from Beach Elvis,

It's been said that a marriage is hard work. I submit (and this opinion I only apply for myself, not anyone else nor their relationship.)
that marriage is only hard work when it's bad.

I totally agree, if you have to work at it the relationship, either marriage, work-mates, or "friends" is NOT good.

At the same time if you live with anybody for any length of time after a month or so, differences of opinon will occur. It's how you offer them and respond to them that tells you whether or not there is "respect" in the relationship.

The War Department and I occassionally fight, but we fight fair.

The best advice I got when I was divorced was: "Find someone the next time who THINKS like you do." It worked for me so far.
