There's no reason to stay. Back then, women were dependent on men so leaving would mean you were more than likely gonna end up homeless and hungry. Now, women no longer need men so we can leave whenever we want and be just fine.

:manny:
You're bugging!

Being a six figure couple is a different life than being a 50k single earner. (Under the assumption that both make 50k). If you make less than that as a couple, it's even more crucial for both of you to work together if you to be a successful couple. I'm not saying you can't be successful on your own, but working together you get there faster...well you should anyway.

True. Plus if women no longer needed men, that would mean that we could do away with child support laws and alimony.

Depends on what was said and the state of the relationship. Im not going to stick with someone who shows no effort, or doesnt respect me. I dont care how much love I have for them. I love myself too much, if that makes me selfish so be it. Now if its something that can be solved and we're both trying to work towards a solution, Im working things out by any means.

Another problem is that couples aren't spending enough time together before they get married. Men need to stop letting women pressure them in to proposing, don't marry until you're damn good and ready. IMO a couple needs ATLEAST 4 years together before they think about marriage and ATLEAST 1 of those years needs to be cohabitating. I know there's exceptions to this, but again, THEY ARE THE EXCEPTION, NOT THE RULE.

Exactly and smh @ anyone who feels cohabiting is a bad idea in this day and age.

The fact that the woman in your scenario is making 50k makes my post true, that woman can still take care of herself if she leaves her man. I never said anything disagreeing with what you stated in your post. I just said that (most) women are able to survive on their own now so if they feel like a man isn't giving them what they want they don't have to stay out of fear of being homeless or hungry. Which is why women now are so quick to leave a relationship.

I was with my parents the other day, and they were getting at each other, pops making slick remarks, mom coming back but them being an older couple it was all good, but my mom spoke to me and said you see that, if you speak to a woman like that nowadays, they're quick to leave you/divorce/ you. Citing reasons like they don't feel loved and all that other hoopla. Is marriage that much of a joke that it's that quick and easy to get up and leave? The reason I say women in the title is because studies have shown it is women that initiated the divorces.

Thoughts?:ld:
Does your mom have any facts to back what the hell she is claiming?

She is obviously Just spewing this nonsense to pat her self on the back

Because I'm pretty sure divorces are trending downwards

It actually looks like divorcee was higher in her generation.

What a loser.

That's because they don't have anything.

Like @Geoffrey Chaucer put it, women generations past were enduring a lot of abuse, and women still do today but they no longer fear starvation or homeless because of the availability and freedoms that other women fought for. We don't need men, men don't need us, it's just great to have each other there but we'll breathe anyway.

But the future generations need us together. That's the problem Elle, there was a lot of wrongs to women BUT most Black women and men had to work for the last 400 years. So much of the wrong, Black women have faced is similar to the ones men faced as well and even with that said, the future generations need us working together so they can work. Why are we so shock when future generation are selfish when their parent/s are the same way.

I never really understood when a Black person, male or female talks about past generations. You know what past generations did? They worked. Male and Female. They never had it like White folks. At best, it was like the Hutables who still worked.

This is basically it in a nutshell. People love to romanticize the past. Yeah women were more obedient then because they didn't have to work, and were looked down upon if they weren't housewives, but with more rights came more freedom. Women can easily make it without a man, or a relationship, and still lead fulfilling lives. If your nikka ain't shyt, women aren't scared to leave because they'll be out of on the street by themselves, you can leave.
see the thing these dudes dont want to admit is:

they are afraid
afraid of being hurt
afraid that they will end up alone
afraid they will never be loved

they turn that fear into hatred

alot of these dudes come from a single parent home
they are subconsciously angry at their mother
ad blame her for their lack of a father

so they direct that towards women that remind them of their mothers


and some of these dudes are just saying shyt because they are young and virgins and have no real life experience with women
so they let music, tv, and the net tell them who black women are

quick to leave...Women. :russ:

take off the "Wo"

women are quick to be completely THRU/FINISHED. once you've ran them over time and time again. And its not just You. Its every man in their life from their pops running their moms over and LEAVING, to all of her boyfriends that dipped on her while in a supposed committed relationship. Chicks get tired. it takes them awhile. but when they're thru. they're Beyond THRU.

dudes will be finished with a chick/wife etc. but hang around forever. when i say hang around. i mean hang around for all the perks ( a roof over your head, a cooked meal, even having the ability to be close to the kids if you have some, and of course the bedroom if she's up for it). dudes be just as thru. we just wont leave officially a lot of times.

a woman has to KICK us out and let it be known we are not welcomed back unless we change. Then and only then do we officially leave. because we dont want nobody telling us "its time to grow up."


Now what your moms was talking about isnt a chick thing. its a marriage thing nowadays.

because you see your parents going hard in the paint with each other but neither of them packing it up and leaving. you will most likely be just as steady when it comes to your marriage. but hopefully you will have a wife that grew up in the same type of household. if not. UH OH. she will be quicker to roll out then you will. we only know what we've been taught. if all we've seen is one parent cause the other parent left or got the boot. thats all we know. "when the kitchen gets hot... bail out."

and sticking it out "for the kids" then bailing in your late 40's is just as bad. your kids can see that too. they will just think "why waste time with all of that. cut the cord now. its over."

people get married and want all their needs met. without realizing you are in it to be dependent on the other person. but also to cover the other person. being dependent isnt always crying about what you want. its about giving all you can give and praying that they give you what you need in return. there are no guarantees in love. unless its spiritual love from God.

but if you go into it looking for a lot but not realizing how much you will have to compromise and bend, and break, rebuild, bend, compromise, break, rebuild again. dont get married until you understand that. dont listen to nobody telling you "its time" no it aint. it aint TIME to get hitched until you understand that first sentence.

exactly. i love how people try to make it sound like it's a noble thing that men stick around and file for divorce less. that shyt aint coming from a "noble" place. foh. :rudy: most men stay because they're comfortable and cowards. of course you'd be :patrice: to leave or file for divorce if you had a live in maid ...cook...babysitter....someone to do your dirty laundry etc and give your sorry ass some p*ssy every once in awhile no matter how much of an ass you are to her.
Women are quicker to leave because WE expend more energy and are at a bigger disadvantage by staying with someone who isn't appreciative. :comeon:

Both parties need to communicate more but when women do you hear a collective "sigh" about it and jokes are made about it in media. But on the real communication is what keeps this shyt from happening. Don't let your woman leave you in the dark about how she's feeling, don't let your man leave you in the dark about how he's feeling. That's how hate and frustration builds up. Put that shyt on the table, squash it. I think more women are prone to leaving because they constantly have gentleman callers.
here's the thing about this "communication" thing.

i told my wife this. she didnt believe me. but she's starting to come around.

dudes and chicks for the most part are wired differently.

dudes do not express all of their feelings. PERIOD. we aint build like that. some of us are. that means a woman has to be able to READ US. hey ladies. if you want this man, you better have x-ray vision into his soul. stop crying about him not being more emotional or telling you more. most dudes wont and dont. now yes you can train us up in everything emotional because you guys are experts at it. we're novices at best. so dont get mad. be happy to train us up. it will take time...YEARS. decades even. and even then we will not share like you share. we're not women. remember this.

now the part i told the wife is this. the reasons dudes dont communicate well with their chicks is because they really didnt befriend their chicks first.

i'll prove it.

most dudes, are out on the prowl for a cute chick, sexy lady, etc, etc. you meet a chick, shes cute. you have a little fake convo. you get the number, facebook, etc yall texting/calling back n forth. sure you ask her how was her day. but you reallly dont care. you're just doing small talk to get in dem draws. lets keep it 150. and after you get in dem draws. maybe you even fall for the chick for real. now you're in a relationship with her. you have never reallllly liked her like a good friend to begin with. you never even thought about it like that.

this is also why half of dudes chicks when in the company of dudes and their friends. the chick just sits there and doesnt speak. because she's not a FRIEND. she's just a girlfriend or just a wife. a real FRIEND will speak when you're among FRIENDS. even if she isnt talkative.

Dudes need to star befriending the chicks they end up getting into serious relationships with. you do that, then if it turns into a marriage situation you have a real foundation of communication to build on. I know you and you know me like a FRIEND. only friends and family know each other well enough to have indepth convos. ladies get pissed off when they find out something about their dude they never knew. cause they will constantly ask. and i like i said above. a dude just wont come out and say it. unlessssss we're really good friends.

dont think when you two get together in a relationship you will end up being better friends. not necessarily. you will become a couple. but now both sides are withholding certain things from the other to not stir up trouble. you start communicating less and less and you dont even notice it.

remember, when yall were just cool. you use to tell her "i'm about to go out with the boys tonight, i'll text you later."

now that yall in a relationship and sometimes she cries about you going out with the boys. you aint even telling her the times you hang with the homies. cause you're trying to avoid the whine fest. but that is a lack of communication. small but serious down the road.


FRIENDS first, COUPLE 2nd, Fiance, then marriage. in that order.

you go out of order. dont be surprised when you end up in divorce court.

They don't recognize that rhetoric as abusive or toxic, which is rather alarming.
