Am I doing it right?
No hymen, no diamond, oh wait you’re on about a cheeky sing along

I would have thought the advice would be to hire another photographer, one who knows how to ensure a shot is in focus
Oh, looks like I got my photographers mixed upPerhaps @Raymond Lin could help??
Isn't it true that these days, married or not, if kids are involved you're going to get bled dry anyhow.My advice to anyone tempted to get married... Don't.
Seriously what is the point? Especially for the man. Marrriage is little more than a legal contract which results in a financial raping around 50% of the time. You may as well flip a coin. If it comes out heads then find someone you hate and give them your house, pension and all your money and let them shout at you for a few years beforehand. Then distance yourself from all your friends. At least that way you haven't paid out ££££ for the wedding.
Not sure about the earnings. Without kids I doubt any partner can have a claim on loss of earnings.Isn't it true that these days, married or not, if kids are involved you're going to get bled dry anyhow.
And even if kids aren't involved, if you've been living togeter "as/like man and wife", the partner has a claim to loss of earnings, etc?
Heck, why even bother with life when you're only gonna die eventually anyway?!
Why bother getting married when there's a chance you're probably gonna get divorced?!

Don't eat or drink anything, you might choke on it.
There is a reason more men are refusing to marry.
Everyone knows at least a couple of guys who have been done over. If kids are involved then you're really ******. Just a money pinyata.

No need to feel sorry for me or feel a need to try to be condescending. I am still happily married with kids. We have had our ups and downs but generally life has been great.I really feel sorry for you, you sound like a sad, sad, person.
I married a truly wonderful woman, who gave me two great sons, but by a chink in my personal psyche, I took every opportunity to chase beautiful women, resulting in the wonderful woman kicking my ass into touch.
Years later, I remarried, and hit the jackpot, no more kids, but a great life together, I don’t deserve it really, but I ain’t going to screw this one up.

But I feel you are falling into the trap of assuming that because you met the right woman that every marriage could be the same. Statistically there is no denying that around half of marriages fail. My point was that with such terrible odds the risk vs reward is just not there. Everyone thinks they will be different. Everyone thinks they met a partner who would not be bad to them. But statistically the story just doesn't always go like that. I have seen it rip friends and family apart.
Edit: Married 19 years and together for 27 years.
Wow so a thread meant to be a light hearted poke at marriage has turned into a full blown debate about the advantages and cons of being married.
GD does it again
