At least the kids know?

I know someone who's parents divorced when they were 12/13, but the parents stayed living in the same house. They did notice the parents did a lot of stuff separately, but it didn't raise any alarm bells.

Parents waited to tell the kids until they finished university that they'd been divorced since before they were in high school.

"We didn't want to scar you while you had school." As opposed to the massive trust issues brought up by being lied to for 10 years.

I'm not sure what's worse. Being scarred as a child learning your parents are divorcing? Or being lied to until you're an adult? :fuckthatshit:

or take a diff approach: baby please be as loud and freaky as possible, i need the ex to know i'm living my best life; we gotta pound against the walls :ilied: :troll: :lol

not telling the kids doesn't help, kids are very observant, more than parents give them credit for.

if there's tense relationship dynamic etc, it will be noticed, and acting distant / loveless may make them think this is normal relationship behavior

I feel this is appropriate.

so i got my dad a apple tv for xmas and casting feature and screen mirroring seems to drop every 15-20mins. ive playing around with all the display/lock screen/sleep settings but no lock. i even disconnected the 2.5hz so it stays on the 5g and still no luck. im not a apple tv user, is there something im doing wrong or do a have a dud?

A common dating topic - how has your upbringing shaped the way you think/behave about dating/relationships

are all the firmwares and/or OSs updated?

this may or may not be helpful but when I had similar issues, it was just because there was a mismatch in the newness of the devices.

i.e.

modem
phone
apple tv
tv

if one of those is ancient and the rest is newish, the system crashes. in my case it was an older phone with an older OS that couldn't handle things and airplay kept crashing.

if that's the conversation, sounds like the worst date ever.

Lesson here is don't date BIC_BAWS? :lol

i thought you were going to say talking about the shape of something else on a date Kappa

"Ya so my dad used to cheat on all his broads, so I pretty much have done the same. Don't worry though, this time will be different" :lol

Great icebreaker to a date.

newish modem
5yr old ipad
15yr old tv
apple tv 4k

played with it a little more tonight and it seems to stay connected if i leave the screen mirroring/airplay bubble on. the minute is exit the bubble and multi task itll disconnect around 15mins after.

does your phone go into sleep mode? or blanks out? Maybe battery saving mode kicked in?

If discussing childhood or adolescent trauma makes her panties wet, that’s a little bit of a red flag.

I need to meet this girl. :pokerface:

WAT

it could simply be the 5-year old ipad is struggling to keep up. airplay is super finicky like that, at least it was in my experience until I upgraded all the devices.

no i tried turning off everything.

you're right! i told him to try air playing from this iphone14 and it works without dropping. i'll try updating his ios on his ipad next time im there and see if it fixes it.

But those are the ones who are the most wild and kinkiest in bed

legitimate question:

how many of you signed prenups before your marriage? or cohabitation agreements if common law?

follow up question:

what would your spouse say now, if that were a stipulation before getting married?

Nope to both. 18 years married and she has all the money, password, titles, whatever. Quite a bit of power for a tiny midget.

i dont care, i trust her completely..... im also basically a semi functional retard, so maybe dont listen to me.

What's the point of a prenup when neither of us had any money?

I never understood the idea of pre-nup.

Ok, I'm like super oldschool when it comes to marriage. IMHO, you are either sure that you'd either be with this person through thick and thin or you don't. Should there be any doubt, don't get married.

Sure both me and my wife are dead set that our most valuable assets go to the children in case of anything and thus we put most of the assets in trust a few years back as part of our estate planning and/or anyone has the wrong idea, but still.

Marriage is about compromises that you are willing to take. If there's doubt that you'd one day not willing to compromise anymore, just don't.

Compromise is just another way of saying you never actually get what you want! Fuck that!

hahahaha

At the moment, I perfectly agree with you.

But so many times shit happens, priorities change, income levels become very lopsided, or one side gave up their career for the family, or their family provided most of the wealth (housing, car, business capital, etc).

And some times, people just fall out of love, or the relationship gets toxic.

It's great honestly that you feel that way about marriage and you still do which is beautiful, it sounds like you aren't really the target demographic of a prenup, but there are people who are.
