Sorry but I find this thread a lil humerous and pathetic at the same time.

I was married to a wonderful woman for 28 years. You can't stop the aging process, there are ways to slow it down, eating healthy, exercise, a non-stress filled enviroment !

If all you are concerned about is what she's goin to look like in 20 years.....
nevermind dude ! You're not ready to get married !

Just my Dos Centavos !

 

<My Opinion>
I have found that physical beauty only accounts for about half or less of a woman's overall beauty.

If her personality, heart and spirit is beautiful to you... she will never change in your eyes.

My wife is not a super model or 'knock out', but I think she is more beautiful than some '10's I've met.

She has a spirit that just lights up a room.

Communication is the single most improtant attribute of a woman. If you can't communicate, you will probably have arguments later on.
</My Opinion>

Take what you need... leave the rest...

I'm 53, have 2 grown kids both outta the house & have been married for 32 years; same woman. A great woman. Who keeps wanting to swipe my car & sometimes succeeds 'cause she well, like, threatens me. That's how they do it, by the way: they F with your heads. But that's another subject altogether.......
You've got to remember that you get old, too......& if things go right in 30 years it don't matter so much anymore. Put yourself in her shoes: you ain't gonna look much better in 30 years, either.
Honestly & seriously, My wife has stuck with me through all the crap that can happen in a lifetime, accidents, kids, financial fun & games, surgeries, scars, deaths, too many now that I'm getting older, parents, relatives, absolutely all the stuff that can happen in a lifetime. She was once a slender, lithe, innocent girl........I've watched her grow into a mature, responsible, loving, motherly, "please put on your **** clothes, baby" kinda woman, everything you thought it could & couldn't be. THAT'S worth the price of admission, gentleman: that's what you can look forward to. It can be a great ride & I'm a lucky guy!
'Course, I know folks who have been divorced 3 times & finally found someone to stick it out with. Who knows, sometimes it takes more than one! BUT, if you've found the near-perfect woman (there isn't perfection anywhere in the human race. Forget about ever finding the "PERFECT" woman/man) then perhaps it's time to take a chance.
Trust me, I'm no eunuch, I'm not whipped, I've F'ed up many a time.....I'm a guy, that's what we're great at!
But then again, that's just me & my opinion. It's worked for me, I'm happy.
Trust Doc. Kurt.
I'm cheap.
Now go spend your money on a mod. or two.

 

re: the above

now THAT was inspirational.

 

Ha! How true Doc!

Who needs Dear Abby when you get the great advise of someone like you in this great forum!

 

........I'm telling you....this winter is really getting to me. I need to get out.......

 

I am soo touch.
I respect that perspective view too, Doc Kurts.

 

no guy should go on that show willingly.

 

Scott Baio is no one to take advice from...unless you want to know how to revive a dead acting career.im not even sure he's going about it the right way!

 

Amen Kurts... amen.

Spoken like a truely blessed individual. Rock on my friend!

 

We are tired of waiting to drive our cars-talking is as close as we can get around here.
Marry or not??
Let your future Mrs. know about your worry- she will resolve the problem for you. How easy is that?

 

The girl or the beer belly?

 

Marry a Filipino, they look forever young. That's what I did.
