    Great topic Mark. Not only do you not have anything in common with her family or friends, those same people have no interest in having anything in common with us. As long as the wife is providing for them, they will not extend themselves at all to try and converse. I stopped trying to, im tired of others coming into my house and not having the decency to at least give me a greeting. It happens every time. Where ever I out, i always acknowledge the people around me. I guess this issue is cultural I’m told? I hate it

      The issue might be that either you met the wrong woman/family, or you didn't spend enough time with them. I have found that Filipinos are not only friendly and warm, but also shy. You need to spend time with them and then slowly both sides get to know each other and feel more comfortable.

    58, was married 15 years to a woman who never worked, and I made her dream of becoming an RN come true by putting her through nursing school. She met a doctor… left me three days after she got her RN degree, and took me to the cleaners in divorce courts. that was 14 years ago. I am now financially comfortable after a lot of hard work and I will never never never never never get married again. I date, but I am honest that marriage is off the table …as well as cohabitation. Life is good.

    I'm 75. I've been divorced for 20 years. My ex walked out and left me to raise the kids. They're grown now and living their own lives. I sold my business and retired to France 7 years ago. I participate in many social activities here like hiking, wine tastings, food fairs, museum tours, expat dinner parties at different restaurants, and I meet friends for drinks at sports bars to watch soccer or rugby. I play golf, go sailing, and travel around Europe. I'm very content living alone; it's quiet, peaceful, and I can do whatever I want, when I want to do it. Life without a woman is heaven; no honey-do lists, no drama, no crazy mood swings, and no spending sprees on worthless crap like 200 pair of shoes.

    The NO-FAULT divorce law in the U.S is the problem. If there is PROVEN domestic violence, alcohol and/or drug addiction, infidelity, unwillingness to work, etc. I can see a cause for a divorce. All it takes is for a woman to say that she in no longer happy and no matter how good a man is, she can file for divorce. The man will lose everything if he was the breadwinner (working two jobs and busting hiss ass off for his family), and she will walk off with hundreds of thousands of dollars and live the high life, meanwhile the man will have to start from scratch at 50 years old. The courts don't care if the man ends up homeless or dead. NEVER AGAIN!!!

      Investing can be a powerful tool for building wealth and securing financial stability especially in this hard time. but it’s important to understand that it’s not without its challenges. The investment landscape is inherently volatile, with periods of both gains and losses. This variability is a natural part of investing and requires a clear strategy and patience to navigate effectively.

It's far easier with some pets, some friends, and doing things I like to do when I want, without restrictions. Don't really want to lose half of my stuff ever again and starting over again. Already did that twice. No need to try it again.

      Women who don't need a man ?
      I can just see gangs of women building and mending roads, fixing the electrical grid,creating airports, cleaning out sewers and collecting garbage. Plus erecting houses and
      apartments ? The whole infrastructure of the entitled privileged woman has been built and maintained by MEN.
      Also any woman using the following is using something created or invented by a man - electricity, fridge freezer, toilet, bike,car, bus, tram, train, plane, camera, internet, pc, laptop, cell phone, radio, tv, lift/elevator, zip, photography, DNA and many medical advances to name but a few.
      So the modern entitled and misandrist woman maybe should realise she owes much to men and be a little more respectful of their contribution to society and her own privileged and pampered life ?
      If she refused to use anything invented by men she'd be squatting in a darkened cave without even a candle.
      In fact I cannot think of a SINGLE invention by a woman that has benefitted mankind in general.

    Dog: Love, loyalty, peace, happiness & fun.
    A few beers with my pals: Fun and relaxation.

Her kids were out of control where she screams at them and sometimes at me from morning till bedtime. I suddenly realized that Im not ready to start a ready made family with undisciplined and uncontrollable children. Six days, upon my return I sent her a message explaining my breaking up with her abd blocking the family on social media and my phone. Ill just spend my time travelling on my travel trailer exploring national parks and perhaps my goal to take a road trip to Alaska can take place finally. Im happy alone with my pooch and doing my favorite hobby fishing. Good luck to those men seeking relationships. Ill stay single for now until then. Thanks again Mark for a great video and forum.

    Stay single and live longer, why because there is no marriage stress, no drama , no responsibility for others , no extra bills, control your time, do and enjoy what you want to do , have peace, socialize with your best friends, and have complete freedom and be financially independent

      @@stevemorris3544 Someone pointed out that divorced men are grouped with the always single men and that's why you get a distorted picture as many divorced men have been subjected to life shortening stresses, if only the always single guys were studied it may be they are the longest lived group.

    A close personal friend of mine took up with this woman after his wife passed away from cancer. He was ready to marry her and fortunately I was able to talk him out of it. He lived with her for 8 years. It finally ended and he gave her 13k upon her packing up her shit and moving out of his beautiful house on 15 acres. I told him had I known he was going to give her 13k I would have drove down there and chained him to a tree until he regained his sense. Told me he was so happy to get her out of his house he didn't care a bit about the money. To this day he is still telling me horror stories about those 8 years and always says he wish he could have those 8 years of his life back.
    She and her family basically took over his house and were there all the time. She did not want to do anything because she always had all these family obligations. Once he was hospitalized and upon returning home, he had to go live in his camper in order to get some rest and peace and quiet.

    I am not single, but I will never get married. Getting married is paying new price for a used car, giving away a huge claim on your assets. Every woman I have ever met has a larger list of past notches (often giving away very easily compared to how hard I had to chase it) than I considered worthwhile.

    The problem is, older women are bagging out, have lost their appeal, and mainly want older men for financial security. Young women have appeal but want men mainly for their dough.

    Undemanding peace and quiet, following my goals without detours, drama and exceptions. Women take from time and finances and contribute nothing. Until that formula changes, they're going to be seeing less and less men stepping up to save their burdensome bottoms.

    As a younger guy I’m jealous of all you old men you guys had the largest percentage of good women. Ever since social media came for us younger dudes it’s been over since the 2010s. Theres no such thing as real “love” in this day and age it’s all financial and if the woman feels she can cash out on you she will divorce you in the USA. This is why men go overseas to Asia and South America and just deal with a variety of women and just find a woman to settle down with and not get the government marriage contract involved.
