It seems to me that in my life, I have survived because of my jobs. Yet I find most jobs to be - an abusive relationship. My employers treat me like crap. And there is no "for better OR worse, is sickness and in health, for richer OR poorer".
Nope, in the employment relationship as soon as I am no longer a benefit for THEM, they will cast me aside without a moment's regret.
As for what I would say to a man. Well, I would expect a man to give me the same answer that I would give. As in - I am not married because I cannot even find a woman willing to go out with me. The last six women I asked turned me down. (Okay, one did say yes, and then after I had taken the day off from work, said "oh, that was today, I'm too busy today. I've gotta wash my hair."
So, from where I sit - women have options in the relationship world. Men, on the other hand, have to crawl on their hands and knees over broken glass to beg for a date. Only to be told "you are not worthy".
YMMV.
