What are your thoughts on marriage? I was talking with a friend last night after a couple beers and he thinks that marriage isn't even really a choice, because humans naturally look for a mate and marriage is america's way of being with a mate and providing for kids. I argued that marriage wasn't neccessary. Your thoughts?
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My stance on marriage is simple. I won't get married until I have financial stability and I can buy my own house. I want my kids to live in their own home, have their own room and backyard to play. I don't want them to have to move around to different places like I had to because my family couldn't buy a house. My wife won't be allowed to work she will stay home and take care of the kids full time. No kid of mine is going to a stinking child care center or have some mean ol nanny! why would they if they have a loving mother?
one of the reasons kids these days are so messed up is because they don't have a parent with them to raise them. Instead they are raised by television and the crap they learn in school from the other spoiled bad kids. In order for me to get married my wife can't be a feminazi biatch that puts carreer over her own children first (sadly this is most women today).
Will I ever find a woman that meets my requirements? maybe, maybe not, but I won't be lowering my standards I don't want to end up an statistic like all the divorces every year. For me to be married I have to have a career, a good paying job that means im financially stable and I can afford to buy my own home for my future family. I will have to find a woman that I fall in love with, meets my moral requirements and the requirements of the type of mother I want her to be. If not then ill die alone I don't mind having a hundred girlfriends throught my life
There always comes a time in a man's life when he finds a really special girl to him and he wants to make her his and his only. If all the other stuff adds up (financial stability, moral and mother requirements) than I might consider proposing to her.
The problem with marriage nowadays is that people get married without financial stability and the children and marriage suffers because of it.

Marriage is scary. Something better always comes up. Imagine buying a laptop. At the time you bought it, you got the coolest looking, state of the art, best laptop money can buy. You wait a few more years, and guess what. Even newer laptops that are cooler looking with more sophisticated techonology come out. And they are even cheaper now. And you cant buy a new one. You cant even "rent" a new one. Or you are not supposed to at least =)
Same analogy with marriage isnt it?

people don't treat marriage as sacred institution anymore. It is attacked by gay groups. Marriage is symbol between man and woman that's all. there is no alternative version. It is being distorted by gays as ligit way of nature. It disgusts me to see society has gone down the toilet.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
marriage is a official contract between two individuals , they promise to stay faithfull honest and such and if they break those promises then the contract can be broken and such they get divorced.... In the old days Marriage was used by kings and such to make alliances between other clans/comunities. They did it in a curch because they beleived it would make the relationship more blessed , they werent told to do it in the curch by god or jesus.
it was a choice they themself made.
Today marriage is the same as old days , its an contract between two indiviuals , but people sign that contract waaay to fast and therefore end up braking it many times...
marriage isent neccessary , its just that society makes you beleive that marriage is sumthing everyone should have before they reach a certain age , if you brake those norm and rules you can be considered an outsider and therefore feel alittle shut out.
But the truth is marriage isent a necessaty , you can have a deep and meaningful relationship you can have children and raise them with your partner without being married , i feel that todays society puts such a pressure on marriage to be a certain way , a way that is nearly too perfect , that when people strive to make theyr marriage that way they end up basicly destroying theyr relationship.....
