But be real here, how many people are going to pursue what makes them happy versus what they need to do to make money? \
I don't have kids, but let's really be real here: Since when did the fact of "not being happy" stop anyone from doing anything work related? Do you think people in Africa are "happy" spearing down lions and risking their lives? Do you think people in the ice age loved leaving their fires and families behind to risk their life for some food? Do you think Asians are happy about leaving their families behind to come over here and make a living working in menial conditions?

The ideas of "working" and "labor" has been so romanticized in western culture it's not even funny.

You have to complete assignments in air condition from 9-5. How horrible :bryan: Do you seriously know how many immigrants would KILL to be in that position? :pachaha: It's not as bad as people make it out to be (ie. First world problems)

Well, in this day and age you're not getting married in this country without a solid career, so trading time for money is inevitable if you want to actually marry. The American dream is all encompassing with clear steps, once you have the career, the next step is the wife, after the wife is the kids or the house. That is why I mentioned the American dream. I've never asked my friend if he plans on getting married, but he seems to be 50/50 on having kids. A lot of the dudes have said they have no plans of getting married anytime soon, only a few have outright said they have zero intentions of doing it.
And honestly my dude, take it from someone with kids, you're not traveling to 20 countries with a job and kids, it ain't happening. I've been to around 15 countries myself before they were born, since they were born I haven't left the country :sadcam:
Some people are honestly just wired differently, I'll get married to my girl someday, but I can't say it's strange that some men don't want to get married. I'm not in their shoes, I don't know what is driving them, some people just aren't cut out to be with another person for the rest of their lives. If they recognize that and are up front with it I'm not going to knock them. There are married couples that don't want kids, I don't think that's strange either, not everyone wants the same things.

Again, I'm not speaking about any "American Dream". I'm talking about achieving your goals and setting yourself up to be in a position to help your family (and family extends way further than just your kids/kids you don't have). What you listed is not even the "American dream", that's the way life works period, no matter what country you live in.

I think you misunderstood my traveling talking point. To work past that quickly, would you trade the feeling of bringing your first born in the world for the experience of traveling? You wouldn't. My only point in that aspect is that bringing up experiences is "futile" because everyone has felt a better feeling or was the ability to experience something that they would treasure, if not equally, then more.

And you may not be able to travel while you're kids are young, but if you do things right, there's no reason who shouldn't be able to travel the world once they are of age.

I'm not even talking about "marriage" in the traditional sense. It doesn't take a ceremony to make someone your "wife" or "husband". Someone who shuns away commitment ain't hittin' right. Can't tell me you want to be an old man by yourself and have me believe it.

They see me trolling, they hating.....
I'm not a people person and I don't like people


the only reason why I like women is because of hormones/natural instincts/shyt I have very little control over ...but after a nutt is bust they do nothing for me.


Everyone isn't the same bro, if ur a people person that always has to "be" around someone then a relationship is probably good for u....


I know the concept is probably hard to grasp but people all people are different and don't share ur opinions bro. Why would someone who is annoyed by people want to be in a relationship with kids? that's how murder suicides occur, people don't realize that's not what they wanted until its too late and a bullet is the only way to reverse it. I know plenty of people who wish they could start all over and not have kids/be in a relationship. They won't tell their spouse/kids that though, but I've heard these words from their own mouths.

There's a reason why the spouse is always the first suspect cops look at whenever someone is murdered.


If your happiness is fully dependent upon another individual(s) then you're not really happy. And things will eventually most likely crash and hit the fan for you.

Its true bro, if ur happiness is dependent upon other individuals not named YOURSELF then you are a weak minded human being whose foundation of "happiness" could easily be destroyed if the right strings are pulled (people removed, jealously, adultery, unexpected events happening etc)

Feel good rhetoric. You don't have to be a corporate slave to make money. I wish people would change their outlook on the ways of making money.

If you don't want to bring a child into the world, fine. If you want to stop your gene line, fine. If you don't feel it necessary to go further and farther than those before you, fine. I guess you can conveniently chop all that up under "rejecting the American Dream"

Like I understand what y'all are saying, but I also have a responsibility to my family currently and in the future. I'm not willing to just say "fukk it all" and sacrifice my family's future because of something I feel for the moment or even something I felt for a couple of years. It's bigger than me.

When I work to make money, I'm not thinking "paying bills, rent due". Im thinking, how can this benefit my family for generations to come. Short sightedness is not beneficial. Just because I think the capitalistic structure of society is stupid doesn't mean I'm not willing to afford my kids or grandkids or etc. any less than what they deserve or what I can earn for them. I'll grit my teeth through it all if it means things get better or easier for them even if they don't exist yet.

You and your feelings only last for a lifetime. Ya family name and legacy lasts forever if you can make it. :whew:

So by that logic shouldnt you be rolling around in cash by now seeing as your the product of a few generations working hard for the next?

Let me tell you this, the fear in women is real, ive seen it first hand. I went to dinner with my sister and 2 of her friends and all these hoes could talk about was that need to find the right man before they turn 30, got me thinking how they will damn near settle for anybody at that age.

Nobody wants to be lonely, I think a good age for a man to settle down these days is mid - late 30's by then you've got most of the wildness out of your system. Considering your still fit and make money shouldnt be that hard to find a tolerable woman at that age.

Ive always said If you wanna get married, do you. If you don't wanna get married do you, but I'm tired of the shaming language on both sides. Like every nikka that gets married is a simp, lame, that had no other options. Or every nikka that doesn't get married is bitter, a fakkit, hates his mom etc.

so i posted a link to cases straight from a court website adn suddenly there stories?

Yes they are just stories. Successful marriages don't go to court so there is no point posting occurrences of failed weddings. We all know they happen, you posting them proves nothing. Post some links to support all these numbers and laws you claim to know about

Gotta pass down ya legacy in the biological form. Or else we will end up like Western Europe and the Japanese with shrinking populations to the point of predictable extinction.

I know marriage laws in America is a joke, but there need to be a contract better than a pre-nup that states that women cannot take money in a divorce.

We needs a Men Rights Movement

You and reincar are doing the same thing and as a result are going around in circles.
