And money my brother

Did you cheat?

As a woman, I feel the exact same. Relationships and marriages take work that I am just not willing to put in.

Wow how did you find out? Women usually don’t get caught lol

Your view of marriage is distorted. Society has brainwashed you into believing such nonsense.

One of the most attractive women I've ever dated tried to force this down my throat. She's half black & Puerto Rican, green eyes, and built like a stripper. She keeps coming back because she's searching for a retirement plan and she's not getting my money.

Red pill talking points: "Sign a contract that rewards someone for breaking it," blah, blah, blah. I wonder if Stephen A. Smith signed a baby momma contract with the woman (women?) who birthed his daughters. The mothers of his children gave this man a family with no strings attached. I wonder if Stephen A. Smith wants his daughters to grow up to become the no-strings-attached-baby mommas that the Red Pill community detests. Red pillers don't believe in marriage and hate single mothers, so what is the ultimate goal for young men?

You don’t know what your talking about…..women face the most difficulties following a divorce and are more likely to live in poverty after one. They are also more likely to be left with taking care of the children because fathers often don’t want full or primarily custody of their children and it is much more difficult for women to find another viable partner after a divorce or relationship dissolution if children are involved, as there are safety concerns.

I don't either. Every single married person I know is miserable

I'm happily married. Married for 2 years w/ kid and we've been together since 2013. And I'm 35. Don't believe the negative hype...people like you and people who aren't happy in their marriage very simply just didnt find the right person for them. It's literally that simple. They THOUGHT they did, but didn't do enough work/vetting BEFORE putting that ring on the finger. Simple as that my guy.

The numbers are staggering I don’t know any happy marriages we going off what we see

@@MikeCobb-ji9sp the numbers in the US are 50/50. Which actually makes sense because there are two people involved in marriages. Look, you either find the right person who wants the same things out of life as you do, or you don't. It's simple. Now even tho the concept is simple, it's not easy to find. And that's what leaves people so cynical.

You're one of the few. Lol

Marriage is for co-signers and rent help, the love is secondary.

it's a lot more than that.

😊exactly 💯 👏

God will not just "bring". This is not the Bible times. You must actively engage with the opposite sex to stand a chance

I agree! FREEDOM is a beautiful thing and I wish that people can understand that...there us nothing in the world like not having ANYONE to answer to!

Does Stephen A have a son or daughter?

@@chrisconnors9449 He has a daughter for sure. I'm not sure about a son.

​@@chrisconnors9449he has 2 daughters

The other option is to be married a couple of times in your lifetime so you don't have to stay with one person all your life. People like Trump have done it perfectly.

So you don’t like seeing yourself in the mirror 😂

Sooo yall single men love using your hand every other night? Empty house to come home to (unless your living with a bunch of other guys as a grown man which is.....odd)? Living for your friends instead of the family you created? Being lonely? I mean if that's your twist, cool. I personally enjoy the fact that I come home to a sexy woman, beautiful kid, loving household, and a person who 1000% has my back/best interests at heart. Yall single men think marriage is death sentence, when it's actually the most fulfilling. Find you your person bruh, you'll know exactly what I'm talking bout

​@@kingjames6731ok bro, that's your life, how come it's a problem cause we love our peace??? Nobody is jumping to take that bad deal, if we happy, let us be happy, no wife happy life, respectfully!

@thundergato84 You would not be here on this earth if it wasn't for God creating YOU! Even Stephen acknowledged the scripture and God.

He's right on the nose. A Godly marriage lasts longer bc despite issues, their faith in God and willingness to fight for each other will keep them together

U better preach! Love love love ur point of view.

I am a happily married man. I'm 35, been with my wife since 2013. Have a child together too. Of course there are challenges but that every relationship...that's nothing new. But overall, I can't imagine doing this thing called life with anyone else. She's my best friend, we do damn near everything together, have sex often, life is good! You, like many many other men, just havent found the right woman for YOU! Either that or you're the problem. People have to look at themselves in the mirror and figure themselves out, before stepping into the relationship arena. It's not easy, but nothing in life worth having is.

I'm 41 and happily married for 10 years now with 3 kids. It ain't easy all the time and there are arguments but way more good then bad. If you thinking from mindset of western woman this or that then you sound like a prick that's just not good with women. It's not them it's you. Nothing wrong with being single and 49 though but that ain't no excuse. It's so damn easy to find a good woman.....so damn easy. Especially if you invest in yourself first as a man. With women though it isn't as easy they damned if they do and damned if they don't. They also narrower window of their prime to work with. But that's another discussion.

​@businesstron it's definitely not easy finding the right woman.

@investbetter that’s your take? Show you a happily married man? I’ve been married to my wife for 20 years. I’m happily married. It has taken work and sacrifice from both parties but it’s been totally worth it. This is a L take.

@InvestBetter...I am a woman and I know several happily married men. Their wives are my friends and are in long term marriages. If you want to get married you have to take your time and find the right person, someone with the same or similar shared values. I've been married twice, both were jerks. So I concluded that I must be a jerk as well because you tend to attract the kind of person you are. So for the last few years I decided to work on myself. I am much happier. I travel, sleep late in the mornings, cook when I want and generally enjoy life and don't want the responsibility of another person. If I were to meet what I would consider to be the "right' guy, I would not be averse to a relationship but he has to find me cause I'm not looking...lol.

only real men will understand my brother!

@@mysticman9331 you can have one on your side as long as you don't let them break you stress you out or rule you.

@@kevinthomas6924 true that. Women are a lot of work. But we do need them as man. Hopefully the one one gets will have less issues.

@@mysticman9331 do you thank they need us because they will tell you they don't

Because they are going around inspiring other women to say they don't need us I think that's part of the reason why they doing what they doing to us because they know we need them but they would tell us in our face we don't need yall

Marriage has no meaning, when you die (if you make it to heaven) you will not be married to your spouse on earth, she/he will be just a brother or sister in christ. It is actually better to stay single because one is focusing on how to please christ while the other is focusing on how to please their spouse and christ. Store your treasures in heaven and that is where your heart will be also. 25 Now concerning[f] the betrothed,[g] I have no command from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy. 26 I think that in view of the present[h] distress it is good for a person to remain as he is. 27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife. 28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned, and if a betrothed woman[i] marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will have worldly troubles, and I would spare you that. 29 This is what I mean, brothers: the appointed time has grown very short. From now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none, 30 and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no goods, 31 and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away. 32 I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to please the Lord. 33 But the married man is anxious about worldly things, how to please his wife, 34 and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband. 35 I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord. 36 If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed,[j] if his[k] passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry-it is no sin. 37 But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well. 38 So then he who marries his betrothed does well, and he who refrains from marriage will do even better. 39 A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord. 40 Yet in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I too have the Spirit of God. 1 Corinthians 7:25-39

​@@indiefilmmillennial8338 Not necessarily. Times are evolving. We have more instances now of successful, content women, who choose to be single and child free than ever before.

Like myself, he may just be proud of his daughters and "want" them to live the life that makes them happiest.

​@@deitricellis7811I am happy for your granddaughter

Much respect to your for this opinion. It's really rare to see a woman have such perspective. All the best.

But if it got turned out that there's a lot more dysfunctional azz behavior than ever before in traditional settings, maybe it is better off to part ways.

Imma keep it real, it's nothing beautiful about being single. Unless you mean single as in NOT married but still with someone

@@negative2positve380The beauty of being single with nobody is that you can see your own flaws and work on yourself for your future partner. I think what you’re referring to is people who just want to be alone forever ..

1. Loyalty 2. Companionship 3. Sexual needs met (don't need your hand anymore) 4. Just someone to come home to 5. Starting a family (nothing is more precious than that) 6.

@@punch1420 I think people think too much into it. Maybe I'm just jaded because I was blessed enough to find someone who wants the same things out of life as I do, and we have the same expectations. Marriage is not that hard, it's not scary, it's not something I regret in the slightest. It bring me more peace knowing that I can come home everyday and know exactly what to expect and who I am with. That's true peace of mind. Having a partner in life is something I'm preettttyyyy sure most people really want. They just have had bad luck finding it so they gave up and became cynical. Now of course there are people who honestly/truly just want to be by themselves. But people who TRULY feel that way are minimal.

They are lost and don’t understand we’re literally living in the negative ramifications of the lack of the nuclear family!

Thank you

I wish your husband can say that too.

People change even in relationships. At least in a relationship you can move away from the person. In marriage you are stuck with a stranger all of a sudden.

The likelihood of you finding that special person is slim, especially in your vicinity the person that matches you could be 500+ miles away. Plus if you're a high earner with divorce rates near 50% and a high majority of divorces filed by women I definitely don't want to take those odds.

He can do what he wants on his own show

I don't think marriage is "glamorized" at all lol If anything it's demonized. But as a married man with a kid, I can honestly say that if you're fortunate enough to find the RIGHT person for you, you'll absolutely want to get married and will happy you did.

@kingjames6731 absolutely that's what I've said other than that ain't worth it

THIS

If the man has the children, he can do the same. No different standard here.
