Unpopular relationship opinions

Even in a long term happy marriage, you should have a plan if you needed to leave and where you would get the resources to do that. You can be committed, but you should also be realistic.

Women should contribute 50% to the relationship, including financially.

It is entirely possible that women can have babies and nurse them within the context of their 50%. Of course, that alone may constitute a high portion of that 50%, but the two are not incompatible.

Unfortunately doing so doesnt improve the relationship. Men would still cheat, abuse and live their own life while being married. Separate finances with a well earning woman is what makes the lower paid man stay and be loyal.

Romantic love is not unconditional.

Marriage is between one man and one woman until death of one party. (Very unpopular, no one in this thread believes this)

Finances should be totally joint and undisentangleable. (See above)

More people should choose celibacy. Marriage is definitely hard but there is at least a point to it; sleeping with people as a single person sounds a lot more fun than it actually ends up being. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze, as they say.

I agreed with this until 2015.

Good dad take pride in their wife's dedication to their children and help her out or hire help so wife has time and energy to spend with him as well.

The wife should still put marriage first, just as husband should.

You have to be a very special person to enjoy monogamy. Sleeping with single people is very very fun if you're single.

Its not unholy or unacceptable to divorce but if you bring children into a marriage then try to make it work and don't break family over lust or frivolous differences.

When does wife get to spend time and energy on herself in your world view?

Most of the time, it's women who want to have babies and nurse them. "Contribution to the relationship" is washing the dishes, i.e. something you'd rather not do but have to do. Children? It's what women want, deeply.
