@First-light "A fairer end to relationships".

Fairer for who exactly? Let's see if we can guess ....

Fucking dipshit went and posted the same thing again

@Jocbro

But from her side, she seemed to feel like I had too many options, that she was replaceable, and that I could never really love her specifically. Eventually it felt like my value became a threat instead of reassurance.

Counterpoint: this wasn't actually true. This is what she said. It was a negotiation tactic to force your hand to show more commitment and marry her.

Competition anxiety creates even more attraction. It does not make women leave.

I don't think attraction was the problem, I think she wanted to lock down a provider and this wasn't on the table for her.

@Bozza This is "common law marriage", and it has existed in Scotland but not England until now. Obviously this is fucking terrible for men because it is marriage by the back door. To any man cohabiting for more than 2 years, get out now. When they bring this law in, it will apply to you retrospectively. Make other arrangements, move out, do a trial separation. If you don't do this, you will suddenly find yourself with all of the downsides of being married. Your live-in girlfriend will change as a result of this power shift. Things will not stay the same. Things will change and you will lose. Ask any man married for more than 3 years. Get out while you can.

I do get the feeling that it's bait, but we'll see.

Haha, I saw this poor dude in the spam filter and approved his account as not spam, then went to his forums post to remove the post and educate him a bit.

By the time I finished commenting and removing the post, someone else had already downvoted the poor bastard lol

@First-light did the link I shared not take you straight to my comment?

It was supposed to, and it worked when I tested it

@Typo-MAGAshiv I had to scroll one hell of a long way past jokes about buying phones on credit to watch the show to find and upvote. Joe Rogan is just too popular.
