A buddy of mine got married to a girl he met in a soapland.
Now, to save you the Google search, a soapland is a sort of Japanese bathhouse where someone can pay for the company of a woman. In theory, you pay to use the facilities to take a private or semi-private bath, and can pay for a woman to accompany you and talk to you, bathe you, possibly a massage depending on how much you pay. In practice, they’re hookers, and how successful they are depends on how willing they are to let the customers fuck them.
A friend of mine went to one, thinking it was just a place to take a bath. Only one girl there spoke English, and she just so happened to have a *massive* personality (if you know what I mean), so she talked him into paying extra for her company. That one time turned to him going there pretty much after every work day, every time we were in that area (In Western Japan, around Osaka), for a few months.
At some point in these regular visits, they talk about more normal types of things, and that ended up turning into them getting married out of fucking nowhere. He insisted that they’d get married and he would relocate to Japan, make it so she didn’t have to work at that place anymore, all this stuff. I tried to warn him, he didn’t listen.
A bit over a year later, she’s off in the district courts to get a divorce, and because he’s a foreigner… my buddy was raked over the fucking coals. Even with mediation, pretty much everything he did to try and build a life for the two of them was dragged out from under his feet and given to her. She ended up selling a lot of it, even the home he bought, and went back to the city to go and sucker some other poor dumbass.
He definitely learned a lesson though.
It’s honestly impressive how many people in here either ignored or misunderstood the “too quickly” part of OPs question
Got married in Aug 4, 2023. Just got it annulled today, where I went and sat through court.
If you wanna know, he was super nice at first. Then he changed once we got married to be physically and verbally abusive. Also very controlling. And threatened to kill me.
Married for about 3 years before he said he’d rather go to bath houses than be intimate with me.
Relative of mine was married for two weeks until her husband confessed he had feelings for someone else.
Yes, they were very young.
This was back when lots of people still waited for marriage to have sex. An aunt of mine married a guy who refused to have sex with her the night of the wedding because it turned out he was actually gay. She left immediately and called a divorce lawyer the following day.
I know someone who got married after dating for 2 months and they got divorced 8 months later. Turns out She was sleeping with the neighbor while he was out of town for work.
FBI knocking at my door to arrest him for being a pedophile and a kiddy porn salesman. No joke.
She left me because I listen to Linkin Park
But in the end, it doesn’t even matter
nobody knows how to answer a prompt; this thread is just full of people’s awful marriage stories. nothing about people’s marriages that ended too early.
A little less than a year. He was on antidepressants and drank on them. One night he decided to hold a knife up to my neck as a joke. I wonder all the time if I overreacted because of emotional shit I was dealing with at the time and fear from past traumas made be blow it out of proportion because I truly know he never would have hurt me. The switch just flipped in that moment and I immediately checked out and we separated then divorced amicably.

Ended in 2.5 years. He never got off the sofa, never went to work, but managed to buy beer and cigarettes. Was completely different before marriage.
I had been married 1 week short of 11 years. 2 children. No complaints from either of us. Happy, loving, caring. He got drunk one night. Started saying I was horrible and made him miserable and ill etc. Next day he went to stay with his parents. They, and I, thought he was mentally unwell. He returned 3 days later to tell me and the children it was over. He took half my savings. Blamed me for everything. Bullied the children when he saw them. Much much more.
He was living with his 15 years younger secretary within a month!
Chatted with a coworker who got divorced in September, got married again around March, was married for 2 weeks and said they’re probably getting divorced cuz it wasn’t working
My aunt was with her 1st husband for about 2 years. I’m not sure why they broke up. She got married about a year later, and her 2nd husband left after she got pregnant 6 months in. Husband #3 is the longest lasting at 3 years. They got married after only a few months of dating. Her son was barely a year old.
Mine lasted a couple of months. But we lived together for five weeks and had known eachother for eight months prior to the wedding. People tell me now how obvious it was for them from the start that things were heading in the wrong direction but could not make the decision for me of not marrying him.
We were married for two years, he didn’t see doctors for his ED or his psychosis which got worse during Covid. He also acquired an increasingly unhealthy lifestyle. We still were like good friends but all attraction had gone
My first marriage I hung on to for too long. She wasn’t even trying to make it work anymore. After 1.5 years of counseling and seeing no change on her part I said screw it. Should have ended it 1.5 years earlier but oh well.
we got married shortly after dating but knew each other for 8 years before hand. once the “honeymoon” phase was over and the reality of working on a marriage set in… he opted out.
I was married for 10 years. One year my ex’s friends got together and conspired to get us to divorce so they could introduce my ex to a friend of theirs who was single. They did shit like plant evidence that I cheated, and any small arguments we had were amplified to us being ‘codependent’. Eventually this spiraled and we got divorced. I didn’t contest it, in my opinion if someone doesn’t want to be married to me they shouldn’t be forced to.
Divorced after a year and 9 months- he found a cult and was screwing this chick from the church. They were married and pregnant not a week after our divorce was finalized.
My ex-wife seemed to believe that marriage meant “trap a dude hard enough and he’ll have to do what you say, otherwise you get to take his house”.
It was a nightmare of constant supplication. There is not enough validation and support in the world to sate the hunger of that yawning maw in her soul. I gave up trying and SHE left. Since then, she has kept me poor with eternal court drama.
It’s still a nightmare and I do my best to insulate my kiddo from her. She gets one weekend a month and select vacations. But she no-call/no-showed for the last couple and has announced that she will only be using 4 days of her summer time with him. Also learned that she recently blew up her LATEST living situation and relationship, moved states, and has sidled back up to her parents who she treats like a living warchest.
My first marriage ended after 17 months. He beat the snot out of me and held a gun to my head. There was no “working it out” at that point.
I was married for 3 years once, he didn’t want to live under the same roof the first 6 months or so, then when we did live under the same roof – he constantly had people over, even over night, and we were never alone together. So we almost never had sex, when we did, he hated it.
I am happily remarried now for 20 years to a wonderful guy who has always wanted to live under the same roof and have all the sex.
My younger sister got married 20 years ago in May and the marriage was over in September of the same year.
Every single family member on our side told her not to get married. She told everyone the wedding was paid for so why not?
Had to basically beg her for sex. I’m out. Best $388 I’ve ever spent
We were together for 13 years. One day she unloaded all the issues she had with me and our marriage. We worked on it for a couple months but then she asked for a divorce. Months later I found out she met a guy on a work trip and thats when she told me about the issues. So it makes sense she did that to justify her actions. But one day I was the greatest husband on earth and less than a week later she does a 180. Then once she found out I knew I got an email that said she fell out of love with me months before the affair started. Well that would of been nice to know of true so we could of worked on things together. But it’s just easier to run away then to fix what you have.
My best friend’s ex’s marriage lasted a year because he was an abusive POS who kicked his kids’ mom in front of them. Then keyed his ex wife’s boyfriend’s truck and threatened to kill all of them including his own kids. Last I hear he moved to hawaii then back here and has shared custody now.
1st marriage lasted 9 months, he beat the crap outta me. 2 nd marriage lasted 17 years then he quit drinking and started beating on me. 3 Rd marriage lasted 9 months, I came back from the store and he was having sex with a man in my living room. 4th marriage is going on 20 years ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Had a friend get divorced within 6 months after the wedding because their spouse “Didn’t want to get married” lol
She didn’t like Game Of Thrones.
Naturally i had to end it
