Don´t marry!

Embedded image from another site




1891 advice on how and why (not) to marry, the best thing since Darwin’s list of the pros and cons of marriage.

For a positive counterpoint, see Anna Dostoyevsky on the secret to a happy marriage and Virginia Woolf on what makes relationships last.

Don't mitten a mechanic? confused

This is all solid gold advice, by the way. Except that interpreting 'don't marry a man too poor' and 'don't spurn a man for poverty' are a little puzzling.
I actually agree with that. Keep the priest's baccy stained fingers out of your union.
Doc I predict you will one day meet a woman so utterly right for you that you will want to offer a lifetime contract, and she will want to accept it.

Hope so for your sake! You still don't need to actually get married, but realizing suddenly why people do, is a great moment.

Beats hell out of the 'let's play it by ear, see how long this thing actually lasts' feelings laugh
Biff i do believe in a lifelong commitment to one person (preferably Emma Stone), but I don't think a guy in a dress needs to be involved in proceedings.
Free, I got hung up on the Dude one too. What was a dude back then? A cowboy?
Senior Sun god,

Why are your posts so enigmatic? Are they perhaps a litmus test of sorts?
