It got a lot of views, but I need to check it out.
What's the Christian Orthodox approach to marriage?
Is the government involved in that approach?
No, I mean, his angle was if it's a Christian Orthodox marriage, then the divorce rate's like 10% or something like that.
Well, he came up with numbers anywhere from 10 to 24%, depending on where you're getting the stats from, which is less than the 50% divorce rate, granted.
But still, I mean, if you go from a 5 in 10 chance of getting screwed in family court to a 1 in 10 chance, it's still an unreasonable risk exposure level, in my opinion.
And in addition to that, like you're also not guaranteed that you're able to manage that relationship over the long haul.
I mean, you know, he likes to brag about the idea of the Christian Orthodox angle, but what did that get him?
It got him a chubby single mom with three kids in tow from two different dads.

She seems cool, but still that's not what most guys out there are chasing when they think of marriage and a woman, right?
Yeah, 100%.

Like, tell me what advantages I get from getting marriage, you know, married at this point.
