Prenups are pointless unless you are a millionaire. There is no good to having a prenup if you are a middle class thousandaire. Everything that you earn while you are married, is community property. Prenups only protect what you go into the marriage with, and a likely settlement in the event of a divorce.


100% incorrect! Prenups eliminate community property. Each persons property and assets are separate, as well as debts.

He's right boys. We all know who this anger needs to be directed at.

Bingo. Look for parity.


Agree and disagree. If 2 high powered folks are married, both their careers are going to be priority #1 and neither is going to work all that hard on the relationship - in my experience, anyway.

You want "parity" in the sense that both sides understand the strengths, weaknesses, priorities of the other and can manage their expectations within that.

You want a solid partnership - not a transactional or, worse, one-way relationship. Those fail, regardless of "parity."

What happens when a judge ignores your prenup? What then?

Most men that say all women are crazy whores usually don't have a woman and just wish they did.

One does not have to marry.

In fact I think plenty of men make the choice to stay single and lead great lives.

If you want to put yourself first and do what you want when you want then stay single and be happy.

If you marry and have kids you will have to put others before yourself and your hobbies, interests, and time doing things you want will diminish greatly.


But you also get the companionship of a wonderful woman (if you choose wisely) and the joy of raising kids.

Basically having a family is trading 30 years of doing what you want for the pride, joy and love you feel for your spouse and kids.

But having a family only works if you are willing to put others before yourself for 20-30 consecutive years.

Misery and heartache occur when men try to both have a family and spend as much time as they like on themselves.

Yes, I still go fishing but now I only 12 times a year and I bring the kids.

Now that the kids are older they are my favorite fishing partners but when they were young it was a pain.

This just isn't true. Divorce is generally damaging financially to both parties, with men usually able to overcome and recover from the damage much faster than women.

also funny that these red pill neck beards tend to preach to others about "personal responsibility", but when it comes to their own love lives they want to blame everybody but themselves

This is the best advice I have seen in a long time about marriage and kids and the reality of it.

Why I am afraid of marriage (


Affairs happen way more than we know, and even more than we want to admit. If you throw EAs (emotional affairs) into the mix, that number jumps exponentially.

quote:

Divorce court is so one-sided against men its laughable. There is literally no problems for a woman in divorce proceedings, so it encourages hyper-gamy and possible spousal abuse.


I beg to differ on that one, sir. I got the house, kids, vehicles, part of her retirement for life, and hell, even the dog. Times are changing.

The kicker of it all is, you never truly know the person you marry. Take mine, for example, it wasn't until after our divorce and 10 years of marriage that I learned about the abuse, rapes, attacks, suicide attempts, etc.

Pay attention to any flags, large or small. Seriously.

Date in your "class" range.

I have hardly heard a hair stylist and engineer having a great married life.

STEM normally marries in STEM or some type of professional job. Well the smart ones.


Quite possibly the most moronic thing I've read, and this is the OT.

I'm a biologist, my wife is a legal assistant. We met in college, when I was in a wildlife biology program and my wife was in an agribusiness program. Both of us have B.S. degrees, I also have an M.S. in environmental and chemical. She just found a field she enjoys that does not require the use of her degree.

We never argue over money, even though I make twice as much as my wife. It's called being an adult and working together to agree on financials.

This.

If you cannot spend a year or two dating a woman and know by then her true motives in life, you are too dumb to be getting married in the first place.

You just have to find a good woman.


Plenty of couples that have two good people get divorced.

My wife has been on my nerves the last week or so and that's OK. It's like everything. There are ups and downs and you compromise in certain areas. She's an incredible woman, great mom, and more than anything, I just like spending time with her.

Terrific argument. I may have to rethink my whole life stance.
