I thought the married guys here could make a list of pros and cons of being married. This would come handy for all those guys who are single or those about to board this train. Since I'm a married man myself I will start with:

PROS:
1-YOU DON'T NEED TO DATE YOUR WIFE TO GET LAID (sergeriver)
2-YOUR WIFE WILL COOK FOR YOU (Superslim)
3-GREAT SEX, HOUSE, KIDS, HAPPINESS (ATG)
4-HAVING A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN WHO KNOWS YOUR FAULTS, BUT STILL CHOOSES TO LOVE YOU (Stingray24)
5-RELANTIONSHIP ON A DEEPER LEVEL, MUTUAL VALUES AND COMPANIONSHIP(Stingray24)
6-YOU CAN FART (Pug)
7-IT'S NICE TO HAVE SOMEONE ALWAYS THERE TO TALK TO AND LAUGH WITH (SEREMAKER)
8-IT WON'T BE YOUR FIRST (imdead)
9-SHE REMEMBERS IMPORTANT DATES FOR YOU (DBBrinson1)
10-SHE WASHES AND FOLDS YOUR CLOTHES (DBBrinson1)
11-YOU HAVE SOMEONE YOU CAN RANT AT ABOUT WORK/FRIENDS/LIFE WITHOUT THEM THROWING IT BACK IN YOUR FACE WHEN YOU HAVE CALMED DOWN (JahManRed)

CONS:
1-YOU CAN'T HANG OUT WITH THE GUYS WITHOUT PERMISSION, TECHNICALLY YOU ARE BACK TO CHILDHOOD (sergeriver)
2-SPLIT UP IS EXPENSIVE (delta4bravo*nl*)
3-YOU ONLY GET TO DO ONE PERSON FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE (theit57)
4-YOU HAVE TO EAT WHAT YOUR WIFE COOKS AND YOU HAVE TO LIKE IT (Superslim)
5-YOU MUST NOT LOOK AT FRESH YOUNG PUSSIES (ATG)
6-BIG PAYMENT (ATG)
7-WHEN YOU HAVE A CONFLICT YOU STILL HAVE TO SLEEP IN THE SAME BED (Stingray24)
8-STYLE CHANNEL AND 50K OTHER MAKEOVER SHOWS ON YOUR TV (Stingray24)
9-GAMING TIME REDUCED (Stingray24)
10-SMALLER BANK ACCOUNT DUE TO CLOTHING PURCHASES (Stingray24)
11-NO MORE THREESOMES (Pug)
12-YOUR WIFE CAN FART (Pug)
13-GUY LOGIC CAUSES EMOTIONAL FEEDBACK SOMETIMES (Pug)
14-SOMETIMES TALKING DOESN'T SOLVE ISSUES (Pug)
15-YOU AND YOUR WIFE EVENTUALLY HAVE THE SAME INTERESTS (Pug)
16-INLAWS (SEREMAKER)
17-SHE REMEMBERS IMPORTANT DATES YOU FORGOT (DBBrinson1)
18-YOU HAVE TO DO HER EVEN WHEN SHE'S GETTING OLD AND FAT ([pt] KEIOS)
19-YOU ARE ALWAYS WRONG AND SHE IS ALWAYS RIGHT (sergeriver)

Before marriage splitup = no cost.
after marriage splitup = costly
im not married yet will be in 3 months, I dont see many changes comming.
I dont need to date for a screw, she hates romantic shit exept for hanging out on the couch with some nice drinks and a good talk.
And she asked me to marrie her

My wife is a great wife, but a crappy business partner. So I seek to not need her there.
She's a great mother too.

Man, I have a great sex life, & as long as I don't place any undo expectations on her, all is well.

PROS:
1 - Married sex = awesome
2 - Having a beautiful woman who knows your faults, but still chooses to love you
3 - Relationship on a deeper level than dating
4 - Kids
5 - Mutual values
6 - Companionship

CONS:
1 - When you have a conflict you still have to sleep in the same bed (PS the makeup sex is awesome)
2 - Style Channel and 50,000 other makeover shows on your tv
3 - Gaming time reduced
4 - Smaller bank account due to clothing purchases
5 - Loss of independence, you have to make plans with her in mind

Overall I believe the PROS outweight the CONS by a long shot.

Pug: UR father's brother's nephew's former roommate; +652|6763|Texas - Bigger than France

Cons: No more threesomes
Pros: No more threesomes

Pros: You can fart
Cons: She can fart

Pros: You get to conclusively solve issues with guy logic
Cons: Guy logic causes emotional feedback sometimes

Pros: Sometimes issues don't need to be solved, just talked about
Cons: Sometimes talking doesn't solve issues

Pros: Hot wife = respect
Cons: Hot wife = respect

Pros: You and your wife eventually have the same interests
Cons: You and your wife eventually have the same interests
(Examples for me: gambling, basketball (wife played college ball...I'm 6'5"...humiliating), she's not going near a golf course while I'm alive, we both want to buy a boat...my version pulls fish in, her's pulls waterskiers).

And I'll second Stingray on all the Pros.

The rock climbing is an ATG only thing, lol. I think it doesn't apply to everyone.

2-This is so true.
3-This is not. You know, I discovered you can play all the time you want if you make enough compliments to her and take her out for shopping or dinner.

Pro -she remembers important dates for you.

Con-she remembers important dates you forgot.

Pro - Washes/folds your clothes

Con- gets mad when I buy more guns.

I stood in line for four hours. They better give me a Wal-Mart gift card, or something. - Rodney Booker, Job Fair attendee.

Good point. I guess it's more the kids that reduced my gaming time than my wife. I stand corrected.

I have a very young, athletic, sexy, inteligent and wealthy wife. We share many intrests, she is an excellent cook and basicaly acts as my personal maid / butler/ slave. and even I regret getting married. Tred with caution lads.

She refers to my gaming time as ( Relaxing ) as in " oh, he's relaxing now "

I will put her in a sig if I can make one. she looks like a Porn Star.
