I agree with you. We've been together 19 years and I don't think it's been hard at all. Oh, sure, sometimes LIFE got hard or threw us curve balls, but that's true of any life, single or coupled. It's never been work for us to stay together or continue loving each other. It's never been "work" to keep from growing…

"a lot of people don't have the judgement skills needed to not drag their kids into rebound raletionships while they are finalizing the end of their marriages"

Yea, but.... this almost seems like a punishment to women who marry. I see now why fewer young women even bother getting married. I think of a few of my nieces…

You're so right. Admittedly, I'm almost a little excited when I see these kinds of articles and I can reply, "WHO?!" because I actually don't know some of these shouldn't-be-famous types!

No, she never married the baby daddy. They were engaged but broke it off. This is a different guy. >Embarrassed that I know this<

I hope hope hope Jamie Lynn Spears takes his last name. Then they can both be named Jamie Watson. Is it too much to hope his middle name is Lynn, too (it happens)?

What IS her full time job, anyway? I'd always thought it was working in the fitness industry yet here she is denying it.

She's like the actresses who get hired by the weight-loss industry to lose a bunch of weight and then act like, "If I can do it, you can do it!" Except that their full-time JOB was to lose weight.…

I enjoyed the part where Jamie Foxx (reading the teleprompter) said that "stories with great scores will blow" before realizing he had more lines. "You mind." he then added. I'm rather surprised that these actors can't memorize the line or two needed to introduce the award they are presenting. Isn't their job to…

I don't think a naked boner is a huge turn on, and I don't find these pictures that sexy. But I love to look at underwear ads! The bulge in briefs (even if it's not a hard-on bulge) is exciting! Or just seeing my husband walk around in briefs is good enough. Or going into the men's underwear section at the store and…

I love a man who will do something nice for someone and not expect anything in return! Especially a guy who does something nice for a woman whom he isn't wanting to sleep with. It shows he's kindhearted and that's always a really attractive quality in a man.

I always wondered why people bothered with engagement rings, too! (I didn't.) Of course, I never believed in long engagements, either, which is why, as soon as we decided to get married we just decided ran off to the courthouse and did it.

I suppose one could also argue that we don't really need the wedding ring,…

I don't know that 99% of women want an expensive engagement ring or a huge wedding. Maybe it's just people in your social class? The whole keeping-up-with-the-jonses, thing, perhaps? Folks in my social class were too busy working and paying every-day bills to run up a five-figure cost of a wedding and engagement ring.…

I don't totally hate HIMYM. I've watched quite a few of them, because it's fun to spot the storylines they ripped off from other comedies from the past twenty years. And I found some of the episodes pretty funny.

Personally, I can't figure out how Big Bang Theory keeps getting renewed. They stole the joke…

Christie Brinkley is 60 and I'm sure her face doesn't naturally look 35. Point being, it IS possible to get "hotter" if the part that looks "bad" is the face. It just costs money.

Good. Maybe it'll burn some extra calories! Win!

My husband came home recently "complaining" that his belt is now too big and he had to cut a new notch in it until he finds a smaller belt. !!!!!! I wanted to hurt him. How did he lose weight? He hasn't even been trying! He hasn't been to the gym or anything lately. He…

he was sitting on the couch, eating chocolate-covered graham crackers dipped in vanilla pudding AND lecturing me about why I wasn't losing weight.

Not everyone has time to be a gym rat, though. Some people are working weird shift work or two jobs. they might not have money for a gym membership or a safe neighborhood to go walking/jogging in. Maybe they don't have a car to get to a gym or a park with a walking/jogging trail. So I just don't get how you "don't…

False equivalency! A random woman on a sitcom joking that, "I don't know how you men walk around with those things (external genetalia)!" is NOT the same thing as some specific woman telling you that you personally have gross, disgusting, ugly (etc) balls.

This conversation is about one specific man telling one…

The same is true about rich and taxes. They would rather more money go to the pockets of lawyers and politicians than a lesser amount of money go into the hands of someone they deem "unworthy" — ex-wives, ex-kids, poor, non-whites, etc. It's illogical and ridiculous.

Somewhere my brother-in-law is saying, "Wait, the kids leave home?" because he's had a hell of a time getting his grown children to move out. And he's not happy.

I can't stand when people think a marriage certificate is the only thing that makes a family. Here in the 21st century (I'm not sure what century you are living in) not everyone gets married, but they are still a family even without that piece of paper and many children grow up with step parents even when there is no…
