We have a deck now! ![Big Grin](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Well it's taken over a month for the guys we hired to do in their free time, but it's finally "almost" finished. The first shots are from today. You can see the missing handrail on the steps and you can see the pad where the hot tub is going to be in a couple weeks (it's on order). Our A/C unit had to be moved and that guy showed up once the deck was half-way built so you can see it before and after.
I'll post a couple progress pics too, from the last couple weeks. You'll see my wife couldn't wait to order furniture and use it (tons of furniture, too). They're also going to build a section of fence at the end of the concrete pad.

i'm curious to see Jason's reasoning behind getting married, if spirituality/his soul has had no part in it...

1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
Regardless, "till death do you part" should be reworded as "till divorce paperwork is signed do you part"...
Sanctity of marriage indeed... But I guess if it's just between a man and a woman...

i'm waiting for quite a while(read: a few years) after meeting someone before i'm willing to commit that far...to do any less, in my opinion is downright stupid.
but that's just me and my experiences.

God told me to. TONS of reasons.
But I was complete before marrage, nothing to complete.

But from all the things I've heard about "Soulmate," it causes me to define it differently. It has connotations that I can't really agree with. It's not exactly a biblical idea.

I'd suggest you do some research on the word yourself, don't just go by hearsay... :P

temptation was the reason i got married. or i should say the reason we got together in the first place...her getting pregnant was the reason we got married. that and the fact that we actually like eachother helps

Hey, at least it ended up working for you two. I know many other couples that ended their relationships when that sort of thing happens
![Big Grin](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
And thanks for your statement, since your reasoning is just another example of why my 1/2 + 1/2 = 1 statement is true...
You had lust, but no partner... Likewise for herself... You two got together and tapped the **** out of each other, provided yourselves an offspring and now you're married... "An absence now filled"
I rest my case.

The word "soulmate" has many definitions, no clear cut one... It could mean anything from feeling that you and your partner have been together in previous lives (reincarnation) to just having strong spritual ties with someone.
I'd suggest you do some research on the word yourself, don't just go by hearsay... :P

You're arguing semantics now :P
The generally accepted meaning of the word "Soulmate" around me, from the people I have spoken with, is not just "having strong spiritual ties with somone" It's more of a "been together in previous lives" and a "we met on the astral plane".
Strong spiritual ties with somone isnt a soulmate, otherwise I'd have a lot of soulmates. Should I be calling Aryeh my soulmate, or my funk soul brother, right about now?

1) Revert to my old life and have sex with whatever girl was chained to my bed that day
2) Continue to enjoy being single (I was really loving it at that point, I really didnt want to get married, or even be in a relationship)
3) Have sex with the woman and not marry her (temptation was there)
4) Marry her and be stuck with her FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE (God was pointing to this one)
I dont think sex was the motive :P

Wiki states:
Soulmate (or soul mate) is a term sometimes used to designate someone with whom one has a feeling of deep affinity, friendship, love, strong intimacy, sexuality, or compatibility.
A related concept is that of the twin flame or twin soul - thought to be the ultimate soulmate, the one and only other half of one's soul, for which all souls are driven to find and join.
However, not everyone who uses these terms intends them to carry such mystical connotations; they are sometimes used simply as an expression of strong emotional feeling for someone.
Doing your own research is fundamental

PS. You might want to describe your marriage in a bit of a happier tone next time. Making it sound like God forced you into being stuck with her for the rest of your life doesn't sound too nice...
