All the older guys I know, guys that are 55 and older are telling me the same story; don't do it. It just turns to crap no matter what you do. They'd rather be independent. At best it's a tedious bore. At worst a living hell with financial ruin thrown in for good measure. The problem is that when you're young, you just naturally fall into this mind set where your whole self image is based on how women regard you, and so you spend all your money and energy trying to make yourself acceptable to them. Then later in life the shine wears off and you finally realize that you've wasted yourself on a bunch of crap.

OMG. lol. I have to comment on this. What a miserable life. Most likely you have been dating the wrong people. Not all women are the way you are protraying a woman to be. I have over 25 years married and still going strong. Of course we have our ups and downs. However, we always bring it back together. Not the B.S. you are talking about. I hope you are a happy person now:)

Hi,
Thee protests way too much! Whether you get married or not, if you are alive you age. When you age the sexual tension wanes, and if married, you both face illness, death and the real challenges of life. My husband has the advantage of having a beautiful fifty something chick, he can grope, and joke with.
Do yourself a favor, and when looking to get laid, try artists, ballroom dancers, vegetarians. Woman who have passion
for the things that are not material have a tendency to have a bigger heart. As John lennon said "all you need is love"
let go of the anger!! A concerned milf

Well, if we are selfish pigs, then our loss to you is really immaterial, Amber. As far as the woman's life being ruined, I am quite sure that this is true often enough. But then again, it's a slight majority of people who end up divorced, and the majority of those marriages destroyed were done at the behest of the wives. The number one reason? She no longer feels fulfilled. In other words, she's bored, and doesn't feel like being a wife anymore. The harsh reality is that getting divorced will not likely lead to an exciting and vivacious life for either party. The only difference between the two of them is that one made the conscious choice and ended up in a worse situation, while the other found their way there by no choice of their own.

Guess the genders of who is who in this scenario most often.

There really is no need for marriage, for men or for women. It's an outmoded and superficial construct that no longer finds the reasons for it's continued existence that used to be in place.

Keep in mind that the concept of marrying for love is fairly new in the history of marriage. It used to be the method by which political power was consolidated, or increasing the net worth of the families involved by merging fortunes. For anyone else that fell outside these paradigms, it was at least a way of increasing one's chances of survival. Huge families sprang out of this not out of a love of children, but out of the certain knowledge that a number of the kids was not going to survive to adulthood.

When one looks at marriage in this light, it clearly makes as much sense as driving a stagecoach to work, rather than a car.

Love is not enough to sustain a marriage. Love fades, people change, and the marriage becomes a power struggle. Who the hell needs that?

I think it depends on the maturity of the people involved. If a guy wants to end up with a good woman then he needs to get to know her as a friend first rather than trying to get into her pants. Not all women are controlling superficial shopaholics. There are decent people out there who will love you properly but you need to get yourself right first.

I had a good chuckle over your comments so thanks for sharing your thoughts:)

Clueless and sitting alone in a resturant with a bright spotlight shinning on your lonely, lifeless soul, good choice?

Iv'e been married 5 years and I have sex about 3 times amonth.I love my wife and it's great to spend time with her with no sex but,,,, I need relief and it's got to the point where I have to relieve myself.I have explained to my wife that I need some form of relief and if she doesn't want to have sex, then maybe she could masterbate me with her hands.I think it's bad that I have to ask but I'm at the end of my rope.I'm very close to having an affair.

I full heartedly agree with this..

To get past all the shallow-minded philosophical crud you guys are dishing, let me explain something. Women's "liberators" of the 60's led to the no-fault divorce concept, abortion, loss of family values, and a host of other ills that plague our nation. Marriage is no longer a sacred promise or even a loosely binding contract. If you want out, husband or wife, no one will stop you or think lesser of you for abandoning your family. Marriage really is a non-entity in today’s society. It is not binding. But it's bigger that marriage. There are forces working to confuse gender roles, eliminate Christianity and nullify every core value you hold dear. Hold on to those handlebars. kids!

yeah sounds like you are going to be a very lonely miserable person. no ones forcing you to get married, but theres no reason to judge marriage in general, the divorce rate is high. but there are lots of happy couples that mean the world to each other and brighten each others life. go watch the notebook and see true love.

StayTrue2U about 1 year ago

You sound pretty pathetic to me. Life is what you make it so if you believe that marrying will ruin your life, then it probably will. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. I'm not being idealistic here as I'm well aware of the challenges that may arise but challenges are what define you and there comes a time when people need a different type. There's so much you can discover on your own.

I do hope that one day you meet someone that will show you the light and force you to look outside yourself. It seems to me tha you're justifying your empty shell of an existence by bashing an insitution that was based on mutual benefit. A selfish life is a meaningless one.

Marraige is work, plain and simple. Any lasting relationship is, to be honest. Americans have this notion that they are entitled -- yes, ENTITLED -- to stress-free marital bliss with no personal investment. When this isn't realized (and it never is) many of them cut and run.

I am happily married to a wonderful woman that I grew up with. Everything is not perfect with our marraige, nor do we expect it to be. We enjoy the good times and work through the bad ones.

I am married to my best friend. Isn't that the way it should be?

why should women marry?

bibliolept over 2 years ago

A lot of things have the potential to suck, has many philosophers have said (though less bluntly). People are, mostly, what you make of them. You are not what they make you. So if you are hateful and spiteful, it's you that's the root cause, more than likely.

ummm maybe you should just stay away from the dating scene all together
