[Kingofthereal]

Cats wanna argue but they always overlook the fact women have mood swings and are unpredictable. PMS,Periods they are walking land mines at times.There is a reason men are workaholics,alcoholics,etc. Dudes will avoid coming home for a reason. In this modern day and age its done. Married men are scared of divorce then they are death. Honestly its better to shack up then to marry and im not even one to cohabitate. At least when you live together you get to see who other person is 24/7.

I'm a single person over 30 and I will say we aren't the most honest people. I'm GMB to the bone, but single life isn't all that it's cracked up to be. No matter how many hoez you got, it doesn't compare to have one solid mate that really has your back. Many of us lie about our lives, we put up fronts and try to pretend our successfull careers makes up happy. It doesn't. After all the partying, happy hours, vacations, balls and brunches, and posting it all on social media, after all the likes, we go home to that cold house and bed.

We all know most marriages end in the divorce. So those that stay together, at least half of them are probably miserable and would love to be back in the dating game. To be honest, married men here in DC seem to be the thirstiest in the game. So many women with stories of dating a man only to find out he's married months later. You should see how thirsty these guys are at work. Geez. My best has been married since we met in 2007. Has complained about no sex and wife complaining since 2007. No they sleep in seperate rooms. Wife complains about divorcing monthly. But if you only go by his IG you'd think otherwise.

Single people who have never been married lie the most.

Married people can easily divorce but single people can not easily get married. It takes effort even if they pick a trash partner

It's totally situational.

I've been with the same girl since 2019 and we're planning on getting married sometime in the near future.

Personally, while relationships can be stressful at times, I find being in a monogamous relationship is less stressful than constantly being on the hound or on the chase. I had a severe case of allergies last week and I talked to my girl about it and she, as a nurse, gave me solid medical advice to help me out and she drove me to my doctor when I was too busy hyperventilating to take myself in my own car. When you got a good woman or good man on your side, it's a great feeling and beats being alone. Of course, the opposite is true is your partner is trash.

I know dudes who are #GMB types who are constantly on the prowl trying to get women to sleep with them and hopping from one short term relationship to the next and, while they often front about how great live is for them, they'll let me know in private how they actually would like to have a real partner. And one of the most #GMB guys I know is currently trying to work things out with some Latina he used to be FWB with.

To answer the question directly, I think single people cap more about their happiness. Dudes love to play up the bachelor fantasy while single women sometimes have this "I can do bad all by myself" mentality. And the fronting can be over the top sometimes on both sides.

I don't actually see married people promoting themselves as happy tbh. Not even in successful marriages. Every other married couple I've spoken to irl tells me how it takes work and sacrifice, especially when kids are involved.

As a married man, the word ‘work’ shouldn’t be used. Marriage takes a great of patience because it’s 2 human beings combining lives to reach a common goal. Marriage is a business partnership and should operate as such.

Folks, men and women, harp on the romantic image they get from media and never think about the day-to-day. Two (or more ) people are constantly managing one another’s feelings and expectations. That’s stressful versus being single and for the most part only having to deal with the best representative of a person.

My advice for anyone, man and woman, who want to get marry is to first know, love and accept one’s selves. Be candid about their interests, desires, goals, lack of goals, etcetera. You wanna be you wholeheartedly with your person.

If you are a person that likes to flirt and get joy and pleasure out of it, own it and express it early. Part of knowing one’s self is knowing what you aren’t okay with.

Lastly, accept that humans change over time at unique paces. A guy/girl may fall for a party guy/girl and then one day; they don’t care to party anymore.

Gotta work with it.

Good post

Then you are blessed my brotha

Help the people out, what specifically makes your marriage ‘fun’?

Bc I think married people do a disservice when they use the same cliche statements. Most of the time it sounds more like contentment, comfort, stability, not “fun”. Which btw isn’t a bad thing. At a certain point in life ‘fun’ isn’t the priority

But since you’d said fun, tell us what/why

We work hard daily and both go through shyt. Take vacations whenever possible if you got go out the contra money or go to Atlanta money. The biggest flex is when your wife or husband brings up the same story to multiple people when you experience some fun or funny shyt on vacation. The day to day shyt is the day to day shyt. Don’t dwell on it.

Not saying you wrong but that’s exactly why you ain’t “happy”. You’re content, you’re resigned, you’re conditioned.

Folk be like ‘marriage is a lot of work’. Ngga name me anything else in life—-that makes you happy—- that includes ‘that’s a lot of WORK’

I always ask married people this and no one has given me a concise answer or explanation yet. They say marriage is “hard”. So. I always ask: “Why would I VOLUNTARILY make my life harder by getting married“?

Shuts em up every single time…

A good marriage > a good single life

A bad marriage < a bad single life

Single means always in the daily mindset. It can be hell, however being married to a partner that you don’t like to have arguments, what is worse

A single man making 65K has more disposable income in a married man, making 75K. If Stop travel you can date women and have one night stands but it gets empty.

You can also fix your issues easier if you’re single

Where in the history of black men
Have we not been silenced
They killed our Black male leaders
And demonize the ones that are still around doing the lords work
Not talking about the grifters posted on this forum
To silence us
They put crack in the community and locked us up
That silenced black male voices
Black men have been told we ain’t shyt since the womb
That silenced us
Black men try to speak up against predators(one on this godforsaken site)
nikkas try to silence the non fukk nikkas by calling them incels
We try to tell supposedly “our women” the truth and how we feel
nikkas are silenced by self deletion/alcoholism
You may be correct that white men have never been silenced
But ain’t no way, you as a black man
Should ever type a post like this
And Im being very respectful breh

Yes black men have been historically oppressed, but the manosphere does not care about black men as a collective. And I am glad that you have mentioned that. My original point was that men are also suffering in silence.But brehs will often ignore it to be in denial to continue on with the gender war narrative.
