The secrets to a long and happy marriage (for you blokes)

Way back in 1970 I married for the first time ... it lasted eleven months and my first wife was pregnant.I started seeing someone else who I used to go out with at school and this year we are into our 43rd of marriage.
When my daughter from my first marriage told her Mum that she wanted to meet (I consented to allowing my first wifes husband to legal adopt my daughter, she is now 46) I was a bit apprehensive as to what type of reception I would receive.
I shouldn`t have worried as my daughter sends birthday cards to her second lot of "brothers and sisters" and my second wife treats her like her own.I have two wonderful grand daughters and strangely my first wife and myself get on great.
Only downside to my second wife,is that she`s a Rag, but more of a sympathiser than a fan.Oh come on we all have our faults.
Marriage is what you make it,with a bit of give and take from both sides.

What a pile of shit. Marriage is a wife sentence.
To the young Blue Mooners, my advice (after being married twice and not currently) is to spend your money on City, beer and The Smiths & Morrissey back catalogue. That is all you need.

I can see why you've been divorced twice.
 
A mate of mine told the tale of his dad's only piece of advice about life:
"Just remember, son, that women get their orders from outer space."

Sympathising we can allow - just don't go empathising with those Swamp Donkeys.
 
I found the best thing for a long marriage is to keep my fucking head down, and not get involved in any dramas.
