I've decided to never get married. It seems like a trap.

I don't know how I feel about it. I suppose I should like someone first...

- You don't have to answer now... it's either you or that cute blondey from CSI:Miami.PonyBoy

Pretty much Sherman!!
I would say though, if you are thinking of marrying somebody, just make sure you talk to them about...oh I don't know...whether or not they ever actually *want* to have birth children...
- yes bring this up first chance you can have...edd-e

Don't do it. It's pointless institutionalized crap. You can live with someone and have kids with them and love & care for them without a piece of paper. All it really does these days is make it possible for your spouse to take half your shit when he/she leaves. I don't see a problem with just being with someone for a long time and not needing a marriage to prove to others that you are IN FACT in love. Don't do it! Just live together and make children.
- what if they dont take half your stuff? what if both are happy as is?edd-e
- Actually most states have laws for just these occasions when people live together for so long, but don't get married.flavorful
- * Cough.
Especially with kids, haha.flavorful - Antonelli, totally agree... it's just institution and social status these days, means nothingwordsinyourmouth
- What law is that? damn, my whole plan is breaking down.Antonelli
- then get married, edd.Antonelli
- i am already married...
7 years.e-pill - Antonelli - IT is called common law marriage

I’m for it. And that piece of paper does actually mean something, at least to a whole bunch of married people. And if you don’t have that piece of paper, you still lose half when you split.
And kids are great too (even at 4 in the morning).
- really? you still lose half when you split? I've never heard of that. tell me please.Antonelli
- In Australia, it is referred to as Common-law marriage and all laws apply to it, that apply in law.MrOneHundred
- it takes into account if mortgages have been paid by her as well. it isnt automatic, it just takes a lot of things into account to determine it.ephix

Just get married for the right reasons, and you will be happy.

I just see it from a natural point of view. We aren't meant to be with just one partner, we're supposed to spread our seed around. Sure, if you just want to be with one person, that's OK, no biggie. But the whole concept of marriage just turns me off - it's just seems unnecessary.
- I say the word "just" a lot. man...Antonelli
- will you marry me, Antonelli?PonyBoy
- Have fun growing old!marychain
- yes pony! a million times YES! hold me.
hey when did you move to IL?Antonelli - 'bout a week and a half ago...
I just asked Jaline and someone else above too... I'm panning for options.PonyBoy - asshole.Antonelli
- *sniff
... I guess I'm always going to be alone.PonyBoy - i just returned my wedding dress...Antonelli
- does this mean I'm the bride?PonyBoy
- A good monogamous relationship is far more fulfilling, albeit more risky, than a million casual flings.gramme
- you can still have a "good monogamous relationship" w/o getting married.Antonelli
- ...i'm not saying be a slut and sleep with everyone. not a difficult concept to grasp!Antonelli

lol. Sounds like a lot of lonely bitter people up in here.
Sure marriage is institutional...so what.If you really love someone...I mean...really weigh it out. I'm not talking about the "we just met a year ago types"...you probably want to make sure you know each other completely...then a piece of paper just becomes a symbol of commitment to each other and your families.
That being said...I'm pretty sure 90% of people go into marriage hiding something...or without fully evaluating each other and understanding how their life will change.
Nothing to be scared of if you can HONESTLY evaluate and question each other about finances, family, religion...etc...and I mean HONESTLY. You better be damn sure you can be 100% yourself with that person or forget it.
Hell it took me 8 years to get to that level of confidence.
- or there are just a lot of people that are comfortable with being single and are happy that waywordsinyourmouth
- I get it. But Geez....do you REALLY want to be 50 and single...REALLY???marychain
- you can still be with someone when you're 50. who says you have to be married??Antonelli
- Antonelli hit it on the headwordsinyourmouth
- ...you could've been with them for 30 years!Antonelli
- um...guys...hate to tell you...but women LIKE marriage. Security is one of the BIGGER things for them.marychain
- that's starting to change slowly, i know plenty of people have "life" partners and won't marry.. men and womenwordsinyourmouth
- If you find the right girl to say...let's shack up for the next 30 or 40 years....by ALL means..lolmarychain
- sure why not, someone has to bang all these divorcees.mrdobolina
- allright....alright... single...be merry.....you crazy kidsmarychain
- did you bet on red or black when you spun the marriage wheel? just playing :Dmrdobolina
