    Do you actually believe your own bullshit? I can show you just as many divorced children from homes just like the one you outlined above. I have seen people come from broken homes who were determined to make it and have. You are full of it.

    Marriage is risky business. If it works out you will have a nice life but if it goes sour you will live in hell. Close to 95% of married people live in hell. Marriage is something to judge from its results, not from its objectives.

    I think it is better to find a woman who is suffering a lot from a bad mariage and convince her to get a divorce and come to live with you than trying to meet young, pretty free girls who behave like boys of the 1980s.

  6. My wife sent this to me. Part of a joke about older women and men. Seems appropriate for this thread.:D

    For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?' Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!"

  7. I'm in support of it. I think if you find the RIGHT person (not the CURRENT person or the person who "makes sense", then it can be a wonderful thing.

    Legally there would not be much difference in a split, there would still be a legal mess with minor children involved.

  9. it's the fear of the woman changing that keeps me single. after she says "I do", maybe she'll gain 40 pounds; maybe she becomes lazy because you have money and it's now hers; maybe she becomes a nagging machine. and when you're dating, you can put up with PMS and the typical bouts of emotional instability, but the thought of living with that for 25 yrs scares the crap outta me.

    by keeping the relationship as "dating", you force her to continue to work at the relationship.
