I was married to a very lovely woman. It was the best 18 years of my life until cancer took her. I still miss her terribly. It took 15 years of dating dozens to find her. I anticipate it may do the same before the next one is found. That is okay. I am patient.
Yes, i still believe in a marriage and family life and its traditional values. Even its a bit hard for me to start again but im not give up or loosing hope. Someday my prince will come .
jac_the_gripper: I have family, but I've never been married.
It pisses me off when people think the two are mutually exclusive.
My daughter was fifteen before someone referred to us as a family.
We were both overwhelmed and deeply moved by such a small, but pertinent recognition.
Family is so much more than you suggest here in this thread.
I’m not the best communicator but I’m really shocked at your response, Jac, because my op states just the opposite of what you suggest I suggest....”How many still believe in Marriage and Family life, like Ozzie and Harriet portrayed on tv?”
They probably got along so well cause they slept in different beds ost of the time.
Ozzie and Harriet Nelson are a little confusing. Their show, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet ran 1952-1966. We saw them with both twin beds and on occasion a double bed. A Day in Bed, Season 4, Episode 21, airing March 23, 1956 shows that they had a double bed but we don't necessarily see them in it.The most his wife does is sit beside him.
Me too And i think " Family " is not specific people who having a blood line or biological connection with us, but people who care for us love us uncondionally and understand us and be with us in happy and sadness time, when we in trouble their presence make us strong. I can say my best friend also is a part of my life, they are ny family too
with transparency and honesty, find the type of relationship that matches. and be committed to the relationship rather than committed to self. what you focus on is what you get. looking within the relationship or looking outside the relationship will inform one of their intentions.
If people took a minute of their time to ask themselves "How do a I make my partner feel?" there would probably be more happy relationships. We do take it all for granted like Len said...and that often becomes the shallow excuse when we've messed up everything...

I don't have to ask myself how I made my partner feel. She always lets me know.

I believe in marriage and family life....altrough for now I am ' married to my daughter' It reminds me of funny American comedy 'married with children.' I am not too keen to have someone, more out of fear that possible relationship with significant person may take me away from my only (grown up) child that needs me...so I choose motherhood over man.
