X2. My wife is pretty well put together, and used to make great money until I retired her. I make good coin now and wouldn't be able to do it if I was single and out drinking, whoring and doing blow. Marriage and kids keep you focused. I do see though, how some dudes step out on their wives. That's not for me though. Not worth it.
Good post.
I can understand why a man gets married and has kids.
I never wanted children but plenty of guys do, so wtf.
If you decide to go down this road, embrace it and accept the good and bad with it.
If you don't want to be in a marriage family situation and feel trapped, GET DIVORCED!
What amazes me is how so many men and woman act like the can secretly screw around enjoy a happy marriage.
If you want to screw around , stay single and enjoy that lifestyle.
In my case, I preferred being married , so I am.
My wife and I never wanted kids, so we never had 'em. Simple.
Most unhappily married men with kids who screw around end up in two situations:
1. The wife stays silent and realizes her husband has little desire for any romance with her.
She quietly resents him and they exist in a loveless, stressed marriage raising the kids and working.
Neither feels much happiness, but convince themselves they did it for the kids.
2. The wife gets pissed and they divorce.
He ends up paying child support and moves out.
On weekends you see him trading out the kids with her in some mall parking lot.
He's a part time single dad and it sucks. Plus he has to deal with a resentful , bitchy , ex-wife
who fusses at him about the kids needs .
Enjoy
