*arcypher's profile:

I have been in many relationships. I have four children, not all with the same mother. I have had many jobs from working on oil refineries to night club doorman. I have qualifications in computers and science. I have been out of work due to a car accident while I was driving a taxi. Training at the gym and running takes up some of my spare time.

I am straight to the point and don't like mincing my words. Although I have a huge sense of humour and am very well liked. Religion and any dogmatic beliefs piss me off. And I hate greedy politicians and all the verbal crap they pour down our throats.

A.   21 April 2011: Sometimes long distance relationships don't work even when the people in question are married. At your ages I cant see any of you waiting another year when you will be so preoccupied with your own lives. It is time to move on. There will will be ... (read in full...)

Q.   I got legally married 6 months ago. My parents nor my husband's parents are aware of the wedding. Since we belong to different communities it took some time to get my husband's family to accept me. Now a social wedding is being planned for the month ...

A.   5 April 2011: If marriage doesn't make him feel secure then I'm not sure what will. People in general are more insecure now though than ever before for all kinds of reasons. Sounds like you two, as adults, should be taking care of your own affairs without parents ... (read in full...)

A.   4 April 2011: Me and my ex wife had a similar problem. She wanted to go out and I wanted to stay in. I think for a relationship to work you have got to find a comprimise or be unhappy with each other and fail as we did. I know it's not always that simple, but ... (read in full...)

A.   29 March 2011: I think very few people learn from their mistakes. Wisdom is a rare thing and not found in fools. Most people who are promiscuous tend to stay that way. Thats why today more marriages than ever before fail. If someone is a known cheat they don't ... (read in full...)
