couldn't agree more.... call me foolish, but there is this saying: 'sometimes love isn't about how much someone suits you but how much you're willing to change to suit them'
I agree with you wholeheartedly Karol. I can tell from your postings that you are a very kind, considerate, educated and intelligent individual. You seem to have an incredible balance between emotion and logic, and those are qualities which just donât exist in the average person; you are very special indeed. So where is this yummy dinner you are cooking tomorrow night?
thanks karol88, i did want to add; posting about so called "good" marriages are actually on topic to the thread. if one was to conclude that a marriage can not end up in divorce by doing some of the points presented like above....you are protecting your assets from a divorce! similar to trading with good money management in addition to good entries. also, i don't have carol brady at home; i just apply some behavior changes as part of my asset protection system. for instance, on a sunny summer day instead of fishing and drinking some great beer, i will relent and do what (ridiculously stupid ) she wants...like hang pictures. then after looking back at my choices, i conclude those choices did make me and my family happier than if i went fishing (i still end up fishing at another time.)
<i>"You guys need to read up on David DeAngelo and Ross Jeffries then you can stop this WUSS thread. You should control your wife/girlfriend's world. Whether she is a waitress or surgeon, you call the shots !!!"</i> You and those two buffoons listed above need to understand and implement what some of us already know as "secrets to success" with the right women. If and when y'all do that, Hugh Hefner & Snoop Dogg will both be begging you to please let them take notes.
oh man thats a great quote after reading this post a little further.. i think the answer is obvious you are not marrying for love because you said yourself you've never met a woman that you respected. if you really are this screwed up and realize that you'll never properly deal with your negative views on women then umm... yeah, plan for the worst because you will only be getting married to try to fill the void
Those guys are losers that sell seminars - kinda like ex-traders that failed at trading and resort to seminar selling. I watched a documentary about dating and there were some PUA guys there and out of 60 interactions with women - all failed. The PUA game is like indicators - it works until it doesn't. Randomness and chance - play a big role. But if you don't bet you can't win. All PUA guys do is bet very often and pray for a score. Besides any guy whose self-esteem depends on whether a girl sleeps with him or not is a loser. Hugh Hefner is finished. So is playboy enterprises - that institution has lost its edge and so has Hugh. Hugh really wanted a "soul mate" and guess what - after fucking hundreds of the hottest girls - he finds himself a very lonely, heart broken 82 year old man. Every girl he's been with has used him and ditched him. Recently Hugh's girlfriend for 7 years (Holly Madison) left him for Criss Angel - a younger and richer guy. But Criss Angel is even a bigger piker than Hugh. If Holly is willing to cheat on Hugh and dump Hugh after 7 years - then Criss is a huge piker and is practically begging Holly for the same treatment. Same thing with Hugh's other girlfriend that is now dating a football player. The football player is going to get WTF PWNED in a few years. Hugh is now with two 19 year old twins that just got busted for assault. And playboy will likely declare bankruptcy soon. Hugh needs to be put on suicide watch. Despite the obivous, broke ET traders think such a thing would never happen to them, after all - they are so special.
i think you're missing the point that many people on this thread are trying to make to you. it seems obvious that you are not marrying for love. which is evidence of a deeper rooted issue. with that being said if you acknowledge this and want to marry anyways then by all means PROTECT yourself. or don't get married at all, go back to the drawing board, get some therapy and try to figure out why it is you are the way you are.
Do you honestly believe that these playmates were really Hughs girlfriend? They get paid to be in the mansion btw. They don't get paid that much. However, its quite possible their is some kind of love. Women also need physical attraction. If you were a woman and two guys had the same wealth, would you choose a sexier man or an older not so sexy man?
You trade right? Think of a prenuputial agreement as a stop loss. It's the only thing that can help you get out of a trade (marriage) with a small loss (or loss that you're comfortable with). If you didn't have a prenuptial agreement, then you will most likely (in most states) have half your assets divided to your wife. Do you trade without putting stops?
If you have money, serious money. Why in hell would you ever want to get married ? The girl is more likely to stay with you if only for the money and if not, well you should have no problem finding another one. Get a yacht and organize parties at your yacht. That's what I would do if I had money.
