The casino game called "marriage"

[seshtape]

I'd liken marraige/relationships more to Texas holdem. Depends on the how the player plays the hand that is dealt to him. You get a 2,Q and you think you have a ****ty hand until the flop comes out 2,Q, 5. Now you have two pair. The turn, being a 10 may mean nothing to you and you may think about folding because some other player is going all in(horny sloot at work), but the river reveals another Q. Low and behold the hand you had that looked like **** was actually the winning hand on the table( life).

i c your point, but what are the odds of this actually happening?

Breh once I hit 30 I still didn't have hardly any possessions. House damn near under water. Fukked all the sloots I could, had multiple threesomes. Honestly got married so I could have a family. My parents still together and I never once saw them argue (srs). Wifed a college athlete and now I got a 2 year old who can dribble a soccer ball and son #2 in the oven. If my wife flips on me, it's still a gamble I was willing to make. Aint even mad.

If those are your reasons then why not get a Power of Attorney?

Because Power of Attorney does not provide the same thing as marriage. It provides some of the benefits, but not all.

What do "you" think marriage is? The statistics must be lying.

Is "you" in quotes because you don't think he's a real person?

Odds are yours to make. Make good choices when you pick women.

Marriage doesn't seem so bad. Just fuk up your life beyond repair before you go through with it so she'll have nothing to take when she inevitably leaves you.

Some people fail to understand this and learn the hard way.

This means nothing. Everyone that gets married (and then divorced) thinks they've made the right choice......otherwise they wouldn't have gotten married.

Hindsight is 20/20 when you ignore the red flags she raised the whole time.

I've had buddies literally tell me they had no idea what they are doing in the bar hours before the wedding. You have the right mindset, and you probably dont have any retarded friends, which is a good thing.

[Mumra]

people can change, lie, deceive and plot. if everyone that got divorced had instead made the right choice marriage would be like an endangered species.

This is far from the truth.

The reason I say this is because i've been the best man at two weddings and attended 3.

Three of them are already divorced, and as for the remaining two; One is on the rocks and the other is a stepping stool. He's the guy at work that will joke about sleeping in the dog house after an argument, but deep down I know he's got a bed and blankets in Fido's house.

and these were cute couples (no homo) that did everything together and they finished each others sentences got parental blessings to get married, spent a full year together. Hell the first couple to get divorced actually graduated College together. You know, basically all that lovey dovey bullchit that would lead someone to suggest that they'd all "live happily ever after"

one got divorced due to infidelity, another popped out a Downs Syndrome kid and their marriage spirals to a divorce and I don't remember the 3rd, but they're not together either.

Its kinda hard to want to get married when pretty much everyone in your family/social circle that has gotten married has ended it in misery and heartbreak, and these are guys that were doing perfectly fine before getting married, so it basically ruined their lives.

[Dxohamah]

This is far from the truth.

So you're saying that people spend $3-$5k on a ring and on average an additional $10-30k on a wedding ceremony knowing they'll eventually get divorced?

[BearyManilowe]

I'm willing to bet a large majority of marriages are done at a courthouse without the excess expense.

[Lawlstud]

Explain where OP is wrong instead of attacking character. How does getting married benefit a man, when he risks pretty much everything he owns by signing up for it?

No, he risk exactly 50% of assets gained while married (Up to a certain length together that varies from state to state). Also let's say that's your entire argument, is the betting half your assets.

Sign a prenup, problem solved. So now what's wrong with it?

(Also this isn't a formal debate and this conversation doesn't deserve the ground rules of a debate, this always boils down to some FA angsty all women are evil argument, if you dont want to risk your assets sign a prenup, if you don't want to be monogamous either get into an open relationship or don't get married) or...if you don't want to get married don't fukin get married?

All these things have incredibly simple resolutions. I own a business, I've dated the same girl for going on 3 years, we have already discussed it and a prenup will be signed. I walk in on her getting railed out by juan and the boys then I say thanks for the good years, now gtfo my house, and go on living.

So you're saying that people spend $3-$5k on a ring and on average an additional $10-30k on a wedding ceremony knowing they'll eventually get divorced?

You're either intentionally being dense or intentionally misrepresenting what he is saying.

If you spend 3k-5k on a ring, then $10-30k on a wedding, to marry a girl who you were banging while you had another gf, that is a bad choice.

prenumps aren't exactly air tight. throw kids into it and you're screwed.

I can definitely understand that. And some dudes are always gf'ing chicks. Serial monogam-ers. IMO you know the risks going in to it. My little brother is 1-187 in 101st, he swears he's never getting married even though we grew up in the same house with loving parents. Each his own.

The misc every time some dumbass **** is posted about marriage

[InstantLoser]

long post

As others have stated, prenups are largely ineffective wastes of paper.

that's a bald statement sir.

excuse me I mean a bold statement.

[Lawlstud]

Prenumps are iron clad. I will always defend this. Chris Rock included a sunset clause into his. He didn't have to include that, but he did. The prenup is being carried out exactly how he and her both agreed on. You will have to pay a portion and all kinds of things go into play when deciding how much the kids need, but the wifes needs are left out. So yes if you get divorced the courts will still force you to pay and take care of the kids.

As others have stated, prenups are largely ineffective wastes of paper.

Largely would mean >51% and thats jaded kunt bullchit. They are legally binding contracts. In some states you might still be stuck with alimony, and in all states you still have to cut the kids a check, but your fortune is left intact.

Start citing off list of men whose prenup was through out and I'll rebuttal with why. Almost always the man violated the terms of his own prenup he agreed to.

[Straffe2x]

Fixed it for you




Grow a pair and don't let your wife walk over you. Men lead the household and if you don't, you get this

That is seriously true. The thing about people on this forum is that the majority of these ***gots chase after whores on Tinder or Gold digging whores at clubs. Then when one of these dumb whores gives these weak men a chance they wonder why they get cheated on. Also these beta ***s will let their tinder sloot gf hang out will all the male friends in the world, let her post constant photos on social media that she is using to seek attention, and they wont put there foot down because they are so worried that they might get labeled as "insecure"..... Most of you guys cant put a girl in her place, even if you found the right one. A lot of you really need to leave this forum because your brain is so screwed up from reading all the bull**** you see on here posted by weak males.

his prenup expired after 18 years and now he's getting a divorce and it has expired.

[Polaris]

Lol @ the posters getting butthurt but can't post a logical rebuttal. I like the idea of having a life partner, but fukking lmao @ the institution of marriage. getting the state involved in your relationships, just lol. do a simple pros vs cons list, morans.

Yeah, I do too to a large extent but...there are also a lot of sacrifices (and risks) that come with so...is it worth it?

Even with good quality women the idea starts to scare the phuck out of me (Im kind of dealing with this shyt with one right now with a woman in my life), because how much more complication will be added to your life. Im a man of simplicity and minimalism, I mean shyt...Im sharing a house for 4 other guys right now and my rent is only $475 in San Diego. Im perfectly content with the living arrangement, for example.

Forget about having the option to do shyt like that if you marry/start living with a woman and...have kids. Suddenly a whole shyt ton of new headaches/things to worry about/hassles/etc. etc.

Matthew, I'm guessing you didn't even bother to click through any other page of this thread before you quoted the first post of mine you saw and responded with some dumb ****.
