And "re-partnered," if there was such a word!I haven't figured out the secret to a happy marriage, which is why I'm ever-so-happily divorced.

Well said. I think I could be happy with many different women, as long as they go home fairly often, and almost all of our relations are consensual- ie no one has coercive or state-backed power over anyone else. Remember college when your date came in on a train, then left on a train a few days later? Que bueno!I think it was supposed to be a HAPPY marriage.

I was happily married for a long time, until I discovered the downside of that particular arrangment. Not that particular woman, who was as good as most and better than many; just that particular arrangment.

Ha

Anything is possible, but I think I just like cute fine-smelling women who enjoy eating oysters and drinking Champagne.Ha , You are already going down a slippery slope . Last year you were seeing a few women now you seem to have one who you take for champagne & oysters and buy expensive perfume . If I were to place a wager it would be that you would be in a live in situation with in two years and happily .
I rather like men, but would sell a kidney before getting married or even living with someone.
Three words: "You're right, dear."
My dad told me the secret to a happy marriage: Compromise; do it her way.
Also, don't assume you will change anyone with time. You won't.
Hmmm...well, it's only taken 25 years, but he has changed several things, and I guess I have, too.
Do these changes involve a redistribution of body mass or a loss or graying of the hair? We've noticed a few of those kind of changes here......
