Do You Ever Feel Like You're To Old To Get Married?

[Jmmmfi4]

I DO... I BELIEVE IF I WAS MEANT TO FIND SOMEONE IT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED 20 YEARS AGO.

Believe me stranger you are not missing ANYTHING. If you live in United States statistically speaking your marriage has almost 80% chance of failing in Disaster. Meaning she will take your kids ( 90% of a time courts favor mothers over fathers) she will take your house (if you have one) she will take most of your money from your bank account (if you have any) AND you be paying monthly alimony for the next 18 years. So, while your dream come true X-wife be living in your house (for free) and having sex with all the guys that she can handle and keep your children AND getting free money every single month for the next 18 years, you be living in a basement and cursing the day you decided to get married. Here in Untied States, you are not marrying a woman, you are marrying The State. Not only that, but you finding a True women, who will love you, respect you until the very end, is slim to None. But your chances are extremely high finding a girl who will scam the snuff out of your life, by getting pregnant as soon as you marry her and after 5 years (after 5 years it becomes MUCH easier to handle children) off she goes. It is a messed up trend that has picked up some serious steam in the past 10+ years. Find desperate man, marry him, get one kid, after 4 or 5 years divorce him and rob him blind of everything he got.

These days getting the house is not the best thing, especially if you have a big mortgage.

[Heolurt]

@YesterdaysChild that's the one thing you got from that

[YesterdaysChild]

@Heolurt Half of what guys say here is cauca.

[Heolurt]

@YesterdaysChild it's really not, you and most women don't like to believe the shit men go through in divorces because you don't care, only thing you all care about is what kind of money you'll be getting.
Marriage is only beneficial for women, men lose everything and sure there are those rare instances where the opposite happens but it's very rare.

[YesterdaysChild]

@Heolurt Well don't forget. A lot of women are stay at home mothers who are raising the husband's kids. She doesn't have a career or is getting retirement benefits. So basically she gets the kids, which are expensive to raise because he doesn't have time for them, and nothing else. So why should she NOT get something out of the marriage?

[Heolurt]

@YesterdaysChild actually a lot of women are not stay at home mothers, in fact that's a very small percentage of women these days, most women are in the workforce, also a lot of those stay at home moms are single moms who see their kids as a paycheck. Women do not appreciate men going to work and working hard for 8 - 16hours and coming home making the hard earned money, while the women stay home do nothing and the kids are at school, being a mother is so hard, you're right she deserves all the man's hard earned money. Marriage is a scam.

[YesterdaysChild]

@Heolurt You try being a stay-at-home dad of 4 young kids and you will find out how hard it is. You seem to think the wash and cleaning gets taken care of by itself. Getting kids fed and ready for school. Washing loads of clothes every day. Doing the grocery shopping, taking kids to school. If you have kids under 2, that is a bigger task as you basically have no life because they are constantly needing attention. You must think all they do is watch soap operas and eat bon bons. It is a job in itself, and unpaid. And forget working. You child care costs are most likely the same amount that you make working. So please! 🙄

[Heolurt]

@YesterdaysChild shit is that all? Still a fucking cake walk compared to any labour job I have ever had. I'd take childcare for a lifetime over any one of the hottest or coldest days I've had to work outside. You say being a stay at home mom is unpaid work well for the man, the money he makes is hers and even if she's not a stay at home mom and has a job, then her money is hers and his money is still hers and because women are greedy even if they aren't together anymore, his money is still hers thanks to laws always in favour of women.

[YesterdaysChild]

@Heolurt Well, here is my advice. Go into child care if you think it's easy. People today find it hard to find childcare as it is either too expensive for them, or no one today finds it worthwhile as you need to meet a lot of requirements to have a childcare business.

[Heolurt]

@YesterdaysChild why would I do that, I'm single and I'm making money, I have a house that's fully paid off, a car and bike both paid off, I've finally banked over a $1M and I make lots of money where I work. Is it ideal to take an easy job over hard work, sure but you get nowhere if you don't work hard for it and Im not going to waste my time around no spoiled brats, I would only take care of my own and since I don't date or want kids that'll never happen, I enjoy my freedom, my options and my money too much to have it all ruined by some woman and her kids.

[YesterdaysChild]

@Heolurt And yet you spend time here? 🤔🙄🙄

[Heolurt]

@YesterdaysChild where? On this site? What's this site got to do with anything?

[YesterdaysChild]

@Heolurt Like I said, half the people on here spout bullshit. You can't believe anything anyone says here for the most part.

[Lliam]

I didn't even start thinking about settling down until I was 33 or 34. After that, I was in a couple more long term relationships before I met my future wife. I was 40 at that point and she is 2.5 years younger. We got married when I was your age. We've been happily married now for 26 years.

It's never too late unless you want kids of your own.

[YesterdaysChild]

42 is not too old in my opinion. I don't think my age is too old either.

[AmeerX]

Would you really marry someone at your age? And yes I think if it's for love then marriage has no age limit

[love_conquers_lust]

@AmeerX *face palm*. There is an age limit. You can’t marry children. Second, what the fuck was that first statement? My grandfather in his 90s remarried another woman around his age.

@yesterdayschild Apologies. I’ve argued with this dude before. He’s a Muslim.

[Anonymous]

i get it. i feel like everything is pointless after the age of 25.

[OlderAndWiser]

I am 68 years old, engaged, and getting married on April 27 next year. Too old?

[Bethany22]

Maybe once my parents die I will feel less pressure to get married. It will probably be a great relief.

[NamerOfStars]

Buzz Aldrin was 93. I figure anything beyond that may be too much, though.

[asianfreak]

No. There’s an abundance of stories of people who got married later in life, whether they are famous or not.

[Anonymous]

im too old to stare out the window pensively as i ponder that question, yes.
but I've been married passed on my magnificent genes and so on.

if i was to get married at my age it would be akin to declaring myself an imbecile and having it stenciled on the town hall for all to see.

Marriage requires tethering yourself to... well a lower lifeform if i can put it delicately.
and you need to be very well compensated before willingly enduring that

[Nikki1989]

You are never too old. I know someone that was married for the first time at 72.

[OfMiceandMen]

If I found the right person that completes my life, not at all.

[AmeerX]

You think like a girl. Go to Asia and get yourself a loving woman

[Apple1996]

You are never too old to get married

[Anonymous]

Why do you type in uppercase

[YesterdaysChild]

He hit the caps lock instead of the "a".
