It's too late, he is hooked.

My advice to my daughters, and this is what I did,
try really hard to find a reason to not get married.
Don't be petty, or stupid. But look, hard.
If you can find it. Don't get married.

Way too many people overlook things for love.
Those things become impossible later.

Advise for a newlywed?



Yes..

Tell him to use advise and advice when appropriate.


Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.

Rehabilitation is way overrated.

The females of all mammal species are six times more vocal than the male. Learn to take hints use earplugs.

And most importantly, remember that we would all still be laying on the sidewalk, burning ants with a magnifying glass, if it weren't for and would be perfectly happy without women.

Men change slowly. Women change by the second. (Yup, can't add to that one.)

Oh....and they know they're crazy, but it usually doesn't behoove you to remind them not nearly HOW crazy. You should remind them frequently.

Make sure he's a better shot than she is....


And, when back-pack hunting, NEVER let her carry the gun.... short legs, short temper, and a backpack ain't a good combination.

(We went sheep hunting on our honeymoon..... smile )

Mostly yes, but our lack of masculinity has also allowed boys to be stepped on by feminism.

This is good info, but he's asking for the groom, not the bride.

Good, but only if they both do the same, otherwise resentment abounds.

Yup, but this should be standard for every relationship we have. I say a bunch of harsh things, but I don't lie, and I won't censor my speech for anyone.

THIS IS HUGE, BTDT. If she asks, just say it was good, and no more. BTW, make sure you look at what it is before you ditch it... she might ask how was the PB&J, when she made you a turkey sandwich.

Yes, but again it needs both sides to truly work, one sided relationships will always fail, as our society generally promotes hedonistic individualism anymore.

I really like this... Not in a cynical or malicious way, but to definitely look at their character in every facet and see if there is anything that could create issues later.


I've never been married, but I was heading that way twice...both of them would have turned sour eventually with hindsight. 'The Red Pill' will help to explain women's motives in relationships, but there's a lot of womanizing in it as well.

Some good advice I heard was:

Put in 100% and only expect 80%. That way you'll never feel like you're doing all the work.

When I was a newlywed, I didn't know the difference between vaseline and window caulk.

My first year of marriage I was getting ready to go to camp. My wife pleaded with me to stay with her. I did think about it but I didnt give in. Fortunately I had listened to an old timer that said dont let your new wife mold you into what she wants you to be you will not stay married for long. We,ve been married 26 years and I pretty much hunt and fish whenever I want to. My best friend got married soon after me. He gave into his wifes demands imediately. They are still married BUT he only hunts or fishes when she says he can. Which is very seldom!! Women always want to change you
