I got a bad deal unfortunately
Marriage is a 50/50 shot. And a good fraction of the ones that don’t end in divorce are pretty friggin’ miserable. The reward/risk ratio is unattractive.
💯
And the marriage leads to people taking each other for granted which is bad for any romantic relationship.
There are some scenarios where I can see marriage benefiting a woman, but virtually no such scenarios for a man. The only time I’d recommend it is if the man wants kids. Kids stand a better chance with married parents. But for those of us who are blissfully childfree, it seems like a horrible arrangement with lots of cons and zero pros.
I think raising children without a marriage certificate is better for the kids because women are not incentivized to leave the marriage and take all the money. Unless they do a prenup beforehand, marriage is actually bad for kids imo.
