What is the best and worst thing about marriage?
Anonymous 272627
>>272595Is anyone on cc even married? I can’t speak from experience, but I’m curious if anyone else has anything positive to say about marriage. There’s a lot of negativity about it online, but it could be due to the bias people have for outrageous content

The only "thing" about marriage is the promise that you'll be ok if it ends. Historically a wedding ring was a security deposit.
It's weird to me that men seethe so much about the very purpose of marriage. Many men want a woman to sacrifice her youth, health and career raising his progeny and then they get mad about the idea that they can't just dump her and leave her in the street.
It's OK not to marry but never compromise on your career for a guy unless he's willing to make a legal promise of financial support in return. Divorced men rarely end up with no money, no house, no career, no job experience, and several mouths to feed, but you don't want to stick with someone who doesn't understand the risks you're taking or outright sees financial commitment as an inconvenience or a scam.

Best? Having a partner who's always at your back and in your corner.
Worst? Over-familiarity. It's deeply frustrating to know someone's flaws on the level which you know your own.

what are the pros of marriage
if you're already rich af and financially stable yourself Anonymous 274738
>>272595Marriage made me happier, less-stressed, richer, higher status and more independent. It feels like my partner is hoisting me up on his shoulders. The problem is that you can never really know someone. At any moment some fatal flaw or hidden agenda could topple me from a great height, and take any children we have with me. It's terrifying, but the same kind of low-level fear I had towards oncoming cars on the freeway or low-flying planes. All up, it's a net-positive and worth it.

>>274738That is literally the opposite of independant.

>Best
Having someone to fix your car, water heater and dish washer

>>274748Why can't you do that yourself? Do you think women are incapable of repairing machines?

>>274691The same. Promising your partner financial security so that he can raise your children without worrying about going bankrupt if you have a change of heart.
If you're both rich then it's just a friendly gesture and a fun party.

>>272627I'm married. No kids thankfully.
Best: Splitting finances and housework.
Worst: Having someone constantly around to remind me that some of my interests and opinions that I'm particularly passionate about supposedly aren't very interesting.

Best: A best friend to do literally everything with. Sometimes my husband and I are having a conversation and we genuinely enjoy talking to each other so much that if I need to go to the bathroom, he will follow me to continue the conversation and vice versa. He also wakes up earlier than me for work, goes to starbucks and leaves a my favourite coffee on my bedside table before I even wake up. This happens at least once a week but sometimes more.
Worst: I miss when life was just about chilling with your friends and doing everything & nothing together. I didn't experience this THAT much, never had too many friends to begin with, but there were 1 or 2 that I spent a lot of time with just shooting the shit in our pjs quite often and this doesn't happen as much anymore.
