True or False: Marriage is for suckers?
It's true, our society glamorizes marriage to promote consumerism. It's family fascism, Look at all the cars sold in the marketplace. Almost every car sold is a family car regardless of the fact that most people in America are either single, without kids or their kids are grown and drive their own car, even the pickup trucks have family cabs on them now. Not that you bring your kids to work anyway. Throughout the life of the car you will wear out the driver seat and you will watch it go to the junkyard with a never used back seat. Doesn't matter, You are forced to buy a family car, you have no choice. It leaves that glamorous impression about marriage in the minds of people and that there is something wrong with being single. There is nothing glamorous about marriage. When people get married they realize it's nothing like what they thought and they had no idea what they were getting themselves into. It's not the easy life, there is nothing easy about it and many go into marriage and relationships with the idea that they are a good person and that will translate into a successful relationship and marriage. You will come out of that relationship a totally different person than you went into that relationship. It really is a journey of realizing just how different you are from other people. Being single just means you are smart enough to see it's not a right fit and the risks are too high for you and your life and you are better off not going down that road. There are more single people than ever before,
The only reason to engage in marriage and relationships is to have kids and family or maybe to take care of someone less fortunate. If you're not into it for those reasons, It's a really bad idea to get married, stay far away. I'm always surprise to hear to people getting married without the intention of having kids. Why would you do this to yourself? It will likely end in disaster and once children are born it just becomes more difficult. Many have a hard time accepting that for the next 18 years.

Well the ones who suck do have rings on their fingers
Marriage is created by corrupt people or faulty Morso.
chances of me marrying or hooking up with a corrupt person isn’t impossible.
I don’t think I’ll agree to marriage and I don’t think I’ll marry.
BUT if he’s the angel I know he is.
I’ll marry him ☺️- if he asked lol
I just have no reason to suggest it myself. We may hold a ceremony and rings, but it just probably wouldn’t be legal. No need to include possessions and divisions. in my opinion.

False , Marriage is meant for people that know what marriage means period , Understanding your vows and standing by them , understanding. you can’t always be right and your partner is wrong , understanding that love only grows when 2 people. remove selfishness for each other , and sacrifice for each other , understanding we are all imperfect people , understanding it’s you and your partner Vs the world, to build a foundation together , If you have moral beliefs then understand God created marriage for a reason you are getting married to honor God , If you don’t have moral beliefs then I see no reason to get married to someone it becomes more of a piece of paper then anything. Divorce should only occur if cheating or domestic abuse occurs. I will only marry a girl that knows what it means to be in a marriage that wants to be my team partner that works with me , not against me , That has moral beliefs that stands by my side the same way I will stand by her , that accepts my flaws like I accept hers. That removes selfishness for me the same way I will do for her if I find a girl like that, I will be proud to take her hand in marriage. No relationship is perfect but the key to true love is removing selfishness for each other, understanding you are no longer single , Your partner needs to be your top priority over everyone the same way they should be making you their top priority , You can’t expect someone to do for you , if you can’t do for them , All relationships go through ups and downs for love to grow understand you can’t always be right

Marriage is a beautiful thing when 2 people truly have UNCONDITIONAL love for each other. We as human beings are so messed up we ruins it.
- We make it out to be a Disney happily ever after when reality it’s hard work everyday won’t be a honeymoon. You will be super angry at each other sometimes, but it’s through these hardships that you actually grow closer. Sadly a lot of marriages get outed/ tested and fail, they don’t make it through the strain test and divorce.
- People get married for the wrong reasons. The only reason to get married is because you truly love each other, anything else and your weak foundation will be revealed in a couple of years or months of living with each other
- People get married to the wrong person. If you need a prenup then you probably shouldn't get married to them because you don’t trust them. Divorce isn’t a backup it’s a FAT red flag that says I failed at my marriage and I’m a quitter. (Given every situation is different I’m speaking only on the “ sign a prenup” people)
- and lastly bad timing. You can be 40 and still not be ready for marriage yet. It’s ok every caterpillar turns into a butterfly at different times don’t compare yourself. Some are ready at 20 some are ready at 60. Who makes the rules when you should be married?
actual marriage is an agreement that I will give you all my love through action and do what’s best for you without any conditions or attachments other then you be faithful. we place all these other restrictions and try to add on our selfishness and baggage to marriage until it looks unattractive.

False. While I’m not entirely against marriage, I’m not for it either. A lot of people are not good at handling relationships and get married even if they are not completely sure if they want to marry their partner. I don’t see any use in a paper that basically says “hey, you’re married”. I don’t need to prove my love with a piece of paper, but again, if they really are in love with each other and can handle a few ups and downs in their marriage, they can definitely make it work.
I’ll marry my partner if they ask (and if I’m sure about them). If you can promise a lifelong commitment to your partner, go for it. If not, don’t. Simple.

I wish I was a bear, they mate for like 2 weeks and they have honey moon and then as if they never existed they go their separate ways without hard feelings.
But I am a human and I feel like I wish things were that simple. It’s really tiresome, how us, people make everything complicated.

False. There are tax benefits for being married.
Keep that in mind next January - April...

At least half true on the male side (in the West).
Probably considerably true on the female side in places like Saudi Arabia and Iran. (Although those women don't even have a choice in the matter.) - 356 opinions shared on Marriage & Weddings topic. u
The only suckers are the ones who have no concept on how to have a successful marriage. Those people should avoid marriage.

Well I mean, I’m definitely more willing to go down on him if we’re married

The only reason it exists is to concentrate and transfer wealth to the next generation. It's an unfair deal and greatly benefits women. Or one woman. For every 1 woman that marries a rich man, 5 more are forced to be miserable.

I am a sucker for a sexy woman. That's why I had to marry her.

I would do it again in heartbeat, if I met the right woman.😍

Marriage is NOT for everyone and that's okay.

Kinda.
I get still attention of girls in their 18 at random clubbing events. Until I don't lose this ability, there is no need to settle down. - 476 opinions shared on Marriage & Weddings topic.

It is simply a bum deal in practice. Nice in concept and a great way to live if it did work.

You must be very bored. I can see a lack of motivation in your latest posts. How are you gonna survive now that Gag is shutting down? Even PrettyPriya left

Yeah, marriage is for suckers. Be smart. Have kids with one woman and live together and own a house together and share everything in life without getting married. Then, one day, when your partner feels like it, let her drain your bank account and leave you with the mortgage and the kids with no recourse because you didn’t actually have any commitment and, therefore, no legal obligation. That’s the smart way.

I'll tell you what it is.
A type of gamble. The first step and point of no return to potentially lose everything (assets e. g. house) you've obtained and end up in poverty.
I wonder why girls never speak about it. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... 🤔🤔🤔
