In all U.S. states except Mass., gay marriages are NOT legal. This means that gay marriages are “illegal”. The U.S. Fed. Govt. and State and local Govt.s have determined that many things are “illegal”, such as rape, murder, under-age drinking, drug dealing and so on. The justification for determining “illegality” is always based on harm, “harmful”, intent to harm etc.

So what the Govt. is saying is that “MARRIAGE” is harmful. It’s not the homosexuals who are harmful, it’s the activity of “marriage”. Therefore I plan to propose new legislation that would BAN all advertising, publications, newspaper announcements, television coverage etc. of any hetero marriage and marriage “paraphernalia” incl. wedding cakes, chiffon dresses etc. Just like the cigarette legislation.

A marriage may have plenty of happy and sad moments. During the sad moments, people will tend to have this questions of “How can I save my marriage” in their mind. However, if you avoid the problem and leave it as it is, the problem will worsen. This will affect your marriage and result into undesirable outcomes.

If you are uncertain how to go about solving your problems and keeping your relationship safe, you could look for many of the sources available in the world. For one, your family and friends would be there to give you advice from their own experiences. If you feel it is not enough, you could try going online and looking for sources that has relationship advices and problem-solving techniques. If you think that you want more professional help, marriage counsellors and psychiatrists are available to teach you and give you suggestions on saving your relationship.

If you believe that your relationship is worth it, then everything you do will be backed up with motivation. Love is one of the greatest emotions a person can have, and when you experience it, you could feel as if you are in heaven. Keeping your relationship would be for the sake of continuing this warmth and joy of being with your significant other. Thus, when you put yourself through the tedious work and thankless efforts that test your endurance, you know that the outcome will be worth it, and when you achieve it, the outcome becomes even sweeter.

Intimacy is one of the most powerful things that can hold a couple together. Being intimate can be shy and embarrassing but it gives the warmth and joy that few other things in the world can do. When you and your lover first started being together, the level of intimacy is still very high, and you would need to keep it high to try to maintain your feelings for each other.

Being able to understand each other is another important feature about a relationship that you two would need to know. Talk to your partner in a way that is clear and not misunderstood. A man and a woman are still very different even when they have come together as a couple, so when you are needing something from your partner, such as a night out for dinner, do make it clear that you want to go to a posh restaurant, otherwise you might end up going to the nearest fast food restaurant and eating with a bustling crowd instead.

If you have children, consider finding someone else to care for them sometimes so that you two could continue to maintain your own private world with each other. Your children will be important to you, and more attention needs to be given to them, more than even your spouse.

So consider arranging time and space for you and your spouse to continue the romantic world you two created and can continue to enjoy. It would be difficult to maintain it because of the many problems you two will surely face in life, but love and passion are there to help you two.

I have read lots of questions on here, from people against gay marriage and/or gay people just in general, basically just wanting people to agree with them. OK fine, i guess that is 1/2 of what this forum is about. But what i want to know is why when you disagree with them & state your opinion on whatever it is they asked, they automatically assume that you’re angry, defensive, not listening, etc etc etc?
What makes their opinions “just my opinions” & anyone who disagrees with them is either picking on them, being mean or in that whole angry, defensive, etc. category?
I just want to know why they can’t say they are “just expressing their feelings/opinions” & can’t accept that’s what others are doing as well?
BTW i am not gay, i am a bi woman, well not that either, i am a straight woman who happens to like to include a certain woman in some sexual activities. Put whatever label you want on that.
Basically i just believe in equality. OK done with my rant – have on with yours.
BTW i didn’t say anyone had to agree with the lifestyle, i said allow someone to have a different opinion and not automatically assume something about them becuase they do have a different opinion.
