Well we lost another good one. My best friend growing up used to do things with his friends every night of the week. He would always organize things and really thrived off of other people.

He just HAD to get married right out of college. (More of a status symbol for him IMO). Since then, his wife “lets” him come out and play basketball one night a week and may get a free Saturday morning if shes working.

Every time we hang out, he’s always shocked by all of the cool things I’m able to do. (The same stuff he did pre-marriage). He also constantly complains about “not being able to do things.”

22 years old and his life is effectively done. He’ll never get the opportunity to enjoy what have been the best years of my life as a post-grad, single guy.

Don’t do it, men. Go your own way.
