Or does it depend on the situation ?How soon to is Too soon to be married after being divorced ?<br >To each their own, im sure its different for other people, and yeah it depends on the situation.How soon to is Too soon to be married after being divorced ?<br >My mother has been married 3x.<br><br /><br />She married my dad, and he left her high and dry when I was born.<br><br /><br />Then 5 yrs later she married my 1st stepdad 20 yrs later he died.<br><br /><br />Then 5 yrs later remarried my current dad, ( he is more of a father to me than the first 2 combined.)They have been married for 10 yrs and they had a baby girl.<br><br /><br />Basically, whenever you feel ready.<br >I'd say if you filed for divorce today and flew to vegas tomorrow, it might be a tad early...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I don't think there is a clear-cut and dry answer, but if you're the type that seems a relationship to run from any type of self-esteem issues, then you need to deal with those first. I also think that as long as you're confident, and dealt with any psychological issues positively, then you're good to go...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Just my opinion...<br >It's all up to the individual And if children are involved. A divorce then a marriage immediately maybe too much for children to handle. It takes time to adjust to the ending of a marriage. And then BAM we have a new Pappa. Take your time!<br >No such thing as too soon. Live, love and if it doesn't work, try and try again. You only live once.

How long have you been married?How is being married different than dating?<br >The first guy's answer is weird - I'm married and when my wife and I go on a date, we both go home afterward.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />It's different than dating because it provides the comforting security of a lifetime commitment. It is therefore a much more relaxed and worry-free relationship than dating.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I have been married for 22 years so far.How is being married different than dating?<br >Being married, you get to come home to the person you love every night. You have your best friend by your side through thick and thin. You are with the person you want to spend the rest of your life with.<br><br /><br />Also when dating you can just cut the ties and move on being married, you get a divorce and have to go though who gets what.<br><br /><br />For me I love being married. I married my best friend literally we have been best friends since i was 14, I am 24 now. To know that one person wants to spend the rest of their lives with you is an awesome feeling.<br >Marriage comes with obligation but that obligation should come out of love. With just dating, there is no obligation of any kind.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage allows you to file your taxes together and ';married filing joint'; is the hightest tax bracket, which usually means a bigger return. Dating is irrevelant when filing your taxes. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage, where the mother's last name is same as her husband's, allows your children to automatically take on the father's surname. Dating means you have to file for a name change and can result in a fight if the situation isn't discussed in detail. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage allows you to make decisions regarding your spouses health, such as being taken off life support or approving a particular surgery. Dating doesn't allow you to make any decisions regardless of age and/or how long you've been together, if your state doesn't recognize common law marriages. To tack on to that, obtaining a death certificate or getting money from social security or life insurance is relatively easy when you're married. When you're just dating, it's almost impossible. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />There are many other differences but those come to mind off hand.<br >I have been married 41 years and to this date we do not fuss or fight. If we have a disagreement we talk it out. The difference between dating and getting married is. When you marry you make a commitment and earn security with your mate. When dating there is nothing to hold you together and its like saying I can quit anytime I want. I will not quote scripture but man and woman a instructed to separate from Mother and Father and join together as one. The longer you into a relationship the more you trust and the longer your together the stronger the love builds. Security is the answer I would have to give for being married.<br >Many, many years. The difference, well for one it is a commitment that is legal on paper, and also it is honoring to God and his plan for the family. The reason why we have so much divorce accepted, teenagers having kids, men screwing everyone they can find, and the entire reason the Jerry Springer show exists is because of the lack of honor and respect for the family unit. Hope this helps. If you have doubt about the person you want to marry, then don't take the plunge. It should be forever, not for a year or a few months like these foolish and bad example celebrities!<br >Been married 10 years, been together for 12. Marriage is different b/c you have to learn to work through issues, even when you feel like running away. You also have think of your spouse's feelings first before your own and vice versa, to keep a happy union. There is no room for being selfish, and one stupid act of deception or lies, will haunt you for a long time. Where as when you are dating, you can just break up if you are unhappy....marriage you can divorce.....but there are so many more factors to consider, children, fiances etc.<br >10 years, and the diff is being together every day, no matter what, thats the diff, not too much into it, just that. You have to be very mature to be married, Oh and you get to have sex all the time, unless you get an old ladie who wants it once a day or once a week, lol<br >I have been dating my wife of 15 years for about 17 years. I still treat her the same way I did then. I open doors, be polite, call her everyday and say I love you, pull her hair out of the toilet when she is puking... LOL<br><br /><br />We still do the dating thing and we have been very happy. Being married is fun, but you gotta work at it.<br >Dating isn't serious or committed. Dating is just fun and games. At the end of a date, you go home. You can date more than one person.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage is a permanent date. It involves day to day crap and learning to put up with it or change it. It means committing to one person.<br >When you're married there is feeling that you're in it together, like it's the two of you against the world. And when you argue you don't have anywhere to go so you have to really face every issue that comes up head on. It's taught me a lot about myself.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Married 1 year<br >You get a pretty ring when you're married ; ) LOL But seriously, When you're dating, everything is exciting and it seems like things speed up, but when you're married everything seems to slow down.<br >There isn't enough room on your screen for me to tell you the differences. Just know, everything is different!!!<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Some good different, some bad different. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />married 12 years and still counting........<br >Dating - 70% Committed<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Married - 100% Committed (Becos the law says so)<br >u together 24 /7 now its gonna b different give it time ....not married but been together 30 years<br >dating is all about you<br><br /><br />marriage is all about your spouse, which you enjoy!<br >Commitment. There's no revolving exit door.<br >How is owning different than renting?<br >When dating you get to go home after the date.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Married 25 years <br><br /><br />Divorced 5 years<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I like dating<br >Haha...ha...ha...sigh...<br >well decision making is a two person job you, your together all the time you share your space<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />4 yearsLillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-5733034447471995292010-08-20T22:42:00.000-07:002010-08-20T22:42:12.844-07:00How can a married American/Canadian couple live together by immigration with limited stress and hassle?My girlfriend and I want to get married. thing is I live in Canada and she lives in United States. We both want to live together but we are having trouble figuring out how the immigration process works. We basically want to know if we can get married and then live in the US together... and then proceed to do the immigration paperwork without being deported, or if we will have to live apart until after the process has completed. We would greatly appreciate any information that can be given. Thank you very much in advanced and God bless you.How can a married American/Canadian couple live together by immigration with limited stress and hassle?<br >Please be very careful. The first poster gave you information that will screw up your chances of being together.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />You may not legally move to the USA until after your fiancee files for a visa for you. Technically, you arent even allowed to legally visit, since you have an American fiancee. If you make the mistake of telling the US border guards you are entering the country to visit your fiancee, or you are entering in order to get married, they will deny you entry. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Your fiancee will have to file for a k-1 visa for you to move to the USA and it will take several months. During tht time you will not be allowed to visit her. She will also have to be able to prove she makes enough money to sponsor you. I think the current rate is one and one half times the poverty level, but you will have to check on that. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you want to go the illegal route, and you can afford not to work, you could enter the usa without telling the border guard you are going to visit your fiancee, then after about a month, get married and have her file to adjust your status. During tht time you will not be allowed to work, nor will you be allowed to leave the usa for any reason. If you leave , even for a family emergency, you will be denied entry if you try to come back. YOur marriage will receive heavy scrutiny, and the process could take up to two years. SHould you go this route, be advised that it is not the legal way, and if the INS finds out you are doing this, you will be deported. They have gotten awfully fussy, with all the fervor about illegal immigrants in the usa these days. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So, if you want to live in the usa, the best thing is to suck it up and get the right visa, the k-1 fiancee visa or the k-3 spouse visa. The other route will work, but it carries the risk of deportation, and forces your fiancee to support you for a long time, because you wont be able to work during the process. It also requires that she makes a good enough income to be able to sponsor you. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The easier thing might be for her to come to Canada, get married here, file to sponsor her here ( you dont need to meet finance requirements to sponsor a spouse in Canada, and she would be allowed to stay in the country while its being processed ) and then after a year or so, She can file from within Canada to take you back to the USA with her.The INS process for a USA citizen applying out of country to return with foreign spouse is much faster, and you two would be together in the meantime.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I married an American, we looked at me moving there before we got married, but found it much easier for him to move here. So he moved up here with very little problem. His permanent residence status is still being processed but he is allowed to work and has health care, etc, so its not that big a deal.How can a married American/Canadian couple live together by immigration with limited stress and hassle?<br >hey kateh i recently also got married but i am here on a student visa. at the end of your last comment you said that your husband moved here and although his perminant residence status is still being processed he is allowed to work and he has healthcare. how did he do this? <p><span>Report Abuse</span></p><br /> <br >Coming to America from Canada is pretty easy. If you have a valid passport it should take minimal paperwork as long as you don't get in too much trouble here. Most people have no problem moving between the two countries as long as they aren't felons. You should be able to move into your home with your new wife as soon as you get marrid. Check with the American Embassy closest to you or call an immigration lawyer to get the fine details.<br >My fianc茅 and I were in a similar situation. We actually decided to go the route of the fianc茅 visa (also called an I-129F). You file it and get engaged and you will have to be apart for that time until it is processed. I don't think you will be able to get married without being deported. I wish you the best of luck.

But how are they able to have sex with multiple people %26amp; not cheat on their spouse? Also, does cheating occur more frequently in the porn industry than another other industry?How are married porn stars able to have sex with other people %26amp; not cheat on their spouses?<br >they are so desensitized it means NOTHING to them and they don't even put off much real emotion........notice every scene the women are FAKING IT!! <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />pornstars are like prosecutors and executioners in the way that they separate their emotions and consider it a job..........ron jeremy had a difficult time maintaining a relationship but showed his deep connections to the person and notice that he really plays a ';porn role'; and a ';porn personality'; in the movies........this is by NO means the way he would be to his girl.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />pornstars fake sex and put it all on in the movies, but they often get their spouses tattoed onto themselves and some even retire from the industry after getting married, but the ones who do not feel NOTHING and when one has sex over 1000 times it means NOTHING and is just a mechanical thingHow are married porn stars able to have sex with other people %26amp; not cheat on their spouses?<br >Some porn stars do it only as a job or career and their personal life is a whole different matter. I doubt most female porn stars enjoy the sex at their work (getting gang banged, double penetrated, anal sex, sperm shot all over their face, doing with other girls when they are probably not lesbians/bisexual for real). I mean they have to separate the personal aspects of sex to do that job. But others may be swingers and actually enjoy it and even have sex with others off camera and perhaps still have a bf or be married. That's a swinger, someone who enjoys that lifestyle. But most women who get into porn are doing for the money, not for the fun of it. Now men love being a porn star, they are the ones who like it because they are getting their rocks off and fulfilling their own and every other man's fantasies! But these are usually men's fantasies, and not womens. 95% of those who watch porn are men! You will find most women object do fullfilling many or most of the acts you see in porn!<br >They are working. That's different when it is your job. Obviously you haven't seen a set. It isn't like they are in some seedy motel room. They are on stage in front of a dozen other people. You have sound men, Directors, stage hands, camera men. It's they same reason no one accuses a hooker of cheating. It's a job.<br >It is cheating and there is no two ways about it. A marriage is between a man an woman. Not man woman and whoever. CHEATING NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY. They just excuse that sick life style and accept it.<br >';Cheating'; is about lying, so no, they are just as capable as anyone else telling the truth.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Many couples are not strictly monogamous and have various agreements.<br >If you have an agreement up front in your marriage, then certain behavior may not constitute infidelity. However, dude, I'm thinking you need a hobby.<br >You might want to try asking this question in the Porn Star Forum.<br><br /><br />xoxoxoxo<br >Sex without emotion may not be considered cheating. I have heard that some prostitutes have boyfriends/husbands.<br >They are cheating. It's just that both parties were aware of the porn stars lifestyle usually before marriage, and are ok with it.<br >Porn stars marry porn stars.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If they don't, then their husbands must have a fetish that makes watching their wives get F'd by different men enjoyable.<br >They are able to separate work from their personal life. I figure that as far as cheating goes they probably cheat just the same as people that have other professions.<br >of course it's adultery, it's totally cheating if they are married.<br >I thought people in the porn industry dated and married other porn stars. If they don't, they should.<br >Easy, its the understanding that they have.<br >Its just a job to them .<li><a href='http://blond-hair-df.blogspot.com/'>blond hair</a></li><li><a href='http://www.necklace.org.cn/bead-necklace/Necklace-knli034.htm'>bead necklace</a></li>Lillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-55682691327400215892010-08-20T22:41:00.001-07:002010-08-20T22:41:41.667-07:00How much worse off are filing taxes separately when married?My bf and I are probably going to get married this year, but all his bills, support, etc are done through his business.

If you file separately you lose the earned income deduction and a few others as well. If you are in a community property state and you file separately you must add together both your incomes and divide by 2 to get your income for taxes.How much worse off are filing taxes separately when married?<br >My wife and I have been filing seperatly for several years now. It cost us more in taxes up until 2005 or 6. Since then they come out about the same as filing jointly. We don't have a great deal of income, less than 30,000 each. I don't know if higher income will make a difference.Lillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-6680133266707151122010-08-20T22:41:00.000-07:002010-08-20T22:41:16.331-07:00How soon after i get married should i send in my application for my LPR?Im planning on getting married soon and i would like to know how soon should i file my papers?My fiance' got divorced in august 2008 and we want to get married and apply for my LPR.How soon after i get married should i send in my application for my LPR?<br >It all depends on your status. Are you currently in the US or in your own country? Are you legal in the US or out of status? If you are overseas and planning on getting married in the US, has your fiance filed a K1 visa? Or are you planning to get married in your home country then move to the US?

Even if you get married on New Years Eve you are considered married for the entire year. There is no ';split'; for being married less than a full year.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Your only choices are Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately. If you file MFS you are barred from claiming the EIC. If you file MFJ and your combined income is more than the EIC ceiling you lose out on it now.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Welcome to the REAL marriage penalty. It's been cleared up for wealthy taxpayers. But two people raising kids as singles and collecting the EIC at the max level will lose out on nearly $10,000 if they get married. Thank your elected representatives for that shaft job!I got married in sep. of last year we have 3 kids how should we file to still recieve EIC credit?<br >TFTP <p><span>Report Abuse</span></p><br /> <br >Revision.....I just looked it up. Here you go. The number will be different, because it was for last year, but I believe the rules are still the same. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />';Workers who raised children in 2006 must file either Form 1040 or 1040A and must fill out and attach Schedule EIC. Workers with children cannot get the EITC/EIC if they file form 1040EZ or fail to attach Schedule EIC. Married workers must file a joint return to get the EITC/EIC. Workers who were not raising children in 2006 can file any tax form - including the 1040EZ. These workers write ';EIC'; (or the dollar amount of their credit) on the Earned Income Credit line on the tax form. They do not need to file Schedule EIC. Schedule EIC forms can be obtained by mail or downloaded from the website of the IRS: www.irs.gov Forms can also be obtained at libraries, post offices and local IRS offices.';<br >You can file as married filing separately, but if you do, neither of you can get EIC. If you file a joint return, and your joint income is still within EIC range, then you can get EIC on your joint return.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Being married for 2 months of the year is still married. What counts is your status as of 12/31/07.<br >In order to get EIC you must file as ';Married Filing Jointly';.<br><br /><br />MFS disqualifies you for this credit.<br >To claim the EIC you must file Single, Head of Household, or Married Filing Joint . You can not file Married Filing Separately. From there you would have to see if you meet the income requirements.

I just want to make her happy.What is needed to get Married on an Indian Reservation in NYC?<br >You probably need permission from the head of the reservation.<br><br /><br />AND you need someone who is registered to perform a marriage in that county/ borrough of New York (not necessarily a clergyman, just somebody who is ''registered'' at the courthouse.<br><br /><br />It looks to me like these ';Indians'; will do anything for a dollar..they are more tax-evaders than Indians:<br><br /><br />http://www.cigars-and-cigarettes.com/new鈥?/a><br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Indian Chief Heads Fight to Keep Selling Cigarettes<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Harry Wallace, age 55, chief of the Unkechaug Nation, and several other owners of shops that sell cigarettes on the tiny Poospatuck Indian reservation on the South Shore of Long Island have been sued by the City of New York.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />PS: None of her family or mine IS of direct Native decent.

Our sex drive can't tell between married and single.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />How come Christians won't admit it but secular people are open and honest about it?Why are married Christians hesitant to admit but not secular people?<br >Peer pressure. They put up an image, and at times don`t even admit to themselves that something is wrong in their marriage. <br><br /><br /> All men look and have desires. <br><br /><br /> Marriage and monogamous relationships is unnatural for humans, especially males. <br><br /><br /> It is entered into via rituals for the safety and assurance of women and young children. To further our species.<br><br /><br /> The natural response for males because of testosterone is to impregnate as many women as possible in their youth.<br><br /><br />Marriage and its rules are a large stumbling stone for young men due to their natural directive. This leads to problems.<br><br /><br /> In the past women were more passive and looked the other way for the sake of the family. They had few options. <br><br /><br />Today`s women are less forgiving.Why are married Christians hesitant to admit but not secular people?<br >Where do you get your information? <br><br /><br />Married people, and I've been one for 45 years, still enjoy beauty when they see it. It has nothing to do with commitment to comment on that beauty. <br><br /><br />Finding people attractive and lusting after them are two different things.<br><br /><br />How do you know so much about married Christians? Both my husband and I dated before we were married, and we both know that.<br><br /><br />Sorry, but some people have sex drives with a conscience. We are as open and as honest as the ';secular'; group you speak about, but we also have control over ourselves, our lives and our emotions. <br><br /><br />When you are a married, Christian person, come back again with your opinions about how things really are.<br >How come you generalize? Remember President Carter? He admitted it. Lots of Christians admit this. They do not act on the attraction the way some seculare people do. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Generalizing is ignorant.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Why are you stereotyping? <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Waiting for all your percentages and proof.......<br >To try to impress something that doesn't care.<br >This is merely your opinion about the subject.

How long should I wait before I remarry?<br >please wait. my sister did what you are contemplating and it is a disaster. now, less than a year later she is going through another divorce. there needs to be a cooling down period before jumping into another intimate relationship. find out who you are and what went wrong with the last one.

But in Spain and Belgium they can. Is the sanctity of French marriages ruined by the married gay couples in the two bordering countries, or is it only the sanctity of Belgian %26amp; Spanish marriages that's at stake?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Is the sanctity of Californian marriages secured after Prop8, or are Iowa and Vermont too close by?How far away does a married gay couple have to live to secure the sanctity of *your* marriage?<br >Unfortunately, if ANYONE else's marriage affects the sanctity of your marriage, then the problem isn't in the other person's marriage but in your own.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />For anyone who claims that gay marriage is detrimental to hetero marriage, I've got a news flash. STRAIGHT DIVORCE HAS DONE MORE TO DAMAGE THE SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE THAN A COUPLE OF QUEERS SHARING LOVE, LIFE, AND GOVERNMENT PROTECTIONS THAT WE HAVE. (And, yes, I can say queer because I say it with love. ^__^)<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So, for those who do make ridiculous claims of what gay marriage will do to straight marriage. Save your crap. Because if gay marriage affects the sanctity of your marriage, I bet my marriage does, too. Because I'm an evil Pagan married to a good Christian boy...in a Christian ceremony! For shame! Lol.How far away does a married gay couple have to live to secure the sanctity of *your* marriage?<br >Haven't you heard? Gay marriage being legal will make everyone TURN GAY!!!! People will also want to marry animals, and rocks, and trees, and you name it! IF WE ALL BECOME GAY WHO WILL MAKE CHILDREN?!??!?!?!?! ALSO IF GAYS ADOPT CHILDREN THOSE CHILDREN WILL BE GAY!!!!!<br >Sanctity of anyone's marriage doesn't depend on someone elses' marriage. Maybe there is no more logical sesnse for the straight couples regarding marriage becuase they are all stressed out in their marriages %26amp; start blaming same sex marriage couples for their flaws?<br >Gay Marriage reminds me of little kids playing 'House'. Anything is possible, once you suspend reality.<br >It doesn't matter where they are. God does not recognize their union as marriage, but as sin.<br >As long as they aren't living in my apartment I don't care.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Btw: someone is waiting for you.<br >next door is fine<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />in the bedroom with us is not<br >What mankind orchestrates in the secular world has no sanctity in the heavenly realm. God means what he says. Even if the bordering countries agree or disagree. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />There are heterosexual marriages that are ruined by a selfish disobedient breed of sorts. Marriages as it were is at stake. Prop 8. Means nothing to the Church. There is still same sex practices in many countries. Marriage does not make it right to the spiritual. God has the last word. We have broken faith with God and each other. Is gay marriage safe sex? Are all heterosexual marriage safe sex? Is it a cover up for debauchery? How far away from God can we live to secure the sanctity of our marriages? Even if we bring offerings to the Lord Almighty. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />We go to the house of God and flood his alters with tears. We go to the hospitals and weep and wail because God no longer pays attention to us. Then we say God does not exist because we want to have it our way. We say we have free will that makes us free to make choices. We are born that way? Sure. Lead by demonic persuasion of our forefathers. In us from birth to sin against God and others.God does not make us insane. We do! Lead by the spirit of damnation. Sexual sin. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />God no longer accepts anything men do with pleasure from his hands.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Because the Lord is acting as a witness between men and women in their youth. Because they have broken faith with God.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />He is mans partner the God of our marriage covenant. His not the Lord made them one from the beginning? Male and female. In flesh and spirit we are his. Why did he make us one? Because he wanted Godly offspring. Who can a woman call her wife. How can a man call his husband. That is insane and bigotry. God hates divorce. God hates the violent dismembering of one flesh of marriage. God says do not cheat. Because of cheating men and woman have burned in passion for each other. Romans 1.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Then we wonder why children are bitter and confused. Doing things unseemly at a young age. Giving into sexual promiscuity and lust for sex unprotected. Killing each other and parents. For the sins of our fathers,spirits inside all of us.Sure we all our born in sin and shaped in iniquity. We are born that way. Evil and surly. Sexually perverted. doing to others what had been done to our ancestors. Sin raises it's ugly head in our children. Gay and cheating tendencies. There is no sanctity not even in the Church. God's house has become a house of pain.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />God sees. He knows us. But we refuse to know him. We do not care what he wants. So man devises his way and the Lord directs his steps for his good or for his demise. Only by the work of the spirit in us can we cast the demons out. But many want to hold on to them. they have been accustom so long they do not want to be free. So they bring the children into their scenario. Each time one is born the spirit multiplies in number and the child's state is worse than those before him.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />They called him legion.Jesus asked him who are you? He said we are many. A legion is 3,000-6,000 in number. He is regional and territorial. Family traits. You remind me of ? Mark 5. It took one word from Christ. Come out! The demons obeyed him.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Two mommies or two daddy's. No daddy or no mommy. We are just human. Funny God called us man. It is he that gives us a female or male body. We want to mutilate it,and that for us is sin.Lillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-41935614891658368162010-08-20T22:39:00.000-07:002010-08-20T22:39:06.357-07:00How much would it cost to get married in Oregon?I live in Douglas County, Winston Oregon and my fiance' and I would like to get married real cheap.

How long have you been married?How is being married different than dating?<br >The first guy's answer is weird - I'm married and when my wife and I go on a date, we both go home afterward.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />It's different than dating because it provides the comforting security of a lifetime commitment. It is therefore a much more relaxed and worry-free relationship than dating.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I have been married for 22 years so far.How is being married different than dating?<br >Being married, you get to come home to the person you love every night. You have your best friend by your side through thick and thin. You are with the person you want to spend the rest of your life with.<br><br /><br />Also when dating you can just cut the ties and move on being married, you get a divorce and have to go though who gets what.<br><br /><br />For me I love being married. I married my best friend literally we have been best friends since i was 14, I am 24 now. To know that one person wants to spend the rest of their lives with you is an awesome feeling.<br >Marriage comes with obligation but that obligation should come out of love. With just dating, there is no obligation of any kind.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage allows you to file your taxes together and ';married filing joint'; is the hightest tax bracket, which usually means a bigger return. Dating is irrevelant when filing your taxes. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage, where the mother's last name is same as her husband's, allows your children to automatically take on the father's surname. Dating means you have to file for a name change and can result in a fight if the situation isn't discussed in detail. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage allows you to make decisions regarding your spouses health, such as being taken off life support or approving a particular surgery. Dating doesn't allow you to make any decisions regardless of age and/or how long you've been together, if your state doesn't recognize common law marriages. To tack on to that, obtaining a death certificate or getting money from social security or life insurance is relatively easy when you're married. When you're just dating, it's almost impossible. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />There are many other differences but those come to mind off hand.<br >I have been married 41 years and to this date we do not fuss or fight. If we have a disagreement we talk it out. The difference between dating and getting married is. When you marry you make a commitment and earn security with your mate. When dating there is nothing to hold you together and its like saying I can quit anytime I want. I will not quote scripture but man and woman a instructed to separate from Mother and Father and join together as one. The longer you into a relationship the more you trust and the longer your together the stronger the love builds. Security is the answer I would have to give for being married.<br >Many, many years. The difference, well for one it is a commitment that is legal on paper, and also it is honoring to God and his plan for the family. The reason why we have so much divorce accepted, teenagers having kids, men screwing everyone they can find, and the entire reason the Jerry Springer show exists is because of the lack of honor and respect for the family unit. Hope this helps. If you have doubt about the person you want to marry, then don't take the plunge. It should be forever, not for a year or a few months like these foolish and bad example celebrities!<br >Been married 10 years, been together for 12. Marriage is different b/c you have to learn to work through issues, even when you feel like running away. You also have think of your spouse's feelings first before your own and vice versa, to keep a happy union. There is no room for being selfish, and one stupid act of deception or lies, will haunt you for a long time. Where as when you are dating, you can just break up if you are unhappy....marriage you can divorce.....but there are so many more factors to consider, children, fiances etc.<br >10 years, and the diff is being together every day, no matter what, thats the diff, not too much into it, just that. You have to be very mature to be married, Oh and you get to have sex all the time, unless you get an old ladie who wants it once a day or once a week, lol<br >I have been dating my wife of 15 years for about 17 years. I still treat her the same way I did then. I open doors, be polite, call her everyday and say I love you, pull her hair out of the toilet when she is puking... LOL<br><br /><br />We still do the dating thing and we have been very happy. Being married is fun, but you gotta work at it.<br >Dating isn't serious or committed. Dating is just fun and games. At the end of a date, you go home. You can date more than one person.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Marriage is a permanent date. It involves day to day crap and learning to put up with it or change it. It means committing to one person.<br >When you're married there is feeling that you're in it together, like it's the two of you against the world. And when you argue you don't have anywhere to go so you have to really face every issue that comes up head on. It's taught me a lot about myself.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Married 1 year<br >You get a pretty ring when you're married ; ) LOL But seriously, When you're dating, everything is exciting and it seems like things speed up, but when you're married everything seems to slow down.<br >There isn't enough room on your screen for me to tell you the differences. Just know, everything is different!!!<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Some good different, some bad different. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />married 12 years and still counting........<br >Dating - 70% Committed<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Married - 100% Committed (Becos the law says so)<br >u together 24 /7 now its gonna b different give it time ....not married but been together 30 years<br >dating is all about you<br><br /><br />marriage is all about your spouse, which you enjoy!<br >Commitment. There's no revolving exit door.<br >How is owning different than renting?<br >When dating you get to go home after the date.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Married 25 years <br><br /><br />Divorced 5 years<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I like dating<br >Haha...ha...ha...sigh...<br >well decision making is a two person job you, your together all the time you share your space<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />4 yearsLillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-66799144882863577482010-08-20T22:37:00.001-07:002010-08-20T22:37:26.636-07:00How can a married American/Canadian couple live together by immigration with limited stress and hassle?My girlfriend and I want to get married. thing is I live in Canada and she lives in United States. We both want to live together but we are having trouble figuring out how the immigration process works. We basically want to know if we can get married and then live in the US together... and then proceed to do the immigration paperwork without being deported, or if we will have to live apart until after the process has completed. We would greatly appreciate any information that can be given. Thank you very much in advanced and God bless you.How can a married American/Canadian couple live together by immigration with limited stress and hassle?<br >Please be very careful. The first poster gave you information that will screw up your chances of being together.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />You may not legally move to the USA until after your fiancee files for a visa for you. Technically, you arent even allowed to legally visit, since you have an American fiancee. If you make the mistake of telling the US border guards you are entering the country to visit your fiancee, or you are entering in order to get married, they will deny you entry. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Your fiancee will have to file for a k-1 visa for you to move to the USA and it will take several months. During tht time you will not be allowed to visit her. She will also have to be able to prove she makes enough money to sponsor you. I think the current rate is one and one half times the poverty level, but you will have to check on that. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you want to go the illegal route, and you can afford not to work, you could enter the usa without telling the border guard you are going to visit your fiancee, then after about a month, get married and have her file to adjust your status. During tht time you will not be allowed to work, nor will you be allowed to leave the usa for any reason. If you leave , even for a family emergency, you will be denied entry if you try to come back. YOur marriage will receive heavy scrutiny, and the process could take up to two years. SHould you go this route, be advised that it is not the legal way, and if the INS finds out you are doing this, you will be deported. They have gotten awfully fussy, with all the fervor about illegal immigrants in the usa these days. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />So, if you want to live in the usa, the best thing is to suck it up and get the right visa, the k-1 fiancee visa or the k-3 spouse visa. The other route will work, but it carries the risk of deportation, and forces your fiancee to support you for a long time, because you wont be able to work during the process. It also requires that she makes a good enough income to be able to sponsor you. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />The easier thing might be for her to come to Canada, get married here, file to sponsor her here ( you dont need to meet finance requirements to sponsor a spouse in Canada, and she would be allowed to stay in the country while its being processed ) and then after a year or so, She can file from within Canada to take you back to the USA with her.The INS process for a USA citizen applying out of country to return with foreign spouse is much faster, and you two would be together in the meantime.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I married an American, we looked at me moving there before we got married, but found it much easier for him to move here. So he moved up here with very little problem. His permanent residence status is still being processed but he is allowed to work and has health care, etc, so its not that big a deal.How can a married American/Canadian couple live together by immigration with limited stress and hassle?<br >hey kateh i recently also got married but i am here on a student visa. at the end of your last comment you said that your husband moved here and although his perminant residence status is still being processed he is allowed to work and he has healthcare. how did he do this? <p><span>Report Abuse</span></p><br /> <br >Coming to America from Canada is pretty easy. If you have a valid passport it should take minimal paperwork as long as you don't get in too much trouble here. Most people have no problem moving between the two countries as long as they aren't felons. You should be able to move into your home with your new wife as soon as you get marrid. Check with the American Embassy closest to you or call an immigration lawyer to get the fine details.<br >My fianc茅 and I were in a similar situation. We actually decided to go the route of the fianc茅 visa (also called an I-129F). You file it and get engaged and you will have to be apart for that time until it is processed. I don't think you will be able to get married without being deported. I wish you the best of luck.

He filled taxes as ';jointly'; electronically and got a stimlus check that corresponded to two people plus my daughters. <br><br /><br />Arent their any security guidelines for this mistake not to happen? Is it that easy? What can I do about this? <br><br /><br />He seems to not know that it was wrong because according to him they didnt ask for my signature.How did my my ex file as married filling jointly electronically without my permission?<br >Just call the IRS and let them know that he filed fraudulently. You have no way of knowing what he reported on that return and since it is at this moment considered your return--you are legally responsible as much as he is for the information on it. <br><br /><br />The IRS's number is 1 800 829 1040. If you don't believe me, look it up. I'd feel better for you too. <br><br /><br />As far as the stimulus goes, it was supposed to be an advance payment off of this years taxes and you should take up the question with the IRS since he filed without your permission.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />For the poster above me, did you personally file your own taxes last year? If he filed married filing separately the IRS would require you to file the same way. If he filed married filing jointly, one of you would not have been able to e-file and you'd be hashing it out with the IRS trying to prove who was in the right.<br><br /><br /> However, if you can prove that you were unmarried and had sole custody of the kids--you should be able to get it all straightened out if it is a fraud case.How did my my ex file as married filling jointly electronically without my permission?<br >What signature. He efiled. The IRS can't tell whose fingerprints were on the keyboard.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you had your own filing requirement, you would have filed on your own and the duplicate use of the SSN would have been obvious.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />If you are filing now and not getting the stimulus because you filed last year when you say you didn't, write the service center and explain that your ex filed an ';invalid joint return.'; You can ';win'; if you can show you weren't living with him, didn't have any income to file and didn't benefit from the refund. You will lose if the tax return included any income for you, especially if you had income of more than $3400 and didn't file on your own.<br >My ex did the same thing. Except he was at an HR Block office and the guy told him to claim our kids (I have sole custody) and I don't know how they got away with putting me on it. Long story short....I am waiting for my $4000 2007 refund from the IRS. It looks like I am out the rebate ($1800 for me and our 4 kids) because the jerk got that too.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Do your kids live with you? For more than 6 months of the year? Do you have any income? I made under $30K that year and was qualified for the EIC, the child credit, etc. and that meant a big refund. If you are working, you need to look into what you might be entitled to - it could be quite a lot of money.Lillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-67820549739796448772010-08-20T22:36:00.001-07:002010-08-20T22:36:35.409-07:00What is the difference in the US tax code between married and unmarried individuals and couples?I realize the answer to this question may be more difficult and complicated that is permissible in this format. But I have often heard of ';marriage benefits'; in the tax code, exactly what might people be speaking of? Lets assume that the couple has no children. To get more specific, how will the tax code treat two people that each make 50,000 dollars a year differently if they are married (thus, joint income becomes 100,000 dollars a year). Is it better to get married, under US federal tax laws?<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Thanks!What is the difference in the US tax code between married and unmarried individuals and couples?<br >if you have no kids and 2 incomes, the IRS eats your money. If you have one income and no kids, the IRS eats your money at a slower rate...<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />people who have kids get more (or at least some) of their money back.What is the difference in the US tax code between married and unmarried individuals and couples?<br >At $50k per year each there would be little if any difference in total tax between two single persons and a married couple filing jointly.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />A single person earning $100k per year who married a person with $0 income would see their tax bill drop dramatically, by nearly 50%.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />Most of the tax benefits skew towards single parents making between about $15k and $30k each. If such as couple, each with one or two children, were to marry their total tax bill would rise significantly. The worst hit would be two single parents each with 3 children and about $20k in income each. They'd stand to lose as much as $10,000 per year in tax benefits if they married.<br >Get a copy of the tax rate tables. Look up the taxes owed for single vs married.

Cause me and my boyfriend plan to get engaged when i enter college but not get married til we are out of college, Can we still live in those dorms?<br><br /><br />The second part of my question is this; Is it more expensive to live in the UGA dorms/apartments for married couples, or just get an apartment on campus?<br><br /><br />Please answer, and thanks ahead of time!How much does it cost to live in UGA dorms for married couples?<br >The rules do allow for domestic partners to occupy family housing. See the FAQ section under the first hyperlink in the source section below.<br><br /><br />The rates range from $510-$572/month for a 1 BR/ 1Ba apartment. Each apartment includes an electric range, frost-free refrigerator, air conditioner, electric heating, high speed Internet access and cable television service. You will save money living on campus as you won't have the commute to the campus at least once a day, more if your schedules are different. ';Just get an apartment on campus'; is not an option. You would have to be off campus to do that. Housing on campus is all run by UGA.Lillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551225515477760045.post-66713276368499760132010-08-20T22:35:00.001-07:002010-08-20T22:35:19.846-07:00Does anyone know what charity care is and how it works?I was denied medicaid because i am married and my husband works. but his insurance does not cover maternity costs. anyway my temp agency covers $5000. but it won't be enough to cover delivery. what is charity care and how can i apply? i am only 19 and very clueless as what to do now! i don't want to get stuck with a large bill when my baby arrives. someone please help!Does anyone know what charity care is and how it works?<br >I don't know much, but I do know Charity Care is geared towards low-income families who are not eligible for medicaid (often times because of citizenship issues; you can't get medicaid if you're not a citizen but Charity Care can step in if you have low income). If you have insurance already, however, I'm not sure if you will be eligible.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />But the best thing you can do is check with your clinic or hospital to find out about income levels and what type of assistance may be available to you. If I'm not mistaken, Charity Care is filled out at the hospital. Doesn't hurt to apply! Good luck!Does anyone know what charity care is and how it works?<br >Slw what a little b**** you are. Theres more of a higher percent of Americans that dont have health insurance then do. So in your sick little mind only people with health coverage should have a baby? Having a baby cost over $10,000 and thats not somthing anyone can just pull out of their a** <p><span>Report Abuse</span></p><br /> <br >Found this, hope it helps!<br><br /><br />http://www.state.nj.us/health/cc/index.s鈥?/a><br >to be honest with you if you couldn't afford it then you shouldn't of gotten pregnant. Birth control wouldv'e been a cheaper option for you. sorry but sometimes the truth hurts.<br >just do it!!!!<br >This is a tough one. One one hand, it is your child. Should your next door neighbor cover it? Should the lady down the street? This is really something that you got yourself into and as such, you need to be responsible for. Wouldn't it be nice if someone else could pay for my speeding ticket? Charity care is this: other people paying for something you did.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />On the other hand, I've been in your boat and it's scary. It's important to have SOME PLAN for your medical costs; after all, what if there are complications? You could get stuck with a pretty hefty bill. The only thing I can think of is this: quickly get a job with a company that offers group coverage that also has full pregnancy and delivery and dependent care coverage. Even if you have to pay a hefty premium. You really do need coverage with this baby. <br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />My daughter got herself into the same mess and was able to do just what I described above. Her insurance premiums were 1,500 dollars a month. No joke. But when she ended up having an emergency C-section and the baby had a health problem that required an extra-long hospital stay, she was so relieved to have full coverage. Otherwise, she'd owe money for the next 20 years and her credit would be totally screwed.<br><br /><br /><br><br /><br />I wish you the very best of luck... :) Hope you and baby are healthy and happy.Lillianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04923265521346176810noreply@blogger.com0
