Of course~

Wedding is the biggest party of your life. Don't know if I'll keep that husband for long though 🤣

Hm, really, I don't know. Worth trying, I guess O_O and depends if I can ever find a guy who can keep up with me.

As far as yourself or with respects to other people?

The world people create within their relationships are like different planets distended from the outside world, so although you may have heard horror stories, there's always three sides to these situations.

I'm not trying to criticize your views on marriage, but rather saying that you shouldn't use other people's experiences as a meter for your own life.[/quote]

I'm 24 ... and I don't plan on getting married anytime soon. The problem I have is that I live with a few guys in a dorm like situation, so I don't really go out and meet too many people .. I hang out with my roommates or some of the guys from work (There is one woman where I work ... kinda depressing, and she's very much so taken). So ... its not like I'm actively avoiding it .. it's just that I don't really care for clubs, bars, or other party like stuff, places that you'd stereotypically meet people... and that kinda kills my chances. I do sports like soccer and softball .. but its not like I'm playing these sports to get women ...

On the darker side of things ... my whole view of marriage is pretty skewed negatively anyway. You meet someone, you have an expensive wedding (typical western marriage), you have 2.5 kids, a dog, and give up pretty much any serious hobby you have... (spouse + kids is a lot of work). I'll have none of that (which also extremely kills my chances with any women...)

Then again, I believe once you get on your own ... where you don't have the social reinforcement of friends or family, or roommates, I think your views might change when you're subject to that feeling of loneliness ... fortunately I'm not there yet, and I don't plan get there anytime soon.

I am 17..four months till I'm 18, but I do not plan on getting married.
I find it too troublesome since if you do not get along with your husband/wife you get a divorce, child custody (if you end up having kids), and disputes over property...You have to take in count your partner's feelings...which is seriously a drag...just having interaction with other people can be a bit troublesome. XD
SO I SHALL MARRY (good looking) MANGA.. XD Lol. Kidding, I'm not that of an otaku XD and I don't take my hobbies as an uber addiction. XD

I feel a bit sad that so many people have such a pessimistic view of marriage. Ok, so in today's society marriage has kind of gone down the crapper for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to sexual equality, current custodial and divorce laws (see: prenuptial agreements), and materialism/hedonism. However, I don't see monogamy as such a bad life choice, and maybe marriage isn't necessary for that, but it is a common outcome. If you aren't going to get married because you afraid it won't turn out well, then doesn't that just make you a coward?

I have no strong feelings for or against marriage.

If you're going to be with someone long-term, then being legally married gives you & your partner a whole bunch of legal rights that can be pretty handy - next of kin if one of you is sick/injured, both parents' names on birth certificates of any children, etc.

It's also a public declaration of commitment, which can be important to some people. Even if you choose to have a religious/social wedding rather than just getting married at the court house, it doesn't have to be one of those huge, expensive, crazy weddings - I work at a church & I've seen some very nice, simple weddings.

Divorce doesn't have to be nasty & expensive, either. They're probably an exception, but when my brother & his wife divorced after 10+ years, they agreed pretty easily on who got what and just paid some kind of filing fee, and that was it. No kids involved, which made it all a lot easier.

If I am ever in a relationship that I reasonably feel will be forever, and the other person feels the same way, then I'd probably want to get married at the court house just for the legal stuff - and then have a big, casual, FUN party to celebrate. 🤣

I like the way you think Tofu.

21, in a relationship, hope to get married one day but not planning to any time soon and not necessarily to this guy.

Dunno.
Maybe not.

So you mean that you should marry even if you're afraid that it won't work out?
It doesn't make much sense to me...

Well, should you get up in the morning because you are afraid you'll die that day?

However, I don't know of many people who go into a marriage thinking it will go south. Most people I know take those vows seriously.

It's totally different. What I mean is that if you've doubts on your relationship, you are clearly not ready to marry. If you marry have kids and then divorce your sons are going to pay for your errors.
