Posted: 7/8/2005 10:17:09 PM | | Marriage will never be perfect because human beings are flawed and born with a sin nature. Marriage was ordained first between Adam and Eve (literal people, not a fairy tale). Even great kings of Israel had their problems in marriage. Solomon the King, son of David, had one thousand wives. I rather think one woman is enough trouble hee hee. The trouble with society is that people have gotten off the track as to what the standards of marriage are. The Bible is very clear on marriage and the family and our society is failing. We have sown the wind and reap the whirlwind. | |

Posted: 7/8/2005 10:23:33 PM | It's worth it if:
1. Your prenup is impenetrable.
2. Your wife is smoking hot, loves your c*ck, and hates other men.
3. And you have enough money to survive the divorce. | |

Posted: 9/20/2005 8:48:55 PM | | I agree with you . It seems that marriage has become a legal contract. It has become a source of revenue for our court system. I myself suffer the fate of having to deal with a woman I really would like to avoid. but, i love my son, so I prevail. i'm 49, and don't see myself making that contractural mistake again. Two people should be able to co-exist, if not, it is not meant to be. | |

You get out of it what you put into it.
If you marry someone who is only in it for security, money or whatever, instead of love, then you should have looked at that person closer, or put her/him through the best friends test.
Introduce him to friends and keep going out with those freinds and sometimes they can see what your rose-colored glasses are blocking.
You gotta listen though.
Plus, I had thought if someone went into a marriage and treated it like a roommate (except for sex!) it would be better.
Most of the arguments are about money. So, if you decide ahead of time, how much each person puts on rent, food, utilities, etc, it might not be so bad.
Then again, I have never been married or lived with anyone so my idea is probably crap! | |

I am not going to bash you for your post, it is your opinion.
Although I do not being included in your list of being a manipulative, compulsive liar, and gold digger.
It may be the honest truth for you and your friends but do not presume to judge the entire female race with your experience and yourself.
Just as there are good men out there and bad ones. The same goes for females. I happen to be one of the good ones.
I do not manipulate, I would hate it if that were done to me. I do not understand what that would be for anyway. I come right out and say if I want something and I ask. If the answer is no, I am okay with it. I do not nor have I ever, had time for stupid childish games. I had them played on me and it hurts. I do not intentionally hurt anyone. I am too sensitive to do things like that to humans or animals.
I am not a compulsive liar. That is a actual medical problem. If you can't help but lie all the time then you need to see a doc for it.
People who are like that often have a difficult time seeing reality. They end up believing their own lies to be the truth. I pity those people.
as for being a gold digger, I DO NOT prostitute myself and I do resent you implicating that I do.
That is what a gold digger does. IF she is after a man just for the money as you mentioned your friends are, then they are plain and simple whores.
Man $ + woman sex = prostitue.
Women who go after men just for money, women who marry for money, women who do anything for money = whores.
Plain and simple.
Men who do the same for rich women, they are whores.
I myself have dated men who have nothing to men who have some but not rich. One man had a rich mother, guess how she got her money? Marry rich old men with one foot in the grave. So this is how that boyfriend thought of women and said he never wanted to get married, never wanted to talk of money. He even made a suggestion for me and my Mom to work on a certain someone and I damn near tore his head off.
How dare he think that my mom and I are whores like his mother, is what went through my mind. Then I felt pity for him. This was his growing up experience with his mother, never knowing his father, having another man's name as his, seeing her marry several times and get in the will just before the guy dies. A little boy under that influence would of course see only that women are gold diggers (whores)
This is why I resent this so much, that a woman would actually look at her way of life, her friends, and put that label on all of us.
You have your opinion but don't label me for what you are. I am nothing like you.

Posted: 9/22/2005 11:14:01 PM | | Marriage is definitely worth it. I had the best time of my life when I was married. I was married almost 12 years. My only regret is that is was for health only. When I got cancer, she started planning for a divorce. | |

Posted: 9/22/2005 11:45:52 PM | | Do i think marriage is worth it ? Do i believe a woman is incabable of falling inlove and out to destroy me ? . Well i have been married twice and have had two long term relationships . I left those marriages and relationships with those women as friends or on good terms . I dont believe women are out to destroy men and that they indeed are capable of love and ,even for myself i never truely knew what being inlove was till my last long term relationship which simply ended because of family and distance issues. I would like to read this book Larry speaks about but dont know that i would take everything seriously to heart . I was married the first time very young and had a military career that i gave up to be with my family but we divorced in five years be it drifted apart or simply we were just to young . My second marriage brought me a son who i adopted and i am thankfull for everyday and although i believe she at one time did love me , she decided to find love elsewhere. But destroy me ??? Not one woman in my life has set out to destroy me for what i worked all my life for .Family is everything and i support my son and always have and rightfully so .Lets face it , We all take pieces of what we have learned from past experiences and relationships in the hopes of finding our true love and lasting a lifetime. This is what marriage is about .Anyhow this is just my view on this subject...........Peace | |

Posted: 9/23/2005 12:00:21 AM | @Last call.........wow, that sucks. After twelve years? What the hell is with some people? Sorry to hear that fella and best of luck with your battle. You seem to have a good attitude though, I wish the best for you.
Having never been married, I would like to think that when and if I do choose to settle down and build a family and a home, it will work out nicely. | |

Posted: 9/28/2005 5:16:02 AM | | I have very 'old fashioned' values and morals. I believe that marriage between a man and a woman solidifies the bond and commitment between them. I strongly believe in marriage, and I am looking forward to it, if that day should ever come for me. | |

Is this a joke?
If you read that,then I say this.
Don't belive every thing you read.
If you do, you then show just how smart you are.
In return you may get just them type of women.
Then you wonder why.
Enough said. | |
