I decided last night that I will never get married......ever.

Hey ya'll, it's me again.

So I've always battled the notion of getting married to another person, but I thought I was religiously obligated to do so. Luckily, that wasn't the case and it genuinely removed a huge mental burden off my back.

Now, what I will say is to reach the ultimate form of manhood is by getting married and having/raising kids. I will never ever disrespect any person who wishes to do so and I genuinely commend them for doing so in an increasingly selfish and narcissistic age that we live in.

Now, as to why I don't ever want to get married? It's quite simple:
  • I don't want to compromise myself for anyone else except for my parents when they reach old age.
  • Children are the apples of ny person's eyes. However, I don't see myself raising a child in this current world that we live in, especially one that has brap brap in it.
  • I feel more relaxed and comfortable knowing that I don't have to work hard financially for anyone else except for myself. Having a family is an expensive endeavour but fortunately, countries have pretty good child support programs.
This may make me look and sound completely and utterly selfish and immature, but I believe marriage for someone like me isn't a suitable choice to make. It's a controversial thing to claim, but I'm hoping to hear some diverse opinions on the matter and don't hold back!

I think the benefit people miss about marriage is being able to have a real life long friendship, no one wants to go through life and die alone.

But I get why most are hesitant about it because of the divorce rates and seeing more and more marriages not last.

I think in order to have a solid marriage and for it to work, you have to be willing to committee to personal development and you have to take your time in getting to really know who you are so you can pick the right partner that is qualified for marriage.

I can never be alone as long as Hideo games exist.

If you had said you wanted to have sex with lots of women, I could see that and skipping raising kids and boning the same woman over and over forever.

Currently I’m single, and that’s the best part. Hunting for new vagina to conquer.

Nah, I don't see women like that.

No offense, but "chasing after pussy" is the least masculine thing a man can do.

Chivalry tops all that animalistic BS propagated by today's sick society.

If you have hunt for it, your wasting your time and life. You might as well become a porn star or at least become a man that woman will pursue instead, that would be a better ROI on your time.

Oh yeah, I do that to. Have a date tonight the way you described and another tomorrow I met out in public.

I like the thrill of the chase and hitting home runs. To each their own.
 
I think it’s great you’ve come up with that conclusion and will try to stick to it. The last thing any woman needs is a man that will marry for the wrong reasons, have a child with her and then leave her because that situation is not what he wanted in the first place. I do think you should keep your mind open, as you age things change, the way you perceive the world changes and 10 years from now things might be different. Totally respect that stance, buuuuuuuuuut as someone with a husband and three kids, and as someone who thought would never have that, I’d say do you, but if you change your mind definitely don’t hold back. It’s worth it.

I left my own country to meet and marry my (now) wife. I'm 33 but if you asked me to do that back when I was 23...It probably wouldn't have happened. The ones who say they'll never get married usually do the opposite. Besides, who wouldn't want MHK...there's a female version of you out there and I don't think you'll turn her down. Just don't do some weird Mormon thing and marry 5 half sisters. Also, don't trust a woman into Ashikoki (basically Japanese foot fetish) - that was brap brap 's mistake.

Marriage is the ultimate and final stage of manhood, and I don't say that in jest.

I'm just making sure I don't feel any sort of unwarranted pressure to get married, especially in a time where Jim needs me.

Once I've finished my backlog of games, then I'll look for a female MHK ;)

Funny thing, you’re not wrong. Since getting married my DIY skills have dramatically improved - I got a +50 buff to power tool use. Ultimate manliness.

I don't think the guy has anything to say in this department.

Marriage is all about the chick and she will drop hints at some point and if you don't pick it up it will hit a boiling points and basically she will move on.

I remember the same thing with a mate of mine that didn't wanted kids. Chick wanted them at a certain age and guess what no longer together. She moved on.

Kids / marriage is all about the chick and the guy simple just walks behind them.

Is it marriage specifically, or long-term relationship in generell? If you've been happy with your spouse for a while, a nice party and some document shouldn't change that fact. I think the problem is that people either marry too soon (or for the wrong reasons) or seperate too easily. For me it was the right decision to marry because we both hate people but not each other. Worked for us so far. Anyway, you do what's best for you, OP!
