Is this the same as “shit or get off the pot”?
Or is this literal advice about going to clubs?
Regarding marriage and relationships
I saw a reddit thread many years ago before I met my wife asking for advice from long-time couples.
I was single at the time, and was pretty comfortable with that, not that I wasn’t interested in being in a relationship, but it wasn’t a priority for me and I never had much luck picking up girls.
Most of it was the usual stuff about communication, and sharing housework, respect, and all of that.
But the one that stood out to me was
“Don’t forget to date your wife”
A good many years later, I managed to stumble my way bass-ackwards into dating my now-wife. A few years later we were married.
And for a lot of couples, dating kind of slows down at that point. One or both of them stop putting in effort, and they just kind of stagnate and drift apart.
That’s far from the only reason relationships fail of course, but I think that’s a bigger part in a lot of cases than many people think.
So I always keep my ear to the ground for cool events, restaurants, shows, places to go, things to do, etc. and make sure that there’s always something coming up on the horizon for us to look forward to. Sometimes it’s a simple dinner at a restaurant we’ve been to countless times, sometimes it’s a big elaborate day out where we get dressed up, find our way to a couple different nice bars and restaurants, walk around a museum, see a show or to an orchestra performance, etc.
I try to have at least one thing planned a month, not always successfully, but more often than not, and we sometimes squeeze in another little spontaneous date night or two here and there. Most of the time we’re out doing something fun as a couple at least once a week.
Good job. I share your approach. I just took my love, my life and my wife out for a date a couple days ago. All her boyfriend wants to do is fuck but I take her dinner and a movie.
Adulterers must be stoned to death in public.
Executing people is always unethical. But in this case it’s not even necessarily adultery, it could be polyamory (or some other ENM).
“Don’t shit where you eat.”
Its revers ,i think
“Shit where you eat.”
“Be excellent to each other”
And party on dudes.
There is no point in being self defeating, I already have all the treasures and items I would get from that battle

Don’t be an asshole and if you have to ask yourself, “Am I being an asshole” then you’re probably being an asshole.
There are plenty of people who worry about being an asshole and end up never standing up for themselves. I don’t think it’s as simple as “if you’re worried you’re the asshole, you probably are”.
Well no. Of course not. It’s significantly more nuanced with a lot of gray area. It’s an aphorism it’s supposed to be short.
But ummm thanks?
So, about that asshole thing…
Dude. You knew what my comment was, you knew it was an aphorism and you still decided to leave that pointless pedantic obvious comment.
The aktually guy is exactly what you sounded like. So from one asshole to another, once again:
Remember that any advice your parent’s give you is a minimum of 20 years past the ‘best by’ date.
Parents
Life: Being poor ain’t no excuse for being filthy
Work: if you’re gonna go down, take people with you. (thanks HR lady!)
Don’t make promises when you’re happy; don’t make decisions when you’re sad.
If it’s worth doing right it’s also worth doing half-assed.
To me this means it’s better to let go of perfectionism lest it becomes paralyzing. Strive for the best conceivable result all you want but be content with the best achievable result as well.
“Never skimp on anything that goes between you and the ground.”
Working hard is pointless and everyone should go fuck themselves.
