    Instead of everyone worrying about Steve's lack of response or answering, just consider that maybe....just maybe, he entered recovery where they do not allow outside influence. (us)

    Remember, he got into this predicament by himself slowly and over the years. There is little we can do over the internet that will be to his benefit; that is, he has to do it for himself!

    If he wants, he'll get ahold of us. Until then, give him his space.

    I'm interested in all the sharing that is going on. And, I appreciate it.

    Relationships are hard. Many folks are not wired to be in "forever" relationships, and inviting the corrupt institutions of church and state into it, to accept the shift of power in outdated ways, still amazes me.

    Think twice, no, three or four times, before getting married. Ask, what is really in this for me, and what really is the other's motivation. Don't just do it because it's what's been done in recent times. If someone is really pushing for it, be especially cautious.

    I'm not sure I understand, could you rephrase above in different words for me?

    If you have assets (and are maybe even ugly with bad breath), and the one who wants to marry you has looks and no assets, and they are pressuring you to get married, look out!

    I've been blessed with no assets, a face and physique made for radio, with a rotten personality, to boot, so no one had ever wanted marry me. But, I've certainly seen my share of friends and family snookered into the terrible institution of marriage.

    You won't sucker me into "that" conversation, WW!

    I guess I know a lot of "radio personalities" that enjoy a good marriage.

    Easy Livin' 3000 sorry to hear your views regarding marriage. Going through a rough divorce is not fun, but it's better than the alternative.

    But in this case (S D Steve) it seems the bad marriage is a byproduct of the alcohol choice?

    The alternative, whatever it is, sounds way better!

    I have to comment since this thread sort of stopped at "no way I am getting married, because of the big "d". While I understand where that sentiment comes from and also have friends that share that view. Personally I think that is like saying I am not going out in the sun because it can end with skin cancer or since we are on FHC I am not going to cut firewood because I could cut my legs with the saw. They make sunscreen and chaps, there is also ways to protect and keep a marriage strong. The institution of marriage is not the cause of divorce anymore than breathing is the cause of lung cancer.

    Marriage really isn’t a bad decision...you just need to make the correct choice.
