redthirst is redthirst, fifth Horseman of the Apocalypse. He was the leader of the Fires of Salvation, the only clan I'm aware of to get modded off the forums so hard they made their own forums.
Degenerate? Sure. Loudmouth? You bet. Law abiding? No ****ing way.
Great guy to have around? Hell yes.
I love the D...
My wife and I were friends for about six years before we started dating. (Disclaimer: I was married to someone else for most of those six years. That previous marriage was a complete mistake on my part. The previous marriage to that was even worse.) After we started dating, we had several serious talks about where we wanted our relationship to be: exclusivity, children, etc. We moved in together after about 10 months, and then handfasted for a year and a day. After that, we were engaged for one year while we planned the wedding and made preparations.Serious question for my married RedBros... How soon into dating your wife did you realize she was the one for you?
Do not get married without living together first. I cannot stress this enough. You need to know how you'll interact with each other on a day-to-dayInteresting post Helios. You're right that most people think negatively of it. I always wonder about this!I recommend living together before you actually get married. Most folks I know disagree with that on principle, but I've known a lot of couples who wouldn't have gotten married had they done so. I almost made the mistake of getting engaged, but after we lived together for six months I realized it wasn't the right choice.
A single guy that got dumped saying he is never getting married and blaming the establishment? That's a new one.I have to say I don't intend to get married (marriage/divorce/family law is FUCKED in the US, can't speak for anywhere else) but it might just be me enjoying being single after getting out of an almost 2 year relationship that went downhill the last couple months.
Of course if I met the right girl that would all change
Standard hobos who play budget garbage should be looked upon with suspicion.
It's not a necessity if you've talked out the expectations and such but having them stay over the night at least is probably a good idea.I recommend living together before you actually get married.

Me being newly single and not wanting to get married actually have little to do each other. I was pretty sure of the latter before the former occurred.A single guy that got dumped saying he is never getting married and blaming the establishment?

Son, I want you to know that no matter what happens between your mother and me, it's all your fault.
Lost me at Mrs. ScroatlesScrumper here! I am glad that we redbros can comfort each other when women hurt us. Too many of them overlook our male greatness and do not treat us with the respect we deserve.
What's wrong with getting married to a girl you just met? Redbros must live with unthinking passion if we are to feel alive. Even if our decisions make us fail and we wind up in this thread seeking hugs from our strong and chiseled brothers we must not stop blindly making impulsive choices! This is how I met the future Mrs. Scroatles this spring. Now we are engaged and about to have twins. Even if things fall apart and I get accused of being a dead beat dad, I know you red brothers will support me.

SM, you complete me.
That was your brother in law? Wouldn't your wife's brother WANT that to be your answer?Bottom line is, it's different for everyone. I was ready to get married, and my wife and I instantly clicked. For others, not so much.
I love that every time a Star Wars movie comes on, she immediately squeals with delight (original trilogy only, of course). We both laugh at the same silly shit. She's not high maintenance, and hates drama. She had some baggage, but everyone does. We hashed it out, and it made us a stronger couple.
A normal marriage will never be perfect. Marriage is a daily compromise, and it needs continual attention so you don't lose that balance. If one person is compromising more than the other, something is wrong and it needs to be
addressed. I think the fact that both my wife and I are easy-going and willing to set aside our ego's for the benefit of our relationship is a major factor in why we have a successful marriage.
I remember my brother-in-law once tried to say that I was whipped. And not in a joking manner. I simply told him that "if being whipped meant actually loving my wife and enjoying her company, then I guess I'm whipped. But that sure as hell doesn't mean I can't whip your ass." It was funny. He had no idea how to respond to that.
Son, I want you to know that no matter what happens between your mother and me, it's all your fault.
Wait, is he still my brother-in-law if he's my wife's sister's husband? So my sister-in-law's husband. I'm now thinking that isn't the case. Regardless, he's a doucheThat was your brother in law?

You do need to try to gay it up a little more.
You're like the least gay member of this clan.
And that's counting the fact that you voluntarily have sex with men.
Yeah, that's a recipe for disaster because no human being can keep that up for more than a year or two before they collapse.You have to be comfortable with you if you want a marriage to work. And having seen several friends make the same mistakes and they involve one of the people compromising a key part of themselves for sake of the relationship.
