a romantic IR love story that only happen on TV

If you want to see normalizing and subliminal messages

Read this months Time magazine. read the article on marriage and look at the article then holla back at me.
 
This one?

I just did a research paper on socioeconomic status and discipline and came across information about socioeconomic status and marriage as well. It was very interesting.

Anyway, my husband and I headed to the courthouse for our marriage. Neither of us are a fan of weddings. Celebrate us when we've been together 50 years. That's worth throwing a huge to-do for. Making vows that you may or may not keep? Two people in love when the getting along comes easy? Yeah, not worth the big deal we tend to make over them.

Allilyn I'm seriously not trying to insult you but you're coming off a little self centered and pompus. You make it sound like the couple in the article doesn't deserved to be celebrated but you do.

I didn't say anything about the couple in the article in my last post. I also said that we should be celebrated when we've made it 50 years. We're not there yet.

I'm a marriage and family therapist and perhaps I'm a little cynical because I've seen too much (and unfortunately I'm just getting started--I'll start working with abusive parents next and then I'll have a whole other soap box). But I've also seen people work to turn things around--those people should be celebrated. That work is hard. Way harder than falling in love or planning a wedding. Way harder.

Edited to add: I am sorry that I may be coming across harshly in this thread. And I'm also sorry that I have completely thread-jacked. I will move on.

In your opinion what makes marriage so hard? Money problems?

Why are you here? It's obviously not because of WW. You have the lowest possible opinion of WW, and even those that don't fit your ignorance based stereotypes aren't good enough, as evidenced by yet another hateful post. If nothing will ever fit your criteria, why bother even trying? I also don't know why you waste everyone's time by replying if all you have to say is negative things. What a depressing waste your life must be when you feel the need to come into an otherwise pleasant thread and try to degrade it with your jaded nonsense.

I'm just giving my opinion which is based in fact. Most broads gain weight after getting married. That's a fact. Also, I don't see why you guys are pretending that she's so pretty. She don't look like much to me. She might be pretty compared to most of the white American women who date/marry black dudes, but that ain't saying much. If anything, she looks like one of those women who's going to end up weighing 300 lbs before she's 40.

There is so much ignorance is this post that it's just astounding. I honestly don't know why you come here, you have nothing positive to say or contribute. I think in the entire time you've been a member you made maybe two posts that weren't hateful in nature. What a waste.
