Marriage

-A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.

-Marriage is a three ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring, suffering

-Before marriage, a man yearns for the woman he loves. After marriage, the "y" becomes silent.

-When a newly married couple smiles, everyone knows why. When a ten-year married couple smiles, everyone wonders why.

-My girlfriend told me I should be more affectionate. So I got two girlfriends.

-A husband said to his wife, "No, I don't hate your relatives. In fact, I like your mother-in-law better than I like mine."

-The honeymoon is over when the husband calls home to say he'll be late for dinner and the answering machine says it is in the microwave.

-A man said his credit card was stolen but he decided not to report it because the thief was spending less than his wife did.

-Love is blind but marriage is an eye-opener.

-The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once.

-Boring husband: Honey, why are you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?
Bored wife: Because I married the wrong man!

-When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing: either the car is new or the wife.

-Before marriage, a man will lie awake all night thinking about something she said. After marriage, he will fall asleep before she's finished talking...

There is no way of knowing what it is all about until you take that big step. Once you do it and live it, then you can laugh and understand where everybody else is coming from. I got married and within one year I got her behind the wheel of a Ford. We traded in the Honda. Seven years and two kids later, she's still driving a Ford. Lol. I have no complaints. Things are very good. Paulie, best of luck. It is a good thing to do. Jake.

Here's a few more:

Marriage is a real institution! (so is an insane assylum)

Son: "Dad, how much does it cost to get married"?
Father: "I don't know son, I'm still paying for it"!

First guy: "My wife is an angel".
Second guy: "You're lucky, mine's still alive"!

Son: "Dad, is it true? I heard that in some countries, a man doesn't know his wife until he gets married"?
Father: "That what happens in most countries, son"!

All in fun, of course! I would definately do it again. Marriage is a beautiful thing when you find the right person! (And they don't change on ya! ) Way to go BillyB! And best of luck to the future Mr. and Mrs. Paulieg69!

Build your marriage on a solid foundation of honesty and trust, always communicate, put 150 percent of yourself into it, and don't forget to have fun along the way!

Well I didn't do it right the first time so I can't give advise but Jake can tell you my wife is in a ford!!! LOL She has the fastest one in the bunch (for now) She is wonderful and would give anything for me and I would give anything for her. We went out together in 1978 she went away to colledge in upstate NY I figured I would never see her again and ended up getting married well after 18 years of hanging in trying to make it work I finally gave up. My present wife and I got back together after all that time (she never married) and we got married and life has been great ever since we each give more than we take and would go to the ends of the earth for each other and it works!!!

There are two times in a man's life when he dosen't understand women: before marriage and after marriage.

Why is it a woman will spend $1 on a $2 item she dosen't need, but a man will spend $2 on a $1 item he does need.
