Women, just like streetcars, another one will be along in about 15 minutes.
Marriage vs hunting. It shouldn't be a choice. If it is there's a problem before you get out the gate.
Here's my two cents, which probably ain't worth that.
Here's some things you better figure out with your potential spouse BEFORE you ever tie the knot. These are the most likely things you and your other half will disagree about so you better figure 'em out, one way or the other, before hand. I call 'em the "seven biggies".
1. Money - How much do you have, how much do you need and how to spend it.
2. Sex - How much do you need and when do you get it.
3. Time - How much do you have and how to spend it, both together and apart. (this is where the hunting comes in)
4. Kids - How many, if any, do you want and when, and how will you raise them.
5. Careers - Who all needs one and who will make sacrifices for it.
6. Family/relatives - How close do you want to be and do you both agree on how involved they will be in your lives.
7. Religion - Do you agree on it, or at least agree to disagree on it.
No big mystery here, just communication. By the way, been married 25 + years.
