The Rules for Marriage 101

I never understood why, when people get married, they want to hangout with their single friends. I know of a few that have gotten married and still thought they were single; and let me say not all people cheat. Now don't get me wrong there are some cool single people (including myself) that would never jeopardize a relationship because you reap what you sow and you have to be very careful on how you treat people. Apparently, many have forgotten the golden rule. So when news broke that Scottie and Larsa Pippen were getting divorced I was shocked just like the rest of the world. They were just together a week prior to an event supporting their daughter wearing wedding rings. I couldn't foresee being married for 10 years, yet alone 19 years, and then one day say, "I want to divorce you." But when Pandora box opens, it will reveal things you can no longer hide; you can be rich and famous and still be a mess.

Let me first catch you up: last week Scottie filed for divorce from Larsa his wife of 19 years. Reports had surfaced that Larsa was jumping on private jets living the good life with Future in Las Vegas and Miami within the last two months. She has stated that they are really good friends. Now if your a married 42-year-old married woman with four children you would think her groupie days were over, seeing as she married Michael Jordan's best friend.

But some forget the alleged cheating Scottie did when he played for the Chicago Bulls. Could this be a "monkey see, monkey do" scenario? Now you can have ratchet friends and still maintain an alter ego for awhile but the real you will show up and show out. Maybe she wanted a rapper with 7 kids and 5 baby mothers?

I remember having a conversation with an associate of mine. He recently got married and asked me when was I going to get married? I explained to him that I'm not at that point in my life and when I'm ready everyone will know. He proceeded to explain how I don't have that long and I should do it when I'm young. Now my thought as he was talking was why would I mess myself up like that knowing I could destroy two people lives forever because I wasn't ready? Now I'm not saying that Larsa wasn't ready to be a wife, but there are rules and regulations to marriage and messing around with a rapper with 5 baby mamas isn't a good look at her age. I can never understand why you would spend half of your life with someone and then just up and walk away. Just remember the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
