Exit Clause
Why so some people choose to cohabit or just date, instead of marrying?
Maybe perhaps the price is just too high to pay if they were to be married?
Well, research has shown that people in a marriage perform better at work compared to their single or unmarried counterparts.
I would agree that the vow gives a certain level of inner peace & security (... and perhaps self-confidence too) to do well at work. I felt that when I was married. To some extent I miss the security & the feeling of comfort.. that someone will always be there for you... for sure. Your very own cheerleader... your rock... someone who'll wish you well & accepts you for who you are...
If I had the chance to do it all over again, what changes would I make? In honest truth if I had known all these facts about marriage I would probably remain single for the rest of my life. There's a joke that's been circulating in social media: marriage is when a woman choose to give up the attention of many men to subject herself to the criticism of one man. Agreed. 200%.
HOWEVER, mum & my late dad had shown me what a wonderful marriage is like... that is what I would strive for the next time I take a hit, if ever it happens. If only there is an exit clause for marriages. If it doesn't work there's a button I could press to exit. No explanations required. Is that considered giving up? Maybe... but I wished that button HAD been there during my marriage with Mr Ex... because I overstayed far too long.
Perhaps what women need are courageous men... who makes the vow & sticks with you no matter what... because he promised... regardless of how many women seduces him, or are more beautiful @ attractive than the wife. The world WOULD be a better place if we had more men like that.
