Do you think men get a fair exchange for what they offer women in relationships?

Such as marriage. What actually do men receive in return for their investments.

Relationship isn't contract or business. Rather than fairness, compatibility matters here more. People are different their needs and goals in their lives are different. For some their passion matters more than relationship their the other person needed to complete their part and invest in relationship more. Some do struggle with their past traumas and weaknesses their other person needs to take care more. It's more about how closely we fit together rather than how equal we are or how equally we are investing and getting back in return. Rather it's more about how much one are able to invest and does both's efforts are able to make it whole complete or not.

It's well and good in an ideal world, but we live in the real world. What uou mentioned above is only valid in the honeymoon period, which you're gender is also beneficiary from

[StarWarGirl]

No, but it's secret behind all the successful marriage. There are many such examples.

[Asker]

There are no successful marriages. There are affairs that prompt the man to be more submisive to be in peace

Obama couples, CEO of Infosys company Narayan Murthy and his wife Sudha Murthy are some of example who followed this and so now has a great successful married life.

That's the rich elite. Can't be compared to the 99% of the population. But thanks for answering

[StarWarGirl]

Narayan Murthy when got married he was passionate about his dream to start business. That time he wasn't able to give more time and attention to his wife, neither he was do financially good. His wife Sudha Murthy then took financial responsibility in her hand and worked as teacher. Supported him and held the relationship together till he got stable and completed his dream.

Narayan Murthy wasn't rich that time when they both started.

When a relationship works like this being each other's support and shoulders as companionship it results into most beautiful and successful afterwards.

A rare case isn't an exception for the rule

[StarWarGirl]

Yes it's rare now a days. But it should be like this. I personally believe so and I do follow.

When 90% of marriages are wrecked for profit, a 10% doesn't mean the ratio of risk to success is possible

Relationships are pretty equal. Otherwise they don't last because the barriers to exit are minimal.

Marriage is a different story. There are some marriages that are beneficial to both the husband and the wife, and those are among the ones that last, but they are uncommon.

Today, half of marrages end in divorce, women file 80% of them, and it's common knowledge that men get screwed in divorce while women benefit from it, which is why it is women who file the vast majority of them.

Additionally, marriage in general offers men far fewer benefits today than in the past.

All things considered, marriage is a very unwise choice for men today.

They used to, but not in today's age of massive hoeflation. Modern women are the most fat, worthless, entitled, and ran-through they have ever been and the vast majority of them simply aren't qualified to be wives or even girlfriends.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Usually no. But then most men offer things they should not be offering (like paying for everything, or following her orders).

If you only give her what she gives you, you force her to either accept fairness, or dissolve the relationship, and either outcome is better than marrying a gold digger or control freak.

I'm guessing you aren't in a relationship? Or are in a bad relationship?

In the real world both partners invest money, time and love into the relationship. In return you get a stable relationship, a buddy, love, sex and a partner in crime.

If they pick a good woman ABSOLUTELY! But keep in mind the good women out there are less than 50%. Too many men pick women not worthy of relationships and are surprised it doesn't work out. Too many men are too desperate and thirsty today. Women who use men can smell men they can bully with feminine wiles vs. ones they cannot.

[Billlewis]

No, not at all, and I don't think we should receive as much attention as the women do.

[SoJust]

Everyone offers something to the person in front of him as much as they understand themselves

[OddBeMe]

I’m not sure what’s unfair or what men “give” that women don’t…

[KrakenAttackin]

Not by a long shot.

[KrakenAttackin]

Men give at least 10x what they receive in a relationship, unless he is a Giga Chad, in which case the "relationship" only exists in the mind of the girl.

[Dongie]

Not usually
