You know, I was saying, you know, when you meet someone, you should lay out exactly what you want. This is a very important question to have early, early on. Now, in terms of where you are with your partner, I would say that if she is for, if she's pro this, and you were indifferent, it feels like you're indifferent, not anti, but indifferent.

Yeah, I think I'm somewhat agnostic to it. However, I can call out a bunch of downsides to getting married. Really? Like? Well, again, I don't know because I'm not married. So all the married people are like screaming at me. I know this because they DM me. They've been DMing me for many, many years since I started the Diary of a CEO.

Because in some of those early episodes, I was really quite against it. But over time, I've kind of developed my thinking here. I just wonder, I can't understand the first principles as to why having a... like government or religious contract with somebody is going to increase the probability of success in the union of love. Um, there's obviously the issue with the prenup situation.

Yeah. I don't have a concern that she's going to try and bankrupt me or that I might try and bankrupt her. Um, so that's not really a concern. Um, The whole charade of, like, doing a massive wedding, I think, is a little bit weird.

I've also watched a couple of my friends at the moment who are getting married. The, like, two years of pain and heartache and, like, cancelling date nights so that they can afford this one wedding day feels, like, highly illogical to me.

I just, I sometimes hear that people can't like get out of their marriage without having to like file a divorce thing with like the, with through lawyers and going to court and battling out in court.
