Might just be me, but do I detect a tad bit of bitterness?
just an observation about life; the lay of the land
Have I been touched by it? Ok, yeah; but so have a lot of guys
Marrying well the first time is the number one predictor of financial security for men.
It took me a couple of tries to get it right. Expensive lessons, but worth it
Fifty+ years of Ohio State football has cost me a lot less than any woman I’ve dated for a year or more. And most seasons it gives more in 4 months than all but one of them have given regardless of how long I was with them.
Are men just as bad? Probably, I wouldn’t know, I never dated one
But since one of the original points was the cost of divorce, it’s worth pointing out that a recent YouTube video shows a guy asking a woman what she does for a living as she exits her limo. Obviously caught off guard, she answered, “I don’t do anything... uh... I divorce”. I’ve known women like that. I’ve known women that aspired to that but they could never land a man of means. How many guys has any of us ever known personally that could say the same (that they divorce for a living)? There’s a reason that marrying once is a predictor of financial security for men but not for women.
Kind of a long post given how off topic it is, but it’s the off-season and I’ve had to think about a lot of this stuff recently as I have an 18 year old son that needs to be warned about such things (and the dangers of MGTOW and other such over-reactions to such things).
