Current Events > Are you pretty much screwed the moment you get married?

(+) Yeah! (+)

If you ever decide to back out AFTER a marriage, you do have to pay her a portion of your assets plus child support if you have kids.

It completely depends on who you marry, each of your intentions, and about a million other things

I don't feel comfortable getting married. Too many risks and too little reward. Everyone thinks they found "the one" and it's going to last forever, Walt Disney-esque happy ending, but how many times does it actually work out that way?

Asking for a pre-nup kind of defeats the purpose.

The divorce rate is a little under 50%, so presumably it works out around half the time.

Nope, getting married is the dream.

f you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So from my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall
As soon as he marries her then she starts
To do the things that will break his heart

But if you make an ugly woman your wife
you'll be happy for the rest of your life
An ugly woman cooks meals on time
And she'll always give you peace of mind

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So from my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

Don't let your friends say you have no taste
Go ahead and marry anyway
Though her face is ugly, her eyes don't match
Take it from me, she's a better catch

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So from my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

Spoken:
Say man!
Hey baby!
I saw your wife the other day!
Yeah?
Yeah, an' she's ug-leeee!
Yeah, she's ugly, but she sure can cook, baby!
Yeah, alright!

Get married? Sorry, I don't need a wife sentence.

That's basically what marriage is

That seems to be very accurate actually.

Ive got 4 friends who all got married within the last two years. All four have already or are close to cheating on their wives and two of them are already talking divorce.

You're agreeing with someone who, at the very least, has a bitter incel (redundant lol) gimmick.

Anyway, I have no plans for marriage. Doesn't seem worth it, based on most marriages I know.

And I started going to a homebrew club and all the guys talk about how their wives dictate everything they do. One guy wanted to brew a Belgian that had a huge grain bill but couldn't because of the allowance his wife sets with his paycheck. If that's their setup, cool, I'm sure there's a reason and it works but he looked so forlorn. That's just not the path for me tbh.
