In one of my classes we are writing mock legislation. I am writing about repealing the DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). I am trying to figure out what marriage rights are currently given to couples in same-sex marriages in the United States as compared to opposite-sex married couples.

What does it mean when expecting married couples say they weren’t planning on a child…? Like, what does that mean? That they were using a condom, but one time the condom didn’t work and they didn’t know it or that the wife stopped taking BCP but forgot and didn’t tell the husband? One of my professors told me this and I wanted to ask, but I already felt he was telling me too much.

Just doing an assignment and need to know some stats. Anyone know what percentage of married couples are Atheists? It would help me out a great deal.

Question: How many ways can four married couples sit in a row on a park bench if the men and women must alternate?

Answer: 1152

How do I get to the answer?

Can anyone please help? Thank you.

I think it must be hard for couples without children to understand that parental responsibilities come before friendships.

My kid is needing more of my time, and is expressing it in the usual way kids do. It does not seem my friend understands that and seems angry that this issue limits my time for friendship.

Frankly, most of my time is taken up with various endeavors. I hardly have time to myself.

BQ: Where do married couples find good, understanding friends who are also married couples?

Disclaimer: I am married.

I’m writing a play for school that focuses on a problem between a young couple in a marriage counseling session (a comedy), but I can’t really find a problem that could cause the distress that is really simple, obvious and common between a lot of married couples. Can anyone give me an idea of an issue that a lot of married couples deal with that causes conflict but is seemingly no real threat?

Are there any places which combine a vacation with marriage counseling? I think it would be a fantastic idea to combine the two. It seems like these types of vacations would be better for married couples to go on, like once a year, than just taking a week to spend on a beach (although that is great, too).
Anyone know a website where I can learn more?

I heard that in Quebec, couples absolutely need to go about filing a divorce through a lawyer, is that true? Can married couples in Quebec divorce without a lawyer?

He Laughed at me and said "your gonna fail at getting men" then i said well god said that sex is only for married couples. he said whatever or something like that. i’m almost starting to believe that because people tell me that’s really really lame. So boys don’t like girls that want to save their virginity until marriage? =(

Hey,

My fiance and I have been together for a little less then four years and have been engaged since February. I heard that when you get married through a church it is mandatory to go to counseling and meet other married couples to learn how to get through those rough times. Well we aren’t having a traditional wedding, but I would still like to go through the counseling. Do all you married or soon to be married people suggest that this is a good idea or a waste of time and money? My biggest fear is that we wont learn how to get through those tough times and we will become apart of the divorce statistics. Don’t get me wrong, we are deep in love, everything is great, we get through the ups and downs and are happy, but isn’t everybody before they get married and then one person stops trying and they end up in court. Please let me know your opinion… No negativity needed. Thanks!
