What about the woman who has a lot of male and female friends that end up having to give them up because the man grows. There is some isolation right there....women give up a lot of shit to marry you guys too....don't think we don't.

Luckily for my guy, I like him to smoke weed, drink his beer and leave me the fuck alone sometimes...haha, shit! I grow with him...I get covered in shit and dirt with him, I drink beer with him...I smoke out with him all day too.

Marriage can be awesome...I'm married without the paper work, and it's fucking great. Plus, we chose not to have children...just reptiles and cats (fuckin awesome). He knew he couldn't be with a chick that didn't smoke tree...and wasn't sort of a tomboy that will do fun shit with him (he actually won't mountain bike and play catch with ME).

You just gotta marry the right girl that understands the male brain a little, even if she's more "girly". It's give and take....some woman don't give enough, but some men take too much.. Who knows, I just smoked some pretty decent bud and I'm just typing...

I understand what you feel like... the situation you're in, I was the one in my relationship that gave up the social life for my man... my friends are more straight laced and I can't even risk the "wrong" person coming over, we have things to protect...I have him to constantly think of...his safety and freedom.....that's my man :)


this is a good woman right here.^^


reminds me of my lovely lady. Do you cook? my lady cooks fine dining which is fucking awesome.

marriage is a financial institution. dont believe me? try getting divorced

4kids, nah..
I don't keep my kids on lay-away
LOL,
marriage is a fine institution if you like being institutionalized..

j/k.. 5 year anniversary is in july.
Its partly my fault I lost my childhood friends. I guess some people choose different roads and some make new paths. I guess I didn't grow up and my friends did.
but being that there is 1200 miles between my old crew and that I'm not able to play the race scene game anymore, and they don't smoke anymore. Chasing birds isn't on the agenda either, We lost the things that keep us together.

Make friends with other married men, bachelors will never understand your relationship with your wife, or respect it. Even married men with no children seem mystified by my dedication to my wife and children, my priorities in life have changed, I no longer look for leisure activities to waste my time like I did as a bachelor, "hanging out" and getting wasted is no longer a legitimate past time.

Many old friends see my wife and kids as a ball and chain, but thats only because they have not matured enough to see the importance of family, living instead as eternal Junior high kids.

Just a bit of advice, as your new life evolves, embrace it, don't fight it, find friends that understand your new mature lifestyle, and let those who don't fall by the wayside.

forgot to comment on this thread.... didnt read any replies. But i'm not married.

However, once i moved away from the area i grew up in, I was an youngadult (early 20's old enough to drink) a few years ago, i found it VERY hard to make new friends. I even was going to a community college part time then. I met a few people, but I never met anyone like my friends back home.

Met a damn lota crazy interesting people on craiglist though. I think my city is one of the most popular in the country for CL. Probably 100+ post a day in the strictly platonic section.

(my friends...) They are nothing special by a long shot, mostly all drug addicts, functioning ones, but horribly addicted. And this is coming from someone thats for the complete legalization of ALL drugs.

However, they are still all like family to me. The only other friends i've met that are comparable are friends from this site.
