Exactly right. Marriage is simply agreeing to give your partner half your stuff whenever she decides to walk away for whatever reason she deems valid.
I’ll never do it again.
I get tired of all this “men lose everything” theme. I got divorced from a man who was violent and lazy. He “dropped” me and 2 small boys off in a state 900 miles from home with 2 suitcases and some change in my pocket (he even took my purse). He kept the house, bank account, tools of my employment, 2 vehicles, the boat and camper (all of which I had paid for.) I picked tomatoes for a whole summer to get enough money to return to my original home state to start over again. It took me 2 years to find the son of a gun in order to serve him divorce papers, as he had sold everything and moved in with whomever was his newest girlfriend at the time. The judge granted me nothing, except sole custody. Looking back, I got the best end of the deal.
OK, so I did win. The boys were worth it. Guess you’re right after all.
Yup,
But I’m Not bitter.
Only half? That’s a big joke try 99.9%.
