After seeing Assasins thread I decided to make this one to ask some of the veterans in here.

I am young(22) and I have a girl that I feel I could not live without

We are starting to talk about marriage but it seems like most marriages end up in divorce.

On top of that everyone tells me getting married at a young age will just end up in divorce sooner.

Any tips or advice would be great for me before I tie the knot.

Relationships end once they stop presenting challenges I think. Either you will get tired of her or she will get tired of you. Or one of you can possibly develop a problem or a new condition in life that the other doest care to cope with anymore. JMHO

Long lasting relationships are rare these days. But if you feel it, then go for it!

I would hope that you have been with her a MINUMUM of THREE years before deciding to tie the knot.

Don't think negative. One in every two marriage ends in that divorce these days. Doesn't mean you have to to be that one that divorces.

If you really love each other it will last no matter what. Your experiences are not like everyone else's. Follow your heart and mind.

Don't doubt you can spend your life with someone. My advice is talk to her about this. Don't mention the we wont last part, but maybe you need to ask her why you two should get married.

Ask yourself why you want her in your life for the rest of your life too.

My opinion is that couples have kids way too early.

To me it's like get married, enjoy the love and relationship you have your partner, and then have kids way later. It makes life easier and you enjoy each other.

If looks are important to you, then you will have a wandering eye as your girl begins to age and you notice the young hotties that always seem to be hotter than when you were young. 95% of women do not age gracefully. They get fat, saggy and then wrinkly. If you wouldn't do her mother right now then chances are you will lose the physical attraction to your girl as she gets older. This isn't a problem for everyone as love can do wonderful things to your mind.

as cliche as it might sound in this day in age, relationships are largely about communication. Instead of letting these thoughts perculate in your brain and make you worry, I suggest being honest about the fears you have with the woman you want to be with. Yes, it's possible it will come off the wrong way, but if she is really the woman you can last with she will appreciate the honesty and attempt at an exchange about this taboo, yet extremely important, topic. I just suggest not making a decision based on what other fellas tell you, or what other women tell you for that matter, it needs to be a conversation with her.

for a marriage to last a long time there needs to be a TON of give and take on both sides....

100 percent true. Best advice I have ever seen given here at the RX.

Lots of sacrifice to make a relationship work if you really love the person. That's for sure Dante.

Amen brother Amen.A friend once told me that just because a man's on a diet doesn't mean he can't look at the menu!!


I am fortunate to have a wife that looks better today than she did when i married her, i on the other hand am concerned that she will eventually dump my ass before she thinks it's too late for her to land another man.

Marriage is a mistake unless, of course, she's loaded. Can you guarantee that you'll have the same perspective at 32 that you do at 22? Or how about 42? 52? For the answer ask yourself if you have the same perspective now that you did ten, or even five, years ago. The answer, obviously, is no.

I have a friend who has been married for 25 years. She says that her husband isn't the same person she married 25 years ago. You never know what you're going to get.

Solid advice...


I would also add that you must live with her and go through bad times together (being piss-poor) for an extended time, atleast 3-4 years..

My wife and I seem to share a brain, it's almost scarey, that's when you know you have the right one.

You gotta be friends, fight, understand each other, and the such. Once you come to the certian understanding and common ground with each other everything else is small.

You gotta do more than expected.

I admit real love couples are hard to come by today, but you can't let the movies, TV, and all of that influence you and believe it is impossible.

Real people still exist out there. Just don't make a big deal of things. What I have learned from the woman I love.

Your 22 - you've been an adult for how many years - 1, 2 maybe 3 - your life hasn't even begun - if you want to get married when your 30 fine - until then try living your life - married at 22 is straight up white trash - aren't you in college now? I need to give you a good kick in your ass - at 22 all I could think about was new ass (not that anything has changed).

If you are fortunate enough to find the right woman, you will never get tired of being with her. In fact, over time, you will want to be with her even more. If you find yourself growing tired of your girlfriend, she will eventually become history one way or the other.

No more or less they get tired of you eventually. Its a two way street in the end and all about the level of commitment you want to put forth, regardless of the situation.

Don't confuse love with a good fuck...two different animals entirley....when you go both go out of "heat" and there is no passion just bitchin...if you don't have anything in common its a lost cause....the things that you tolerate about each other now,won't be tolerated later.
Put it this way...What do eggs benedict and a blow job have in common?
Two things you can't get at home.
