Double standards suck ...

And women are ALLLLWAYS fighting about "equal rights this" and "we wanna be equal that" yet when it comes down to shit like this OF COURSE "we are women and deserve blah blah blah". Fucking pisses me off.

Whoa, wait, they weren't married yet. The wedding was called off, meaning it hadn't happened. So there were no promises made, only whatever the guy said to her while they were dating/engaged. Someone shouldn't be able to win a lawsuit because of that. If it doesn't work out, better that they find out before actually tying the knot. Wow, what is the world coming to?

The next step is getting sued after telling a girl "I love you" and breaking up with her.


>> "JURY AWARDS $30,000 TO EX-GIRLFRIEND"

Wow. Remind me to never date again, or if I do, use a fake ID.

But you won't respect me in the morning.

I'll respect you baby.

Really? OK we can do anal

<time passes>

Your honor, this guy I met in a bar swore a legally binding oath that he would respect me after anal sex. He left in the morning i a hurry and it took me 6 weeks to track him down. I demand payment for pain and suffering.

Appeal, and start liquidating everything now. If he loses the appeal then move out of the country. Fuck her.

just goes to show that assholes and morons can achieve anything they set their mind to...including being a judge.

this is why I have pretty much abandoned all hope for humanity.......not much surprises me anymore.

What a joke......

So, what now your Vows in a wedding could be considered a binding contract as well? If I get divorced cause my wife stops working, but I said "Promise to love you, in good times and bad" I could be held liable for not loving her anymore cause she's a lazy fat POS that won't work???

Give me a break. The judge should have never let this go to trial.

I could see if she spent $150,000 of her own money to plan the wedding, but pain and suffering??

She caused it herself!!

Sigh.

Where does it say pain and suffering? She left her job to marry him. But she wasn't up front about her debts...

he must have gone to :music:freeeee credit report dawt com:music:

double standards do suck. same with some (not nearly all) of the glbt crowd, minorities, etc.... they want special rights just because they think they are special.
