In 60 years I have not married, I have no children, but now I am ready to take a serious step, but with one condition.

Despite its relative popularity in some countries, marriage It is considered something seditious and even shameful. As if such a decision by its very existence degrades the dignity of a woman and deprives her of most rights in marriage and especially after it. Probably, only a mandatory paternity test can compete with him on records of anti-popularity.



However, some men also categorically do not accept marriage agreements. Especially those who hold traditional views on life and family relationships. In their understanding, divorce is always the fault of a man, respectively, he should leave the family only with a small bag for clothes in his hands. Everything else, obviously, should go to the ex-wife and child. But this approach to life is not to everyone’s taste. Therefore, some try to be as safe as possible before such an important event as a wedding. And they have a right to do so.

The marriage agreement I never felt old. Even more so, adults. Although I recently turned 59. So what? Most of my hobbies have remained with me since my student years. There are also old friends, our company did not fall apart, like others, under the weight of family and social responsibility. I've never been married, although, to be honest, women haven't neglected me. And finally, I have the money. When you live alone, your head is tuned to find the greatest benefit for yourself. Not picking on used diapers and listening to your wife nagging you again.



Yes, I don't have any children. But I don't see any problem with that. I am not a king or some phenomenally advanced man who has to leave his genes for history. 99.9% of the people living on Earth. Therefore, I have no inner feeling of dissatisfaction that I cannot continue my lineage. Children grow up in orphanages that are no different from others. So why are infertile couples in no hurry to take them home? But I guess I went somewhere wrong. Please forgive me.

So, six months ago, I met a beautiful woman named Lisa. She's alone, just like me. Widow, she's been married to one man all her life. At first, she said, they didn’t want each other. But then came routine, domestic. Well, you know. And the marriage was upside down. Lisa did not want children, or rather, did not want such a father to her children. But it didn't have the guts to disperse. What will relatives and neighbors say? I've always been against looking at someone else to make my own decisions. But we're all different.



Now I think we've reached the level of spiritual intimacy to get married. Elizabeth is a really good person, as far as I'm concerned. And I wouldn't mind living with her for the rest of my life. I have a nice apartment, her housing can be rented out and spent this money only on her "want", I do not mind. But! I have one main inner condition that I still cannot express to her. Yeah, prenuptial.

You see, we don't get better with age. Neither physically nor in terms of character. And the last thing I care about is the most. I can and want to provide my friend with a normal life, with travel and rest. No problem. But I don't want that to be the end of our union. You see, I've had the privilege of meeting many women and girls in my life. And a rather tangible part of them wanted banal benefits and a well-fed existence from men. So, basically, nothing more.



Peels I noticed it in my youth and over time I became more convinced of it. So if my friend at some point suddenly has these views on life, I don’t want to be a walking wallet for her. The very realization of this attitude at my age for me, personally, is most disgusting. And by the way, a lot of women need to understand me. They don't like alphonse, do they, girls? So I'm taking exactly the same course.

If we get divorced, it would be great if everyone just stayed the same. I have no plans to buy a new house. There are two cars in the garage. I don't mind paying for food and rags myself. Not because I have to, but because I have the opportunity. Wouldn't it be fair that I wouldn't give away half of everything I have if Lisa changed her attitude and wanted to leave me? I think anything can happen. She also disliked her ex-husband at one point.



My friends tell me to wait a while, to let me look at each other. I don't mind myself. But looking at Lisa, I began to notice that she sometimes herself no-no, but hints to me that at our age, going to the theater together is at least strange. Compares us to school children who have a secret affair. Of course, I play along with her, joke, but every time from this, it is as if a nasty cold on the back passes. Is there a sense of diminished dignity?

I know there are a lot of smart people here. There are smarter ones than me. Perhaps one of them will have a moment to give good advice on the above. Because I really think Lisa is the one. However, I, like any other man in love, can be wrong, which means that everything I have feared and avoided in my life can catch up with me right now. So what do you do when you're almost 60 and you're having your first failed marriage? I have no idea. So we have to take action.



Just ask without emotion, rude comments from women do not want to read. Let’s talk in an appropriate way, without insults. I know that some women are too emotional when it comes to relationships, we don’t need to. And for the rest, good luck. I hope you have enough of that in your life.
