RE: Shacking up-----vs marriage

Just to be devils advocate here, I think marriage really is just a piece of paper now days. It's a ticket for her to use when she decides to ditch the marriage for something more exciting and she gets a house he helped buy, a car he helped buy and he has to pay her money because she decided she wanted to run back out and play ho. I think perhaps it is a good idea for people to live together. If you are capable of an honest relationship then you don't need the marriage to make that stick, however if you aren't you do need it to screw the guy over when you leave. I think the basic problem is is that if you're not married, either one can say bye, and end it. with a marriage someone not only gets emotionally hosed, but financially as well.

RE: For the men

Well my last one I met online, didn't work out though. Before that I met a girl in a strip club (don't recommend this too much goes along with that pretty smile). Before that I was in college and met my ex at a party, so I guess I'm not really a good person to be chiming in here...
