Never have any disagreements unless you have a split personality. I can name all kinds of benefits of being alone. You might say "what about sex?" What about it? You remember what you did about it when you were a teenager? You didn't lose your hands in the divorce did ya?
I live by myself and I'm perfectly fine with that. I don't need anyone to talk to. That gets annoying after a while. If you have to just pay for it. She'll talk to you and afterwards she'll go home. You don't have to buy it. Renting is just as easy and in the long run way cheaper. Just ask anyone that's ever been married....Or divorced. Don't let anyone tell you it's wrong to do that. Because lets face it. We all pay for it whether directly or indirectly. Anyone that tells you otherwise is full of it.
Your heart probably hasn't healed from your last relationship. But I'm gonna tell you something. It's like having a dog that you've had for years. Then one day that dog runs out in the street and gets killed. Pretty devastating right? Then one day you go get a new puppy and you kind of forget about that other one you had. Ain't no different. There's a whole world full of heart healers. Just don't let your heart do so much of your thinking next time. Sometimes your wiener and your heart have conversations and before you know it your heart is a liar and you start making stupid choices like.....Oh I don't know.....getting married.
I'm not Dr. Phil. I'm Dr. Real....and I just told you the truth.
Keep telling yourself that, and you MAY actually convince yourself of this…but you won’t convince anybody else. Plus…if you grow old, you will grow old lonely with no loving family to care for you, no children to carry on your family tree, no satisfaction of watching your kids grow to successful adulthood, now grandchildren to adore you; then you will die a lonely man.
If you choose to remain single, that’s fine, but don’t be peeing in our boots and trying to convince us it’s raining!!!

You can talk about it all you want. I'm sure it's great having kids. But it's not great having to pay child support. And that's becoming the new thing now days. And 90% of the time the woman ain't using that money to raise that kid.
Trust me it's not the same. Hasn't been for a while. I'd rather die with money in my pocket than a broke lonely old man. Promises and vows don't mean nothing to most people in today's world. The divorce rate in this country is through the roof. When you say "I do" and make a baby with someone you're gambling on losing over half your belongings and most of your paycheck from that point forward. I'm not holding anyone back. If you want your life to suck go for it. That's on you.
Sure if you find the right woman that won't happen. But they don't have a sign around their neck showing you which ones to choose. Anyone that's been married for the past 20 years either got lucky or they just married a really sneaky one. Or they just just figure it's cheaper to keep her and put up with it. When you're 30 or younger it's even worse. Hell now days you ain't really even sure if you're on a date with a woman that was born a woman. Guess that's one way to avoid child support but that's not a very good option.Last edited by okrattler; 08-21-2022, 12:43 PM.

You grew up in and dated in years when it was still legal to slap a woman around a little if she got out of hand. Now days they do it just to show you they can. Things have changed. Yes, it's better to be single. Less of a headache.

I agree on some things you said but that money in your pocket doesn't amount to crap when your gone. Might as well spend it while your here enjoying yourself or passing it on to your kids. Kids are a blessing you will never understand until you have one of ypur own.

I'm not saying that's how it goes every time. But I've seen it happen enough times to make a believer out of me. I don't want to move in with my parents at 33 years old because I can't afford to pay for food,fuel,utilities and clothes,etc. Plus forking over half my paycheck to a woman who refuses to work because she's living off of that money plus welfare and whatever else. No......ain't gonna happen.Last edited by okrattler; 08-21-2022, 05:07 PM.
