“Exactly. I remember we made our commitment “till death do us part” before GOD and our friends and family. Like other things today, God seems to be on the outside of a lot of things and may explain many issues we seem to be facing.”

Your American “Christianity” is phony, it stood idly by and even approved of the establishment of the Family Court System, the Duluth Model and other instruments of female power over men.

In contrast, Russia (a true Christian nation) and its Russian Orthodox Church (a REAL Christian Church!) is rolling back female power and is gradually restoring men’s patriarchical authority over their wives and daughters.

“For those guys who haven’t figured it out yet, women are hardwired to have very little empathy for men. They can break a nail and cry and demand that the world stop, but a man with a knife through his chest just needs to stop being such a big baby. Meanwhile (most) men are hardwired to be over-sympathetic to women.

In other words, never look to a woman to sympathize with your plight, especially when that sympathy might interfere with her sense of entitlement. “

Amen

Warning signs for men would include:

- "Hotflashes"
- That "distant" look in their eyes as their brain disengages when talking
- A sudden and intense focus on money (watch your bank accounts as menopause approaches and question every withdrawl)
- Talk of a sudden sense of "Freedom" once the kids turn 18
- Disengagement from the kids once they turn 18
- More "wine parties" with "the girls"
- An increase in her divorced friends (they travel in groups and recruit each other to divorce their husbands)
- Reading "relationship" related books (gives them "ammo" for complaints even if they don't really care/agree with what's in the book)
- Talk of "not being happy" anymore
- Complaints about lack of intimacy, especially if they're the one's who've shut that off. They have this unique way of trying to turn the tables here....
- Sudden/increased focus in remodeling the home (they want it ready to sell when they file for divorce)

********

Wow. My ex did every item on this checklist. Scary.

@BobL

“The first step for men who want their marriage to last is to marry into a culture that VALUES MARRIAGE, which means, sadly, a non-US and non-Western culture. Lots of options out there though...”

Amen, a thousand times!

Traditional Marriage was an economic contract between two families.

American marriage is none of that. It is a scam to turn men into slaves.

One day, one day, you destroyers of Western civilization will answer to a restored patriarchy. Whether that patriarchy is restored by Islam, a resurgent Western armed resistance, Holy Christian Russia, or the Middle Kingdom.

Watch out for the “horse girls”

That’s another red flag.

“Traditional Marriage was an economic contract between two families.”

Not universally.

If you want to put it in an “economic” sense:

At it’s core it is a contract between a man and woman. In “economics” (resources and labor) it - fidelity in marriage - protects the man’s interest that he will not be working (providing) for offspring that are not his own. On the woman’s part it - fidelity in marriage - “economically” (resources and labor) - it means her family’s resources (including the husband) are going to her family and not being diverted to some other woman and her offspring as well. That fidelity is for the benefit of the offspring of the couple; that their resources are devoted to their family unit.

A lot of what people think they know about marriage comes from literature and in literature most often it is the people of means that are being written about and not the common folk. Yes, to people of means their “social standing” and securing (in social standing) the best mate for an offspring was often considered more important than what their offspring sought. Fortunately for society the children often rebelled.
