I will say I agree with Dave Ramsey here:

Why does she refuse to move with her husband. It's weird.

The easiest way to do that would be having the freedom of not having to come up with the mortgage every month.
Nah cause you still need income without a mortgage to live…If you build up income to more then cover mortgage and fit your lifestyle your good

"Womanhood" still swinging for the fences hoping they trap men into a marriage :mjlol:
That’s all this is. Men know it’s inherently a terrible deal for us. Also more and more men are not religious any more. That was the last bastion of men who still see marriage as a duty.

These new crop of brehs are like :childplease:

1) Why must the endgame of marriage be present for one to "have their heads on straight"? This seems to be your insinuation.
2) The factors listed in the first article for why they aren't 50% support the idea that the institution in question isn't for everyone or at best isn't something that needs to be entered at a specific timeframe that benefits one half of the venture.

I flipped the script on em whenever they bring up marriage. Now I gotta long list of demands and I always hit em with "I know my worth" :pachaha:

You should see the look on these broads face when I tell them I expect my wife to work and I want 100% control of her finances :ufdup:

My parents and my ex wife's parents are both still married,
Me and my ex wife both have multiple degrees each. (she's a doctor, i'm an accountant)
We both earn over 6 figures
We went to church together every sunday and attended bible study on thursdays.
We waited until after we were married to have kids.
We didn't even meet until we were both in college.

Still got divorced.
What happened? :gucci:

I think it was @Sonic Boom of the South spoke about a guy that was married to a doctor and slept in separate bedrooms in a $3mill house because they couldn’t stand each other, even though on paper everything was lovely. :sad:

It's complicated but ultimately I think having a child reveals whether are not your beliefs are compromisable or not. When its just the two of you, one person can be liberal and the other more conservative and you can still get along just fine. When you bring a child into the mix these beliefs start becoming more important to the foundation of their upbringing things can become unmanageable. You go from accepting each others quirks to giving ultimatums

You didn’t discuss how you would raise children before you had children? :dwillhuh:

Or During marriage counseling?

Odd that would come up out of the blue once kids came along, someone must’ve not’ve been forthcoming.

We did, but putting whats discussed into action are two separate things. Somebody said this about boxing, Alot of people have a plan until they get punched in the face. applies to relationships too.
