Most m...A man that finds a wife finds a good thing! Most men become sucesses after they are married because marriage gives them a vision and purpose (having to provide for the wifey and family.) and its been proven that married men are healthier, happier and live longer than unmarried ones (must be the home cooking.) I think Oprah is wrong for warning women against it as this is not in their best interest (if Steadman was to fall very sick in hospital Oprah by law wouldn't have as many rights over medical decisions as a wife would, partners have been known not to be allowed to see their sick dying man in hospital because they have no legal or blood claim to them) and anyway in case of things getting nasty down the road marriage protects both parties better than a partnership would. I think its plain silly to argue against it. TRIVIA did you know that Abraham lincoln was a social outcast and political failure until he got a wife? Only after he got married did he get clear about his political and career aspirations and his wife helped build him into a socially acceptable man. Though on the other hand draping yourself over some guys car to claim him spiritually is a bit extreme..Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351695007181190630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7486446.post-1147284044774895892006-05-10T14:00:00.000-04:002006-05-10T14:00:00.000-04:00ati a good man is hard to find......NOT !Its more ...ati a good man is hard to find......NOT !<BR/>Its more like A HARD MAN IS GOOD TO FIND....<BR/><BR/>he he he he heThe Devious Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06825054203133352126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7486446.post-1147277740658832202006-05-10T12:15:00.000-04:002006-05-10T12:15:00.000-04:00@ KMYou are welcome!@ KelituKumeharibika!Good men ...@ KM<BR/>You are welcome!<BR/>@ Kelitu<BR/>Kumeharibika!Good men are hard to find!<BR/>@ Movie buff<BR/>I am sure your mum was not amused!I have told my mum the same thing and she is in denial!Let her keep on waiting!Your one week will pass!<BR/>@ kelitu<BR/>Now that is an Oprah that I need to see!Seems for once she is talking sense!People need to wake up and smell the coffee!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7486446.post-1147276690689837142006-05-10T11:58:00.000-04:002006-05-10T11:58:00.000-04:00acolyte kwani you were watching Opraha jana, the w...acolyte kwani you were watching Opraha jana, the way she was condemning marriages and what not. i was sooo not impressed by her.
