It wasn't though. It was implying that millennial are divorcing more than in the past which is actually the opposite of what has happened so far.

Learn how to spell millennial too

People who make generalizations about certain generations are losers who aren't very intelligent.

What if the advice to millennials was unneeded?

Particularly from yall's generation. I imagine millennials are getting married later and less frequently, which is leading to fewer totally shite marriages. There are tons of other problems to address, but there is probably a little improvement on that front.

The deemphasis on marriage/family life is crappy, though.

He never said that millennials were divorcing at higher numbers than other generations. Alll he said was he's seen two couples recently divorce. Being that Millineals are the generation that's reaching the normal marrying age, it's only natural his warning against the mistakes of the past are directed at them.

Stop being so obsessed about how your generation compares to others and instead listen and learn when someone is trying to help you.

Nope. No set boundaries. Just common sense.

Don't do something you wouldn't want the other person to do.

Boundaries aren't some magical force to keep people in line. If someone wants to cheat, they're going to cheat. I don't keep tabs on her and she can do whatever she wants. Same with me. I'm not going to sit around and wonder what she's doing. I trust her. And If I ever don't trust her, I'll call the whole thing off and try to frick her friends.


exactly. wtf do I need boundries for? I wouldn't marry somebody that doesn't have enough common sense and courtesy to not step over the line. My wife has never done anything like that at all in 8 years of marriage and if she did in the future, she would know its wrong and would suffer the consequences.

We fight over other stuff, like whose turn it is to do the dishes(always mine) and why she doesn't vaccuum or workout enough.

I'm not. I get help from a strong family system on both my and my wife's side, not from tigerdroppings.

Stop bringing up millennial as every time something bad happens in society. We haven't even been of age long enough yet to screw it all up like the boomers did yet you are blaming us for everything. Maybe we learned it from you.

Btw, my marriage is hitting 5 years and I could not be more in love with my wife and the feeling is the same. She showed me this last night and this morning. Yes, that was a not so subtle brag I had sex.

Not trying to get doctor Phil in here, but millinials(not a jab at millinials, just seems to be at that stage for millinials and not other generations) have to understand that creating boundaries is needed in a marriage. You must understand and articulate what is acceptable and unacceptable behavior in your marriage. Set rails up so to speak, in finances of course, but also what is acceptable on social media and at work.


Communication has been key, I also think millennial women are more likely to tell men to frick off if they are doing something stupid - instead of past generations where the woman would just "suck it up" and not say anything. This leads to better communication and less "oh god, she blew up on me, it was really bad, and she hasn't done that in years" type shite, because in my experience: if anyone keeps anything bottled up at all, it ends up being more intense, and harder to handle because of the lack of it happening regularly.

P.S: A lot of this is why I think millennial divorce rates are the lowest in a long time as well. (on top of having lots of information about the person... I still think going back to Arranged marriage wouldn't be a bad thing either )

Men cannot read minds. if you are pissed off about something please tell us so we can remedy the situation. This is all I ask.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I've seen complete bitches who keep it locked up and don't talk to their Husbands about shite in my generation... my cousin actually married a girl like this. But as a general rule - my sister and 1 female cousin are extremely vocal and don't keep shite locked away, my 2 brothers, and 4 out of 5 of my cousins, married girls who speak their minds. It just seems to be a growing majority of women who do not accept the whole "don't talk about it" mentality.

We do. I can't PIIHB. Boundary set.



Then how do you solve all your marital disputes? According to everything I've learned in the OT, PIIHB is the best way to settle an argument with the wife.
