[QUOTE="tropicaldaze1950, post: 196788, member: 13651"] My father and mother told me, at different times, 'If you're not going to have children, don't get married. Just live with a woman.' At 42 I moved in with the woman whom I married. Three years later, married, going on 26 years. No children. She was already going into menopause. Basically, I never should have married, period. Worse, both my wife and I were emotionally damaged before we met and together, we created a new dysfunctional dynamic. Likely why I developed ED. Too late to bail out. She's manifesting symptoms of dementia and I have untreatable bipolar illness. Nothing wrong with marriage, even if you don't have children. No one can advise you whether or not to marry someone, though therapy can help you understand yourself. Some men and women have gone through multiple marriages until they found the 'right' one. If you want to get some insight into what you're going through, watch the movie 'High Fidelity' with John Cusack. I do wish you the best, whatever you decide. [/QUOTE]
