Her Boyfriend Of Eight Years Admitted He Would Never Marry Her Because He Thinks Women Are “Shameless” And Initiate 80% Of Divorces
This 31-year-old woman has been with her boyfriend, who is 33, for eight years. And when they first started dating, she claimed her boyfriend never once mentioned that marriage was not in the cards for them.
In fact, she even remembers having specific conversations with him about marriage after their relationship started to become more serious.
“And he always said that he was ‘open’ to getting married, as long as it was not ‘rushed,'” she recalled.
“That was five years ago.”
But, over the last year, she revealed how her boyfriend’s entire perspective on marriage has completely changed.
Now, he actually has absolutely no interest in tying the knot and claims it’s because “women initiate 80% of divorces.”
Her boyfriend also believes that spouses nowadays much rather “get a quick divorce” instead of trying to work through even the tiniest of marriage problems.
“And at the end of his little rant, he also said, ‘Nowadays, women are shameless,'” she revealed.
Her boyfriend’s shifted view seriously hurt her, too. Marriage was one thing that she always wanted in her life.

Plus, since she and her boyfriend have been together for nearly a decade, her family members also keep asking when they are finally going to tie the knot.
However, ever since her boyfriend admitted that he doesn’t want that for them, she has been trying to just accept the fact that she won’t get what she always dreamed about. And that makes her really upset.
She has noticed other strange perspectives that her boyfriend has, too. For instance, he is always talking badly about children who are born out of wedlock. But she’s always been upfront about really wanting kids, and her boyfriend claims that it will happen eventually.
So, that seriously confuses her, and she isn’t sure whether that means that her boyfriend is planning to have kids out of wedlock.
And speaking of kids, she is starting to get nervous about her time to have kids running out since her biological clock is ticking.
“I can’t afford for him to keep procrastinating and pushing these major life events aside,” she vented.
And even though she loves her boyfriend more than anyone and feels like he is her life partner, she is just heartbroken that she will never be able to marry the guy who she has been so in love with for nearly a decade. So, she’s been left wondering whether there are any possible solutions to fix this situation or if she will just have to accept her boyfriend’s wishes.
Why do you think her boyfriend had such a drastic change of heart? Is it worth it to stay with someone who is on such a different page? If she does stay, do you think she might harbor resentment in the future? What would you do?
