Contemplative Wednesday

“It’s like being permanently tied to another person with a 20′ long rope. You can use the rope to rescue each other from dangerous situations or you can use it to strangle each other.

The choice is yours.”

- User pamsblog, from Reddit’s question on, “What is married life like?”

    Why is this an “or” statement. A real marriage requires both saving and strangling.

    Buck, an older gentleman I met the last time I went to the bar (I meet a lot of these people that seem like single-serving friends), told me that marriage is pretty much an exercise in figuring out what your wife wants and executing that plan.
