Do you believe in marriage?

Marriage ruins relationships. It something that you should give a lot of thought too. I didn't take it seriously and married one I love very much. We were both so in love that we basically eloped. We just wanted to declare our love for each other.

Turns out marriage isn't that at all. It's more than just a sacred vow of commitment. It's also a financial committment. It's the sad truth. Marriage almost ruined our relationship, almost tore up something special. You have to be perfectly balanced in every aspect. Think twice before getting married. It'll flip your relationship upside down. If you can be committed with a person for 10 years and have a very healthy relationship and a stable financial situation, that's when you should get married.

 

if youve been with someone for 10 years and everything is great ....sompthin is wrong ...get out anywhey ...cause how long can a good thing last ....its fucked up to spend all your life in one box ..stultifying !!

 

If one is happy for 10 years, I see why not!

But if you need to sample all the odorves that's fine too!

 

on the subject of marriage, i dont think its important. i dont like the idea of a society telling you how to live your life and i believe that the idea of marriage is something society has put in place. i dont like that people believe they have to sign a piece of paper in order to be together. its stupid...but oh well, thats just my thoughts.

 

I totally agree on this

 

in spain durring the revolution , in anarchist liberated towns , they had anti -marriges where people recognised a free union and then burned the paperwork ! they had burned all the titles to land apon liberation

 

See...now...that is what marriage should be about. That's beautiful!

 

I tend to follow Kalhil Gibran's The Prophet when It come to the subject of marriage.
See Below...

Then Almitra spoke again and said, "And what of Marriage, master?"
And he answered saying:
You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore.
You shall be together when white wings of death scatter your days.
Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

 

wow! thats deep, man. in that, theres a lot of truths and wisdom. great quote!

 

hey thanks a lot.... a really hope it kicks ass too!

 

No one needs to get married. People want to get married. It's just another chapter in this over dramatized thing called life. As long as you've got someone that you click with and you can forsee a good, long, and positive future with them, then you should be golden.

I agree with the post a few pages back that talked about marriage being part of religious customs.

IMHO, that shit is a joke.

 

free love and marriage... gotta experience everything, besides, you normally test drive a car before you buy it, don't you? keep the options open, life is too short... you'll know when it's time for free love, or time for marriage. just open your eyes.

 

Marriage is the number one cause of divorce.But, if you're dumb enough to tie the knot, you deserve everything you get.

 

I absolutely 100% do not believe in marriage. Some people want to get married and that's great, but it just doesn't appeal to me at all.
