Sure, it happens. But that's what marriage counselling is for. In any case, it's far from typical.

Precisely. I don't know why some people think that married couples don't have sex or not enough sex. In many cases, it's the exact opposite.

He didn't use it singularly. He used the plural "know." He didn't say, "They knows they should fuck you."

If you choose option two I guarantee you will be loving your life, at least for awhile

But come near the age of 40 when your looks begin to fade the girls will to. And when your dying in the hospital, unless you die from some STD, you will look around and see that no one is there, that no one cares. You'll have no kids around you to carry on your name and after you die. Kids will see your grave and say, "Who's that?" And not one person will know or care.

I've also seen what marriage becomes. I saw at the end of my grandmothers life, my grandfather, having been married to her for over 55 years, holding her hand every minute. I saw all her children and her grandchildren around her, caring for her. I saw her smile and my grandfather, who had been tough as nails until that moment. From the mouth of my Grandfather, "For over 55 years I was married to a woman I didn't deserve, and fostered 4 wonderful children. I lived the American Dream. And I wouldn't trade a second of it for anything. I lived a close to perfect life. And I thank God that I was blessed enough to do so."

Now I don't care if you believe in God or not, its not the point. The point is if you could choose, choose number 1. Because in the end, you won't regret it.

Precisely. I don't know why some people think that married couples don't have sex or not enough sex.

I think it's some combination of "man bites dog" and "sour grapes".

Look at it from the standpoint of a typical unattached young man, unsure about his social standing and ... prowess. He gets lucky, what... every month or so? Much better to brag to his buddies about that and say rude things about married men than to admit to them that this isn't the life he wants. (I'm not gonna confirm that I was that guy once, so let's just say I sympathize pretty strongly with the wanna-be young stallions. ;) )

Could be. My only contention is the proclivity to believe such tales, you know. How can we form an informed opinion of something we haven't experienced? How do we really believed stories about, say, how bad sex is in marriage, if we don't have the facts? :)

I'm not saying some married couples experience problems of the sort the OP is speaking about. They're just not the norm.

That's actually the proper usage of the singular form of "they".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they


That's not singular grammatically. And it is proper: plural pronoun with a plural verb.

Know = plural
They = plural.

So that is plural usage.

And I don't exactly look up to Wikipedia for grammar rules.

Edit: But none of this matters.

Well, I can say that if these were my only to option, I would choose option 2. however, since I live in a reality outside of the hypothetical world, I would prefer to man-whore until im about age 30, then try and find a meaningful relationship with a girl. I would have one kid with her, but would try to keep us together without actually being married.
