back in time sort of deal. However if for some reason I got divorced, I highly doubt I would remarry. I wouldnt have the energy or motivation to devote that much of myself to someone all over again.

My stance on marriage is a very cautious one, both my grandparents were divorced, and both of my parents have been divorced twice, with my dad now on his 3rd marriage.

I've been with my current girlfriend for two years, and I'd want like another 3-4 before I'd really consider getting married to her.

I'm so set up for failure its not even funny, and I'd rather be sure of this person than jumping into a marriage that is doomed to failure.

It is pretty scary once you have seen how bad it can go isn't it?

Weird, your family situation (parents divorced twice, dad on third marriage, although actually dear old dad is going through his 3rd divorce as we speak, both sets of grandparents divorced once) is identical to mine. Maybe we are long lost brothers. I understand caution, but dont sell yourself short.

I won't go that far....but Freakin, if poker is something you love to do, why would she want you to stop?

That's bunk, man.

I definitely see myself getting married at some point down the line. Not anytime soon though, probably not in the next 8-10 years. I have 4 friends, 2 of whom aren't even old enough to drink, that are all engaged. It's weird man, I'm not down with that right now.

This is correct, I watched my parents marriage crumble. My mother totally raped my pops.

Had him locked up for 3 day for terroristic threats( which is bullshit!)

She booted him from his own house.

Allowed him to enter the house with police officers for 15 mins to get some personal iteams and clothes.

Ma dukes didnt continue to pay the mortage on the house (out of spite, pops was sending her cash) so the bank took it. With only 2 or 3 years left to pay on it.

Pops lost his job (company went under) mom demanded half his pension. Immedatily.(taxes are a bitch)

pops allowed mom to keep the new mini van. As a woman, never put oil in it, the engine seized. Mom left it on the side of the turn pike (In NJ a Federal Crime) Pops did another 3 day in lock up. I asked mom why did you do that, She said "its isnt my van."


The list goes on and on .

So years later I ask my mom "what the hell was your problem"

She say "I just didnt want to be married any more."

So am I scared ummmmm yeah, men always get the [censored] end of the stick if the relationship goes sour.
