I was raised that you got married BEFORE having the kids. I feel like such a dinosaur these days.😭 Paid $50 for our ring.... 40 years later still going strong.
I'm in my early 60s now. I do not have children because I've never met the right woman to marry. I've dated but there was no way I was going to give a woman a child unless I was married.
Hubby got me a $150 walmart ring 29 years ago... its still on my finger! Hes at work working hard to take care of me. That is priceless! The ring dont matter!
@@mommav0107 why? The cost of a ring has nothing to do with love. She said that she was happy with what he gave her and feels it’s priceless to her. That these girls want such an expensive ring just to show off is sad.
So the girl rejects the guy because of the cheap ring then proceeds to tell him she had to lower herself and humble herself to be with him? _RUN_ _MAN!_ _RUN!_
1st girl complaining about the friend getting engaged & married so quickly. Honey, *YOU* are obviously missing some key wife components or you'd be married already. EDIT: she says he's going to have to pull off something HUGE in the proposal. HUH? You already had a child with this man, isn't that 100x bigger than a proposal/marriage???
huuuUUge proposal. The best I want the best proposal, o-kay? Big beautiful proposal. Just like in the movies, I'm a main character. *finger snap snap* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know *so0o0o* many people that got engaged after a few months and are still happily married!!! Even my cousin announced she was engaged, and I didn’t even know she was dating anyone!!! 😮 And they’ve been together for 10 years and just had their 4th kid!!!
Dude RUN!!!..this from a 71 year old widow, married for 45 years, he's been gone for 8...it is a lot of work but it's a beautiful thing to to share with a soul mate a friend the value is the relationship and that's more precious than any stone...good luck out there guys and God bless...😮❤
Right?! My fiance gave me both his grandmother's ring and the wedding set his mom and dad used- my MIL is a widow and remarried now. I got his grandma's ring sized and wear that one but I'm saving the wedding set for when we have enough money to do something special with it. Honestly he could've asked with a ring pop and I wouldn't have cared. He actually asked me before he got the rings (MIL lives out of state) and I didn't care. I don't care about price, I care about love and sentiment.
As a women who just turned 60 I must say one thing. Women today need to grow up. My engagement ring cost $250.00. We are celebrating 39 years on the 25th of this month.
My wife's engagement ring cost $200. It was all I could afford. Our wedding (after 10 years together) was $3000. We were buying a house. That is now a $800k house, and I designed a $3500 ring for our 25th anniversary. It has our birthstones and a diamond, the kids and grandchildren's names engraved in it. She loves it, but said she will always love the first one more, and would be heartbroken if anything happened to it.
After 11 years together and 9 years married, she left cuz she needed space. Tried to come back a couple weeks later, I told her I needed more time before she could come back. Then she had the nerve to call me on our “anniversary” after she had left and then got mad that I didn’t wish her happy anniversary back. She then showed up with a gift a couple days later and asked why I didn’t get her anything…. Cuz you left! They don’t understand. Just move on kings.
I once knew a guy whose wife left him and their four kids. She found out that he had given up on her ever coming back when the doctor told her that she no longer had health insurance.
My first Fiance taught me everything about women. She cheated, came back for sx when she was mad at the new guy , left again, came back for sx etc... After 4 months of this (I did the sx because the guy deserved it) she said she was shocked that I didn't want her back. I told she is good for sx, but nothing more. Never talked to her again because she realized that I considered her as a h.... and nothing more. Certainly not someone I would want as the mother of my kids. Disrespect is a deal breaker and once it happens they will never respect you again except when you say NO to them and of course that means you are done anyway.
Kids are weapomised to keep a man and to claim money from him and the state, then used as an accessory for social status. I'd believe 90% of all conceptions are done with ill intent and zero forward planning then we wonder why the world is going down the pan
See what he did, guys? He kicked her out but he’s still trapped. DON’T HAVE KIDS OUT OF WEDLOCK! He didn’t think enough of her to marry her, but he played family and trapped himself. Kick her out, but a judge will still make you pay for them. Stop giving into your lusts like a damned animal and THINK. DON’T HAVE KIDS OUT OF WEDLOCK!
A very fascinating video, this brings back painful memories which i have been enduring. My relationship of 6 years ended 3 months ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her.
Parting ways with someone you deeply cherish is an agonizing experience. I understand firsthand, having encountered a parallel situation at the end of my 7 year relationship. Driven by an unyielding determination, I explored every avenue to salvage our bond. Seeking guidance from a spiritual counselor proved pivotal, as their intervention played a crucial role in rekindling our love.
My husband bought me a ring that contained a cluster of small diamonds. I have no idea how much it cost but if I had to guess, I'd say it was less than five hundred dollars. I still love and cherish that ring 38 years later. I lost my husband very suddenly in 2021 and I wouldn't take a million dollars for my ring.
My husband proposed to me in the pub, in front of his mum and step-dad, with no ring. I said yes, because he is my partner in crime, my confidant, my best friend, and most of all, the only person in the world I could ever imagine spending the next 50+ years with. We got married in the registrars office, and the wedding ring cost €20, that was 10 years ago. Been together 18 years now in total, and wouldn't have it any other way. Here's to another 18 and then another 18 after that ❤
hell yeah! asked my wife to marry me over a normal dinner out with. Her ring wasn't expensive although I did have it custom made. The engagement ring has a dolphin jumping over the diamond and the wedding band has sapphires set in it so it looks like water. Even though I designed the ring, the jeweler only charged me $450 to create it. I thought she was going to cry when she saw it😂 Been married for 20 years now. All the best luck to you and your husband!
I had an ex propose mid doggy drunk and off my face on coke after a friend's wedding reception. Laughed and ended it there and then... The relationship
My girlfriend and i had a daughter, she went to the local council to register her birth, came back to the car an hour later and said we have to go to the city she was born in... I said 'what took you so long?' she had booked our wedding lol so now she is my wife 20 years later and i loves her with all my heart.
where do you live? In Australia, our home deposits are well into the 6 figures for an average house that wasn't even built properly, hardly any land and so close to the neighbours that you are able to hear their conversations and learn their toilet schedules
I agree with @november132. Where do you live that $10k is a down payment for a house? I live in Los Angeles and the only house you are buying w/ $10k for the down payment is a manufactured house.
There are still some areas with lower cost houses (there are some "starter" houses where I live that are in the low $100ks that $10k would work for traditional purchases), but there are some loan programs for 1st time buyers that either require no down-payment or 1%, so it is possible....just very very uncommon.
Why are you even arguing with that bottom feeder , take your ring and get your money back. She knows the price of everything and the value of nothing 🤷🏿♂️. She goes to the highest bidder and none of them will put a ring on it .
I proposed to my wife senior year of high school we started dating when we were 14. 20 years latter we have a beautiful marriage, two beautiful children, nice cars and a boat. I spent 1800 on her ring and for our ten year wedding anniversary I gave her a bigger ring 5 carrots and it’s beautiful. She still wears the Original 80% of the time. I asked her why after watching this video and she said because you believed in us so much even when we were young and this ring may be smaller, but the love you expressed with it could never be replicated. You knew our love was enough no matter what and that we always would be together. That’s why this ring is a memory of us planning our lives together when we only had each other. She loves the new ring but she knows our love could never be matched by material things.
After 20 yrs of raising children and doing everything else that comes with being a wife and mother I deserved an upgraded ring PERIOD FULL STOP…every woman deserves it
@@NopiusMaximus man you sound petty jealous and stupid but maybe one day you’ll have a beautiful marriage of 31 yrs and gorgeous family like mine IDIOT
Wow. My hubby proposed while we were playing pool! I never asked him how much he made, lived with him nor had a child with him before we got married. After marriage I found out he made 6 figures, bought me a beautiful house 6 months prior to the wedding and he took care of the honeymoon which to this poor girl was a massive dream come true. I felt like the real life Cinderella. This was 35 yrs ago and love him even more today. We are retired, old, he's wheelchair bound and he's still the love of my life!
36 years ago we were at a bar and I was playing pool while she was with her friends. They pressured her into asking me when I would ask her. I mean, it was inevitable from our first date so no pressure. She cornered me at the table and I asked her. She said yes and we hugged When I realized what was coming I covered Both hands in chalk and she was wearing black pants so I grabbed her butt. . She walked around the rest of the night with my hand prints on her backside. This was before cell phones so there are no photos unfortunately.
I bought my wife's engagement ring, wedding ring, AND my wedding ring for $360 total. I also purchased her wedding dress for $265. It was actually from a company that makes 'Renaissance Fair' clothing. They advertised it as the 'Princess wedding gown'. She looked magnificent in it. And I paid $150 to a Navy Chaplin to come to my place and marry us in my living room. $775 total for everything. Griffin is correct, if she wants you, anything will be good enough. (we celebrate our 20th anniversary in 3 months)
I've said this before: If a man proposes to a woman, and she rejects the engagement ring? They consider the engagement itself rejected as well. Women LOVE to test men. If she can't accept that ring, and the proposal as is with good grace then WALK AWAY and save yourself some major headaches down the road.
I designed my wife's ring, gave the designer the drawing I made (I'm an illustrator), and $600 later, a beautiful wedding ring. We're celebrating our 15th anniversary in October.
That's incredible. Could you recommend where to go for something like this? My girl and I are a couple years off (dealing with college and building savings) but we're both talking about marriage, kids, the whole nine yards all the time. I have something in mind but would just like to know where to go.
My man designed mine too and he keeps saying he’s gonna upgrade it because it was $1800 and I don’t want an upgrade because NOBODY ELSE has this ring in the world and I’m not a basic bitch 😂😂😂 $10000 on a ring half these women have? Nope 😂😅😊
You are definitely being generous and kind. Imagine how below mid she looks without makeup. Then factor in her attitude and mouth. She has a hard trouble even having a rating above a 1.
I just came across your channel. I LOVE IT! A sensible young person is so very refreshing. These new-age people are empty-headed followers. Sad. I guess people don't get married for love, loyalty and respect. Smh
I lost my husband, the love of my life, to a sudden massive brain hemorrhage 3 years ago. It disgusts me when I see these women with petty attitudes! "Fat Rocks" and all that monetary BS doesn't matter! I'd give every single thing I have to spend 5 more minutes in my husband's arms. They need to recognize what really matters before they end up lonely forever. I have friends who were given big giant rocks that were divorced within 4 years of getting married. It's pathetic
Very sorry for your loss. This message really is testament for your love with your husband. I agree with your point - some damn diamond is important to these fools while actual life passes them by.
I’m so sorry for your loss! At least, you will have all the wonderful memories you guys made together. These materialistic people will never have those, same lifelong memories. Which saddens me. 😢
My wife’s ring was just over $600, mine was just over $400. That was in 1987. Last week we celebrated 37 years of marriage. Of great times and terrible times. Of love and forgiveness. Of support and acceptance. Of commitment to God and to each other in that order.
I was curious, so I did the inflation calculator thing.. $600 ring in 1987 is a $1,662 ring, and a $400 is $1,108 in 2024. 💥 Sounds like it was a good investment all around lol
@@mommav0107 That was 1987. She now wears a platinum and 18K ring she and I designed together with a laser engraved 1 carat F color diamond that is VVS1 and Super Ideal Round Brilliant cut. For our 10th anniversary I had a band made for her with 2 rubies on each end, 1 blue sapphire in the middle, and 5 diamonds on each side between the rubies and sapphire. The idea was that she and I are the rubies, God is the sapphire in the middle, and we had ten years bound together with God in the middle of all we do (red is the Christian symbol of mortality, God is blue, which is why Christ is purple - a combination of both God and Man.)
@@mommav0107 I still wear my original ring, it has 3 rows of 3 diamonds in black antiquing diagonally laid. Along each row are inserts of 24K nuggets. I have a titanium smooth band with a 14K band around the middle that I wear if I'm working hard, I don't want to damage the 24K nuggets on my original ring. No kids, no grandkids, but we spent enough trying to get pregnant I think we could have bought the parts and built a baby. Because of my health problems, adoption agencies considered us too much of a risk and wouldn't adopt to us.
@@random_eskimo_in_the_rockies they sound gorgeous. I still wear my original wedding ring just on the right hand…it will always have a special place in my heart
Just watched till the end - some of these women are unbelievable.. Thank god there are some out there that have a concience and actually care for their men,,
@@numskulltheory7133 Its funny because when woman marry each other the divorce rate is around 80%. When Men marry men the divorce rate was like 30%. Ha. And woman say men are the problem.
@@ConservativeGrouch I wouldn't even buy $1,000 ring because marriage is bullshchit. All a man is doing is catering the women's nature which is to be selfish. 50% of divorces, over 70% are initiated by women. When you see men like Sly Stallone, Kevin Costner, Michael B Jordan, Bill gates, Jeff Bezos....etc get divorced shows women are NEVER satisfied.
It’s only about what it costs because it’s only about the appearance to her, meaning being able to show off on social media and to her friends. She’ll never be happy because there will always be someone else who got a bigger gift that outshines her so the competition will never end
Funny you should say Brass. I helped My man of 4yrs with the plumbing. And be was so impressed with me he proposed with a brass washer ring 😂. I said YES. I wore IT and made everyone melt with the how he proposed.
All a wedding is, is a party to show off. for some women. My own mother died, 6 weeks after my engagement. When I went to the bridal store, and saw the other women being helped by their mothers, the sales lady asked, "will your mother be joining us today?" I said, "only in spirit". she put the gowns in dressing room, and I sat down in there, and cried. Felt like my heart was breaking. I'd have gotten married in a burlap bag, if my mother could have been there.
Remember... it is the Ladies Family that pays for the Wedding... Women want to put everything in BLOCKS on who is responsible for THIS and THAT... put it back at them...
Weddings are the biggest racket there is. Except for maybe funerals. Go to the justice of the peace and then have a little party. That’s all you Gotta do.
To ALL THE GUYS do as the man at 3:32 -buy a cheap engagement ring and test your girlfriend because it will show you her real inner person and if she is a goldigger😉
Black dude millionaire should spend some of that money for two DNA tests. Just to be sure. Let's see who's still insisting on paying 100% alimony if he's not the baby daddy. 😂
@nw8000 Rhymes with doors, floors, snores, shores, gores, pores, etc. Go through the alphabet until you get to w, see what you can cook up with that letter
I would have said VERY little. I would have looked at my watch, said “it’s [whatever time it is], you have 30 minutes to get out of my life. Get ALL your stuff and leave. In 30 minutes, I’ll will move your stuff to the trash.” Then I wouldn’t say another word. I’d sit and watch.
I'd be over the moon if my boyfriend proposed with literally ANY ring. I would rather us spend all that extra money on a honeymoon, because we love to travel!
Take it from an old married great grandma, you have the right idea. Paying for a big party, I was angry that several people asked specifically to be invited to the reception. I remember, it came out to $62.50 per person, and my sister did not show, her husband nor her children (2). another woman at my work, who I barely knew hounded me to be invited, and was a no show. Wasted money, that could've bought furniture. If travel is what you'll treasure, do it! You'll forget the party, anyway.
I agree with you! I recently got engaged, and my fiancé told me after the fact that he was worried I would be unhappy with the size of the diamond and choosing to propose in our dining room, rather than some big, grand proposal. I explained to him that it’s not about the size of the diamond or a grand proposal-it’s the meaning behind all of it. It means he’s wanting to commit his life to me, and he’s asking me to commit mine to him. The proposal itself is grand and the ring is just a gift to mark the occasion.
Was married 27 years before he died, was married with my mama's old wedding ring, married at the court house, went to the neighborhood bar with friends. We had 3 kids, I now have 11 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren (one on the way). Have never, ever thought about getting remarried, took care of him for the 2 years before cancer took him. Still love and miss him
Her response to the ring tells all you need to know. If she requires an expensive ring, you're in for an expensive divorce if you're dumb enough to go through with it.
Absolutely! $120 is the perfect, reasonable amount for a ring. But $121? That's just obscene. I can't even imagine the kind of person who'd spend $121 on a ring. What are they trying to prove? That they're better than everyone else?
My husband got me a 99 dollar wedding ring from Helzbergs cheapest ring they had. Next year it will be our 25th wedding anniversary and we will be together for another 50 years. The ring means nothing but every time I look at this silly little thing it just reminds me of how much I adore and love the man who bought it for me and the absolutely beautiful life he has given me
My wife and I got married 30 years ago this year. Our rings were $80 each. Now we own a very successful business, live in a beautiful 5000 square foot home, have 3 beautiful daughters and a granddaughter. We were absolutely broke at the beginning. I feel sorry for young guys dealing with this type of women!
@@mommav0107 A nice big diamond ring on our tenth. She is not really fussed about all that kind of stuff though. She is very practical and doesn’t go for the material stuff in life. She likes travel, so we do more and more of that now
50-50 is the best recipe for a successful long term relationship from my vantage point being married for over 40 years. Trust and honor is paramount....It's a team lifestyle for eternity...
My ring was 125 euro 24 years ago. The simplest golden ring you could find. We went to chose together. He wanted to buy more expensive ones but I told him I don't need it. Am still wearing it proud. You love the person, not the ring. Just yesterday he sent me red roses and a dress he bought for me,to suprise me, with the note how much he loves me.
Thank you Griffin for all you do to help men navigate this crazy upside down world I hope more men can find channels like yours that can really promote positive energy and thoughts.
It gets even more messed up when you realize diamonds are worthless. DeBeers controls the supply and pretend they don't have warehouses FULL of diamonds. I didn't want diamonds. I picked out my own wedding set and it was $57.00. We just went to my husband's 30 year high school reunion and I can't even count how many times I was told how awesome my husband is. I didn't need to be told that...I already know. Fellas, get off of social media and when you see a real life girl you want to ask out ask for her SM...if she gives it just walk away.
Thats very true .. What matters is Love even so .. Guess there was a time Diomonds had a greate value, but nowdays ya not rly, Diomonds and BoronNitride with all kinds of colours can be manufactured, thay are very usefull for making cutting tools, lasers etc ...
Plus it seems stupid to get such expensive jewelry with how high divorce rates are. I think it should be a fake ring that maybe you replace the for real stones at certain years of marriage, build the ring as you build your family
A youngen at work just told me she got engaged and that her fiance gave her a 5 carat diamond. I told her "congratulations on your engagement, but do you think that was the best use of fiance's money? With that money, he could have put a down payment on a house, purchased a brand new tricked out Toyota Land Cruiser, acquired 10+ acres in the country or put that money in a 529 for your children's college education. Now all you have is a shiny pebble that can be manufactured in a lab for about $50." She wasn't happy to hear that, but I think in her heart she knows I'm right.
4:10 😮i had no idea ppl actually behaved this way. I would be okay with a ring made of twine 🥺 I would just be grateful someone dedicated their lives to protect me and our kids. I would appreciate their sacrifice and generosity. I have only had a handful of female friends in life so this nature is almost foreign to me.
5:21 "husband of the year; ladies beware" Like, he isn't your husband. You rejected his proposal over his ring. You got no claim to denounce or announce him as "husband" of anything, because you didn't make it that far with him
My husband didn't get me an engagement ring, and we just celebrated our 24th wedding Anniversary June 29th. Our marriage keeps getting stronger each day, week, month, and year.
''Comparison is the thief of joy'' lotta people have no idea how much comparison can cause hurt I got into a fight with my own father because he wouldn't stop comparing me to my cousins. Remember folks, We don't live the same lives, we don't have the same timeframe. It's okay to be inspired by others but Don't compare yourself to others. Your life is yours.
It's called the Social Comparison Theory. And its the number one reason why women who are on social media are becoming more and more depressed with their lives because they keep comparing their lifestyle to that of others on their socials such as their family, relatives, friends and even co-workers. They want that exact same lifestyle for themselves by picking and choosing from each of these people the best thing in their lives going for them and wanting that for themselves. Thing is this will never happen and is akin to living in a fantasy world.
If you compare yourself to others, do so as a benchmark for self-improvement. Don't compare yourself to others just to feel entitlement toward what they have.
Thankfully, she showed him what the rest of his life was gunna be if he married her. Our 3 ring set was $400 on a payment plan. Our honeymoon was a weekend down the Cape. The trade off? We had a good down payment on a house-a house we just finished paying off.
The average annual income in the US is $38k after taxes. And these ratchets want you to waste almost a years salary on some shiny rocks and a tiny lump of recycled gold?! My sides! 🤣🤣🤣
Me and my wife bought the wedding rings together. They are made from stone. the cost was about 10 dollars for both. Now we have a house and 2 children. Women who want 30,000 dollar rings, are actually want to enjoy that they can leave at any moment, sell the ring and live of that for a long time, until they get alimony, house and more from divorce. They carry that on them all the time, no one can take it away. They can destroy the family with their finger.
Ladies, stop comparing your relationship to everyone else’s. Stop it. Stop comparing it to everything you see on the lying social media. Decide what’s best for you AND your partner, honestly and fairly, and mold your relationship accordingly. If you keep comparing apples to oranges, you will end up miserable. Oh one more thing… stop being so damn greedy
Seventeen years ago my husband proposed to me and my ring cost $500 , on our Seventeenth anniversary he gave me a $3,500 upgrade. Loyalty is key ❤, Love is worth so much more. FYI my wedding dress was second hand and cost $20 😅.
I had just started watching the vid while eating battered French fries coated in honey....read your comment and SPIT my fries out HAHHAHAHA Thanks for the Million Man Math update
These women are just dumb. She is living with her bf, has a kid, pretending to play house…..(before being married) then complains she isnt married 1:42. These women have so little common sense they’re out there messing up their own lives and then creating a new life to also be set up for screwed up life by them. Women who do this have no one to blame with themselves .
Accounting for inflation that would the equivalent of spending $821 today. So it was still a reasonable amount, unlike all of these ridiculous prices that some entitled, but undeserving women demand today.
What kind of ppl argue ON CAMERA? That in itself is a huge red flag, second, she's more worried about what strangers think than anything and third, heck yes we want big, gorgeous rings-thats why you get a cheap lab created engagement ring. That way neither of you are out $25,000, we (women) get a pretty ring and BOTH ppl dont go into dept. Easy peasy. And, I promise you, a lab created ring is just as good-this comes from a woman who can comfortably spend thousands on a pair of earrings; I just can differentiate between whats important in life and what's not.
I've been married to my high school sweetheart for 25 years, together for 30. I wanted and still want him regardless of what kind of ring he gave me! These girls need to grow up and be a woman, not a child all about the money. Why would a man put up with this???
Having a reliable car means everything to Me, that Ring and that woman means nothing to Me and I'm not even sorry about it.. When she threatened to leave in order to be the next man's problem's tell her don't let the door hit You in the ASS on your way out and Promise Me You won't come back.
The wisest thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that don't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC, ETH...)
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year, and it is the best choice l've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.
OMG! I wish my Dad told me to make sure the guy pays for all the stuff. I paid halfs on dates and didn't care if a ring was worth thousands. It would have weeded out the losers and saved me from a LOT of pain and being financially taken advantage of. There is a TON of males looking for a simpette.
3:18 Don't argue, don't fuss, walk out. If you live together end the lease and move out. If these women need 10G rings then we need a 20G doweries. You want to be traditional all of a sudden well, that's the tradition.
I bought my wife a 13k ring, we have been married for 13 years. I only bought a 13k ring because i had a good job and i knew my wife would have been happy with a 130 dollar ring.
@@huntersigler9895 yeah I could definitely understand the sentiment. I was young with a good job and few real responsibilities. Probably do things differently now. I guess my point was i had a friend that his girl told him she wouldn't marry him without a 25k Tiffany's ring, mind you this was back in 2004/5 dollars...I wouldn't have bought her a crackerjack ring.
I now understand why it’s always been impossible for shy me to find a decent date. I’ve even paid for the meal or drinks on a 1st date. At minimum, I’ll go 50/50 as I want to start as a relationship should be. TBH I wouldn’t care if I didn’t get a ring when proposed to. Mainly because I have unusual tastes& that last thing I’d want is a diamond ring. Money is best spent on making your future stable & happy, not on a bit of jewellery.
10:00 that is cattle panel, you can get it with all the same holes like you want however can assure you he went with that not for looks but for functional purposes. The smaller holes at the bottom keep small animals in better and can ve the difference between a baby wandering out on the deck getting stuck in the panel or just wondering around.
I have NEVER paid for my gf's friends and I NEVER will. Luckily, my girl never asks and neither do her friends if that happens. Stay away from women like that. You want me to pay then we're having a group activity later.
My wife and I married 27 years ago with a small fully paid for wedding and inexpensive engagement and wedding rings. If she even whispered that the costs were not enough, the relationship would have been over in a heartbeat. We are happily married, I’ve just retired, and we are now traveling the world. She knew what was important then - it was one of the reasons that I married her. We are now reaping the rewards of reasonable expectations.
Fellas an Ole buck here. I've been thru it all. House cars wife. Worked myself to death for her and ungrateful kids. Because she would turn them on me its never enough. Please dont make a mistake like I did. Don't get married work on yourself. Enjoy life. Remember this you only have one life. Enjoy it. Don't be me. God bless you all. 🙏
I'm sorry that you experienced such heartache. It isn't right that someone who should have loved you unconditionally could show you so much disrespect and pain. But I don't think it's just of you to encourage men to forgo marriage entirely either. Your experience, while tragic and unfortunate, is not the only experience in the world. There are plenty of women who are not like your wife/ex wife. And the path of "no marriage absolutely ever" is one that leads to an increase in hook ups and baby mamas. Which isn't good for ANYONE.
I didn't wifey my wife until we were 10 years together... This year we'll be celebrating our 28th yr anniversary...she loves her engagement ring and her wedding band, including our small wedding. Her custom engagement 💍 did cost 7k, which included her custom diamond ring & ruby (birth stone) insert... she clearlyyy stated to me that she didn't needed an engagement ring...that exactly what made me wifey her...luvvvv youuuu putiiiii for lifeeee.❤❤❤
Exactly, kids can't stick thier heads through, pets, things don't roll through the bottom, extra support where kids might stand. We have similar but for livestock and we have it as close on the bottom the entire way to avoid many small animals having issues. The woman posting that on social before talking to husband is a giant red flag. If she is posting this for the world the things she says privately to friends etc I bet are crazy worse.
