Search Results: does he mean it

Simple question right? I will concede that falling in love with someone isn't 100% a choice, its a combination of attraction, and chemical responses. But continuing to love someone i believe is a choice.

Let me explain why i believe that.

Love needs to be nurtured. To maintain the relationship, you can't just expect the "Spark" to be there. Both sides need to make effort. Both sides need to do the things that maintain connection.

For example, Every morning when i wake up, i wake a half our prior to actually needing to get up so i can get extra cuddle time with my wife. When i come home from lunch i hug her, and tell her how much i miss her. When i come home at the end of the day i do the same, and then we cook together.. the important term here is Together. Hell even my furniture choices have centered around making sure that even when we are just watching a show together it means cuddle time. Additionally i took my grandfathers advice seriously, which was "Never stop dating your wife" So i make sure to do things like date nights, and spontaneous gifts, And by gifts, i mean things she's been wanting, to things as simple as chocolate. I tell her she's beautiful every day, and i tell her how much i love her every day. And this isn't one way, My wife does similar stuff for me.

Bottom line, if i chose to stop doing all of that, my wife would first think that there was something wrong, Then she would think that i was angry with her, and finally she would think that i dont love her. It would essentially kill the marriage.

Love, Marriage, And everything in between takes effort, Marriage is hard work, Its remembering to do the little things. Its making sure above all else that you have open lines of communication.

A lot of people fail to comprehend that, and i believe this is the reason for the horrific divorce rate.

See the following poem. it explains it quite well

I will say I voted for Trump these past 3 elections. He may have not served the second election, and while many speculate it was because the left cheated, I would not be surprised but I don't know what information to believe anymore.

That is one very significant thing I need to emphasize: I don't know what sources to believe, which ones are conspiracy theories, and which ones are actually genuinely true. There is so much misinformation, I don't know exactly what to believe anymore regarding our government and politics. I just know there is a shit ton of corruption, greed, and passiveness at many turns.

I will say, on a positive note, I am happy Trump tackled this whole woke, "politically correct", social engineering issue head on and restored some common sense. This leftist PC propaganda was a cancer, and I honestly feel it was a main factor why our nation was heading down the tube. While the Trump administration has destroyed that cancer in multiple facets, sadly it is still running rampant on media.

I am also happy Trump addressed the border and illegal immigration crisis promptly, swiftly, and with full-on force.

Here is where I am losing my support with Trump: the cost of living, inflation, and opportunity for everyday, middle-class and working-class Americans and younger generations alike. I feel many of them are being butchered right now. This was the main "selling-point" for Trump during his first term. At some point he must take ownership as everyday Americans continue to struggle and scrape at the bottom of the barrel just to feed themselves, their children, and their pets.

Trump's solution of a 50-year mortgage sounds like a shit idea. Does this mean for younger generations to afford homes, the solution is to be enslaved to debt longer with more interest in the end? I also feel Trump is failing to address the soaring prices on basic essentials like food.
