Default Re: Why do you stay married?

Married 17 years and counting.

I am still with my wife since I can say without a shadow of a doubt that I am a better person because of being with her.

Interested in hearing from guys who have been married 3+ yrs. Why do you stay married? From what I hear (read jake's bar reports) there's a lot of tail running around out there and most of it isn't looking to restrict your poker time.

You can't be over 22 physically or 15 emotionally.

He said good...not frequent.

LOL - tax chick chiming in here. The sex is both frequent & excellent. Define frequent you say. Averages out to once a day, but we take a day or two off per week and more than make up for it on the weekends [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Can't say I would trade code for anything. Although after February, he may want to trade me in, we will see.

Yes dear, you got it right, March 1997. Of course we have been together since 1993, so go figure...

Married 12+ years...

Cheaper to keep'er...

I like my kids.

I want to see them more than every other weekend.

Lawyers are ------EV.

Wives are -PV with positive variance that is just barely enough not to make your head asplode.

There are better things than sex in this world...I just haven't found them yet. PM me if you know where to look.

I have been married for 13 years (since I was 19) and I would have to say my response would almost be the same as this guys word for word.

Sex is non-existant, she nags constantly about poker, but I love my kids, and believe it or not I love her.

Maybe its just fear of the unknown! [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

wow, hearing this kind of stuff makes me sad. Have you told her that you need more sex in your marriage? Husbands and wives both deserve to get their needs met. I can't imagine living in a sexless marriage.

I think it would be impossible to explain to anyone who would ask this question. Not meant to be snide btw.

Default Re: Why do you stay married?

I love my wife.
I love my kids.
I couldn't afford separate househol;ds and child support. (I am a divorce attorney so I know of which I speak.)
My life is not perfect but it is comfortable. My wife is not perfect but I love her. I am far from perfect and she loves me.
I am not remotely interested in dating again, can't imagine another women willing to put up with me.
