A gay man ruined the "institute of marriage" for my best high school friend's mom. Her dad came out and left her for his boyfriend when we were in 11th grade.

Awwww!

Are you a male or female? LOL

Either way, you both look great! I am glad to hear your marriage is a good one!

Yes ... Especially the no fault divorces. Marriage is meant to be a lifetime commitment but the ease in which folks can obtain a divorce has cheapened the vows to where they are meaningless.

You know darn well what I mean. How can the righties claim gays ruin marriage, when we have a 50% divorce rate? I'd love to hear it. Clearly we are doing a fine job ourselves without any help from the homosexuals.
Oh I agree. Divorce is the number one enemy of marriage and concerns me even more than the concept of gay marriages.
