Same, after an afternoon at the pub followed by more drinks back home then come into work and our factory is at a stand still, I can't do any more of my work because I'm too far in front, I'd go home but I have to do one thing at 3:30 that takes about 5 minutes GRRR!

F*** me, I went to town on them after that, probably worth the $15 now.


Optus did that to me out of the blue a few months ago too.

F**kin scumbags. I too went to town on him.

There was no mention of it when I extended the bill.

A friend of my Mum and Step-Dad would be in his early 60's, he's open about having been miserable with his nutjob for over 20 years but simply can't be arsed getting out, too old, too hard, too complicated. He's willing himself to his grave to get out that way.

That, in the unlikely event, will not be me.

Exactly, life is too short to not get out what you put in.

A mate and his missus used to come over every Friday night and every Sunday afternoon, he'd bring a different 6 pack of craft beer each visit, he'd walk straight out my back, sit down and say "I hate that f***** hoe" every time.

She left him and he whinged like a bitch for a year.

Most of them couldn't see the forest for the trees, ignored advice/warnings from family & friends and now have kids which makes it even more difficult.

FYP

At least it is socially acceptable to get a divorce these days. Though as others have said, it becomes a lot more complicated when kids are involved

Kids can prosper in a split relationship, they end up spending "quality time" with their parents and then there's Christmas and birthdays etc.

Having two happy houses is far beneficial than one hostile one.

yep for sure. but having a couple of mates who only see their kids maybe one weekend a fortnight plus a bit more in school holidays, i can understand why someone might "put up" with a bad relationship to see their kids, even if that is detrimental to everyone involved

Although Divorce does seem an easy option to some these days.
Some people don't quite understand what: 'For better or worse actually means'.

Everyone deserves the right to be happy though!

There are some people I'm convinced that get married these days who don't actually believe in life long commitment. As the Judge says, life means life :)

It goes both ways indeed. I have lived it for a year.

Sometimes a particular parties anxiety and insecurity has merit, sometimes not.

For better or for worse is exactly that. You marry a person for all their brilliant and beautiful attributes. You marry them for their flaws.

Specifically- If someone has high levels of anxiousness and is insecure in the relationship. find out why and what you can do to help. Mental health is not easy for a person to acknowledge, and quite often knowing you suffer from anxiety further compounds the problem as you feel like a nuisance.

If you see your partner could use the help of a professional, guide them to such help and support them through the process. My best mate has suffered from crippling anxiety surrounding mortality (his dad passed suddenly when he was 19). His lovely wife has guided him through the process of seeing specialists, and he will freely admit that she puts up with a lot, such as mood swings and short temperament, but for better or for worse.

Not all situations are the same, even mine was very different. I wholeheartedly agree that if things don't improve, you are entitle to seek happiness for yourself. What I don't like seeing/hearing is people complaining that their partner is insecure, anxious, controlling, but when asked what they themselves understand about mental health- they are simply dismissive of the subject because in their eyes, that is their partner's/friend's/family member's problem and not theirs. That ****s me.
