The death of marriage

That 100%. I'm sick of paying half of my wage just for the right to sleep and have a shower.

One thing I realized is how much the economy is connected to everything else.
What happens if you let people enrich themselves too much? What they do with it? Do start working less? Do they invest and stop working altogether? Do they blow it all out on drugs? Or start some criminal endeavors?
Ideally they want you to use your money to consume and invest in your family. Not invest in you not having to work ever again. Which is what A LOT of people dream of doing. Because they're demoralized.
Thus, they cannot be allowed to enrich themselves too much. But now they can't even afford a family. Hell a lot of men can't even afford to date kek.

>think a bigger issue is not being able to afford a home

You are right, sir. I think not being able to afford to marry and start a family is a very big reason people do not get married, even though they would want to.

not worthing it

Hey annon , I own a home and i still dont want to have a family , so you know.

>>i ask her out
3 dates and then you need to ask her to marry you, you do know that?

We should really finish up making that male birth control so women can stop getting poisoned by theirs. They're too weak to handle it.

>Money
Weddings are expensive as fuck, and you really don't need a ring to show comitment.

we don't need marriage anymore.

Because hook ups and short term relationships trains women to always be feeling seeking and not loyalty seeking.

As soon as they feel meh about a relationship, theyll just break it off. No fault divorve and people waiting forever for kids doesnt help.

part 2

PRAISE THE SUN YO!

Because women have mutated from being generally unpleasant to be around to being an absolutel cunt ache to be around. Divorce rates are also 70% and what self respecting man wants to give half his shit away to some dumb 2hole

>>qt is excited and we exchange numbers
>>we schedule a date for saturday night
As said above, have 3 proper dates over tea, or bicycling and maybe some dancing... and then you need to ask the question. Make it perfectly clear to her early on, that you are a traditional guy and are only interested in a traditional union between a man and a woman.

Also, a woman who asks a man out is not marriage material.

money.
the same work pays considerably less today than in the past. People cant afford families

My fucking grandpa asked my gradma out on the first date, she said no but then said yeah on the second.

I can't speak for Germany, but in the US it's because marriage is no longer necessary. Women don't need a man to provide for them - they have the state. Men don't need a wife for sex - they have tinder sluts for that.
Laws and statutes have nullified marriage as anything more than an asset-management system for when the marriage ends.
There really isn't any benefit to getting married unless you're a gold-digger.

Being German, shouldn't you be off praying for Ramadan or something?

part 3

Not really, unlike the UK, Islam is not mandatory (yet) around here.

>>she goes to work
>>its actually too good
At this point I was expecting it turns out she is a trans "woman"... your fiction shouldn't tease the reader so.

In the US women are encouraged to fuck over their husbands hence the ~50% divorce rate. It's been this way for decades, steadily getting worse, and most boys grow up coming from a broken home and/or seeing friends and loved ones in the same situation. The result you can see: women and banks are desperately advertising marriage on Jow Forums, journalists are kvetching, and men are hesitant to get married because odds are it's not worth it. Nobody in their right mind would bet the quality of the rest of their life on a heavy coin toss.

>you have better odds winning the lottery than staying married these days

Human beings have been having kids for thousands of generations, most of which were dirt poor, and we can't be expected to do the same today because of boomers? Come on

We're not just poor now, we're indebted to the trillions. This is unprecedented.

You are defending your own enslvement

Thousands of years ago judges weren't slapping fathers with restraining orders, supervised visitation, and alimony.

This guy gets it money has become worthless
add into that things don't cost more because of inflation but rather because of corporate greed and your fucked
back in the day kids didn't cost $300,000 to raise to 18 and those dirt poor people where primarily subsistence farming

unsupported by the data on actually poor people

i don't see why the government should be involved in this

so you basically got with a girl who had you as a second choice?

her fwb situation with Chad obviously ended and she was looking for a new sucker

part 4

>i answer the phone
>qt grill just wants to talk
>i literally just left her place but ok
>qt starts talking about past relationships
>qt has trust issues because guys leave her apparently

Serves you right, user.

>make it clear to her that you want to get married
>also she isn't marriage material
nigger what the fuck are you thinking

This might be one of the most obvious fake greentexts I have ever seen. I sincerely am afraid for the person that posted this, because not only do you lack the willpower to not post this or the self-awareness to realise how autistic this is, but because you don't show a single sign of creativity or independent thought. How does it feel knowing that you lack the basic human function of restraint, something that your everyday chimpanzee can grasp? I unironically believe that I lost brain cells from reading this incoherent mess of a story. What kind of slack-jawed bottom feeder could not only post this, but also believe that the other people on this site would believe them. Even if you posted this on R9K you would be ostracised for staining their board with this wet fart your brain decided to squirt out. If I was given the chance to go back in time to any point in history I would go back five minutes and stop myself from clicking on your post, because I know it would create a paradox and make the universe implode. My last thought before being sucked into the abyss would be of you realising that your lack of substance had caused the end of the universe, and I will smile.

Faggot.

its not the obvious fakes you normally read which resulted in your degenerate post

Except that marriage is the easiest and most certain way to get out of poverty. Being poor is a reason to get married, not abstain from it. The reason marriage is crashing is because back then it was just as much a part of your life as graduating high school or like getting your permit. Nowadays it's seen as old fashioned and dated. Its taught in pop culture and media that marriage is something that can be dropped on a whim the moment your spouse gives you justification
