If wife isn’t good then wife shouldn’t have been wife in the first place.

My wife’s dope.

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 61 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Eh, life can change wife, life can change husband. Sometimes it's great for a couple years, then not. Doesn't mean wife not good. Just not the best fit anymore.

Why use many word, when few word do trick.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Trick is what whore do for money

And you should change if you wanna keep your marriage alive. I always wonder why society considers change to be something bad.

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's dead, Jim.

We diverged in different directions and split up in friendship. There's no shame in ending something before both hate eachother.

[–] Anamana@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Nono sure. I wasn't referring to a specific example. I just see relationship as sth that needs growth and change and not as a never-changing system that has to be kept the same at all costs.

And yeah change can also lead to speration, which also doesn't have to be bad. Like in your example.

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean don't get me wrong, I'm still suffering. But it was the best decision given the situation.

All relationships require work to keep alive, whether it be romantic, platonic, or familial.

You are wise for a perogi.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

i like the saying that your partner should also be your best friend

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If ur partner is not your best friend then why are they your partner?

[–] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But I already have a best friend

Although I agree in practice, the pedant in me thinks that best is exclusive to a singular entity.

[–] seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago

You can like two people just as much, but for different reasons.

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Suit yourself but life’s definitely more fun when you open yourself up to friends

[–] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago

I did say I agree in practice

[–] thorbot@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm legitimately surprised to find a comment thread on Lemmy with people in a healthy long term relationship, what a find

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca -3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

It’s because the thread starts out all negative, everyone contributes with their negativity, if you come in and say that your wife’s great and y’all are best friends, everyone jumps down your throat and gets nasty. Who’d sign up for that?

Edit: case in point right here lmao. Sorry y’all have such bad relationships with your wives.

[–] thorbot@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Honestly I think a large portion of lemmings are single and bitter and it shows. This one is a nice change

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago

Are we lemmings ? I assumed we were lemurs

[–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

This comment is the only negative thing I have seen in the whole thread besides the wierdo right on the bottom

[–] RavenFellBlade@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

Work! Glory to your houuuuuuse!

[–] Asclepiaz@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago
