@blakfyahking If I make it seem like it's so simple it's most likely because of the forum of discussion which is why I always emphasize I know there's more to any story. You don't know the true "why" behind a divorce unless you were there through the whole thing. So of course from the outside looking in w/o knowing the intimate details it's going to be difficult to find that grey area that the majority of things lie in. As for your examples in the spoilers...of course people change but there's certain personality traits you have and have had for years. Very few people get new personality traits from the age of 35-40. Of course you mature and become more of certain things but for something brand new about you to just emerge after a certain age? That shit I just don't buy. And yes there are niggas who do get married hoping that the woman will change just like women do the same. You remember that scene in The Best Man where Morris Chestnut was telling his homeboy how he thought the cure to cheating was getting married? You know it's people out there who think that stupid shit. I know it because I've heard niggas say it. Shit like that is what I'm talking when I say there's people who go into marriage w/ unrealistic ideas of just what a marriage is and how to maintain one. How do you evaluate somebody on some shit you couldn't see them going through? Well unless you've never seen your spouse in a pressure situation then you should have a good idea of how they handle situations when their feet are at the fire. Or at the very least how they react to any sort of pressure being put on them whether it be professional or personal. No you can't predict every situation that will occur in a marriage but to say you have no idea at all how you at least think they would react? Yes I'm going to say you simply didn't pay enough attention.
u mentioned ages 35-40 but I notice u skipped over 24 - 34 which is generally the age when a lot of people get married the 1st time
confirmed personality changes or not, people tend to change and that is an undisputed fact
so yeah mofos bring out all sorts of shit at different ages........that alleged "mid-life crisis" shit is real.......and it can happen to mofos at any age of adulthood
people go thru shit and and even surprise themselves at how they didn't even know what personality quirks they had inside.......so how can a spouse confidently predict or even prepare for that?
u saying u should be able to evaluate ur spouse in a pressure situation, but that is bullshit unless ur lucky to see similar situations
and even still, how somebody reacts to one event doesn't mean they will react the same way to a similar event
u really believe u can predict in advance how losing a parent, or losing a child, or going thru a life changing event will affect ur spouse? that's why I believe u using naive logic
hell u even gave a movie as an example..........u really think that there are that many simple minded niggaz out here getting married? haha
makes me wonder how many allegedly stupid mofos u really know, cuz it can't be that many
for the record it ain't just dumb mofos out here finding themselves in bad marriages and getting divorced........cuz shit nigga even I was in TAG classes growing up :joy:
it just sounds like u need to keep living and maybe u will see shit ain't never that simple when it comes to relationships.........hopefully u will never have someone bust that bubble u living in
