    This is the married and looking thread, right?! Haha
    Nope. Married and chatting.

    you can look at this thread however u want to look at it...some are here who are not fully satisfied with their married life or something is missing in their life...some are here in general to make friends who are married and in the same boat....

    its however one wants it to be....only you are the true judge of yourself...

    So it can be a place to recruit people for the group play session in the hot tub?

    What's pretty ironic (although I'm not judging individuals) is that unhappily married people would come to this thread; like if you're unhappy in your marriage, wouldn't you lurk the singles thread?

    Single is way different than unhappily married

    My point was, if you're unhappy and looking for attention/conversation...one would think you'd subject yourself in a thread that has singles (if you're after a new catch), not subject yourself to a majority that is married and presumably happy, as this thread is intended for married chit-chatters which inadvertently implies happily married.

    Hi, all I am a married stay at home mother with three kids from Southern Indiana. I guess you could say we live the 1950's style life. I cook, clean , take care of the kids and he works takes care of the yard. That may make us sound old but we are not we are both in are early 30's and love life we just like to keep things simple. But, for me as a stay at home mother things get boring at times I get tired of the same old rinse and repeat of life. It seem's like I am always doing the same things. Are there any other stay at home mom's or dad's that deal with this what do you do, how do you change things up, and still stay on budget?
    In the summer we get pool passes so it changes a little we go daily unless it rains and we also visit different parks in the area, as well as any free things that may be going on we do them as well because hey it's free and free is good. LOL. What do you do with your kids that is cheap an easy to do crafts such as that? My kiddos also go to church camp so that is a plus....

    My husband and I are both 21 and also live this way. He pays the bills, I take care of the house and baby. I like it that way tho! I'm a clean freak so I couldn't sit back and just watch him clean anyway lol unfortunately I haven't found anything other than going to the park to switch up the same old routine yet :/

    i dont think singles can ever understand whats it like to be married...hence y sometime u yearn for some attention form another like married person who is in the same boat and will have a lot more in common...if that makes sense

    It has been my experience that "looking" is a very slippery slope. What does anyone else think? I believe no matter how good one's relationship is, the "grass-is-greener" fallacy can happen regardless especially on the internet.

    Depends on the "looking". I've been married for a long time now, but I'm always looking for people to goof off with online. I look for new friends in real life, but I'm not going to go behind my wife's back to get laid or start a relationship with someone else.

    I totally understand but have also seen cases where something begins innocently and gradually evolves to where one partner cannot compete with the online friend. I don't disagree with you, I just think looking can become more than it starts out to be.

    So, you mean an unhappily married person on the hunt typically looks for another unhappily married individual?

    That makes sense and I understand communicating with people of similar interests/predicaments. As another mentioned, I do agree that it can become a slippery slope, if the person you share that predicament with is of the opposite sex (or the sex you're attracted/married to).

    I guess. Possibly. I mean, if you multiply two negative numbers, you get a positive, right? Basic math says that there's no way that scenario can go wrong. :D

    So, if I'm a married man and I'm chitting and chatting with a married woman, who is not my wife, it's only a matter of time before we're doing the horizontal mambo?

    I guess I view my marriage differently.

    Nope. This was particularly directed for UNHAPPILY married individuals, remember (the negatives)? haha
