The biggest fear a woman & man has when getting married.

[Anonymous]

A woman's biggest fear: Will this man become unemployed/underemployed during our marriage?

A man's biggest fear: Will this woman become fat during our marriage?

That's really what it comes down to. Every other 'risk' is some how rationalized away except for these two.

This is why I won't get married. If a man is un/underemployed, he can do that in his own name without mine attached. My name has a lot of assets, and I'll be damned if some underemployed man is going to benefit from that.

I agree with you, OP.

Clearly both you & OP do not know what it's like to be in a loving and committed relationship. If you have these fears, you should avoid marriage.

Man's biggest fear: she's unilaterally decide she no longer wants sex. 2nd biggest fear is getting fat (not the Ph phat either).

I disagree.

Woman's biggest fear: Does he actually love me despite all of my faults?

Man's biggest fear: Is she good enough for the awesome guy that I am (or desperately hope everyone thinks that I am)?

I guess DH and I are an anomoly. I was already fat. I worked a great job so DH's job did not matter as much.

Yes, both of these.
2-way tie for men's #1 fears of marriage.

You sound like quite a catch. I have a better idea why you probably won't get married.

Why does it sound like a huge loss for humanity? It is clearly not.

But really, some people proclaim they will never marry as if the world is begging them to. Don't want to marry? Knock yourself out. Who cares?

Fact

I'm a woman, and my biggest fear is that the man will turn into a manchild, expecting someone to take care of him - instead of a partnership of people helping each other.

I have seen so many relationships where a man ultimately reverts and a woman feels like they've gained another child with their husband.
