I don’t think “evidence” and “never” mean what you think they mean. :dubious:
I hear a Black guy stole something once. This is some pretty strong evidence as to why we never should have freed the slaves.
Reported.

I see what you did there. ![]()

There’s no real victim in this tale. It’s a lot of adults with dependent kids circling around them behaving in a very self centered "I want, what I want " fashion. Following your heart where it leads you is fine as long as you’re not dragging a bunch of people over the cliff with you.
This x1000. I see quite a few stories like this on the SDMB, where two parents are lying, cheating, and/or snooping on each other, and their kids are simply caught in the middle. I should know… I grew up this way. In the words of my father twenty-something years ago: “We’re going to do what we [the parents] like, and the kids can go fuck themselves.”
Also, this is some pretty strong evidence as to why polyamory is never a good idea.
Well, you could say the kids count as victims, I suppose.

Funny how all the stories about failed marriages on the Dope never convince anybody that marriage is a bad idea.
I met Girl A when I was 16, she was 13. Then, when I was 18, I moved to small town Montana, home of Girl A. Girl B was moving in with me in Montana.
Girl C is who I later married, and who invited Girl A to move in with us in an attempt to build a happy triangle. Girl A gave the ultimatum.
One of the first things I plan to do when I get back to California is to take Girl C out for a friendly dinner, and apologize for what may have been the worst thing I ever did, in retrospect.
Only in some ways… Though perhaps not the way it happened, the end result of the Girl C deal would have been the same. This you know. <3
I don’t think it’s marriage that’s the problem, so much as maybe there are people who won’t do well being married. There are probably also people who think that marriage fixes everything that’s wrong in a person or relationship, and that is not how it works.
For me, I don’t get why these chicks on Bridezilla get to get married. I don’t know that they will STAY married but i don’t get why they get husbands at all. I can’t make myself watch more than 5 minutes of that shit anyway, fwiw.
