Exactly. They need to quit acting like a bunch of victims. It takes two to end a marriage.

Marriages last because both partners are investing in it. If one stops investing in a marriage the other reacts to that and a marriage collapses. I’m no marriage expert but my husband invests in our marriage all the time. And when he invests in our marriage I invest right back. And it keeps us both in love with each other, faithful, and best of friends.

No it doesn't---it only takes one. If your husband decided tomorrow he no longer wanted to be married to you, there's not a damn thing you can do about it. It took me about a year and a half to figure out that you cannot push rope, no matter how hard you try.

Does your pollyana fantasy life always get in the way of recognizing the obvious like this?

This is an absolute factual error, and you're going to come up with some arcane tidbit to justify it instead of admtting it's just plain wrong.

Nope. It takes one to end a marriage. It takes two to keep a marriage together.

Sure it does. So what? That's not the point of the article. The point is that the laws are heavily weighted against the man when the two DO end the marriage.

That time bomb just waiting out there makes it insanity for a young male to get married today. All the platitudes about marriage in the world won't change that fact.

In a state with no-fault divorce, that's just not true.

Wrong. One is quite able to do it alone.
