You've probably got a woman smarter than you! ;>) There's no rule you have to get married after just a year of seeing each other, especially if one or both of you is pretty young. Be patient, enjoy the relationship, and see what happens.

Marriage is a sacred vow. Unfortunately, it is tossed around by too many in this day and age as just another day and another credit card bill. A chance for a big party and a chance to impress your family and frends. Be thankfull that she spoke her honest opinion, it is much easier now then down the road after you got married. Life is short, live it to it's fullest but at the same time
"Keep it real, keep it cool and never take for granted your day on this earth as it can be snatched from you in an instant".

You know what I have been doinh here lately when I get in a bad mood? Instead of getting stupid drunk and posting anger fueled threads on message boards (inside joke / statement - many on here know I did that for over a year) I reach out to someone. A simple hello to a stranger, a long walk etc..
All this negative stuff that is happening to you is nothing but a memory today. Now, get up, dust yourself off and go to work making new memories.

Boy, ain't that the truth!

Wac, there's some strip bars right around the corner from Churchill. Save some of your wagering dollars and check them out. Maybe you can cash there .

Believe me, being legally stuck with the same person every day is not anything to be missed. Consider yourself lucky.

there are hundreds of races to play each day, how many chances in your life will you have at landing that perfect girl? it would be a shame to miss that chance because you were playing a PK3 at Mountaineer.
What if you find the perfect girl WHILE hitting a pick 4 at Churchill Downs?

What if you hit the CD pick 4 while having hot sex with the perfect girl, and watching the pick 4 on TV with Christine Oliveras on the show?

Consider it the apex of your relationship....even if it happened at Churchill.

HaHa, well at a minimum you're a lucky man. I'd mark that day on the calender.

Its even better if she was the one who handicapped the PK4 for you!

Well thats great, didn't know you were serious.
Good to know that it is possible to meet a member of the opposite sex while doing the thing you enjoy, especially in this sport!

I'm starting to believe now that maybe it's not so far-fetched...

I say this in all honestly.
I would prefer to hit the BC Pick 6(or even the late Pick 4) over finding the person I am supposed to spend the rest of my life with(if that person even exists).

marriage is a bad idea in most cases.
anyone can get married, but you have to be a damn good capper in most years to hit the BC Pick 6.

lol,
well considering that I have spent my life in Texas, Missouri, and So IL, I have seen a lot of young dumb kids get married.
maybe you see that anywhere you live, but my point is that anyone can do it.

I want to accomplish something, and Im talking about something bigger than the early pick 4 at Aqueduct.
marriage can often get in the way of accomplishment from what I can tell.

well,
thats a little tougher to say.
I dont play tris.
I live in TX and play SAM often so anyone who knows that track knows they advertise the hell out of their rolling pick 3s(they only have 1 pick 4).
so I thats what I play R-Su.

I really dont play pick 3s regularly anywhere but there.
I almost exclusively play pick 4s and w/p.

Id take Natalie Portman over a really nice pick 3, but not a pick 4.

btw,
the pick 3s were paying nicely Sat at SAM.

Im not going to redboard and say what I hit, but unfortunately I failed to hit any of the big ones early in the card.

they are very hittable though for anyone who puts in the time at SAM and I would say its one of the better values for your wagering dollar.
id encourage any of you to take a look at SAM.
