No need to feel sorry for me because in the end I'll guarantee that I'll be happier in the end. I think people are foolish if they don't look at marriage as a contract. It absolutely is.... And you're only kidding yourself by saying that it isn't. I don't love my job, but I'll always love my bank account more than anyone. A perfect example. A friend of mine got married over the summer. I know for a fact that he had $180,000 in the bank. 8 months later his bitch sucked him dry and he has less than a grand. And when they get a divorce, and trust me they will, she'll walk away with all of the shit that he bought with
HIS $180,000. Plus, she'll get alimony, and child support if he has a child with her. He's miserable now that he's broke, and it's all his wife's fault. He's in a life-long contract that if he decides to get out of it, it'll cost him even more than if he'd just stay and be miserable. It's a no win situation. One which I'll never be part of. Almost 60% of marriages end in divorce..... That leaves you with about 40% that actually stick it out. Out of that 40% I'll bet my ass that 20% are unhappy. Basically you have a 20% chance of being in a happy marriage. Not good odds at all. It's not a game I'm willing to play.
