    I got married in 2004 and I have a photo of us with 7 couples who were our best friends at the time. Of the 8 couples in that photo, every single couple is divorced now. They all seemed to last 5 years before getting divorced, we lasted the longest at 9 years.

    My ex wife has 10 marriages in her immediate family (Mother, Father and Sisters) and every single marriage has ended in failure.

    So I don’t know where this 50% figure comes from, I can only assume it includes marriages from out parents generation when people didn’t get divorced. No fault divorce has made divorce so socially acceptable that most women get divorced because they are bored and fancy getting back on the carousel.

    To me it seems that marriage for women these days is a break from the carousel while they secure a house, children and a wallet for life.

    If a woman wants to marry you then she sees you as a wallet, seriously let some other sucker be her meal ticket.

    3 years after I split from my ex wife I am happy that it happened when I was 40. I dread to think what it would have been like to spend another miserable 10 years with her only to get divorced anyway and have no time to acquire a house and money before retirement.

    Marriage is like a bomb that can go off at any time and totally f~~~ the rest of your life. You are never safe from this infact the risk gets worse the longer you are married as you will have no time left.

    Seriously. don’t do it.

    For women, everything eventually boils down to Alpha Fucks, Beta Bucks.

    I think some marriages are more tolerable then others. From what I’ve seen, some women either don’t have the confidence to think they could land another resource or something of that nature. The marriage works to an extent in that the husband is allowed to be himself for the most part.

    The question really should be, are there any man who would be happier single then married? I think that number is very very small. There are certainly Dad’s who don’t want to raise their kids alone and like the security blanket of having a wife, but does the wife herself make her happier? Highly unlikely.

    Ok. Then do it.

    50% end in divorce, the other 50% end in misery.

    That 100% BAD! Only a fool would play those odds!

    I agree, to quote Paul Elam, “The ones that manage to stay married make a habit out of hating each other like the Arabs and Israelis.”

    If it costs you your peace of mind, then it is too expensive.

    It’s amazing that men continue to marry when 85 % of the remaining men in marriages are unhappy.

    Men didn’t really talk about it. You suffered in silence, maybe made jokes about it, and stuck it out because everyone else was doing it. It was what men did.

    Men also didn’t places like this to talk about it.

    Then the dominoes starting falling. No fault divorce nationwide, women’s lib turning into radical feminism turning into pure toxic man hating, every year bringing more gynocentric laws, the courts getting worse, more set asides, more preferences, more whining, more bulls~~~, more, more, more, more, and never enough.

    It took a couple of generations, but men began talking about it. The web helped too.

    I go to a lot of companies and work with a lot of people. I cannot remember the last time I heard a heterosexual man seriously say that marriage is a good idea or seriously congratulate another man for getting married. It’s been years since I heard any man sincerely congratulate another for getting married. Years.

    I was at a shipyard earlier this year. A young man was talking about his girlfriend, mother, sisters, and girlfriend’s mother all pressing him to marry. What advice did he get?

    TO A MAN every man working with him told not to do it. Married, divorced, single, young, not so young, it didn’t matter. Not one man said “man up” or “I’m glad I married”. Not one man. Not one day. Every day of the two weeks I was there it was the same serious advice. No joking, no ball busting, and no s~~~. Completely serious, eye to eye, and straight up. DO. NOT. MARRY.

    Every man there quoting facts, citing figures, and sharing personal experiences.

    DO. NOT. MARRY.

    Men are talking about it now. The tipping point is fast approaching. The number of unmarried young men in the US is at it’s highest point in over a century. Older men are getting out. The marriage rate isn’t dropping, it’s f~~~ing crashing. Priests and ministers who used to perform 25 -30 marriages a year are performing less than 5. Justices of the peace and city clerks are noticing the same drop. It’s over. Only c~~~s and f~~s get married these days.

    Men are talking. Men are advising. Men are warning. Men are walking away.

    It’s absolutely glorious.

    There is so much wisdom in this section. If I didn’t know better I swear OldmanBill is looking at my personal life. Every chance I get, I warn men about marriage. I tell them my experiences, friends’ experiences, and acquaintances’ experiences. `I’ve saved a handful of lives by telling them the truth. The younger generation are rejecting marriage more than my generation. They were the hostage children that saw the pitfalls of marriage. Until the laws change, marriage will continue to decline.

    If it costs you your peace of mind, then it is too expensive.

    . I think the government lies about it because if the number was over 50 % more men would come to their senses and not marry.

    the government of Canada stopped collecting statics on divorce a few years ago, not sure exactly what year.
    now, they only collect stats on marriage.

    As a Canadian MGTOW, I think your right about this. It could be so bad that they don’t want to talk about it. As they want to shove marriage down our throats, making it sound so nice and everything is coming up rainbows and sunshine.

    Us men didn't start the battle of the sexes, but we're clearly going to win it via the simple tactic of just leaving the battlefield in contempt."
