Well said, Amos. I think you are right in what you say. And you too, Stilly.

Stilly said that "A guy around the house is like having another teenager here."

Yup! ;-D Often as not, that's pretty much what it's like, allright. Most men go on being boys (to some extent) for the rest of their lives.

Now, for those of you like Rap and Amos who have found a longterm marriage that worked well...good for you! You were either lucky...or you had what it takes...or both. I can't say. I never figured I was cut out for a traditional marriage, not at any age. It just wasn't what I was looking for.
