You're not even making an argument to get married. What are the benefits?
None for me. If it weren’t for the possibility of a child I would actually look at the arrangement as health hazardous like a Benzo addiction or something.
You don't need a wife to raise a kid. So is that even a reason?

I feel that. I won't even live with a woman, let alone marry one. I only needed to make that mistake once. I knew what I knew now 20 years ago, I could have avoided that mess.
You need a lot of money to raise a kid by yourself. It costs like $100K for a woman to take in vitro fertilization and carry your kid to term. I briefly considered it.
I consider myself lucky to have never married. When I was 28 or so, I lived briefly with a woman and she did a lot of nasty, spiteful shit that I was legally powerless against and for a year I walked around day dreaming about murdering her, so I can only imagine what it would be like to have a nasty divorce and have some woman use your kid against you and having to coordinate your visits with her and some other dude. I’m getting angry just thinking about it!
