But most men are DORKS, they find the first girl who "loves them back," and they just get married cuz they are afraid of losing The One. And suddenly they are having children, and their lives implode. Because they didn't choose a MOTHER for their children. Now its Hell.

A healthy relationship is NOT 50-50. It's 90-10 and 90-10. Mom runs her side and Dad runs his. But everyone thinks everything is 50-50, a f-cking committee.

Also, parents are stressed because life is stressful. Children present a fixed economic cost. Every month you gotta meet rent, and all of that. And you are lose TIME FREEDOM. In those ways, worst of both worlds. You're broke and can't do what you want.

Children required PATIENCE. But people are f-cking addicts - Addicted to phones - Addicted to food - Addicted to weed, entertainment Everything is prime shipping. Modern life hard wires us away from the most important parenting skill. Patience.

Children test your patience, and most adults aren't prepared to handle this. Look at how people freak out over the stupidest shit in real life, and the stuff people cry about. How can they handle a child's tantrum?

Most Americans aren't mentally or physically prepared to have children. They haven't "grown up" themselves. Hence their misery. However as someone who has done it all and YOLO's hard, I love it. Too many daily joys to count. But know that your life WILL change and HOW it will.

P.S. Most men have a mid-life crisis because they (delusional) believe they could have had a different path. Like they woulda been Cobra Tate if they had wanted. There is a lot of media pressure on women to "settle," and that's actually not bad advice, but also true for men!

Marriages should be a ‘captain’ and ‘first officer’ relationship, think Picard/Ricker. The husband should lead. Almost no women wants to have to be in charge of everything......contrary to every sitcom you watch....

A healthy relationship is both sides having an opinion and being able to talk it through. If you are parents, you alway present a united front.

If your partner is only putting in 50% then you best stop wasting your time. When my husband told me he wasn’t wasting his time dating & he was going to marry me or move on I never met a man like that so I said yes and he puts in 100% then goes ahead & does my 50% out of boredom

A healthy relationship ebbs & flows. There are times when 1 in the relationship must step up & do a majority of the "work" & there are times when the other 1 must step up. Been married over 30 yrs., it's worked that way for us anyway.
