Where’s the mis-selling compo?

[Notbeingrobbed]

Where is the compensation for mis-selling the marriage system? You can get it for PPI that was sneaked in there without proper information. I want my compensation for this grossly unfair system!

Ummm as far as I am aware no one 'sells' marriage and no one forces you to say 'I do'.

I realise you are probably lashing out

Don’t they force you? For starters, there are forced marriages. Secondly there is societal brainwashing. People aspire to be married, they fuss over whose wedding they are going to, my parents (bless their memory) were convinced it was the morally and financially best way to live. When I lived in “sin”, I was frowned on.

As for the mis-selling...where is the contract? Where can you read in detail all the consequences of signing that document in the vestry? Where is the information leaflet from the government, or church or whoever telling you all the financial consequences? I’d say it’s the worst arrangement I could ever have entered into, other than selling my soul to Beelzebub. Where were the warnings.

Can I really be held to a few words uttered in church two decades ago? Why are churches involved at all. What about the cultish nature of being told that to be unmarried and living together is morally wrong! I want my day of reckoning.

I presume yours wasn't a forced marriage. And I have been married twice and I am fully aware of the 'contract' of marriage. Church wasn't involved in either of them.

What about the cultish nature of being told that to be unmarried and living together is morally wrong! then blame the society you are in and not marriage as I have lived with someone unmarried and not come across that.

To be married twice is simply not learning from your mistakes.

Whatever. You sound very bitter so I don't plan to engage further.
