No. Terrible.

Been there, done that. But I likely will again.

More than anything else.

Nope.

I want to be married pretty bad tbh

We're planning on it.

I don't think it's the right thing to do.

-It's better to be open and have many gfs.
-It's not realist, it's going to break.
-It's more fun.
-More persons more fun.
-Stronger Group.

I'm sure there is more.

Hell no. Just another opportunity for a woman to ruin your life with the eventual divorce.

Yes, but it'll never happen.

I'm happy being single.

Just kidding my life is a swirling nightmare of regret.

Not particularly. I'm all for a long term relationship, but I don't anticipate marriage being something I'm that interested in.

I'd do it but it has to be the right person. Almost made a horrible mistake once but with the right person, it could be good. Now odds of finding that special little lady? Not good.

I've been married for 12 years.

You're seriously going to propose to me on CE? And what kind of wording is that? "Do you desire to be married?"

I'm sorry but this is not going to work out

it would be nice, but meh

I already am

And no

I want a forever, and I want the opportunity for my family to celebrate that.

So sure.

no its a prison

Yes. I wanted nothing more than to marry my wife and share a quiet life together. I was sickeningly romantic and just head-over-heels for her. I'd had reservations about it in the past (primarily for financial reasons), but she insisted. I was excited. I loved to say "my wife" whenever I got the chance. She was the light of my life.

Three months after a small, private ceremony she completely flipped. Said "this isn't working" after the fourth or fifth time she'd overdrafted her bank account and I called her out on it. She slept with half a dozen people in the following week and engaged in a number of activities that would be against the TOS to discuss. When I made moves to move out and on with my life, she told me she still loved me and wished we could be together. She was with someone new a few days later.

So... I did want to be married. If I could somehow still be married to that sweet girl, I'd be happy. I wanted to grow old with her. Whenever I thought of the future, it was with her.

Now though? I don't know if I'll even date anyone let alone ever get married again. That's not "I'll never love anyone like her" or "No one will love me." I will never trust anyone like that again. I've learned my lesson. I hate what it's done to me though. It's made me cynical. It's made me resentful. I'm in therapy to not be this way, but it's going to take years. I'm not old, but I'm not a spring chicken. I'm gonna be uncomfortably close to 40 by the time I'm anything even resembling okay. I'm not going to put anyone else through dealing with me while I heal and I won't have the energy to do all of this dating shit by the time I'm done.

So, yeah. Fuck marriage. My life has gotten infinitely harder and more complicated because I trusted the wrong person.

Honestly at this point.. no.

I think Id be more up for it if things in my life had played out differently, but I think I kinda missed the window on that. Im in my mid-30s, never had a successful relationship, dont even make $40,000 a year, and Im not attractive enough to get away with that.

Realistically I cant imagine a woman having the patience to deal with someone like me so, it is what it is

It changed more than you realize. Imagine losing it all.

I dodged that bullet once. No thanks.

Yes, but I doubt I will be.

Not really.
