To find a lifetime "partner," to have children and to lead a COMPLETE/fulfilling life. What else is there??

If he had any real intelligence he wouldn't want to get married. There is no benefit to getting married if you are a self sufficient man. The concept of "love" gets old real quick. The way I see it is women put extreme pressure on a man to get married because once they are married they know they are set. Once kids are born, they have guaranteed money....Child support, alimony, they keep the house etc in a divorce. The only person who will lose in a marriage is the man.

Damn girl, don't you get tired of being wrong all of the time?

Those are all subjective viewpoints. How does not getting married prohibit all of the above?
Marriage is nothing more than a legal agreement

Marriage is nothing more than legal consent/permission from the state.

Huh??? Without a true emotional committment and a legal "partnership," none of that works for very long and it has little value. Having kids outside of marriage is a disaster (which the black community should be well aware of). If you wanna run around and be a footloose, uncommitted man-whore, fine. Just please don't burden society with any kids.

Huh???

GTFO of this thread TROLL. This here a grown man discussion, not "The View".

Fuckin bitch.

Either that or an extreme bitch ass nigga.

 

[The Pope]

I dont really know where I stand on the issue. There's a part of me that would like to experience being married but then again being married is like being in a life-time loan. Kids, mortages, her bills, your bills,college education it'll never end. A friend of mine got married because he got the chic married and he didnt want his son to grow up with out a father like he did but he's not happy but he's sticking with it.

Grown men support themselves. If in the even you need help, that's what family and friends are for.

The worst business decision any intelligent and independently well off man can make is to get married.

Again, I ask, what does marriage have to to with emotional commitment? Having kids outside of commitment is disastrous, not outside of marriage. It's not about being a man-whore, it's about protecting your future interest by not tying yourself to legal obligations. I am all for pairing, commitment, life time partnership, etc, etc.,

Im an American; I always want more, and in typical American fashion I dont want to have to work for that extra money.

Family and friends are mostly leeches. A chick thats in the same house is bringing in money directly to the house.

to get married to someone who has nothing and has nothing going for them i agree.

you don't marry pussy
you marry a woman

Well hey, you got problems homey, you won't get any where in life without working harder and smarter.

So it's impossible to have a complete/fulfilling life without marriage?

You must be a little kid or a loser. Real grown men can support themselves. Getting married so that you can get a bigger house in a better neighborhood is absolutely retarded. The minute shit doesn't work out and a divorce happens, your clown ass will be moving back with your mother.

Once again I reiterate......there is no logical reason for any sane man to get married ( unless he's disabled, or over 60yrs old and is looking for someone to spend his last years with.)

On the contrary dear comrade, I think my thinking is the way of the world.

Why give my life in an office to make the same amount of money I can make doing half of the work with a working wife?

whats working harder going to get you in the end though? you plan to be 60+ still single trying to holla at bitches and doing your own laundry?

Have fun working yourself to death, while smarter men work less for the same results.

At least YOU will feel better about working your ass off for the same thing you could have got for less effort.

I have no desire to continue talking to you. You are a fucking moron. No wonder this board is going to shit. There's nothing here but stupid little kid niggas who talk a lot of shit, but don't know anything at all.

A 60 year old can have a companion without getting married. You can't come up with ANY scenario where a man HAS to get married... in the United States that is.

dude women are making more than men today so she would have as much o lose if they divorce so why not? Married couple get tax breaks and having a second income coming in will make your life alot easier

Quit working harder than you have to man....."WE'S FREE NOW!!!"

Not in Cali...

so she would have as much o lose if they divorce so why not?

This is the talk of a nigga raised in a single bitch home. I hope you are a female...

Married couple get tax breaks and having a second income coming in will make your life alot easier

Fact: The cost of marriage is greater than the total amount of tax breaks that couple receives while married.

 

[HALO2]

You have to make the right choice.

Maybe women are making more than YOU, but I haven't met many who make more than me...and I'm not one of bgol's 7 fig nig peeps. Anyway if children are in the equation, the women keep the children and the house. Child support has to be paid to the custodial parent which 95% of the time will be the mother. Like I said before, there is no reason for a sane man to get married.

Yes I know you are campaigning for marriage since you are hoping some sucker nigga will marry your ass. Anyway, I'm not speaking to the women of the board, I'm talking to the men.
