After dating for three years, I was married the first time, when I was twenty and knew EVERYTHING. We divorced two years later with a son. My ex-husband and I share equal custody of our son. We each love our son. Neither pays support to the other for the care of our son.
I am remarried, happily, to my second husband. For the first seven years of our marriage, I worked full-time, while he stayed home and cared for our children. Now, he works and I stay home. I think the most important thing about marriage is that, a. you love eachother; and b. you are able to compromise so that your lives complement, and don´t compete with eachother.
So many enter into marriage nowadays thinking that if it doesn´t work out, they can always get out of it. Please check out the writings of Henry Makow (www.makow.com, I believe) - he is an author who also produced the boardgame Scruples.
He strongly believes that society has specifically created the feminist movement to downgrade the importance of men in order to destroy the makeup of the family unit, and his ideas have a lot of merit.
Women today are being TAUGHT by society that men are nothing but paychecks. Just look at all the tv shows with bumbling-idiot husbands led by the chain by powerful career wives. Not all women believe this way. I hope you find one who´s worth it someday...someone who will end the bitterness and make life sweet.
Susan
