asharin Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Well, wouldn't have predicted that my marriage wouldn't last a year We separated back in February, which knocked me for six for a while.But now after a little time to get over it, and a little fun messing around on Tinder, I have a new girlfriend woo Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Chin up again then.is she a 'biker' and will you both be at the Rally? Quote
Whitey1984 Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 Nice one, can be difficult coming out of a marriage, i was married for 6 years and my ex decided to cheat on me, i found out. Went for a drink with a girl about 4/5 months after I'd split from the ex and we've been together for nearly 3 years and are engaged. I was only looking for a bit of fun Quote
Fozzie Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Separation after 1 year?Was it not a fixable problem at all?Marriages shouldn't be given up on without careful consideration is all I'm thinking. If you were just disconnecting then fair enough but if there were issues, they can always be fixed... Unless one of you is a bit of a psycho Oh well, at least life is on the up. But given you got together with this girl quite quick after a previous marriage, you should consider keeping things non serious for a while. Quote

Epic Earl Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Glad to hear things are on the up, my first marriage didn't last 3 years. But at least I'm happier now Quote
Fozzie Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 Glad to hear things are on the up, my first marriage didn't last 3 years. But at least I'm happier now When you say 1st? Which are you on now? Marriage makes no sense to me in some regards. So many people pretend it changes nothing, then when these people break up many become bitter and angry proving otherwise. Similar to this, people make plans for life prior to marriage, then something changes and they don't feel they need to after. It's an age old joke, a man will become fat and secluded to his chair in front of the TV even if he was fit and active before!For something that is just a piece of paper, it seems to do something to people Quote

Epic Earl Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 I'm on my second marriage, hopefully my last! I'm the old fashioned type and believe in a marriage. Unfortunately due to the ex working at it wasn't an optionand sadly with children involved I'll have to have contact with her for the foreseable future but hey ho Quote
KTM21 Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 we checked our family history and no were not inbredlol Quote
rennie Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 I am in the process of getting divorced for the first time,then I intend to get married again when finances allow. Lets try to keep this thread friendly and reasonably light hearted please people! Quote

Unfortunately due to the ex working at it wasn't an optionand sadly with children involved I'll have to have contact with her for the foreseable future but hey ho I do believe it in... It's actually people I have shakey faith in.You get two sorts of people I notice, those who get married and want to slow down, and those who see it as a new beginning for something bigger. Both are valid ways of thinking, but when one or the other changes direction, it seems to send things downhill quite quickly. I wonder how I will change! Quote
asharin Posted May 23, 2015 Author Posted May 23, 2015 I was willing to try and make it work. She wasn't. Cheating on me twice is one way to convince me to stop trying Quote
GazzyG Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 I'm on my second marriage now.Got married the first time round way too young. This time round itsw going swimmingly and couldn't ask for a better relationship. Quote

Cheating on me twice is one way to convince me to stop trying Yikes She's shown you're better without though Being on the receiving end of someone having enough is rough. But better in the long run if you're level headed!If you'd called time on it, there was a bigger chance of her self-destructive nature being aimed at you.So onwards and upwards Quote
