MARRIAGE: The ruination of woman?

[Japher]

People get married when they find someone they can't live without

If the two of you really are in love, why worry about this?

And who ever said for true love is full of it, IMO, true love does not exist at the beginning of a relationship. The only way to know if it is/was true love if, at the end of it all, she/he is still there...

Why did I get married?

I got married because I loved her, and I knew that it was what she wanted. She wanted me to commit to her, and her likewise. It was more of like a big promise than anything else.

Note; those who marry for love, or for a slave, or for a master should not get married.

Like her I tell her; "I love you to death"

Benefits? She gets my medical insurance, we share our savings and earning... that's pretty beneficial if she makes less than me...

Very true. I've got quite a few decisions to make over the next few days starting with my paycheque that I'm getting today.

That's an awful hard way to get medical benefits. Why don't you ask her Japher, why she married you. I doubt this would be high on her list.

"I got married because I loved her"
"those who marry for love... should not get married."

Interesting points you make.

You don't get it? You don't mary for love, you marry because of love.

Also "I knew that it was what she wanted" is rather important too...

Probably not, but we lived together for 5 years before we got married. We were fine, it was really the only 'benefit' that came from getting married... That, and her bible thumping parents could stop telling us that we were going to hell...

Speak for yourself. I got an automatic donut maker, and she started swallowing. A donut maker!

Riiiiight. I guess that marrying because of loving is doing something for love, as in doing love a favor. There are always a few different ways you can read any one thing. For the record, I'm a hopeless romantic, although last night a friend of mine from LA and I arranged to get married and rent an appt. in NYC in case we couldn't ever find anyone good.

I was wrong.

the guy is the one to propose out of tradition. Now days, sometimes women propose.

women used to only benefit the man. It was a good way to take a woman off the market and essentually make her yours.

But since the advent of feminism (I'm not saying this is a bad thing), the tables have turned. Now women can do anything men can do. But, here's the big but, they can still take whatever the man earns. So they are essentually getting two paychecks, and the man gets nothing. And women still come out on top in divorce court almost always.

And now days women don't even raise the children they decide to have. They would rather work and shove the kids into day care and let strangers raise their kids. I'm not saying a woman should stay at home, but one of the parents should.

Now women can do anything men can do.

At Ashton Court festival at the weekend I found out that to avoid toilet queues women can even pee into urinals standing up but they look really stupid doing it.
