Reality of marriage for guys?

**Danny Tse** · 07-20-2005 05:27 PM

Saw this on another forum. Before marriage....

After marriage....

**Mike682** · 07-20-2005 05:33 PM

Excellent!

:D :D :D :D

**Shizelbs** · 07-20-2005 05:38 PM

Thanks. 10 days before my wedding. Thanks.

**HK-POLK MASTER** · 07-20-2005 05:38 PM

That is surely true coming from a recently divorced father.

**jet2001** · 07-20-2005 05:42 PM

After 4 years of marriage, I'd say that is pretty accurate.

Shizelbs, don't worry, it'll be quick and painless. j/k

**Mike682** · 07-20-2005 05:44 PM

The 2nd pic is a perfect example of why we like nice and loud audio systems....heheh

Reminds me of the commercial with the football ref getting chewed out on the field by one of the coaches and the commentators are asking, how does he do it, he doesn't seem bothered? After the question, you see the ref getting chewed out by his wife....oh! that explains it..

:D

Before mariage is the bait, marriage is the trap.

Hey, your'e getting married on the same day as my brother! :)

**Ron-P** · 07-20-2005 06:02 PM

Yet another reason to have the lock to that man-cave on the inside of the room.

**AsSiMiLaTeD** · 07-20-2005 06:16 PM

not for me. Maybe it's the fact that I've only ben married or maybe I'm just lucky and have a great wife!

**Burnzy** · 07-20-2005 06:37 PM

Yep...that pics explains everything.

Before marriage your name is Mr. Right after, all of a sudden, you name has changed to Mr. Wrong.

But if we know this ahead of time, why do we walk down the isle? Kinda like "Dead Man Walking." And don't even give me that "Oh, it won't happen to us" BS either. I can't tell you how many times I've heard that one before a guy got married (including my own).

I could go on about a few more items as well.

Why does the bride wear white and the groom wears black?

It's her wedding and the grooms funeral.

**disneyjoe7** · 07-20-2005 08:24 PM

Pictures say 1000 words.

Love it. :)

So the dishwasher matches the rest of the appliances......

Do you know about the three rings of marriage?

The engagement ring, the wedding ring and the suffering.

Congrats and good luck Shizelbs. The wife and I are going on 30 years. Life is what you make of it.

**PolkThug** · 07-20-2005 10:58 PM

Shizelbs, milk the bachelor party for all its worth, or else you'll regret it after your first divorce. ;)

**nadams** · 07-20-2005 11:18 PM

I'd hate to think that you guys really do take marriage so lightly. Decide that the person you're marrying is the person you want to live with for the rest of your life, BEFORE the wedding. Avoid the messy and expensive divorces...

**Shizelbs** · 07-20-2005 11:20 PM

Does Polk Audio have a registry? :)

The party is going to involve beer, golf, beer, M's game, beer, beer, and who knows after that. Yes, in that order.

**ninerbj** · 07-21-2005 10:56 AM

Sure, the sex is less frequent...and after a few years of marriage your opinon is moot, but the thing that bothers me the most is the lack of intrest in looking good for each other.

Putting a ring on a womans finger is like pulling a rip-cord on a raft.

disclamer: "I love you honey, and I don't think your fat."

**HK-POLK MASTER** · 08-03-2005 10:16 PM

Thank is the most accurate thing you can say. I am recently divorced and my EX had it all planed about 6 months before it happened and what really irritates me is that she got the kids and she makes a whole lot of money atleast 5 times more than me and I pay child support not much but i do pay it on time every 5th of the month and all she can do is cry cry cry about not being able to pay the bills or food for the kids and she gets over 400.00 in food stamps and her self employed business and the support checks she gets from me. and her bills are half of what she is bringing in. so you all tell me what in the H*** is going on over their. It is just another evil nasty woman that is exerciseing her god forsakeing womens rights and to take advantage of the system in order to make the male species suffer.

**dorokusai** · 08-03-2005 10:32 PM

A very old and wise, extremely foul mouthed, old friend told me that once you start hearing elevator music while your wife is screaming at you....it's time to ask for the check.

**Polkersince85** · 08-03-2005 10:58 PM

Been There, Done That, Lost My T-Shirt.

**Frank Z** · 08-03-2005 11:25 PM

Sounds like some of you men haven't grown up fully. Getting married was the smartest thing I've ever done.

Flame away.....

**Willow** · 08-04-2005 12:38 PM

**steveinaz** · 08-04-2005 12:52 PM

My "x" was a hell-bitch. My new wife is a dream. Just shows you how different it can be.

I"m sure MOST of the guys in here are just kidding. It's better to have someone in your life that you care about rather than the alternative of being single. Being single can be lonley at times..

I think a lot of guys can identify with the above pictures.. because it's true to some degree. Women tend to "soften" guys up some. Really, who wears the pants in the family? Your spouse, right? Admit it guys. They keep you from buying a new pre amp or other item every 6 months. :p and having a whole house full or gear.

Maybe that's true.

I've never heard a woman complain about her husband keeping her from buying a new wardrobe (and accessories) every six months or keeping her from having a whole house full of shoes (most of which she never wears).

I have certainly never seen an eBay auction where a wife was selling off some jewelry or diamonds because "the husband says they are too big and have to go". :p

**Ron-P** · 08-04-2005 02:28 PM

I am coming up on 14 years of taking the vows and my wife and I dated for 5 years before that. I wouldn't change things even if I could.
