I waited 6 years to get married.

Things were going well, bought a house, had dual income, nice bank accounts, lots of fun.

Upon getting married, two months later, spouse caught cheating.

With co-worker.

Complete 180 in relationship before I found out.

All went to shit 1 month after getting married.

Was talk of alimony, splitting house, owing bunches of money, etc etc etc.

Lawyer said since it was such a short marriage (one year at divorce time thanks to needing 6 months legal separation) we split with half of everyhting, what we came into it with.

Never getting married again, scams everywhere.

You bring good news -- about your not having ever had children. Ghod knows how they would've turned out, with a "man" (and I use the word advisedly) like you for a father.

Not brainwashed little sacks of greed I would guess.

Those who refrain from having children are usually the best would be parents.

Somebody, somewhere is sick of her.

I was married 20 years and had two kids. There are some good things about being married. I have been divorced for 10 years and I think that my marriage had a lot to do with need and codependency. Even having kids is a way to fill a need. I am glad I have had the opportunity to look at both sides of the equation up close and personal. I cannot say that I am happier now. I am happy, but for the most part I was happy then, too. I know that I will never get married again. I have no more needs to fill that I cannot give to myself. Perhaps if I had known that while I was married, I might still be married. Who knows?
