[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 284199, member: 13254"] IMO, the secret to any long term relationship is realizing that every thing is not about [B]ME[/B]. Both parties must know that fact. Now having said that, my first wife and I divorced after 33 years. been single now for 7 years. As someone said earlier, sometimes you get to the point you just can't live with someone any longer. The only way that UP$ contributed to the big D was the amount of money that I made. The higher income fostered a spend now pay later attitude that caused only a small portion of our problems. I do not now nor did I ever feel hate for my EX. Since the D, I have been at her house for every Thanksgiving, Christmas eve and day plus for family birthday parties. We get along fine and she just loves my "lady friend" that I plan on marrying this March. Heck we may even have the wedding in the Exes back yard. One of our mechanics has been divorced 3 times in the 23 years I have worked @ UP$. I think that the biggest problem for his lack of success in matrimony was the fact he worked nights, all of his Exes were caught messin round. Naw, this is one aspect of life that I can't blame on UP$. It's how you handle stress and adversity that makes a difference. One's job/ career should not define who you are, just what you do to make living expenses. [/QUOTE]
