[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are all these happy marriages you folks are seeing and wishing for?  I literally can't think of a single married couple I know where I think both partners got a good deal.[/quote]

Interesting. I personally am in a happy marriage and lots of people I know also are. I’m talking about people married 30 years and more, so marriages that have held up for the long haul. I would add that most of my classmates from college are married for many years now, with very few divorces.

[b]Oh I know plenty of "happily" married people. But none of those marriages have TWO people who I, personally, think would make a good partner.  [/quote][/b]

The accuracy 🎯 [/quote]

Correct. In literally every marriage I know at least one of the people has a massive flaw or drawback and another person who makes it work and keeps it alive. These include:

-long term unemployment and deeply passive
-flagrant serial infidelity
-extremely dull almost non-interactive personality
-obesity
-shameless flirtation with wife’s friends and alcohol abuse
-all around dud with no standout qualities and self-centered
-manchild who earns very little and was previously divorced with a kid
-insufferably sanctimonious while being incredibly materialistic and controlling
-bald/overweight/neurotic/chronic antidepressants 
-alcoholism
-both partners are abusive
-dimwit
-extremely socially conservative Trump supporter and donor

Every one of these is highly educated with top graduate degrees and all except the unemployed and manchild earn over $350K, some multiples of that. All are married to much less flawed women who earn over $250K except one SAHM.
