ending a marriage is certainly a business transaction, there would probably be fewer fricked up kids if both parties would approach it that way

My husband came very close to his expiration date(I told him this after we got engaged, it's not like I ever said "you must propose by this date or I'm leaving"...more a mental timeline I had in my head).





You handled that well from what little I know. Hopefully my friends handle it the same way.

He says "I won't tell a girl I love her until I know I'm going to marry her". He told her he's not going to marry her. But she's still hoping.

Is this a good friend of yours? If this was my friend I would be painfully blunt to her out of love for my friend.

If they are that delusional to begin with, I don't think it would help.

I have told her several times. She Says she loves him so much she will never leave him. I have said "doormat". She got pissed and said she's not one. But clearly she is.

If she's happy and he's happy in their dysfunction, idk?

Love.

Some women emotionally invest heavily. They can't turn off their emotional connection.

I don't mention it anymore. I just wanted to make sure she knew the obvious.

Ask them if they really want to marry someone that they pressured in to marriage or that married them because they "put in their time".

Then ask them that why, if he makes her happy enough to want to marry him, do they need to get married?

No not all the time. She's content, loves him, but wants more for herself. He's never going to give it to her though. That the sad part.

She probably has before, but not prolifically; which, to most women, is nothing short of doing it constantly and being so fricking annoying about it.

And why should he. He's found someone dumb enough to allow him to a)frick them whenever he wants b) he doesn't even have to say he loves her to get arse on tap c)he doesn't even have to have her live with him to get arse on tap

People do sad things all the time, it's what makes life like a movie.

How the frick is this sad?

Women need to stop. My wife says stupid realities are sad all the time when they are not sad. Not getting a ring is not a sad occurrence. Life is not a movie.

Yep. He basically says this.

I kind of hinted that she Should take a few steps back but she's scared he will leave her. She has told him under no circumstances will she break up with him.

It's sad for her bc she's a great person and she will never get what she wants.

sounds like she has issues. There is nothing you can do IMHO, she is going to be really unhappy one day but somoene who won't listen to reason won't listen to reason.

I know quite a few guys that have strung girls out for years. Its really quite comical how desperate woman get around 35 or so. They are often "all in" with a guy and can't see there is no baby coming with him, and best to start over while you can....so you have a shot.

Well that is just stupid. I bet he cheats on her as well cause he knows he can get away with it.



When I left my ex he was stunned by it. He even said he never thought I would actually leave him. Which means he thought he could get away with anything and keep me.
