You know why divorce is so expensive?

I'm approaching 17 years of marriage and I've learned one thing - I'm woefully unqualified to give relationship advice.

Some men you just cant reach...

All chicks are cool when you first meet them. No doubt this new one will be a "stupid bitch" before long.

What I'm about to say is guaranteed to piss some people off, but I can't tell you how much I laugh at the absolutely retarded shit I see on Facebook daily. A girl I know, was a lesbian. In an apparently bad relationship. They split, she moved back to Dallas, and for her first two weeks back in Dallas, every fucking day, she was complaining about the heart break, and how much it hurt. One week later, she's not only gone back to men, but she's head over heels in love with some guy. You don't fall in love in a week. You dont fall in love in 3 months, or even six. That's not love. It's lust, mixed in with a delusional mind and unhealthy codependency, and it's doomed for failure from the start. You can always spot these people, because they complain about their life every day. Ten they meet someone, and life is suddenly wonderful. "falling in love" so quickly is not only illogical and fake, but it's wildly irresponsible. People who can't be happy with themselves, and depend on someone else to make them happy, doom things before they ever start.

I'm not trying to be mean, I've just seen it happen to people I care about repeatedly. I wish y'all the best, but I know how this always plays out.

Well Said, couldn't have put it any better....Bravo!

I wont go that far. I don't want either one to end badly, or end at all, even if it means me being wrong. I'd much rather be wrong than see someone else go through hell.

I agree with you, i really hope for the best for you guys, it's just one of those "time and time again" things.

mutha fukin troof!!

Edit, Every relationship starts out wonderful... they all do, its a phase and once that's passed what will you do then? Woo effin hoo that you're all cuddly and touchy feeling right now....all we will see is that phase and it proves nothing. I'm calling that in a month both of these two will be on here posting about how horrible these new loves are followed by about 100 "I told you so's"

levi, i wish you nothing but the best man. But frankly, getting engaged less than a week after wrapping up a long and painful divorce seems like an extremely bad idea.

ashley summed it up when she said "until you actually have seen us together and know how we both are, you can't really give much advice."

Thanks for all the well wishes and all the criticisms.....they truelly are all appreciated.

I understand peoples concern, but until you actually have seen us together and know how we both are, you can't really give much advise.

6 months of living together and being her father every day is not just someone showing up. I take her to school and pick her up.....i make her breakfast lunch and dinner most days. I talked with Lauren and told her about a month ago that I planned on sticking around and that Evan could call me daddy if she wanted. She had accidently said it a few times and I could tell she really wanted me to stick around.

So, about 2 weeks ago, we asked her if she wanted me to be her dad. she said "you are my dad." so, she has been calling me that ever since. When i told her last night that i asked her mom to marry me, she was excited as hell. everyone that sees us together doesnt think for a second that she is not my little girl, because I love her like my own.
I told Lauren a few days ago that I was worried that if we did end up splitting up, I wouldnt be able to see her. She said she would never keep her out of my life.
I couldnt be happier.....unlesss maybe a fat check showed up in the mail with my name on it.

So many red flags and dead horses. Good luck to the three of you.
