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.
You say it's the most moronic thing ever, and then go on to say the exact same thing he said
They must give degrees away where you went to school

It takes a great deal of imagination and sacrifice to make a strong, smart, beautiful woman happy as a wife and mother...but that investment pays for itself countless times over. One doesn't simply decide to be that kind of man. If you've never been in love with an amazing woman you don't even know what you're missing out on...and it's probably better for you that way.
Oh. I have been in love. I date women who I feel that I can form a good relationship with.
My biggest issue is that I cant settle down. There are so many options, but most of them I cant see being with for longer than a short term arrangement.

Where do y'all find these women? My experience is very different. In fact, most women think they can save you.

volod...you claim to be "red-pill"...then you already know how to solve your own riddle...if not...go back and gain more knowledge...the answers you seek are there...Alpha 1.0 or 2.0?...you must decide...if you choose 1.0...then choose a partner that has less SMV than you...and that needs you more than you need her....and keep her reminded of that...look for flags...and take your time...

Marriage sucks. Don't do it.

You aren't ready for marriage yet. You'll feel differently later

Alright, better example for you then. Have a former college classmate who married a hair stylist. They have no issues over money. Hell, my wife's cousin, a hair dresser, is married to an engineer.
My point is still that basing who you marry on the "class" of their job or the money they make is asinine. I mean hell, a mechanic is a professional. A plumber is a professional. What makes the marriage of a plumber to a doctor anymore likely to succeed than the hair stylist and the engineer under T50's "class" guidelines?
That's just a complete bastardization of the institution of marriage.

Lots of studies say cross-class marriages fail at a higher rate.

Dude, you're hanging out with the wrong women. That's on you.

Because I don't talk to my buddy, right?
Let's just forget all of that crap about marrying someone you love and all the other ways we used to find a mate. Maybe we should just employee the tactivs of other cultures--pick our children's spouses based on the career they choose.
"Sorry, Jenny. You can't marry Johnny because you're going to be a doctor and he wants to open a restaurant. You need to marry Richard. He's going to be a lawyer and much more successful."
GTFO with that. If someone can make it work, class doesn't mean shite.

You tell all your friends about your maritial and financial issues?
Posted on 8/30/17 at 12:48 pm to GreatLakesTiger24
Who do you talk to, a marriage counselor?
Do we talk about exactly what's in the bank and what bills we have? No.

So, its not possible to hide stuff? Case in point, my ex hid her entire past of abuse, rapes, assaults, etc. - none of which didn't come out until after the divorce.
OK? Did they have any direct impact on your divorce? If the answer is yes, then you weren't paying attention to the signs of abuse before marriage. And no, before you say it, they didn't suddenly manifest after you wed.

All I'm getting at is m using one friend as evidence to the contrary is ridiculous, especially when you don't know for certain that what you're saying is true

Maybe, but it's much easier if you are intellectually equal, which I think matters more than how much money each makes.
