Honestly, I plan on having a religious ceremony for marriage but not getting a marriage license. I know I could still get fricked with that, plus common-law statutes, but it's better than nothing.

Negative. My mom is worth more way than she thinks and I’m an only child. Kids will be set for life.

When a woman loses respect for you she will start to control you. She'll eventually resent you for being weak enough to be controlled and she'll start looking for someone she respects and can't control. Female hypergamy. Women want a man who's better than them. A man they can look up to.

Treat her like a queen. You know what a queen is, though? The king's bitch.

If divorce laws drastically change it could be reversed, but we know that'll never happen so state sanctioned marriage will continue to decline.


Maybe some of these baws on here in same sex marriage states who find themselves single later in life can "marry" another single baw for some tax breaks.

It blows my mind that people think this is a controversial opinion.

You're all over the place. Last week you championed a post about showing love for your S/O on more than Valentine's Day.

I think you're a lonely sociopath.

After all of this time, why wouldn't you propose the idea of therapy/counseling? You're really willing to spend 10 MORE years of your life unfulfilled/unhappy for some unproven benefit to the kids?

Is this the example of love and commitment you want to impress upon them?

Women of the most narcissistic generation ever continue to show it well into their golden years? Shocking.

That’s correct. Except for one part . The part about “ when she loses respect for you “. That’s incorrect. She will attempt to control your life whether she respects you or not . Just as hypergamy is her nature, so is control. And it’s not tied to you being a fit earner and on top of your shite. She will seek to control you as surely as you like cleavage. It is the nature of women. They want to control their lives and the lives of those around them above all else. And this gets much worse with age.

That's why women go nuts for men who don't take their shite in a very dismissive way.

You missed the underlying point of that thread. Which is par for the course for you for any thread that doesn't have pictures of half-naked women.

In this scenario I’d think the husband comes out ahead a good bit of the time. What young guy would want to bang a 55-60+ year old woman? Old guys with moneycan get laid. Not to mention kids will resent whoever initiates a divorce that late in the game

Yeah, I agree with you . My wording wasn't very clear.

Women will constantly test men for fitness. They'll always attempt to gain more control. They'll lose respect for their husband when he starts to concede ground and allows her that control.

Of course they do . My wife wants me to be the “ vision” guy and she can be the “detail” guy. I always make the big decisions and I don’t take any shite. The problem is that men don’t want to be all up in family member business and gossip and women shite, so we don’t “ control “ those areas . And that’s where they LIVE. A woman will try to control you through isolation of friends and family. Again, especially as they age. Because they seek small worlds they can control while we want to go fukc the world for the experience of doing it . It’s our natures, they are inherently in competition and they are not in harmony as our feminized culture indoctrination says.

Even the "superior" mates women select wont keep them satisfied forever.

The fact remains that being a materialistic person will never ever keep anyone satisfied.

Theres always a better looking guy, a richer guy, a smarter guy, a more sensitive and understanding guy. Always.

Women leave handsome successful men in the dust every single day.


This view you posted is a pure materialistic perspective.

Basically, men become doormats.

Women do not respect doormats. Women may say they want a man who yields to them at every turn, but they will end up losing attraction.

Stay in shape. Be strong mentally and physically. Remain a man that a woman would be attracted to. If you become a soft weak fat slob, why would your wife remain attracted?

In conclusion women are most attracted to men who other women are attracted to. If you aren't getting indicators of interest/attraction from other women when you are out, chances are your wife is no longer attracted either.
