Default RE: Any advice?

Marriage equals comprimise but in no way is it healthly to try and change one persons life. If you don't nip this you'll have regret and most likely a poor life together. I would suggest being honest with both her and yourself. If either of you can't reach a happy medium you'll be better off finding out now than later. I am sure things she does or enjoys, you don't...try and assimulate this with your love of hunting. Make sure to say you support her and love her for her individualism (they like that). Then get to the meat(pun) of why you like hunting and how it makes you feel. You can say I am the man you love and want to marry and hunting is a part of me....why the change of heart now. tell her she don't have to like it, enjoy or partake in it...just support it. Listen I have had many a pal who was in the same situation with the girlfriend/wife and all of them now are either moved on, but in most cases happily ever after. You will have to comprimise your hunting time when married this will be a fact, but you shouldn't have to walk away from some thing you enjoy and love b/c of it(marriage). No good will come of it...I gaurantee, if you truly enjoy hunting, nothing but regret and anger..which will result in divorce and more anger or one unhappy life as man/wife. I am married and I know that it is struggle at times just to keep it a float...but if I had to choose wife or hunting...I would be signing checks. thanks god that isn't a concern...but you catch my drift.

We all know the true way to a mans heart "Ain't through his stomach", but in fact somewhere else and hunting!
