But, I see a lot of bad marriages out there and making laws to force people to stay together aggrivates me...
“Didn’t say there weren’t scumbag men. OTOH, my dad didn’t get a new model. In fact, he’s been divorced from my mother for 18 years and has never remarried. Never really tried, in fact.”
I am filing for divorce in the next few days. She has a good heart but became too broken to ever fix from abuse in her early years. After 11 years of trying I am packing it in and I am very depressed about it.
I will always stay in her life as a friend and will support her in any and every way - except co-habiting the same household. That said, I will never remarry. Finding a decent life-long spouse in this society seems like it is near impossible. And I don’t have time to explore dozens of relationships to see if one could ‘work out’.
