It sounds like there are a lot of bitter men out there who have a real problem with women and vice versa. Unfortunately, men and women seem to know exactly how to hurt each other in the most effective and lasting ways. The trust between the sexes is completely shattered. Men and women are supposed to be each others opposite, the yin and yang, and that harmony has been disrupted by all the infidelity and selfishness and lack of consideration for each other’s feelings. Marriage should be a union between two people who have seen each other for years, not months, not one year, but several years. People who know each other extremely well, have acknowledged each others flaws and have accepted them for who they are, warts and all, and have truly contemplated what it means to be with that one person for the rest of their lives. Getting married is not something to be taken lightly. You need to be in a place in your life where you know who you are, and have accomplished the things in life that you have always wanted to do or have, and are happy with yourself. It is a very serious commitment that should not be taken lightly. Woman can have children well into their 40′s these days, so there’s really no need to rush. The most important thing is to marry your friend. My dad, who has been married to my mom for 20+ uears and almost got divorced at one point, told me that the one thing that has kept them together is that they are friends. They like each other. When they think the love is lost or the spark is gone, they still have their friendship to fall back on, to hold them together in the hard times. If you don’t like the person you are with, if they can’t make you laugh and vice versa, then what will do you when it seems like everything is lost? You leave, because you don’t have that friendship that makes you see what you will miss if you don’t stick it out. Marriage is just too serious of a thing to be taken lightly. Maybe men have the right idea.
