    @Swaye @Thebourbinator , errr, I mean Mayor I’d Ding Dong City.

    Qualifier: I have never been fast strategy. Like Yella Piss I am slow strategy as fuck. I’ve never done blow or had my way with hookers. I’m a beer festival, drink whiskey neat, routine sex with one woman, take vacations and go to sporting events kind of guy.

    That said, marriage didn’t ruin my life. I feel like one of the few guys who ever says that, but I’m not miserable.

    I was with my wife 6 years before we got married. Been married for 2 years now. Nothing has changed for us. She didn’t turn into a monster, and we still do the same shit we did before.

    We are non-breeders, so maybe that’s the difference. Without kids our time isn’t completely taken up and we aren’t stressed and don’t argue.

    What I’m trying to say, is if you get yourself a cool ass chick, things don’t necessarily have to change. Or maybe I’m the fucking anomaly. My friends seem miserable, but they all started having kids. They love their kids and wouldn’t change it, but their marriage has changed over time.

    Either way, good luck doods.

    Children definitely change things for a lot of people. A lot of my friends are as described. The upside to my wife being in education is that she's already pretty much been a professional mom. We also get childcare benefits which is how we went out last night.

    My life as a dad, so far, has been mostly a cake walk from my relative view of other friends experiences. Simple things like knowing about sleep training (oh thank christ), teaching my kid to pick up her own toys at a young age, being well behaved in public, and not having to navigate the world of childcare products (the wife already knows every single item she wants I just sign the checks) have made things exponentially easier as a first time parent. Also, my wife has zero fear of taking our kid all kinds of places which a lot of my friends never go anywhere with their infants/ toddlers.

    Yours is a very unique set of circumstances which obviously you get. I also would add that with young kids boys can be more rambunctious than the girls- i.e., more energy to manage.

    True, but you and @BearsWiin have the advantage of spouses pulling down the cheddar. Education definitely doesn't pay the bills in California or even Seattle these days.

    This.

    I’ve never been married, but from my view in the cheap seats, marriage (or any type of relationship for that matter) can be what you want it to be, assuming you’ve picked the right partner and are both on relatively the same page.

    Hey man, just don't marry basic, and that goes for both sexes.

    I was out at Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphy's with the wife last night. The stoli is in the freezer and i'm getting ready for Sunday morning on Saturday morning.

    Married life ain't that bad.

    Except for swaye, he's doomed, the spirits have spoken.
    Love me some Dropkick Murphy’s.

    There will come a time you will remember fondly every crazy chaotic moment.

    That just means we're whipped and have no leverage. And I still have to go to a jerb and I dont live at the beach. Sad.
