I concur 100%! My wife and I have been married 10 years, and it hasn't been fun and games the entire time, but seperation/divorce is not an option. Whatever differences arise, we are committed to work them out.michel said:...marriage, like everything else in life is 5% inspiration 95% perspiration - the trouble, as I see it, is that folk aren't 'into' the perspiration bit anymore.![]()

Det heter "äktenskapsförord" för oss svenskar. Se här för mera info Anders: http://www.sjolund.net/forord.htmanders said:Thanks, Maize. It seems like they may be needed in the US. In Sweden, most of it is taken care of by law and wills, but similar agreements occur here as well, especially if one partner is much wealthier.
Oh how I hate modern phraseology - but I'm going to use it all the same. I 'know where you're coming from' (To which my wife usually comes back with - and I know where you will be going, if you carry on using those phrases!), but I am just that little bit concerned at your "if you don't accept it as a possibility, the tough times are so much easier " - I am perfectly happy with "It never even entered my mind that our marriage would not last" but in the first sentence "If you don't accept it as a possibility" - treminds me of the way to approach alcoholism - and I suppose drug addiction - but I have known many alcoholics but few drug addicts.Terrywoodenpic said:I think prenuptial agreements a horrible Idea, but not a surprising one considering the litigious age we live in.
I do not even believe in separate bank accounts. If you can't trust the one you love, why marry? the most important thing in marriage is trust.
If you marry for sexual attraction only it is sure to fail.
It never even entered my mind that our marriage would not last. if you don't accept it as a possibility, the tough times are so much easier . The problems become our problems not someones fault.

I personally prefer the I cannot ever forsee it happening, and I would hope that it won't happen - I'll try as hard as I can , but, if things do go wrong...........
A valid point ?
