: shock:

@ALL Men - Marriage isn't worth the time or the hassle - period.

Sorry - it just isn't!!

Because the propensity is there for it fail - a long term partner probably represents the best solution.

There is no f**king way I would be paying some b**ch £250,000 every year for the rest of her life even if I could afford it - period - that's just f**kED UP!

Why is it that the Law over here decides that because a woman expected a life of luxury during a marriage she should be remunerated accordingly after a divorce.

When I was reading this article I thought I was flipping dreaming...

That's crazy!!

Even if this situation were to be reversed - ITS STILL SOOOO WRONG!

Boy - one of my bredrins says there is "their Law and his Law." this is one occasion where I'll have to agree with his philosphy - cause this just aint right...




Now I may have faith, to make mountains fall;
But If I lack love, then I am nothing at all...
I can give away everything I possess;
But if I\'m without love
Then I have no happiness...

Just like my friend said who had a daughter for another woman when his relationship was going through a rocky phase - these women know who they are breeding for!!

I would amend that to marriage based on western values isn't worth the hassle - watch out for babylon's daughters LOL

Anyone ever heard of a case in the UK where the man is on the other end of the deal - I heard this is quite regular in America.

Oh, these poor saps. That's why you need to get a prenup. That 'expectation of a higher standard of living' bit had me rolling. Damn, I didn't know we women could get it this good.

Aryek - apparently them prenups in the UK are not worth the papaer they're written on. A lawyer saida prenup in Paul Mcartney's divorce from Heather Mills would be useless. (Have a slight interest as she went to my secondary school)

Do you think these women would get married with a prenup - or even try harder to keep the marriage knowing there's no payout to gain if they divorced?

Oh yes babyg44....hmmm....maybe if there was truer equality in the workplace then the stats would be more balanced.....but then maybe if women had more to loose the amount of prenups would rise in proportion..

Its not the fault of the law.

Its down to individual responsibility. If you don't know the woman you're marrying thats your problem. You're an idiot and you deserve to get screwed.

Mans should show a little brain activity and think why some of these women want to marry you in the first place. Think about the character of the woman you about to marry.

But no. just cos she gave good head you're ready to wife her-- and you don't even know her.

Idiots.

@BP

Thing is Nowadays - Some ladies pretend to have old skool values - some pretend to that they've have a proper value system.

THEN YOU SCRATCH THE SURFACE...

and it's a completely different story - LOL!!

BTW - Sista's don't think I'm hatin' on ya'll - I know say some brothaman try the same tings on ya'll too...

But for real - the older I get the more my eyes are opening...

That mills and boon marriage shit aint real man...

The potential is always there for things to **** up - so its a risk...


Now I may have faith, to make mountains fall;
But If I lack love, then I am nothing at all...
I can give away everything I possess;
But if I\'m without love
Then I have no happiness...
