Maybe, Brett, you just need to learn (and take to heart) Richard Johnson's song, "Why Should I Marry?"
WHY SHOULD I MARRY?
written by Richard Johnson
Why should I marry When there are bridges, high windows, and rooftops to jump from? Why should I marry? When I can drive my car off a cliff? Don't they have poison and shotguns and hangmen Too glad to have something to do? Why should I marry? I'd rather die quickly than slowly, my dear, with you.
Why should I marry? Life is hard enough as it is. Why should I marry? To be free as a bird in a cage. I work hard already so why should I feed you, too? Why should I marry? I'd rather die quickly than slowly, my dear, with you.
