Is Marriage a Selfish Tradition?

[BDParticipant 1146]

Hello Gentleman,

Somehow growing up I always hated weddings, I never wanted one and I avoided attending them if at all possible.

I totally understand the business contract part of it, and I refuse to participate because I won’t trust my assets to any woman.

The last wedding I regrettably went to was extravagant, on the ocean, high end etc etc… People came from all over the world to attend this thing…

And those memorably words, “Speak now or forever hold your peace” made me puke in my mouth.

I would estimate that the wedding, gifts and travel expenses of everyone would have been between 150 to 250K, maybe more…

My friend who was getting married was the super mangina, totally brainwashed into a life of servitude with a smile. She had a confirmed affair on him 5 years later, I thought something was amiss and that she cheated on him 1 year after the wedding but they both quickly dismissed me, and I was removed by her from his friend circle,  I still think I was right.

Now they are divorced.

Point is, do they apologize to their friends and relatives? Do they return the wedding gifts? What is the point in all of this?

How selfish do you have to be to inconvenience all of your friends and relatives, who only get so many days off a year, to attend your wedding, and only to get divorced because she was a whore.

Because in order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.

Marriage, especially ones involving weddings, is an outdated social ritual that people forcibly apply because they naively believe it will bring relevance to their lives. Some see it as the only way mass amounts of people will ever pay attention to them, as opposed to them actually doing something intellectually stimulating to influence the world. Weddings are a sign of a consumerist culture: the bride and groom are hungry for attention, material things, and validation for their life choices. The feeling I get at weddings is now the same feeling I get when I go to a funeral.

I have discovered a truly remarkable list of reasons why women are not necessary for a happy life, but alas this margin is too small to contain it.

Same here.

Exactly. Ever noticed in Wedding Photos the groom has this happy/stunned type smile on his face and the bride has a more sinister, pleased with herself look? I have noticed it is very common.

Man, are you arguing he should stay with a cheating whore for the sake of inconvenience to others? He actually believed the promises made by the tramp in privacy mostly communicated through her eyes as her mouth was stuffed with his dick.

Temporarily, the universe contrives neural tissue, by-passing millions of years of evolution, creating a pathway between dick and the ‘heart’. So when the dick is sucked, the heart says ‘Yes, I do’. Blue-pill allows the affects of this neural pathway to prolong and accumulate with successive sessions well past the immediate-stage of lubricated friction. The allure is usually over once the sessions cease- temporarily at first but soon becoming infrequent. However, the neural pathway has by then re-routed (hijacked) by the female (this time overcoming  universal forces) to directly correspond to her validation and moods as husband’s now perceived self-worth. The illusion finally breaks once she takes another c~~~ in her mouth. Two universes can’t exist in finite 3-dimensional space. Only a threesome would allow the creation of 4-dimensional space that involves hubby and her boy toy. But there are issues with uniting these two spaces due to fundamental flaws in the husband’s egosphere. Since no one gives a f~~~ about him, my research didn’t give a f~~~ either.

I am thinking of sending that as an abstract to British Journal of Medicine. They will reject it for the lack of scientific evidence. I will cry feminism.  Or should I cry patriarchy instead? The latter works for women.

I was usher at my cousin’s outdoor wedding ten years ago ..still suffering ptsd.

My theory is: What child you know dreams of marriage? Seriously though, it isn’t until we grow when we start being fed this marriage traditional nonsense.

I tried explaining the concept of marriage to my 11 year old nephew and you wanna know what he says to me when I’m done explaining?

That’s dumb, wanna play the game?

 

[Zuberi TauParticipant 10606]

Yes, a selfish tradition for spoiled, dogmatic trollops who deserve nothing.

[HitmanParticipant]

no man wants, dreams , or thinks about marriage. women manipulate men with sex so they agree to marry. a real suckers game. beware the she-devils !

[Puffin StuffParticipant 24979]

The marriage ceremony is the celebration of a woman gaining a manslave. That’s why he has to provide to her a dowry. This dowry is usually tied to his income. It is three times the amount of money the groom makes in one month. Invariably the dowry consists of something small enough but with enough value to be carried on your person because the way the dowry is presented is essential to achieve the goal of having her accept your servitude.

The bride to be then shows off this expensive precious stone to prove to her friends and family she landed a big fish.

Women can tell the value of a diamond ring at 100 paces.

Is marriage of selfish tradition, ha ha ha ha.

There was a recent credible study, which proved there is an inverse ratio between the cost of wedding and longevity of marriage.  They say once a marriage is over $20k, the divorce rates skyrocket.  Which makes sense, if a woman has a $60k wedding she has a ridiculous level of expectations.  If a woman is willing to get a cheapo $5k wedding, she is much more likely to be well grounded – or at least she will last longer before devolving into a bloodsucker.

And yes, the one expensive wedding I attended, at a ridiculous cost of $33k, ended in flames only 7 years later – with of course the wife being found in bed with another man.

Given the option, it would make more sense to spend $33k on Lottery.

Sovereignty above all else.

I totally agree with this.  Around 2002, all of my friends started getting married and you could see it was just becoming a p~~~ing contest as to who could show off the most by spending the most money.  The wedding, and the preparations and planning were built up to such a high level that you knew once it was over there would be nothing else for the couple to talk about.  Once nobody gave a s~~~ about her bridezilla party and she was no longer the center of attention she realised that there was actually nothing interesting about their relationship at all.

The ultimate irony is that most of the people at your wedding did not want to come, they are only there because they feel they had to go out of loyalty and couldn’t get out of it.  Weddings are the most boring thing on the planet and the actually cost to anyone going is huge.  By the time you add up the present, clothes, drinks and hotel room it is an incredibly expensive day for all of your guests.

Nearly all of the couples who came to my wedding are now divorced, and the ones that spent the most money were the ones that got divorced the quickest.  Of the few remaining married couples, I think only one of them is happy and they do not have children.  The others are mere empty shells of the men they used to be, and live a life of going to a job they hate to look after their screaming kids and fat wives.  I know one of them spends most of his evenings playing games on his computer, drinking as he just doesn’t want to spend any time with her.

The ones I have met up with since I have become divorced and started doing my own thing have told me in private how jealous of me they are.  I must admit, I do take great delight in showing them pictures of the latest piece of ass I am hitting.

I look back to the total waste of money my wedding was and realise that I did not want a single part of it, I just went along with it for an easy life. unfortunately taking what you think is the easy way out will come to bite you on the ass eventually.

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

Always thought these sounded similar:              dah dah dit dah

The only reason to go to a wedding is an open bar.

Hey iLearn, absolutely not, I support that he left her,

Maybe I should have worded it differently, I was referring to how much time and money everyone else put into this wedding, and how she disrespected all of them by having an affair and causing a divorce. People travelled from all over the world, and they only have so much time off a year, and they gave a considerable amount in gifts, only for her to be a whore and ruin it all. It appeared very selfish to me.

Great posts everyone, I’m always amazed to see so many intelligent comments. I’m learning a lot from all of you, just wanted to say thank you!

But women are selfish, it is all “Me!, Me!, Me!”.  When she wanted to get married it was all about her, and when she was bored of being married and wanted to ride the c~~~ carousel again that was all about her too.

When my wife cheated on me and we split up she could not care less about how this was going to effect me or the children.  All she cared about was her exciting new life, going to the gym and how much money I was going to give her.   Fast forward 18 months and she realises that she is still unhappy and she starts messaging me saying how unhappy she is and what a mistake she made.  Obviously in her mind none of this is her fault as she has convinced herself it was all my fault that she cheated as she was unhappy as I apparently took her for granted.  She has still not come to the conclusion that the only person who can make you happy is yourself, not other people.

Experienced:

Act III of Wagner’s opera Lohengrin begins with a stirring orchestral prelude and then leads into that piece.  It is a wedding scene, but things don’t quite turn out the way the couple had planned….

“Is marriage a selfish tradition?”

I think so. I mean, marriage was created so women could be monopolized for baby-making/raising by one man, and (possibly more telling) so that men and everything they build/earn/have can be monopolized by said woman and their brood. But then…I’m very cynical. I’d argue the vast majority of behaviors/actions we label as “good” in as a society are only “good” because they are of a benefit for others.
