Tue Jun 30, 2009 5:31 PM CST : DO MEN STILL WANT TO GET MARRIED?

After some of the stuff I've seen written here by men regarding marriage, I think its a loud wake up call to all the women whose goal on this site is to hopefully find some man who might want to form a relationship leading to marriage. The reality seems to be that A LOT of men having been burnt from previous marriage/marriages are none too keen to go there again, so I guess its now down to longterm dating,intimate encounters,shacking up or being a penpal. Is that enough for the women on here? Many claim that singleville is the way to go, they've been there and done that and we are just too much trouble, too much nagging, not enough sex, not feminine enough,too overweight, the list goes on and on of the inferiorities. So with some saying they can't find anybody worthwhile in a sea of women and others saying screw marriage guess things have gotten a whole lot harder. Comments please.

The only problem I have had is they want to get married right when they meet you.

If a guy says he loves you right away or proposes right away, that's a red flag that he might turn abusive.

I want to get married again someday. I actually liked being married.

However, I don't have plans to tie the knot any time soon. I prefer to wait till my daughter is done with highschool. Meeting someone now would be cool though!

In the States at least many people seem to want perfection in a partner. Hard body, loads of good sex and an easy life.

I’m far from perfect. I even manage to take as certain amount of pride in that.

I occasionally look for company. The hell with perfection. No strange smells, reasonably sane and smarter than the average bear is good enough.

I doubt I’ll ever get married again though. I was surprised enough that I got hitched the first time. She was a rare woman and I doubt there are any others like her out there.

I'd prefer not to get married. I would like to spend my life with a special woman, but I can do without the ceremony and paying for some fancy ring that is supposed to confirm my love...

A good marriage is like negotiating an important deal. You have to consider all the factors, thoughtfully and thoroughly. If you were investing a large part of yourself and your fortune into a venture, believe me, you'd make sure you thought about it a long time first. That's how I see marriage. It's serious, and it's important. I'm quite cautious about marriage. You should be too.

I would give my eye teeth to find a good woman I could depend on, but since I have been married 3 times, and each one tried to kill me, (one even said all she wanted to leave was a "greasy spot" in the road) I just can't afford it anymore. If it had not been for deceitful women and their lawyers, I would be a wealthy man! The only good one I ever had, died on me! I've got so many callouses on my heart that there are no soft spots left! I just don't understand how one human being can treat another with that much cruelty!

I think you're underestimating the appeal of matrimony to men - even those surly, burnt-out-husks-of-maleness residing on CS - Taino. Men generally get married faster than women after divorce. They're more needy, and yet perhaps more likely to "protest too much" - that is, to proclaim their independence and despair and disillusionment per relationships. Don't let that fool you. It's likely merely a smokescreen...or a preamble to falling head over heels for the first woman who gives them a sampling of the affection and nurturing they so desperately crave.

I think you may be in for a world of hurt on that one, Brother. Never stand between a woman and a ring, my friend, unless you have some kind of double-indemnity health insurance...

I totally agree with that one!
