Why Some Guys Fear Marriage

I read this in a men's magazine about what a group of guys sitting around at a wedding reception had to say when contemplating settling down.

1."Will this work?" Screwing up a marriage is bad. Screwing up a marriage after having a kid or two is worse. It's better not to marry any woman than to marry the wrong woman.

2. Somebody better? Is the woman you're with the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Wouldn't it be horrible if you married someone and then discovered a BETTER woman later on?

3. No more 'old life'. If you have fun just relaxing, reading the sports page in silence and grabbing wings and beer with your buddies at Hooters whenever you want, marriage is not for you and never will be. Because marriage means the end of silence and the end of your 'old life.' You'll be trading those Hooters wings for parties at home with the neighbors.

4. Kids. Bad wives can be gotten rid of. Kids? They're with you forever. And they're expensive. You're looking at many years of car payments...with no car.
