its better to get a divorce then stay together "for the kids" and have them grow up in a negative environment with parents that hate eachother.

To this day I think of my parents being together and get the chills... or laugh... depends on my mood. But yikes... I wonder how they ever go together in the first place and I think if they stayed together they would both be miserable... so now... at least my dad is happy right? (mom will never be, thats just how she is)

what im sayinnnng is im scared to get married cause of that factor... i dont want to get a divorce silly bean

pssshhh well no crap dufus, I doubt anyone really goes into a marriage saying "Hhheeyyyy I wanna get divorced" well... if they did they'd be really dumb for getting married in the first place.

Anyhow... you focus wwaayyyy too much on the future... Balance is key. If the person is right you should know, but hey shit happens, we aren't fortune tellers.

I think Lincoln also used to have sex with lots of the women in the house that worked for them... what'd they call them oh yeah slaves. But I'm sure that had nothing to do with his wife, if she nagged a lot it was probably all her fault.

Sure sure :)

um, lincoln didnt have any slaves, he was really poor and couldnt afford them even if he wanted to and lived in a 'free state'... although there is no proof that says he didnt, there is strong evidence showing his thoughts about slavery in general, which were obviously negative.

and his wife was mentally unstable.. which is the reason for the nagging deal.. she would often have outbreaks and do really crazy stuff..
