That’s an acquaintance, not a friend.
A friend is someone you do stuff with like golf, fishing, poker, etc…
Someone you haven’t seen in a decade isn’t a friend.

Kids. I can’t imagine life without my kids, but there’s no denying having little kids has the potential to stress parental relationships.

That’s living in a lie and being completely delusional not to mention a great way to get divorced and go bankrupt.

I'm Happy, dont feelnlike I "settled" and enjiy being around my inlaws. I have quite a few friends who dont seam happy though.

Curious what their reasons are. Sex (sexless marriage or cheating), finances, or just a general cunty attitude they can’t deal with? The guy who went to the camp with you, sounds like his wife took care of the elementary school aged kids over the weekend, and didn’t protest the hunting trip. She doesn’t sound half bad. Possibly a big fight over him being gone all week at work and then takes off for a hunting trip on a Friday might have precipitated the aforementioned bitching about the wife.

Biggest issue I see with people over the age of 40. It’s not sex, infidelity and finances, it’s control freaks guilt tripping the other person into doing activities without them.
Having a healthy marriage with each person having an outlet with friends is healthy and puts way less strain on the marriage. Ask any professional counselor and they’ll tell you the same thing.

A lot of people choose poorly. However men complaining about their wives is common even if she is a good wife.
That’s because women are annoyingly irrational emotional creatures and we wouldn’t give them the time of day if not for that gash between their legs

I honestly don’t know a guy that is truly happy with their marriage.
They only reason they stay in it, is because either kids or the financial part

The difference is, they won’t hook up if happily married (it’s more about the game/chase, to make sure “you still have it”). Few things are worse than a married guy fricking a skank on a guy’s trip.
Although those who say they don’t crave some strange after 10+ years of marriage are liars (or virgins when they married). I love filet mignon, but after eating it for 10 plus years, every now and then you want a taco, a pizza, a burger, etc.

1 is in a marriage that is neither good nor bad - just meh, and the other is in a pretty good marriage with a wife that is mostly okay.

I got together with a friend one time and he was telling me how happy he was, how his wife was the best thing that ever happened to him, etc. Three month later they were getting divorced. I take whatever someone says about their marriage with a huge grain of salt.

This is the 5% for me. My wife will take a trip with my stepdaughter for a weekend that I am not allowed to go on but when I want to do something with friends she gets mad that she isn’t invited. It is almost like she doesn’t want me to spend money without her but she can spend money without me.

I would be very surprised if any of my friends got divorced, but most of them waited until their 30’s to get married and are generally happy with their decision. Sometimes people bitch about their spouses, but that doesn’t mean they are unhappy with their marriage overall.

If you can contact them at any point and still not miss a beat they are a friend.

I have one buddy that ends up having another kid every time he’s about to leave. Most are happy with their wives. I mean it’s marriage. You end up with kids, problems and other shite that isn’t really a thing when dating.

When wives do their duty for their husband and children, most men are happily married.
Society has corrupted many women today. Society tells women that they must focus on themselves. When this happens these women do not focus on their husbands and children.
Marriage requires both husband and wife to put love into action. Love is a decision, not a feeling. Many women think love is a feeling, and when they do not have the "feels" the women shut down. This is contrary to being a loving wife and mother. You love no matter if you feel like it or not. Feeling like loving is not a requirement to cooking, cleaning, caring for the children, and the wife making love with to husband.
All they need to do is read the whole Bible. IF they claim to be Christian their duty is written in the Bible.

Sounds like the kids are young in his situation. If she’s taking care of 3 kids under 7 years old all week, and ole boy just comes back from a 7 day shift offshore and hauls arse to the camp, she’s going to be pissed.
Giving each other time for their own hobbies/activities, in addition to continuing couple activities is important to a marriage.
