Marriage is absolutely worth it, if you're ready and you've found the right person. Marriage is that start of living a life that isn't entirely selfish. If you have doubts, you're not ready.

The greatest thing about marriage is that you get to have sex any time she wants to.

I hope none of your guys are/get married. If you don't like the idea of marriage, that's fine but you should really be open about it with the people you date/sleep with. Most girls don't want to waste their time with people that are scared of commitment and pretending to be otherwise just makes you a shithead.

con: not being able to make out with a dude at a movie premier after a few beers

i can't speak from experience, but all i know is timing is important for making this decision. i'm in my early thirties and am just now at a point that i will actually consider marriage if it's with the right person.
men generally have a longer shelf life and can go the extra distance before committing and it's usually for the best as there's a lesser chance for infidelity if you've been around the block enough times that you're over it and can be sure you'll never have problems staying true to your wife.
in addition, if you're like me and date girls between 8 to 10 years younger than you, it's best to wait until your counterpart has experienced enough of life themselves to make such a huge committment. women are usually more mature than men, but that doesn't mean they really know who they are yet or what they want in life - even by their mid-twenties.

Pros: You get the flattery of someone who loves you enough and knows you well enough that you can both work on each others goals and dreams of personal growth, as you love for each other blossoms and flourishes and you begin to truly understand yourself and your spouse in a deeper way and truly live 2 lives as one with a dual perspective on the world.
Cons: She'll stop sucking your cock cause shes read in a bloody magazine that she doesn't have to, and if you try to persuade her, then you're just a filthy bastard. Well would YOU do it ? That's not the same, I don't like guys. Yes it IS the same. How is it the same, that's ridiculous. Oh so now I'm ridiculous, am I -well thanks A LOT, nice to know how you REALLY feel about me. Thats not what I SAID. That's what you MEANT, though - Oh, ok, so do I actually have to BE here now, or can you just make things up on my behalf and argue with yourself ?....etc etc.
- This is a myth. If you have a good sex life before marriage, it'll stay that way after.itsmitch
- No it's not.
What you said ISN'T true.mikotondria3 - My wife and I have a great sex life. It's better than when I was single 'cus we really know each other well.itsmitch
- must be fucken nice.mikotondria3

The great thing about having kids is you can use them as an excuse when you don't want to hang out with your old friends.
- also no need for hired labor.
