Maybe you just haven't been around long enough for shit to get real.
You've never seen a woman go after everything in court, have you? Never seen the lies or the frivolous motions, taking years to put to rest. You've not experienced or seen a man's income transferred to the ex wife for decades after the divorce, or the ways she extracts more money out of her ex husband in those years.
You have not spent years in marriage, always sacrificing your own dreams because your spouse repeatedly drains the savings, crashes the cars, arranges expensive trips, all while never contributing a dime to the household.
Get married. Be sure you have a rock solid prenup validated by lawyers on both sides, pray you read your partner's intentions and expectations well, and good luck.
No, I haven't experienced any of those things. I don't know why anyone would be in a relationship like that. Sounds like you probably shouldn't of got married.
Obviously I should not have married. Do you think I expected that treatment? That is my whole point. You're playing Russian roulette.
Women are capable of deceit - hard to believe, I know. Really, they are! Many men have experiences far worse than mine. Some are murdered, many are left with criminal records for things they didn't do. Others find out years into marriage they aren't the father of the children They are raising.
