Does Marriage Have Rules?
How many times have you been married? Never? Once? Too many to remember? Did you go through a divorce or were you widowed? Did you win or lose in the divorce? What did you win or lose? Money? House? Car? Child? Did you have to start over with nothing but the hope that your life mattered enough to keep going even though you were broken-hearted and had nothing to offer the world except yourself? I've been watching that tragedy happen to so many people for a half-century, and I've read books and movies that depict these terrible experiences through history for centuries. Yet regardless of how many times we read or view a scene like the Red Wedding from Game of Thrones, we somehow still want to believe that Love and our silly immature notion of Love is worth gambling on. I am sorry to tell you, but at 51 years old, I have developed a very strong opinion that Love is not worth dying for. Romeo and Juliet were two stupid, horny idiots who committed suicide because they hated their parents and they thought that death was better than slavery. So be it. But if I had been Juliet, I would have told my parents, "I'll marry the guy you want me to marry, as long as we have a legal prenuptial agreement. This way when he screws up, I will be set and rewarded for agreeing to be his slave for however long it takes until he screws up. I'm not going to be the whore/slave for years and end up homeless and starving on the street just because I trusted my parents."

The Day My Surrogate Mother Crashed My Wedding
I always hear about these 'horror wedding stories' that young singles circulate among their friends. It usually involves the bridesmaids sleeping with the groom or the best man fathering the bride's honeymoon baby. My fiance and I were level-headed, we weren't alcoholics or wild partiers. We both made sure that everyone in our wedding party would have scruples and not be crazy enough to do anything stupid. They all passed the normalcy test. So we felt that we would have a memorable wedding but not too memorable for our wedding guests to gossip about our wedding for years to come. But what happened at my wedding, I could never imagine happening anywhere to anyone. Guess what? It happened to me.
