Sooo, I'm getting married on Saturday. I know there's a good amount of married folk here in SE. Any marriage advice to impart? Pearls of wisdom and such?

    do not invite any old people if you do this.
    unless you're into that kind of thing.

    congrats and good luck

    if you haven't already, for the love of god please talk about money

    like who is responsible for paying what, what happens if either one of you lose your job, how money gets spent for fun, don't assume that you both agree

    Take some time getting used to being married before you have kids and the divorce becomes an even uglier affair.

    If there is any tension what so ever at any point in the marriage, sleep with her best friends and/or sisters.

    I find this excellent advice as I am a complete narcissist.

    though in a way I'd be disturbed by meeting someone similar to me.

    This is terrible advice.

    Not everyone has a sister or even a best friend.

    ...but we all came from mothers.

    it takes at least that long to settle into a groove where you're comfortable with each other and your new life together, finances are stable, housekeeping roles are settled, and so on

    basically, you should be married to each other for a while before you throw another wrench into the gears

    some people even recommend seven years to be sure you don't get the itch and break up

    cheating is the cruelest thing a person can do, so never even let it enter you head no matter how much you and her are fighting.

    good luck

    communication is all the important
    as is frequent sex

    so, intercourse on all levels, really

    the first couple years are generally the most challenging
    i think

    start ogling women in public in the most obvious way possible, and apologize to her afterwards, so she's used to you being really obvious when checking out ladies. later, scale it back and she'll never notice when you discretely check out pretty ladies in public. this tip brought to you by cosmo

    also, be sure to apply perfume on the back of your neck. and never start texting/e-mailing the guy till after a few dates and some physical stuff happens, or you'll come off as too needy

    wait, what're we talking about again?
