It is only con and no pro. Many of us who are married are quietly regret, 吞苦水
Swallowing bitter water

Cohabitation is just like owning a private carpark lot. You can park your car at any time but the carpark lot is maintained by town council and most importantly the car park lot is not attaching to you personally

For example you can always park at your dedicated car park lot at low ses Hbd but when you drive to cbd, you can find another car park lot.

However when you drive your car to low ses hdb, this dedicated car park lot must be available to you.

You understand ? Can read in between the lines ?

I think most people just find that it is part & parcel of a full life cycle to be married.
You are viewed as abnormal if you remain single after a certain age. Some might even think you are gay.
Although many views that single has more pros than cons, the fact remains that majority of human beings had been married.

I think this is also the reason why @ginfreely can 想结婚想到疯了

pro of having a cow - you always have milk.
milk is free to drink and unlimited qty
the cow can sing to you if you are bored
the cow can give offspring, ensuring you have prolonged supply of milk

con of having a cow - whilst the milk is free, the cow needs maintenance.
maintenance of the cow goes up with age
getting rid of the cow is almost impossible.
you are stuck with the flavor of the milk. you cannot change flavor as and when you like.
milk flavor do change, likewise the cow but there is nothing you can do about it.

so if you want TLDR, you don't need to own a cow to drink milk.

In this day and age where there is this thing called the Women's Charter, men would be wise to remain single.
Yes you may have a woman that for all intents and purposes, serves as a wife but never put her legally as one. Have a home together. Have kids together. Fuck each other just like man and wife, but never give her the legal position as wife.
You see, women change when they attain that status because they know the obligations they have over you, legally, financially and emotionally.

You fight her, divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
Catch you with another woman, divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
You refuse to take care of her parents, divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
You refuse to let her go out with her male friends, divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
No holidays? Divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
No car? Divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
No condo? Divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
No maid? Divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
You lose your job? Divorce and she takes your property and you pay for the kids.
Can she cook? Clean? Wash? Housekeep? Does she get prettier as she grows older? Definitely not!
Can you demand sex anytime? No. So you're starved and when she catches you eating outside, you're done.
For sure when she hits 50 or menopause, you won't be getting any action from thereon.

It's a losing proposition. You have nothing to gain in marriage as a man.
