As a woman I would rather stay single then put up with some boy that refuses to grow up and only thinks about getting toys rather than think about the rest of the responsibilities that are needed to keep a household running smoothly.
I am a part of an audio forum, and the amount of gear these guys go through simply because they want to try EVERYTHING is just insane.
Now if they are single, go for it the only one you have to answer to is yourself and when you have to have a fire sale of all that gear you just bought because an emergency expenditure comes up and you have no money to pay for it, well don't expect any sympathy from me.
But if you are married it is a whole other deal. When all the bills are paid, food is in the fridge, and all other necessities are taken care of, with an emergency fund well stocked than by all means treat yourself to a new toy.
Guys seem to lose this perspective, all they know is they want a new toy to play with on top of the 20 they already got this year which are in perfect working order. Then they have the nerve to get upset when the wife puts up a fuss about toy 21.
I have seen more than one guy come on there and talk about his marriage ending, and I wonder how much of it was over all the money he wasted trying to buy every audio gadget he could get his hands on when he already put together SEVERAL systems that sounded and worked just fine!
So I would rather remain single than have to go through that kind of garbage. I have put together a terrific audio/video system and haven't upgraded in years. So while I understand the want, I never let it get in the way of my common sense of what is more important.
