I don't know if I'd consider it a fear. But for the sake of conversation, I believe that fear would be a rational one. The divorce rate is approximately 52%-54%. That means there is literally a greater chance that you'll fail than succeed.

I want to get married and do the family thing one day... But I'm skeptical as hell. If it never happens, I'll be alright. I accept that the world I live in is the furthest thing from perfect or ideal.

What does everyone else have to do with you doe?

The reasoning you have, is the very reason why that number is so high.

Everyone has that, "Well, everyone else is doing it, so its ok", mentality. People go INTO marriage, feelling like they can get out if things get thick.

IMO, the government should start giving tax breaks/bonus/incetive for staying married 10+ years, but that will never happen because America wants us all to stay single for ever.
 
Wrong. The fact of the matter is that you're marrying another person, who is just as fallible as you and the rest of man kind. You cannot account for the thoughts or actions of another person before, during, or after a marriage. You're taking a gamble on the mere concept of love. Plain and simple.

Success is a risk doe.
 
And so is failure. Which the 52% divorce rate doesn't exactly suggest that the odds are in our favor.

See, going into it what that attidude....as soon as something goes down, "eff it Im out!"

Nothing is wrong with the institution of marriage, its the weak *** people that jump into for the sake of normality.

The question is: "Are you and/or your significant other one of those weak *** people?"
 
This is 2015 yall know damb well that marriage stuff is for the birds nowadays.

Marriage is like signing a player to a lifetime contract after a contract year.  Even Lebron got an opt out clause

Its not even the statistics....women change, thats the issue.  They switch up on a dime, they can be totally different from the person you fell in love with, off of a lie that they perpetuated to get into the relationship in the first place. 

Tr1ll are you in a relationship?  Are you married?
 
:lol: if by going into it with that attitude you mean going into it with a grip on reality... Yeah. That's all me.

Failing to plan is planning to fail, especially in a situation like this that will have tremendous repercussions for the man if it does fail because the odds are already in the woman's favor.

One big ring that's not for her but for her friends, one big celebration for a day that is barely about you, a few tax breaks, and an easier legal arrangement when having kids (assuming you want any) doesn't seem like a great deal when you "fail" and end up losing half or more of all the assets you acquire while together, custody of your children if you have any, paying the bill for her legal fees, potential spousal support and child support, and all that wasted time and effort in a relationship that went bad, all because you said two words and signed on the dotted line. :smh: :x |I

Never assume that you know her so well that you don't have to worry. that foolish because people change every day b, and women change their mind more in one day than you probably will in one week :lol: , "LIfe is strange, people grow, feelings change, Nothing really lasts"

But the smart person would hedge risk of "failing" to zero in the event it did happen. its the smart, responsible, adult thing to do, and like it was previously said, if y'all don't plan on "failing" then it shouldn't be a problem because its unlikely to happen.

Think of it as insurance. You cant get insurance on a things that are guaranteed to happen. You get insurance on things that are fortuitous.

yeah I could never do it. Don't see the point if me and her are going to be doing the same thing we did before the ring and ceremony. I might consider it if the ring gave me some super powers or did NTs dream of legitimately erasing her hoeness like Draya and renewing her box and conforming it specifically for me making it the fountain of youth so we wouldnt have the adverse effects of getting old and made the box & booty taste like the most delicious sweet thing in the world (yall can have the sweaty coffee tasting booty) [I dont even eat booty but I would try it if it tasted like that] and ensured she had that round beautiful mass, and that she would always be sexy thick [not NT Thick BBWs] and other powers to be named hereafter, but more importantly id do it if I didnt lose half my stuff and all the other negative stuff if we ever do "fail" and get divorced.
 
its tough for #teamhandsome

While you're young you don't want to waste your looks, but you know one day you'll be 35 and still alone. What then? At some point you have to commit but when will that day come? What if at 35 you're still handsome? Then what? Life is cruel

Not at the present moment, but, you're YOUNG women do change as do young men. That is why you're supposed to wait until you know yourself without a shadow of a doubt.

Realistic? Bruh you talking about 2%. If 52% fail, that means 48% suceed.

Dude women's whole game is predicated on getting men.  Why do you think fake hair and fake butts are so popular nowadays.  Its not to attract other women...they use it to attract men.  Its not until you're with them that you find out about the games and "tricks"

Ive seen, multiple times, women who were so down for their guy, ride or die, there to the end, all of that....then as soon as they jump the broom, TOTALLY change.  Acting completely brand new, couldnt even wait till the reception.  I mean, I SEEN it with my own two eyes....

Man, look at the women that you are focusing on.

This is most likely why you have a skewed POV.

"I'm not going to use the b-word. I just call y'all unstable creatures."
 
From what it looks like most are yall, mentally, aint eem at the point where you eem need to be discussing marrige.

My fault for generalizing.

Im just giving examples, women with fake hair and butts is just a small percentage of the women out there, Im just trying to make a point, women's whole game is built on attracting and getting men, which is why there are so many books, magazine articles, shows, etc about it.

The women who I saw got married didnt have fake hair or butts, but they did change.

I dont have a skewed POV, Im just aware to know whats going out here in the world.

So let me ask you, are you in a relationship or married?
