But you wont listen, not even when I compare it to smoking crack and suggest smoking crack will turn out better then getting married in the end, they never listen

Start a savings account with automatic debit from your checking account to coincide with payday so after a few years you'll feel good about yourself having been able to save a large chunk of cash.

Good luck.
