OP, are you considering tying the knot because you have gotten too lazy to chase pussy out in the wild? You know, it’s just there in your bed every night ripe for the taking. Hell, you even will have consent. In fact, I think you have a right to it when you are legally married!
But think about it. After a while you will get fat. You will knock her up. 9 times out of 10, if you do not mandate a strict exercise regiment on her the she will never get her pre-baby bod back (I was lucky. Mine did).
My advice to all men considering marriage is this:
1. Stay in shape physically (You want to be able to date again immediately if the need arises);
2. Squirrel away your money and keep it hidden from her. If you do it right you will not need a prenup.
3. Women have the ability to turn their love on and off like a light switch. One morning she calls you “honey”, the next she is calling you “defendant”. You need to adopt the ability.
4. Stay aloof. Never allow her to feel in control except when it serves YOU and YOUR interests.
5. Notwithstanding love, you always need to remember that she will fillet your soul when things go bad. Thus, you always need to hold back some of yourself and view her as a potential adversary. I am just being realistic.
Dude, never marry because you are too lazy to wrangle pussy. And don’t do it for “love”. There is no such thing as love except for familial love. You may be that level with her some day, or not. But right now it is lust and attention. That’s it.
She may tell you that she loves you. But who cares? What is important to you is how YOU feel. Her siren songs are intended to benefit her, not you. Don’t fall for it!
