I mean this question seriously. I know there's lots of woman-bashing threads on this site and all, but I want to know how you've benefited from your marriage that you would not be able to do otherwise without your marriage. I've asked this question to others, and I get the following answers:

  • The marriage is there to be strong for you when your relationship isn't strong.
  • If (a big if) you want kids, it provides a structural team to raise children.
  • Stability in your own life because of the reliance derived from the partnership of marriage.

I have issues with these, for the following reasons:

  1. Marriage is really easy to end, and women tend to do so 75% of the time at the man's detriment, and family court is not friendly to men in the least.
  2. People, myself included, aren't sure if we even want kids. It's a responsibility that just doesn't appeal to me, so I don't want to take it on.
  3. With self-discipline, I can create my own stability.

I was blessed to grow up with two parents that strongly loved each other and still (in a sickening way) love each other and canoodle like teenagers whenever they go out to dinner together or enjoy a bottle of red together on the back patio. In a way I've found it extremely admirable and if I knew that I would be able to have a relationship like that with a woman, I would. However, it just seems that there has been such a powerful cultural shift in the past 2-3 decades that makes me very risk-averse to try my hand in said paradigm.

Now if I'm way off base, let me know. I'm open to the idea of being completely wrong here. I just don't see what the point is right now. Enlighten the ignorant (myself) to the other side.

I married a bi-sexual...She left me 3 months ago for a woman. We had only been married for 7 months :sadbron:

But while we were married everything was okay. I was a lot happier having someone cook, cleans, the extra income, good sex and good friendship.

Damn... that sucks. How old were you when this happened?

Also... I figured that I would be the type who'd just get a smaller place on his own. An upscale condo. Then I'd just pay someone to clean for me weekly, and live off of weight watchers stuff?

I'm 28 breh. I did the whole minus by age twice plus 7. She was 21, just graduating college. I'm in my profession doing well for myself. She fine, that wet-wet :lawd:. Good family but too much of a head-case breh. :mindblown:

I ignored the bi-sexual shh cause I figured all that would die down once we got married but I seen some signs. She would say "this or that female was cute" all the time. Had to constantly worry about her "female friends" :to:

It eventually bit me in the a$$. I :ufdup:

My pastor said marriage will be the hardest thing you'll have to deal with in life.


I think people underestimate how much hard work it takes to keep a marriage going. I still wanna get married tho. just to the right woman.
