It all seems to boil down to money, never enough always want and need more stuff, no one is happy unless they can shop and buy anything at any time.


true women love money

Once upon a time, a Prince asked a beautiful Princess......

"Will you marry me ?"

The Princess said "NO!!"

And the Prince lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and drove exotic cars and went fishing and hunting and gambled and smoked cigars and played golf and dated beautiful women half his age and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up.

THE END

(OP), if your out there.

This is for you and you alone (OP).

I`ll be brief.

I`ve read your posts.

Regarding your concern, I`ve posted this matter about 4 to 5 times on GLP, in the past..........pay attention!!

In 197X, in U.S. NAVY/MARINE pilot training, off Gulf Breeze, Florida, I was visited "in plain view of a fellow Marine 2nd Lt. buddy of mine and about 500 or so people, by TWO BEINGS"

These Beings presence made the crowd go hysterical as if they, the crowd, were possessed and my friend became terrified and frozen.

The crowd went into a vortex motion around the picnic table that myself and my buddy were sitting at. These these beings cut through the crowd perpendicular to the vortex motion, like a knife through butter, totally unscathed.

The women who were running around our table were like they became insane instantly and were tearing off their bras exposing their bare breasts, as the men chased them.

My buddy frozen in place as I stood there speechless to one of the most bazaar events I have ever witnessed, in my life.

As the beings approached me, the beings and I, had conversation expressing my concern of what I witnessed........CONCERNING WOMEN AND HOW THEY CHANGED.

One of BEINGS was one inch away, the other about three feet.

They were very much concerned about this and agreed on my observation.


They stated, "IT`S THE WOMEN ISN`T IT"?

I said, "YES"

They stated, "WE KNOW"!!



After a period of time, the BEINGS walked away, the crowd immediately stopped, my friend came out of shock slowly.....and THESE BEINGS DISAPPEARED.

........obviously, I was emotionally moved from this experience.


I hope this helps you.

people get married to find happiness instead of getting married to bring happiness.

the way of get is never eternal, the way of give is eternal.

the paradox of the virtuous circle is that all eat and are filled (even you!) although you gave your portion away.

Re: Divorce Rate in the USA ......any reason why ?
It all starts in the beginning nice dinners, and gifts etc.
Always going out somewhere and spending money...

Then Marriage and it is cool for a year or 2 then comes a mortgage and kids and multiple car payments...

Then the women does not feel special anymore, she wants things to be the way they were travel and dinners and gifts.

Or the guy realizes this is not what I thought and this costs to much.

Then comes job losses or medical bills etc. over spending on credit cards, lots of stress due to financial problems and boom the party is over......

Re: Divorce Rate in the USA ......any reason why ?
Because our (in)justice system gives bitch women unfair advantages in divorce. Men get screwed...that's why marriages are down. Women display their alter-egos once they are comfortable with their lovers, which is total, unreasonable bitchiness. Who wants to marry a bitch that will ultimately make them miserable?

When I hear stories of a man killing his wife, I never have sympathy for her, but for him because I know that she pushed him over the edge. More women that die at their husband's hand will teach living bitches to tone down their bitchiness, or so one would think, but as non-thinking, reactionary creatures, women are incapable of learning lessons. Couple that with the coddling females get from their families and society at large, women aren't forced to live with their consistantly bad choices.

It boils down to one thing: women are all crazy bitches in spite of the public "happy faces" that they wear. If it weren't for their vaginas, they would all be put to death at birth.

Re: Divorce Rate in the USA ......any reason why ?
Theoritically, even if the divorce rate were about 50%, that still doesn't account for unhappy marriages.

That being said, more than half of the marriages in the U.S. end up in either divorce or in terrible disarray.

I'd like to say that 2 out of every 4 marriages end in divorce. 1 of 4 marriages ends up unhappy and bitter, and then last one works out okay.

Unrealistic though, I don't remember the last time I saw a couple under the age of 40 that was married and still "happy" or whatever the version of married happy is.

I bet a lot of these relationships would last a lot longer though, if they didn't have children.

Re: Divorce Rate in the USA ......any reason why ?
Because abuse is now brought into the light. The shame of an abusive marriage is no longer hidden. People now have a choice in whether to continue a bad marriage or escape. Men are trying to blame feminism for all there problems. If men had been better toward women feminism may never had happened.

Men assign tasks, "womans work", "mans work." It has become normal for men to expect a woman to work and care for kids and a house, especially if his paycheck is larger than hers.

Granted, this is not in every household, but it is in many. Nobody has to put up with abusive spouses anymore, if they can help it. Many women can be abusive also, they know that they can blame the husband and get out of it.

Re: Divorce Rate in the USA ......any reason why ?
Thanks for the hard numbers,OP.

My own opinions are that the reasons for divorce vary but boil down to a few key things:

1. Some people aren't mature enough to be in a relationship - they expect someone else to 'fix' them or be responsible for their happiness and don't handle conflict well - not enough patience, communication skills and so on. They never sorted out their own issues or baggage first. They have anger from things in their childhood, previous relationships and so on that they then direct at their spouse.

2. Some people just don't want to be alone but continually have an eye for 'trading up' - women for more money, men for younger or better looks. They get married for convenience, or to please families, or because they don't want to be alone but are out as soon as they think someone better has come along.

3. Laziness - some people view relationships as disposable,and that extends to marriage. If things get tough they bail rather than sort out problems. They don't see relationships as something you need to put effort into - they think the husband should do this or the wife should do this automatically, without any incentives. They fail to realize that you get exactly what you put into the relationship in a lot of cases.

4. Martyr complex. Some women seem to see some sort of special status in tolerating crap from someone. Men do the same thing to a lesser extent. The longer they stay and the more they tolerate or even enable bad behaviour (drug use, abusive language, cheating) the bigger the kudos they get when they finally do leave. But always left out is WTF they married them in the first place? Remember that quite often, like attracts like and the 'martyr' has a darker face than the one that gets presented to those who take pity on them.
