I felt I should offer my comments and feelings after reading these blogs. I'm a single, nevermarried male 48 years old with a professional job, nice home, and investments. I've never been in love or know how you get there. Consequently, I've never been married and don't have children. Much to my mother's dismay, none of her three children had successful marriages or gave her any grandchildren. It has become evident that just saying no to the entire marriage, parenthood, church scene saves me countless problems in life. Marriage and parenthood can't possibly be that good. I was raised in a christian home with a Baptist deacon father and a Sunday school teacher mother. They did well, but after watching my peers struggle with their marriages, schools, and divorces I decided to throw the entire game in the trash can. Good move on my part. Spouses and children aren't worth the trouble.

A good, positive article. Women should appreciate the good men that they have. Treat them with respect and kindness and they will respond.

Around my 9th year of marriage I really resented my husband to the point I couldn't stand to even look at him. I read a book that pointed out how women get together and bash their husbands and instead we should find the positive things and talk about those qualities. I started only talking positive about my husband and wouldn't let anyone else talk negative about him either. With in weeks I started feeling a difference. We just celebrated our 25 wedding annivarsary and he is my very best friend. It really works. You can dwell on the fact that he throws his underwear on the floor or you can dwell on how your car is always safe to go in because he keeps up the maint. on it.
