Where I live (SoCal), the divorce rate is 70% within 5 years of getting married, so the odds aren't even at all. If people get divorced, the man loses his house, sometimes his car, his money, his business, and his children, and gets to PAY the woman for at least 18 years or more. Courts here shit all over men. No thanks!

Dont know from where you got your math...

In both isn't a 50% fail chance...

Russian roulette is with an revolver, one bullet 5 places to be, is a 20% chance to have the bullet

Dating has either 50% fail chance... because that would mean 1 from 2 is your perfect partner, which we know can't be...

Great Take, Bro.

[SecretGardenBlood65]

Good take.

First of all is one has to know their woman. This requires being around for more than a year her Family and friends. Every holiday birthday at least once a month weekend etc. If you do not have access to this then do not marry her unless you know that she comes form a traditional family that holds Marriage as lifetime commitment and their Family would be shamed if she left.-One can find these types in Asia more easily then the Western World.

it is... there's a whole lot more failure chance than 50% tho... cuz the'res prolly only one woman out there that's accually for you, so the chance of failure is accually much closer to 99.99999999999999999999999992%

Glad someone else wrote this so that I don't have to.

[LEADFOOTboi]

@dirk1335 this is why i don't blindly gamble... i like to pick my battles

[Shiningtempest]

@LEADFOOTboi Then dating is utterly pointless, if the chance of failure is 99.9%.

[LEADFOOTboi]

you win some, you lose some... if you have no hope, don't even try... but i have hope

You can say most investors lose money (in the stock market, don't know if it is true or to what extent but...) But it/that doesn't mean investing or the stock market itself is flawed.

I guess I'm not so pessimistic. The fact she accepted a date means she already had the thought of sleeping with you and it didn't disgust her to the point of saying no, so you're half way there. Just dont F it up. 😂

[Truthatanycost]

Some go on dates exclusively for free meals...

[OddBeMe]

It’s Russian roulette where you both have guns aimed at each other. You’re quicker thinking of reasons to dump the person than looking for a connection.

[Havill4nd]

Because you don't know who that person is until you've gotten to know when, just like you don't know if the round is chambered until you've pulled the trigger.

[bulletbob555]

There are no guarantees. They have a equal chance of going right. If they don't as long as it's just incompatibility Thats not so bad long as you had fun and enjoyed yourself. Whats wrong with that?

[Liam_Hayden]

Dating is fun. Marriage is like Russian Roulette. With a half loaded revolver.

[Lman3000]

Hmm guess I got lucky only twice in my life, the other two times I blew my brains out.

[zagor]

Not a valid comparison, unless you're dating Ted Bundy.

[zagor]

If you fail at dating, unlike Russian Roulette, you get to try again.

Because you go indepth slowly until you make analysis to pick some options
