Can a Threesome Save Your Marriage?

Thursday, April 3, 2008

CNN's story about a couple who avoided divorce by bringing in a lawyer and drawing up a post-nup agreement got us thinking.

A Boston couple in the article fought constantly about money until they turned to a lawyer to build a mutually acceptable financial plan. She wanted stability, while her hubby wanted to take risks and seed his new business.

When this story was brought-up this morning in the ML offices, most of the moms gasped with disappointment that couples need to have a three-way with an attorney to solve their issues.

"Where's the romance?" "Why can't they just discuss these things over a glass of wine?" Then, one pragmatic person asked, "With divorce rates so high, why shouldn't people take this step if it helps them make their marriage successful?" What do you think?

I don’t know if I would go that far - BUT I think that people need to get over the notion that “romance” has anything to do with a good marriage! A good marriage is PLANNING, WORK AND COMMUNICATION! Some of the most romantic relationships I have ever seen ended in divorce. Romance does not make or break a marriage - if the marriage is strong, the romance will come with it but romance won’t keep a marriage strong all on it’s own.

Amen! “Romance” left our moms in miserable relationships in the 1950’s and 60’s and romance got our friend divorced. Get a lawyer and make it work!

My own parents had an arranged marriage and had never seen each other beofre when they got married in the Middle East. They have been married nearly 30 years now and raised 3 successful children in Canada. Romance had absolutely nothing to do with their marriage and everything worked out fabulously for them.

i say that a three some would be a great idea but if you are going to have it i say have one with each sex this way you both get that satisfaction it not about romance it just helps keep that spark alive cause if you can do something like a three some and still be together happy then do it.
