I know you weren’t taking a shot at me. 👍.
Getting married late in life presents a whole set of considerations that might not be applicable when you get married young. I know that for me if I were to lose my wife I wouldn’t remarry. I’d never do as good and I’m not willing to settle. My girl set the bar so high that nobody else could reach it.

"There is a bloody brave little animal in Africa called the honey badger. It may be the meanest animal in the world. It kills for malice and for sport, and it does not go for the jugular - it goes straight for the groin. It has a hell of a lot in common with the modern American woman."

Marriage is man made, in legal terms its a contract. Well you lose half or more as a man. Women are socially engineered and want a ring and paper. Don't believe me go to a wedding.

.gov and its laws killed marriage. Nope .... It is both our country's increasing godlessness that is killing marriage and society in general.

my daughter was 37 before she got married. Son was 48. I finally made it to grandfather status, the oldest is now 8 years old, the youngest only 3. That said, both of my kids had established themselves, were financially well off, and their careers were on track. Both have successful marriages and no financial worries.

Adelle (this is a musician for all you dinosaurs) was ordered to pay her unsuccessful husband $150 million dollars. The government fugking can go both ways when it comes to marriage.

I married up. After 26 years, I can highly recommend it. I can also say being a good spouse goes a long way toward having a good spouse. F'in A Cotton.....F'in A. Yup. I was 20, wife was 18 when we met. 20+ years later I can’t imagine life without her. The only reason you’re still married is because your wife has the patience of Job.

Guard your wallet.
One of my nephews called me up one day asking about what would happen to his business in a divorce. At that time they were planning a wedding 3 years out.
I told him to consult a lawyer.
And Mr Flave is right it does work both ways. I understand state law varies considerably when it comes to property.

Any wife throwing competitions around? When mine is good....she is amazing, but when she isn't, boy howdy she's rowdy.
I believe staying married through the rona BS really helps a relationship. Staying married to a 45 year old woman through this is rather taxing.....but the tax is lower than the alternative.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

Shacking up generally doesn't last past the first year. So...that's a bad idea if you want a life long partnership. Marriage works because the marriage comes first, taking individuals' petty nonsense out of the equation. It's not her vs him. It's what do we need to do to get this thing where it's goes best.
The real problem is the attractiveness of ditching the hairy snore machine for a marriage to the govt with the former stud as a child support slave.

One of the main discussion themes on the campfire is often about the incremental loss of freedoms, boiling the frog if you will. So the traditionalists are advocating or lamenting the loss of traditional marriage. A marriage you will agree, that needs to be validated by purchasing a license from a government entity. Which, once the document is recorded, requires that the male signatory abide by a whole new definition of property rights. That ain't freedom.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

.gov and its laws killed marriage.
On purpose? and for money. Its for the lowyers.
