I've had a couple really bad bitchy psycho girlfriends over the years. I guess I learned from my mistakes, because I'm pretty good at picking wives.
At 25, 1st wife, 20/20 hindsight, I married too young. We knew it was a mistake right off, divorced in a year. No real big fights, communicated okay, just different people with different goals.
At 29, 2nd wife and mother of my son, I hit the wife jackpot, fantastic communication, few small disagreements, but overall things were great. Unfortunately she unexpectedly passed away at 39 from a blood clot that caused a heart attack. I thought my life was over.
At 48, 3rd wife was not planned, expected or sought out. She was someone that used to work for me that I just ran into one day. Married a year latter and I hit the fricken jackpot twice!! Two new step children were a big change, but we communicate great and have always talked things out when they come up. I feel guilty sometimes cause it almost works better than wife #2. The biggest thing that helped is we both knew what we wanted, so upfront we both set some ground rules and each insisted on some must haves in the relationship. We both stick to them with out fail. She had a bad 1st marriage and I have to deal with that sometimes, but over all not bad. We haven't had any real big fights and she never makes the little bitchy comments I see other guys wife's make.
I still can't believe how lucky I am in marriage.
