I'm currently on wife #2 and unsure if I am going to continue it. I'm unhappy alone, I'm unhappy married. Do the benefits of being married (real food) outweigh the down-side?

I don't know. I don't know if this was the right choice, I don't know if I'm destined to be miserable forever. This really sucks.

The fact that the only mentioned benefit of being married that you decided to name was "real food" is a giant red flag to me, lol. Sounds like you're not interested in your second wife just a vessel who can provide you things you want.

the observation I only mean to point out that, under some circumstances that comment probably is only a result of current sentiment... which is far kinder than what i've heard from other 'happily married' folks from time to time...
