I'm cool with the cons of marriage, I know they exist, and I understand that this is just the world we live in. Things can change on a dime.

Word, things can go sour

with that said, I wish their was a realistic form of Marriage insurance that one could pay into in the event that

things go south.

You would have to create some sort of checks and balance system to reduce fraudulent activity.

but maybe 2 times a year you see a marriage counselor and they assess the strength of your marriage.

Marriage is supposed to be sacred.

Nobody really understands what that means anymore...

Marriage is nothing more than a fools investment now.

so now you tryinna call me a bitch?

Yeah. Cuz I was totally talkin to AND about you.... You wanna get married....? Go for it. You got more balls than me. I've done it twice. And twice I've turned good men into evil sons of bitches by giving them everything I thought they deserved and they took advantage of that.

So fuck them.

Fuck love.

Fuck marriage.

Only thing any dude wants anymore is pussy.

I ain't down.

Sucks too.

I used to be a freak.

Now I'm celibate.

AWESOME.

 
Pros , cons, we all know it. So here is my approach if this thread.

A LOT OF US ARE FORCING THENSELVES INTO MARRIAGE!! AND A LOT OF US ARENT WIRED, FINACIALLY AND MENTALLY, TO GET MARRIED.

Lots of us get married to CONFORM TO A SOCIETY THAT DOESNT GIVE A FUCK ANYMORE!!

The TENDENCY IS TO CONSUMME MEN AND WOMEN. Until there is chift its normal to have a high divorce rate.

Let us be honest with ourselves. Let us be true to ourselves and the people around us. A large part of us are not made to get married and raise children.

Props on the marriage.

I'm guessing you are in you 40's-50's.

So then what your saying is.... it's okay to spoil women... But if a woman spoils her man she's a fool.

Lesson learned.

And its T.I.T.S.

too intense to show...

Wish I could....

Stupid nudes get in the way....

Lmmfao and now you have no idea what I'm talking about.

On my way to divorce atm, just outgrew the idea of it being necessary just like i outgrew religion.

Funny thing i got married when i was the most religious id ever been.

Basically, if getting married isn't meeting some spiritual/religious fulfillment, you would be stupid as fuck to do it as a MAN.

You see the horror stories, you know the odds against you...and you still going to do the shit?

Its said that its intelligent to learn from your own experiences, but WISE to learn from the experiences of others. Be wise....

gangbangers....don't know they going to get got...but do they avoid the gang?

that big ass hoe with 5 kids 7 babydaddies but she cute an all rhem niggas paying support...but you still ebrc ....

cop pulls you over with a trunk full of illegal guns with the serials melted off an all git at least 7 bodies, but you mouthing off at the cop.

but marraige frightens you?

y'all niggas are full of shit

so you calling me a bitch, bruh?

Quote me a pro.

so..

can I quote a pro....nah I can't.

but here's the thing tho.

we all have different shit that we like. what's good for me won't be good for you.

being black has pros an cons... some can say more cons than pros... so you want cake soap?

most of the pros are just as selfish as the cons.

just like the pros are beneficial like the cons.

I can't sell you on marraige but I can come at you to not fukk it up if you choose it.

too many negatives hold more weight because you looking for it...just to say I knew it.

other shit is encouraged aswell. how many dudes say work it out? how many women say work it out?

Being black isnt a choice.

My whole thing brother, is why sign up for something thats so hard to find the benefits in; if you have a CHOICE not to...

nope I don't....but I'm not saying you a fool.

I'm saying we can't be mad at a person getting used to being spoiled. women feel entitled, men feel empowered by it.

spoil me obviously I hit that shit right. she sint going nowhere. chase over...need to fund new prey. or...this chick crazy.

Comes back to who you are spoiling.

look at IG...chics think you should do it just cuz they cute...

nah..

 
Only thing I can add to this thread..

All my niggaz that actually got married are doing better than they've ever done right now.. Coincidence? Maybe.. They were stand up dudes prior to taking the vows... But man.. I can't say that these women have hindered their lives..

If things go sour thats a whole other thing.. But right now.. Life is great.. And when I say great.. You guys have no idea how good things are going for some of these cats..

Lol

A lot of hurt feelings in this thread

Pros

Tax benefits

Cheaper insurance rates

Married men tend to live longer and report to being healthier....with women its a wash

Married men earn more than their unmarried peers. And these income differences among men don’t seem to depend on any of the obvious demographic differences, including age, education, race, etc. However women get hit with a marriage penalty, as married females earn less than unmarried women

Cons

Y'all got it covered

For anyone who is financially well off i can understand why you would be hesitate to marry

But otherwise marriage can be a great thing

Married men make more money because they work longer hours.

Here's a simple word problem

Jeffery makes 100k a year, is married to a wife who makes 50k a year. They have three children and live in a four bdrm house in a suburb. They own two car notes and both still have student loans. Jarrod is a single man, early 30s, lives in a two bdrm apt makes 45k a year and owns a 2010 benz. Who has more discretionary income? Who is probably no more than three paychecks away from bankruptcy?

Taxes only become an issue at the 60k bracket.

Health insurance, most men don't go to the doctor so basic coverage is what most will opt for.

As far as living longer, it's better to burn out than to fade away.

not totally true

when you account for hours work, position, salary, experience, etc married men still make more

studies strongly suggest employers tend to prefer and promote men who are married

married ppl car insurance and home insurance rates are lower as well

so living a longer and happier life isn't a benefit now? lol

Nah. I did it cause they was my husbands.

I married them because I thought they were good men...

But men like them get spoiled by the same old thing long enough and they think they deserve a newer version.

Honey I WAS a fool.

No more.

There are too many whores willing to give away what I expect a man to work for. And too many men willing to load up on whores rather than work to get a good woman.

Fuck it.

I'll burn down the market before I put my ass back on a shelf.

Its so many factors... ur homies may be the men those women really want and they won. But like u said right now life is great but for arguments sake all it takes is for that women to no longer be happy and its over wit.... Im generalizing based off u on here that ur friends are pretty well off financially.. which is another factor in their good relationship right now. But lets say 5 years from now God forbid their marriages run their course is those good years of marriage worth what they will lose in divorce court?

There are horror stories from niggas having gf's. You about to tell somebody never get into a relationship too? There's bad stories to everything you can do in life.

I'm hangin by the celibate rope....

Exodus 22:18

Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live....

Google can't translate that.

No. But I can.

If you don't get it, don't ask.

I ain't tryna fuck up anybodys life.

Alls I can say is "Enlightenment" is bullshit when you as old as I Am.

But otherwise marriage can be a great thing

but all monetary benefits.

Same reasons niggas don't want to be married

not all

again married men tend to live longer and report to being healthier as well

and beyond the financial benefits that come with being married, being married is no different than being in a committed long term relationship

with the exception of the couple parting ways, marriage obviously complicates things
