Unfortunately that is what marriage has become. Women get various things from marriage, they tend to take their status from the husband that they can land, they get the wedding day, the wedding ring (another status symbol), they get security, they get a family framework to raise their children. Now with divorce being so common, it's an investment on an eventual court raping a few years down the line.Social_Leper said:Interesting logic. But why do you feel you had to marry her to achieve this state of happiness? Or do you believe that you wouldn't have been able to keep her around (which in itself is a massive red flag) had you not signed a piece of paper and gave her the assurance that should things go down south she is free to take half your assets and a constant stream of income for decades?
I enjoyed my marriage while it held together. You definitely want to screen for a good wife, but the problem is that people can always change, and people can always grow apart. They say that the woman you divorce is never the woman that you marry, and that is very true.
