The problem with the Rollo's in this world (Not that HE is a problem), is the fact that marriages like his are becoming more of the exception than the norm. And don't we state here that the exception is what proves that the rule exists in the first place? I've dated women who point blank told...

I've gotten by far a better quality of woman through Match.com than through PoF or OKC. In fact, I've had none through OKC. Match.com seemed to yield much, much better results for me. POF was just a breeding ground for flakes and women out of their league or fade-outs. I just can't...

Yep, you're absolutely right about the first half... They want to "get" married. They don't want to "be" married. They definitely want to have kids and then they want the child support and their husband's testicles along with the check.

This sentence, out of context, could be interpreted in so many ways. You are right, it is ENORMOUS effort, but it can be related to a sunk cost for most women. It's just not worth the effort at some point. It's probably why in the last year or two, I've bought much more into the idea of...

Here is my problem: I would love to engage in an LTR without marriage, but the possibility of participating in one is slim. The one thing I noticed here in the US is that the bait-and-switch is alive and well. I was with a woman (not from the US) who wanted to eff my brains out every week. I...

Preach on, brother, preach on. This is why the cycle has me so bitter. But I also realize time is on my side and not theirs.

You think Madonna is what started it? You need to go back further.

Pity women? I pity myself for having to put up with what goes in this country for "women".

I've had the ego gratification replaced with "Meh, next." shortly after.

Can I just post links here? Because seriously... Between The Rational Male... So Suave... Dead Bedrooms... No More Mr Nice Guy... White Knighting... I think the OP has research for WEEKS. Jesus. Go talk to a lawyer ASAP. Stop talking to your "wife".

I see "squirrels syndrome" is running rampant through the forums lately. I've come to the realization over the years that women can help me feel happier, but once things start getting serious, the drama seems to overlap and overtake whatever "added happiness" they added to my life. What...

"Oh, sure you can... actually, I'm gonna go get a copy of that book myself, I have a "friend" of mine that I would love to try that out with. You don't mind, right?" There's no way I would have engaged this. At 1.5 months? Yeah, she's gone.

The clock is ticking. Go read all the numerous threads about how single moms are awesome until they hit the threshold of expecting you to become the "new dad". All of a sudden the sex dies down, the scolding flares up, and the awesomeness fades. As much as I agree with you on the "wear and...

She scheduled a meeting for tomorrow so that I could sit down with her and another person within our department. She highlighted five points that she wants me to work on and talk about in this meeting. One of them was "Why are you working overtime, but 100% of things aren't getting done?"...

I'd rather try to date a prostitute than a barmaid or waitress. Let that one sink in. And this is coming from a former bartender.

I really go on an angry rant, but after having come back from the gym, I need to. You see, less than 2 months ago, I was hired to a new company to turn around half of their Accounting Department. Apparently the turnover was ridiculous, the hiring process is horrid, and the work is...

I've always rented because I've always moved from place to place. I like the flexibility. I've never lived in an area longer than 3 years, so buying makes no sense for me. Eventually, it'll happen... maybe in my 40's. But I couldn't care less what women think about me renting versus me...

The reality that not all adults are responsible (Yes, including men - maybe SPECIALLY men) and act like adults. I saw being an adult as something infallible. They never seemed to make mistakes, full of discipline, and always seemed to know the right thing to say. Now I just see adults as a...

Just "good enough" women.

How about you go find someone new that you don't have all these issues with? It's probably way more easier than dealing with all of this. You are only missing your ex because you have no other options.
