Who told you that?What im saying is that marriage SHOULD have benefits...financial ones especially.

Last week looked my wife in the eye and told her I was done. I wasn't in love with her anymore and to keep forcing a marriage that I no longer wanted to be in would be doing nothing but further poisoning an already damaged union. No more counseling, no more endless talks about why I won't forgive her for not supporting me at the most crucial of crossroads, no more bullshyt.
First steps towards freedom brehs

@Rekkapryde still holdin it down as well
From what I read she didn't say she was leaving him. And not all women are the same so shut the fukk up with the women are all about money approach.
Yall got married before living together?
divorce is really like a death.
stay strong
Ah now this thread makes PERFECT sense.Been listening to that last verse lately... The truth in that entire song is just one reason why Nas is GOAT
If your ultimate goal in life is to always be happy, or comfortable, then you should definitely not get married..
Marriage is for people with less loftier goals..
In fact if your goal in life is to always be happy then you might as well swallow a whole bottle of sleeping pills right now..
If you find yourself in a state of constant misery that's one thing.. That's not good for your mental or physical health...But temporary pain or discomfort is a part of life and all real relationships...It actually builds character and teaches life lessons..
But if you really don't love someone from the jump then none of that stuff matters.. They could forget to put the cap back on the orange juice and you'll see that as a breaking point or ultimate sign of disrespect.. Trust me I've been there..
If Ziggy is describing the end of his union as "freedom" there seems to be more to this situation than just her complaining about his career choice..
For OP's wife to say how proud she was of him AFTER THE FACT was real fukked up. There's certain shyt with people that will make that heart turn cold, so I aint e'en mad at the breh
I aint necessarily mad at OP @Ziggiy ...for her to say some shyt like that and essentially act like she was "better" than him in her own ambitions was REAL fukked up.
You gotta build together and believe in each other's dream and most importantly support each other. My old lady makes damn near 25K more than me per year and I'm doing pretty decent in my job. But she's never thrown her pay weight around or made a nikka feel like inch high private eye and shyt. shyt, I even pushed her to take on positions that she didn't feel confinder in herself to apply for. Anyway, she'll be getting out of the corporate world pretty soon and we gotta start preparing for that shyt TOGETHER. It's gonna be challenging at first, but we'll make it through as a team.
Marriage isn't easy or is anything like that bullshyt you see on TV.
shyt can be hard man, but having someone believe in you >>>>>>>>
I was coming out of the Army, deciding what I wanted to do. Decided I wanted to go back to work for Best Buy. She looked me right in my face and said "So your going to be 35 years old making $12.50".
That was literally the moment where I completely and utterly fell out of love with her. NO woman in the history of my existence has ever been allowed to disrespect me, my work ethic, nor my decision making to such a disgusting level. Especially a woman whose hand I took in marriage...
So I did exactly what I had to do. Started back at the bottom part time and worked myself back to Manager in 5 months. Three promotions, three pay raises (plus bonuses). And after that time period I didn't feel as if she deserved to be a part of my success as she wasn't supportive during my hustle and struggle. Once I made manager she wanted to talk about how proud of me she was and all that shyt but I told her straight up I didn't make it because of her. I made it DESPITE of her and I didn't want her nor the marriage any longer. I actually told her all of this two months ago but she begged and pleaded for another chance talking about how sorry she was and she always believed in me and she was just frustrated during that time period. She wanted to go to counseling and I tried it but nah....the damage had been done. Once you disrespect a man.... TRULY disrespect him, he will never forgive you
You're the reason why the divorce rate is so high
In 4 years when that Best Buy is a Shoprite all you'll have is this coli thread
She'll be making lawyer money building with her second husband
All because she had the audacity to question one of your decisions
You really showed her
