For most people, NO

I’d spend less on the ring and wedding but I’ll never tell me wife that.

No. I'm divorce now. But we have 2 incredible kids today. I couldn't imagine my life today without my kids. I thank God for them. Unfortunately, our marriage wasn't a good one at all. I regret many, many decision I made back then. Today, I'm 54 and recently single (another story). Would I marry again, I think I would. I know I definitely don't want to be alone. Hopefully the good Lord will bless me with another woman.

Men that don't have the ability to attract and retain successful high quality women are the ones that think marriage isn't worth it.

We've been married for 46 years and have two children and four grand kids and are loving our lives as grand parents. One thing you younger guys will learn is that marriage is lived in chapters. Chapter one is all about each other and sex. Chapter two will be built around your kids. Chapter three is focused on your grand kids and chapter four is back to each other until death you do part. Keep God in your lives and live each day to its fullest and try to never go to bed mad at each other. I'm a lucky man,

a woman that is somewhat logical, isn't addicted to social media, isn't liberal, and religious then yes it definitely is worth it.

Marriage is 100% the optimal lifestyle choice. You must obviously pick the right partner, each honor an unbreakable vow to stay true and stay together, and do not let your children consume your identity as a couple.

The only thing I've learned in this thread is that apparently some people aren't as gaseous as me.

I've been married 33 years now and like most of life, there is good and bad. But I can't imagine my life without my wife would have been nearly so good as it has been.

Would you cancel the engagement before the marriage if you could go back?
No.
Neither time.

I didn't start the topic so it matters not to me.

Heck no. No telling what my life would be without my wife…. Pisses me off frequently but wouldn’t trade her for anything

Married people are unable to properly discuss why marriage is good.
It’s pretty simple really.
If you manage to find a high quality person to share your life with and build a family, nothing is more rewarding.
You've got love and friendship that can last the rest of your life, if you work at it.
You also become a better person along the way, as you learn to be less selfish and care about others in a way you only truly understand if you have other lives depending on you.

Yes we know modern things are about self fulfillment and nothing else. You clearly demonstrate the issue with the marriage conversation.
Marriage was never created as an act of "personal fulfillment". It was always about societal stability and cohesiveness by reducing sexual discontent and raising children.
Modern marriage is preached as "personal fulfillment".

if your wife puts out and enjoys fricking (you only), then yes
if not, no
if not, no
