Title: Don't get married
Post by: Army of One on July 17, 2016, 06:01:53 AM
From the misc, fucking brutal
"
I was married twice, both ended pretty much the same way. the first one cleaned me out but i wised up come the second one.

Either way, it sucks.

felt like a prisoner every day. They will just about 100% of the time get depression which will include endless crying, yelling, freaking out and emotional roller coastering.

Come home for a nice relaxing evening after a hard days work? oh hell no. not unless relaxing is getting bitched out for something you have no control over and then a fit r crying. You try to console her and hel and get bitched out for it. just no winning.

You mention she should get some medical help and of course, **** hits the fan over that, how dare you.

I am not talking one day of this, i am talking real life, years of this, every day.

this is what married guys go through. not all but i would say the majority of them do. its horrible. to be honest, when you watch shows about guys in solitary confinement, you get jealous.

Finally get her to the doctor and he give her some meds. she is back to the normal person you married. that lasts a few months until she meets someone new and divorces you, of course, blaming the whole time because you didnt support her or some other nonsense.

Nowe of course, the divorce is not just a simple come home and you house is empty thing, oh hell no. its a slow torturous process where she can blame you for everything while accepting no responsibility for her actions.

they really should make divorce papers like some award type document with gold leaf and stuff so you could display it proudly. Its like escaping from a columbian prison, srs. you are still scared and cant believe you made it out with even the clothes on your back.

All you have do is observe your male friends and family members that are married.  The majority of them are miserable.

There are more and more tattooed, narcissistic, fat-assed, loud-mouthed whores today than ever before.  These women are not marriageable.  It only gets worse from here.

Then, there's the financial risk.  I can't imagine having to give 50% of my assets to an ex-wife in a divorce.  It's much worse if kids are involved.

Most guys marry the woman because they like fucking her and can tolerate her being around, once she gets ugly and/or the sex dries up, and there is no compatibility or personality underneath then it's just a matter of time.

So why get married at all?... just bang her and send her home when you're done.  No fuss, no muss.

People change.  If married, there's a price to be paid when they change... divorce.  It's just not worth it.

Maybe look at the ones who are in happy marriages or good wives and see what they have in common.

I suspect this is a defect in the person choosing as much as in the woman.  Why are you choosing someone who will get fat and depressed?  Maybe pick a chick who likes to take care of herself.  And take a look at her mom first whydontcha.

The only reason a man should spend even one second of his existence on this planet thinking of getting married is if he wants a family. And even then it's usually a bad idea. Almost all the advantages of being married go to the woman.
Why do you think it's always the woman that's in a rush and doing the pressuring to get married? Because deep inside every man knows that marriage is a trap. Think of all the guys you know and how many of them are truly happily married and would do it again. I bet it's 20% tops. And 90% of that 20% are beta bitches.

I'll never marry but not for the reasons typically talked about on getbig but simply because what is the fucking point? It dosent add anything at all to your relationship except making it harder to seperate if it all goes tits up. It's a piece of paper and a bitch taking your name? I fail to see the benefit

“By the time we grow up we become masters at dissimulation, at cultivating a self that the world cannot probe. But we pay a price. After years of turning people away, of protecting our inner self, of cultivating it by living in a different world, of furnishing this world with our fantasies and dreams—lo and behold we find that we are hopelessly separated from everyone else. We have become victims of our own art. We touch people on the outsides of their bodies, and they us, but we cannot get at their insides and cannot reveal our insides to them. This is one of the great tragedies of our interiority—it is utterly personal and unrevealable. Often we want to say something unusually intimate to a spouse, a parent, a friend, communicate something of how we are really feeling about a sunset, who we really feel we are—only to fall strangely and miserably flat. Once in a great while we succeed, sometimes more with one person, less or never with others. But the occasional break-through only proves the rule. You reach out with a disclosure, fail, and fall back bitterly into yourself. We emit huge globs of love to our parents and spouses, and the glob slithers away in exchange of words that are somehow beside the point of what we are trying to say. People seem to keep bumping up against each other with their exteriors and falling away from each other. Take even the sexual act—the most intimate merger given to organisms. For most people, even for their entire lives, it is simply a joining of exteriors. The insides melt only in the moment of orgasm, but even this is brief, and a melting is not a communication. It is a physical overcoming of separateness, not a symbolic revelation and justification of one’s interior. Many people pursue sex precisely because it is a mystique of the overcoming of the separateness of the inner world, and they go from one partner to another because they can never quite achieve “it." So the endless interrogations: “What are you thinking about right now—me? Do you feel what I feel? Do you love me?” Ernest Becker

This is probably true.

I'll stay with a woman now, but I won't get married again. No real purpose in it. If you live in a common law state, you may want to figure out how to get around it, but otherwise, if the chick is cool and you like being around her. Just keep doin that.

Marriage is pointless.

It depends on how materialistic you are and at what age.

I've been divorced for almost 10 years now.

It was the absolute best thing that happened to me in regards to the interpersonal relationships. It takes some time to get back to an even balance in regards to finances. After you pay out attorney fees and give up 1/2 your assets, well. Let's just say that you have to recover from that.

Once you have though, it's the best thing.

I'm not upset I got divorced at all.

When they return home the wife is just so happy to see them and be with them, they are never around for long enough periods for the real marriage bullshit to settle in...then back to work for another 9 months, seems to be the perfect recipe ;D

When you consider the 50% divorce rate and then consider the percentage of the 50% who stay together, for one reason or another, but aren't happy, it's hard not to conclude that most Marriages don't have a happy ending.

Some of the most brilliant men who walked planet Earth couldn't understand women. Why? Because emotionally women as a whole are bi/polar mentally ill. And brilliant men understand that it's wasted energy with extremely low diminishing returns. Men who think they're in very healthy marriages simply are use to putting up with nonsense and in most cases just play the father figure to their childlike mate...It's an ego thing for these guys. The  smarter women who want to stay married know how to stroke the ego of their husband and let him think he's the "man of the house" and everything is great. They slide into the role that the husband expects them to be in...

If you're not going to have kids, there's really no reason at all to get married.  Unless she is loaded.

Having kids is the main cause of stress and strife in most marriages.
I never had 'em and never had a horrible experience getting divorced.
My wife and  often joke about the sorry state of affairs most married with children are in.
I've seen plenty of successful men that marry a woman and she becomes a mom and everything changes.

Plus, you need to marry someone with an equal career.
For example, my ex-wife was a board certified psychologist  with a PhD and good career.
When we divorced , we each took our car, sold the townhouse , had separate credit cards and split.
No hard feelings, no debt owed either way.

So why get married ?
Love , companionship and partnership.

My (current) wife is a  senior VP executive of her section at a major bank
I was a college physics teacher and just retired.
We are both previously divorced and neither of us had kids.

By combining our assets were have been able to obtain more then being single.
Plus, she's my best friend and we love sharing a simple, wholesome lifestyle.
It's a cold , lonely world and it's nice to spend my life with a loving partner at my side.

For my wife and I ,  our lifestyle with marriage as loving, equal partners, works.
BUT, for those younger guys I'd advise against any form of traditional marriage with children.
Stay single unless you meet a decent woman you're attracted to ,  who can also be your best friend.

AGAIN, don't have kids unless you really  feel called to be a parent.

I agree and know plenty of couples that have zero passion for their spouse.
My wife and I always wonder why the fuk do they remain married.

One of her co-workers admitted his marriage sucked while drinking at an office Christmas party.
He went on to tell us, they haven't had sex in over 7 years and rarely talk.
I asked him why he stayed married and he said it was for his kids.
Wow, that's pathetic and while it's a drastic example, his loveless marriage with kids is common.

No, youre wrong. The main strife in marriage and the number one reason for divorce is money issues.

However, having kids may create the money issue.

My wife and I were on our honeymoon a few yrs back and having a great time.
I smiled at her and said;
" You know, we're spending some our kids college fund on this trip don't you?"
She gave me a puzzled look  so I quickly said ;
" Oh wait a minute, we don't have any kids and we've already been to college. Party on ! "

I respect your choice with regards to not having kids. Hopefully children aren't part of the "traditional crap" you speak of. I agree that having children should not be a given. As you mention, kids can bring stress to a marriage....but they also can bring joy.

As I said, kids may create the money issue, but the number one reason people give for divorce is money issues, not kid issues.

But its really all nonlinear and connected. Most people don't get a divorced directly because of their children. They may get a divorce for reasons attached to having kids, such as money issues. Again, its nonlinear.

I don't think marriage has to equal kids, but I personally would probably not get married if I wasn't planning on having kids.  I certainly wouldn't do it over and over again, but to each his own.  Everyone has their own plan.

I'll never marry but not for the reasons typically talked about on getbig but simply because what is the fucking point? It dosent add anything at all to your relationship except making it harder to seperate if it all goes tits up. It's a piece of paper and a bitch taking your name? I fail to see the benefit

You can read my previous posts to see my view of enjoying marriage but no kids.

Guess what? Don't get married ! Unless you want a woman to be your partner and best friend in life, it's a mistake.
The traditional ideas of marriage suck. The idea that the man must be the one to make most of the $$ is silly.

I was only married 2x before this one and had good reasons for getting divorced both times.
Cliff notes :
 First wife started to REALLY want kids 2-3 years AFTER we got married. I never did, so we got divorced.

The 2nd wife started screwing around and wanted a variety of men to have sex with.
She was willing to have me do the same and I wasn't interested in doing that.
I actually prefer being monogamous and she didn't. No hard feelings , since we were open and honest.
But we had to get divorced .

I respect your choice with regards to not having kids. Hopefully children aren't part of the "traditional crap" you speak of. I agree that having children should not be a given. As you mention, kids can bring stress to a marriage....but they also can bring joy.
Thanks. If one is called to have children it will be a "labor of love".
My wife and I were not called but accept others were.

"Traditional crap" is the stuff some couples "just do" because it's always been done in married life LOL.

Maybe look at the ones who are in happy marriages or good wives and see what they have in common.

I suspect this is a defect in the person choosing as much as in the woman.  Why are you choosing someone who will get fat and depressed?  Maybe pick a chick who likes to take care of herself.  And take a look at her mom first whydontcha.

Yes, you can cherry pick and find some good marriages and good women, but the stats speak for themselves.  The divorce rate is closer to 60% than 50%.  I am not willing to risk my life savings for steady pussy.

Post by: Howard on July 17, 2016, 02:42:58 PM
As I said, kids may create the money issue, but the number one reason people give for divorce is money issues, not kid issues.

But its really all nonlinear and connected. Most people don't get a divorced directly because of their children. They may get a divorce for reasons attached to having kids, such as money issues. Again, its nonlinear.

Excellent point!

My pet peeve is how so many declare and believe that having kids is "inevitable" with sex and /or marriage.
If a couple wants kids and does so, that's great. Obviously, many couples love being parents.

The "all or none" thinking ,  marriage = having children, is what bugs me.

Ya know  it always bugged me that so many meathedz assume you have to take drugs to make any muscle gains.

Live on your own terms and do things you're own way, is my motto.

Most guys marry the woman because they like fucking her and can tolerate her being around, once she gets ugly and/or the sex dries up, and there is no compatibility or personality underneath then it's just a matter of time.

It doesn't have to be that way or result in children!

We are getting older and won't looks exactly the same . Ok, that's life and she my soul mate.

When they return home the wife is just so happy to see them and be with them, they are never around for long enough periods for the real marriage bullshit to settle in...then back to work for another 9 months, seems to be the perfect recipe ;D

Do you have any thoughts about why divorce is so high? It seems to have been on an upward spiral since WWII. Do you think women being able to earn as much as men and thus able to support themselves is a contributor to the high divorce rate?

I apologize for stereotyping but don't many African America women have children sans marriage? CNN's Don Lemon says more than 72 percent of African-American births are out of wedlock. This being said, according to the National Vital Statistics Report, birth rates in the U.S. are declining across the board - with little difference based on race or ethnicity.

Absolutely. Females don't have the same capacity for loyalty, generally, that males do. As such, if fundamentals of survival can be obtained/achieved without the requirement of a man, her likelihood to remain with a single male diminishes, greatly.

If a woman has a good job and lives in a modern society, a male companion's worth is only in being just that, a companion. When/if the dude no longer satisfies her constantly-changing/-evolving emotional and physical needs, her enticement to "work it out" dwindles to ... shared memories?

For a broad, this is usually not near enough.

Granted, some couples were meant to be married and have happy, meaningful lives as parents.

What chaps my ass is how so many act like married with children is the ultimate existence for a happy life.

For example, I've known plenty of guys who were quite happy living a single life.
They develop feelings for some girl and think about "settling down*" with her.
That* means marriage, 2.2 children, 3 Br House w/mortgage and mini van in the driveway.

Why is it so all or none when it comes to married lifestyle vs single lifestyle?

Seriously, I never understood the desire for the 2 extreme lifestyles.
Why is being single associated with a partying, carefree lifestyle , living on the edge.
While married must equals a mind numbing existence raising kids riding around in a mini van?

There is a lot of truth in what you say. My mom maintained that men 'fell' harder and were less likely to recover from a separation quickly than women were. For reasons I shouldn't go into, I believe she knew what she was talking about.

Marriage doesn't need to be all or none. A lot of unfortunate folks fall into the trap of believing this, which is why they often end up being unhappy and/or divorced. My wife and I definitely had an unconventional marriage compared to many during those times. I believe accepting each other, warts and all, was key to the success of our relationship.

Married 10 years and have two kids... couldn't be happier in my life right now.

It's all about the mate you choose... yes if you choose someone who is an absolute fuck up you can't expect to have it end on a positive note.  Choose a woman who brings just as much to the table as you do, and I'm not talking financially. I'm talking everything.... emotionally, intelligence, care, fun.

Yeah it's not always a cake walk, yes there are ups and downs, yes many times you'll want to kill each other, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.

It's not for everyone, I've said that a million times, and if you want to stay single then good for you, enjoy it... nobody is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to get married.

I proposed to my wife the very next day after I graduated college and I never looked back.  She has been by my side countless times.... moved across  the world for me to a county she didn't want to live in because I wanted to pursue my career.  Then when I spent three and a half years doing my PhD, she was the primary bread winner in the house... but that never once changed the dynamics of things... overall financial management was still handled by me as it always has been, then when I finished she gave up her successful career because she wanted me to follow my dreams and again she  moved with me to Silicon Valley because we had a good opportunity out here.  When I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer she researched the shit out of it... and found me the best doctor in the country , and when we met with him and he was telling me about my surgery , I had only one question, she had like 25 and wanted to know every single detail because the man she loves was going through something tough, (my question was, how soon after the surgery can I lift?)

I haven't even talked about her family which treat me as their son and have truly been incredible to me.

I know on getbig it's not cool to talk about how much you love marriage... but I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I often tell my wife jokingly, that if I didn't have her and the kids, i would be rolling around in a brand new Corvette.  But honestly, I'll take my kids sitting on my lap and telling me they love me while they poop their diapers and their pee seeping through onto my clothes any day over the Corvette... which I'm certain I will still get one day ;)

Whatever your choices are... I hope they make you happy!

Sounds like you're a great example of someone living a happy married life with children.
It's obvious, that you're a mature, functional man that married a wonderful woman.

I have no  negative comments to make about your lifestyle.
My one main issue is that too many folks tirelessly promote the following myths:

1. To be truly happy and have a meaningful life, one must get married and have children.

* Obviously, those like you and your wife are happy with this. But I don't think it's an absolute requirement for a happy life.

2. The main reason to be married is to raise children.

* My wife and I think the exact opposite and are quite happy and functional.

3. Every man and woman should get married. It's just a matter of finding the right one.

* I love being married and prefer being in a monogamous relationship.
BUT, I know plenty of men and woman that were meant to be single.

The dumbest thing a lot of people do is ; " just do what everyone else does" .

One new myth (mostly) females now promote is the smart choice of dating single moms.

This is probably true.

I'll stay with a woman now, but I won't get married again. No real purpose in it. If you live in a common law state, you may want to figure out how to get around it, but otherwise, if the chick is cool and you like being around her. Just keep doin that.

Marriage is pointless.

Obviously, you sincerely believe this, and I see nothing wrong with it.
The main issue that bugs me, is when someone declares as absolute for everyone to strive for.

I don't think ANYONE should get married, just because "it's what you do "

On old gym bud loved being single and playing in his band that got a few actual bar gigs.
He enjoyed watching college football , worked out and had a pussy pullin' look.
For whatever reason after age 30, he started feeling guilty about staying single.

He was reluctant to move towards a typical married life with kids, but kept feeling "guilty".
Eventually he married a pretty, smart woman who also had a solid career.
They bought a home near his job and close to family.
She had fertility problems, and endured a lot of infertility procedures to have their own child.

I ran into him recently and we enjoyed catching up. He looked like he had aged a lot and confessed he was stressed from many sleepless nights, raising a new baby. He showed me baby pics on his phone and I  pretended to be interested. He was enjoying some aspects of his married with kid lifestyle, but didn't seem at peace.
It was a casual meet/greet deal , so I didn't want to fuk with him or be critical .

BUT, he had this attitude and air about him, that "settling down" was just something every guy had to do.
I suspect he missed his old , single lifestyle BUT allowed himself to yield to some self imposed requirement.

The likelihood that my mom got it on with a unattractive dude is next to impossible because she was picky that way. On the other hand, her longtime lover was much more handsome than my father and I have his coloring...blond, green eyed, etc. So you see, anything is possible. Oh, and by the way, my mother, like her father, were biggots. There is no chance in hell I got Coleman like genetics...darn, LOL.

Although I've not yet submitted to genetic testing, I am fairly confident the father who I am named after is my biological father. If I submit to the test and it turns out he was not my father, than he was the end of the paternal line and the excuse I used for not participating in the Vietnam War was bogus.
