    Don't know what you want to express- almost everyone knows couples that are happily married for 30+ years, but that doesn't say anything of your own experience. Have you been married? Are you actually married? If both NO, just shut up - you don't know how it is .. If YES, you don't have to referr to other People; just stay for yourself And- it is signed as a joke, anyway

    I'm not sure what I did to invoke this vicious response. :confused: All I wanted to say is that I'm in the happy position not to perceive what you originally posted. And no, I'm not married (not that this has any relevancy to your OP). If what you posted somehow has some relevancy to your own live maybe you should have declared it a little bit more verbose. You see, by my response I did in no means try to belittle you or try to put you down. If I did so, I want to apologize. I just thought that it was another post about divorce rates. If this touches you and your life rest assured that my response was posted in absolute ignorance of that fact. What I posted though still is what I believe even though I cannot prove it trough long lasting marriage (and bringing up kids etc. ). I'm sorry if I've somehow hurt your feelings, but I couldn't anticipate that from your original post. Regards,

      Wow, just wow! That must mean I'm one of the privileged persons to know people that don't have this shortcoming. Maybe it has something to do with being brought up in a time when we were taught to fix things instead of just throwing them away. Cheers!

            Well - it seems we're both from Germany, so we could possibly communicate in germa language more exactly, but 'cause this is an international Forum let's try it in UniLang (aka English). It was never my intent to hurt or indslt you; my comment was about

            That must mean I'm one of the privileged persons to know people that don't have this shortcoming

            This implied that it isn't your own experience of beeng married, and that's what I've tried to express. Sorry for any inconvince, that wasn't intended !

                I'll let it rest at that. Sometimes there may be some misunderstanding because of language differences. Have a good night, Manfred

                        Errors can be repeated in so many ways. Let's just hope Mike didn't marry and divorce the same woman twice. Cheers!

                                    I made that mistake unfortunately, the post on facebook about the can dispenser is my ex-wife (the one I married twice) and although I am civil to her I consider her a crazy bitch and was going to leave a smart ass remark but I have to control myself because my children are also in our friend circle.

                                        True, but back then I was inclined to try the impossible - it seemed the honourable thing to do and all that.

                                          I made that mistake unfortunately, the post on facebook about the can dispenser is my ex-wife (the one I married twice) and although I am civil to her I consider her a crazy bitch and was going to leave a smart ass remark but I have to control myself because my children are also in our friend circle.

                                          I don't think you are to shame here Mike. Sometimes things don't run like we expect, but giving a relationship a second chance even after a divorce is for me more like a sign of hope instead of defeat or resignation. So it didn't work out, what the heck, nobody can say you (and that includes her as well) didn't at least try. Cheers! :thumbsup:
