I know exactly what you mean. I'm 31, wifes 28, and were having the time of our lives. No kids helps a ton ( I took care of that a long time ago

) Been married 8 years and things are awesome. Were planning a trip to Germany if our friends remain in country. We work out together, play together, and enjoy life.
I think some of these guys think they can still be a party animal, or just hang with there friends all the time and come home, eat, and get laid, and take off again. Make your wife your best friend, and you'll be a lot happier. If you don't want to make that kind of commitment, better be real careful who you screw around with, or even get close to. Your right when you say some of these guys looked trapped, they are, like rats, by a bad choice, a bad woman, or just a situation they don't know how to control.
Never let a woman talk you into getting married or having kids, if you truly don't want. I told my wife over and over, just to make sure we both knew what we were getting into, that I didn't want kids. And you know what,its worked, and I'm happy
