lol.

they just hope that it will but they really know it wont. it never does.

Some might and god bless them if it does but if we have to rely on divine providence just to do day to day stuff, is it really what we are meant to do?
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

If you feel that way, either you have some psychological issues of your own, or your feelings toward your spouse/gf/wife are caused by some red flags that have lead you not to trust them. In either case, you shouldn’t be getting married.

I don’t worry about my marriage ending, because I know my wife and I are both committed to it, and neither of us think it will never get hard. It’s tough to make a marriage last in a society where so many people think everything is temporary, but it absolutely can be done if you’re both willing to put in the work to make the relationship last.

Compatibility.

Find someone sexually, socially, and financially compatible.

If you're going to raise children together, you'll need to have deeper conversations in advance so that you agree on parenting stuffs.

But otherwise, so long as you are compatible in those other areas, life will be dandy.
No drama: You know where we are.

My problem is that the question OP asked was has nothing to do with your proverbs. If your wife decided to pack her bags one day, there's nothing you could do about it.

Well that’s kind of a defeatist attitude. You could try and prevent that from happening at the very least.

Do you drive every day? How do you know someone isn't going to run a red light and Tbone you?

The constant thought of dying on your way to work after everything you worked for is daunting. Any day can be the day where someone has a mental laps just rams full speed into you as you cross the street.

Seriously though. Stop being so insecure. Any relationship might not work out. That's life OP. Enjoy relationships while they last and stop acting like a relationship NEEDS to last forever. And stop believing that if a good relationship goes south, your life is somehow ruined.


Been with my lady almost 12 years. We have an 8 month old now. I want to be with her forever. Adore her and our relationship is great.
10 years from now we could be divorced and fuking hate each other. Life is a game a poker. You can be better than others at it, but in the end you can't control the cards that come out.

I know it will last because I have not been lazy in taking care of my marriage, I have been diligent and it has paid off in that I do not have constant thoughts of divorce or my wife coming after everything I have worked for, I am confident that when problems do arise in my marriage, our love for each other will help us to overcome them. There is a lot I could do about it, whether what I do or say keeps her around is a different story. I think the scripture was quite relevant but you’re entitled to your opinion.

In this day and age much bigger risk. I opted out after seeing the only women who wanted me were for my money. If you are too ugly, don’t get married.

Statistically speaking, the chances of divorce are MANY times higher than this ever occurring.

I am married and have been for a few years. I enjoy it. It's great. We are almost telepathic at times. Like if we see some rando girl a friend is banging order wine at a sports bar so she appears classy. We glance, laugh on the inside, and move on. I think it's great.

I don't know how some of you guys live with danger creeping around every corner. When you are under the bar do you have such negative thoughts? How do you even lift with such negativity in your life?

This. All the anti-marriage miscers are either FA kissless *******s or major cucks who had girls cheat on them. If you're smart, responsible, and know what to look for in a girl, you can do fine.

Type of response from someone who has never met a good, quality woman. If you never talk to women then you'll put your trust in them far too easy. It's because you're weak. Be a good judge of character with a MGOTW styled mindset so that you don't get attached to a woman for the sheer fact that she's a fukin woman, then proceed from there. It's not impossible to find a wife.

There's nothing you can get in marriage that you cannot get out of it. Meaningless risk.

I was with my wife 7 years before we got married so we've already been through the good, the bad and ugly and got through everything together. Things like that make it last,not rushing into things either like getting married after a few months is just crazy.

EXACTLY. Everybody thinks their wife or future wife is different. News flash: the guys getting raped financially because of divorce thought the same thing. It's human nature to think you're special and different... you aren't.

That said the best you can do is make an educated guess on betting your future and money on a woman. Essentially, marriage is just a contract that says if a woman decides to leave you she has legal rights to financially rape you and destroy your life while searching for Chads on your dime.

I'm not married but I've told my long term girlfriend that if we do get married we're signing the strictest prenup possible. After I give my reasons she can't logically give a valid rebuttal and agrees.

Together 3 years, lived together 2 years, everything is great and being that we lived together 2 years what could really change?

Every now and then I consider the "what if's," but then go back to realizing I couldn't do anything about it anyway so why worry?

We are super open about everything and she has told me multiple times if I thought I needed to "get it in" another place tell her instead of cheating because she would prefer to just let me. I have never given her the same pass back to that extent but basically agreed that she should do the same.

That said the best you can do is make an educated guess on betting your future and money on a woman. Essentially, marriage is just a contract that says if a woman decides to leave you she has legal rights to financially rape you and destroy your life while searching for Chads on your dime.

I'm not married but I've told my long term girlfriend that if we do get married we're signing the strictest prenup possible. After I give my reasons she can't logically give a valid rebuttal and agrees.
Why would you be marrying someone with such a power distance? This isn't 1950 anymore. Women make six figures too. Marry one of them.
