Unfortunately it doesn’t mean they won’t be reproducing necessarily.

Nature still finds a way periodically. Still rooting for you guys to be safe! Each to their own, enjoy what you have while you still have it!

Don’t agree with your second sentences.

Social Media Danger
 

I was working with the assumption that if he is too self-centered to be married he sure as hell wouldn’t purposefully have kids.

And, yes, definitely to each their own. I’ve not once said his life choices were wrong yet he’s so sure of himself given his failure at marriage that it’s wrong for everyone.

You take every opportunity to attack the institution of marriage on this forum and yet I’m the one lashing out? That’s hilarious.

Yes, I’m trapped in a strong, wonderful marriage. I admit it’s not perfect by any stretch of the imagination; no marriage is. But, that’s why both people have to want, strive to make it better on a daily basis.

I’m truly sorry your marriage failed but going through life thinking about nothing but money and self sounds boring to me.

Good for you APC.
Agreed.Life is so much easier...and enjoyable....when shared with someone.

Being the Alpha Male of a pack of one is a lousy position to be in when the “troubled times” come.(and very few lives avoid troubled times)

That's Delta. Or AA or SWA in Phoenix. Lots of Mormons out in the east valley.

A lot of what you wrote is correct, except for this statement.

Any person who is "cheating" with another is not just hurting one family. He or she is affecting the whole chain of relationships that exist between the two. Husbands, children, family, friends often times work, financial and so much more. And these day the social media makes it even greater.

Nobody is an island and nor can they exist without others. It's who we are as humans. The egotist thinks others exist for their pleasure.

Wow, I thought this forum was all about aviation. Since the talk is basically about relations maybe it can switch to boats, cars or airplanes?

When you get a chance, google "Ted Talk Harvard Study". The gist of the 79 year study is that good relationships, marriage, family, community, lead to longer, healthier, happier lives. After 35 years of marriage, I'm ever more grateful that my lovely bride agreed to build a life and family with me. I am anything BUT miserable. Enjoy your solitude if that's what lights your candle.

I’ve been trapped for over 20 years. Paying for a larger house, cars, additional food, clothing, medical expenses, college tuition, etc. works out to a ton of money. I might have a bigger bank account, or better toys if I hadn’t done this to myself, but I’m a richer man because of it. It’s the same reason that I stay in the right seat. I can hold captain in every base, fairly senior in a few, but time at home trapped with my family is worth far more than a few more dollars per hour. If more people put in the time and effort to improve their marriages, they probably wouldn’t give up half their stuff.

One thing I am sure of. Don't take financial or relationship advice from pilots. Of this I am certain.
