I'm DONE with Marriage...

And they LOVE it.

Thank you, this is something I will definitely consider.

I'm at the point now where I'm willing to try anything.

Yes, I think it's worth saving.

She's not a bad person by any means.

OP: don't listen to these women.

the real story is that in the last 50 years, men have been stripped of all their rights, certainly in marriage, and probably in civil life as well. While we try and tolerate these odious harpies, they tell us they are 'disadvantaged' and in need of more 'equalization' and adjustment of rights and privileges.

the next phase we'll experience is one where men simply stop marrying altogether. Today, marriage isn't something the smart and successful men generally do, its what the losers do. The average American woman will spend her late teens, 20s and 30s fucking every guy shes sees, sleeping with douchebags and thugs, and basically being a complete whore. When she realizes she doesn't quite have the magic pussy anymore (usually at an age somewhere between 28-35), at this point she find some loser, gives him some pussy which he rarely gets, and get's him to believe he just won some really difficult contest by getting her. Any discussions about her past love life is absolutely off the table, or some various excuses are made. This loser inevitably has some kind of income or assets that she can use- this is the most important standard by which she measures this person whom she will refer to as 'the love of her life' (that she meets when she begins to lose her physical attractiveness). She promptly removes all people who might conflict with this theatrical performance- ex-boyfriends, rational family members, etc.

Marriage was once a very different proposition. Women got married not long after reaching sexual maturity. Women who slept around were looked down on. Women who had children without a father were shamed.

So, today after seeing an absolutely epidemic of divorce, single motherhood, unabashed whoredom, etc. Men are SIMPLY GIVING UP. There is no awards in marriage. Family is not one of them. Sex is not one of them. Companionship is not one of them.

Romantic dinner may work, it's worth a shot but probably will not because women operate on their feelings so when the good feelings from the romantic dinner wears off she will likely revert to previous / true form. If that happens, and it probably will, you need to cut her loose.

Move on with your life, follow your path, create your own destiny--this will make you confident and women are attracted to confident men like bees to honey. From a confident position invite women into your life, they stay as long as both parties are enjoying the relationship, when she starts bucking up, cut her loose. Repeat as necessary. NEVER marry and NEVER have a kid because you lose your life and identity--you become a legal wage slave! If you are not married (NEVER marry) and she comes up with a kid, you may have to pay for the kid but NEVER marry her because she has just proven herself to be duplicitious. Marrying her will NOT create a family, it will make you her legal wage slave.

I have noticed a LOT of women have changed after watching all of those sick reality shows, especially the Real Housewives crap.

My wife used to watch mtv. So i cancelled the cable. Haven't had tv in five years. You have to manage your woman, dude. Not like a redneck dickhead but as the leader of the family sometimes you need to make decisions that benefit everyone's ultimate welfare. If she bitches, so what. She'll get over it. And if she doesnt then syonara sucker. Have a nice life. Some things require a fatalistic attitude.

Some modern day brainwashed chicks may not agree with my methods and same with wimpy ass femenized dudes. But if i let my wife run the show we'd be destitute in debt. My boys would be gay. And my daughter would be a slut. Thats just the hard facts. A woman's perception base is not the same as a man's. And perhaps, just perhaps, a man's understanding of the big picture is more accurate. I don't see guys reading cosmo as a source of enlightenment.

As a result of assuming head of household, my family is completely debt free, minus cell phone bills. Our cars and house are paid for outright. Our kids are outstanding individuals that exercise good judgement and take zero amount of shit from anyone including their teachers. They will be leaders in their community as adults.

So maybe her downward spiral into manchurian tv brainwashing is simply a reflection of your choice to not take your position as leader of the family. Enforce a moral code. Set clear and consistant standards for everyone, including your wife. Life and family life is not a bobbleheaded happy go lucky drift through time. It requires work, attention to detail, and duty. All of these things are a manifestation of love. Follow this path, with tenderness, and your wife will feel secure and protected. She will respond in ways you cant imagine. Im married 7 years now and my wife jumps on me every night. She has nothing to fear or stress. She is healthy for no television. Instead we read books and take walks. I listen to her chatter endlessly about everything on her mind. Tv kills families and marriages. So does facebook. Good luck.

find a nice guy whos only interest is your butthole...

other day she freaked out over something small and talked to me in that condesending way and I just looked at her and smailed and said "thanks for that - you reminded me why I will never have a serious relationship again

Trust me, I took my vows very seriously.

I'm willing to try and make the marriage work still.

I can guarantee we don't have the most fucked up marriage out there. Not even close.

Which makes it all the more frustrating that she wants to end it.

Let me repeat, SHE is the one that wants to end it.

I don't.

But, if it comes to that, I will have to move on.

And it certainly seems like it's going to come to that.

I'm also done with serious, and long-term relationships.

I'm taking a break from you women.

There's a very good chance I'll be getting a divorce. Soon.

I'll admit, I'm not the most perfect person, and I'm also not the most "perfect" husband. We all have our faults.

BUT, I'm not a drunk/drug abuser, I never abused her physically/mentally, not did I ever fuck any other women.

"So why are you getting a divorce then," you might ask?

That's a very, very good question.

My wife has been living in a reality fantasy world for the last 5 years or so. She literally comes home from work, plops her behind on the couch and goes through the routine of watching these shitty "reality" shows night after night.

She wishes she was one of those millionaire housewives, who have access to lots of $$$, fancy cars, and opportunities to travel abroad, and rub elbows with the elite.

I'm a simple man of modest means. I'm not a materialistic person. I don't chase the money. Never have, never will. I don't need a fancy car, or the big house. Just give me internet access, some books to read, a few games/movies, and I'm set.

Do I have the greatest job in the world? I think I do. I'm a cook, hoping to one day become a chef (still a long ways off). I work a lot of hours and hardly make a dime, but I'm happy, and that's all that matters.

Her words have stuck with me since we got together. "Baby, I don't need money. I just want us/you to be happy. That's all that matters to me."

How quickly she changed her tune.

Yes, people change over time. People grow out of love.

But this one is just frustrating.

She says one thing, and does another.

Her favorite trick is to avoid confrontation all together, and then one day when it begins to boil over, she just let's it all out, completely dumping on me and taking me by surprise.

And here I thought things were good.

I'm just ranting now, probably not even making sense.

I feel like I can't trust anyone right now, especially the female.

I really wish someone would have knocked some sense into me, and talked me out of the idea of marriage before I got myself too deep into it.

It's turned out to be the biggest mistake of my life.

It hurts too.

Marriage sucks, and it especially sucks to watch someone you've been with for 12 years change so drastically and become so shallow, and selfish.

Excellent post.

Sounds great. Not saying this dude is not on top of his game but also realize he got lucky because maybe 5% of American women will respond to his management the other 95% will call the cable TV service for reconnection of her $150 per month Real Housewives special then bang the cable guy when he arrives at her front door.

The secret to success with women is you must be 60% dominant over them

I have time and time again tried to be equal in relationships and it doesnt work. As soon as you play the boss and act dominant over them they begin to respect you, its in them.

Soon as they smell weakness and bending over to them its finished ...bang bang nails in the coffin over.

Be the boss, in control and all is good

Doctor Enoch prescribes you fly to Bangkok and take two bar girls and call me in the morning.
