Marriage

[Graeth]

If you feel it right for you, go for it.
And why try to control how other people do it?
The only way you should have a say in how marriage is conducted is if its your own marriage.
Other than that, people should just keep their bigoted thoughts to themselves.

Marriage works for some people but most it dosn't. I think if you are not a 100% sure you should not get married. GIRLS DON'T LET YOUR PARENTS TALK YOU INTO MARRIAGE BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN YOU GETTING MARRIED, THEY ARE JUST INTERESTED IN HOW IT LOOKS.

I have been marry for thirty-five years and I think marriage is great.  It is hard and you have to work at it and as long as you both be honest and talk to each other you will be find.  I love being marry.

I was married for 13 years to a man that I loved very much.  I'm recently divorced and I never wanted my marriage to come to that point, but after years of being the only one willing to do anything to make it work and dealing with our issues, the only choice was to stay and live miserably or move on and be happy so that's what i did.  I couldn't be with someone who didn't love me or put effort into wanting to be my husband anymore!

Marriage has transformed into a beautiful thing! What once was about Monetary Benefit and Reproduction is finally about Connecting to others. I'm for marriages/civil unions, and hope one day I'll find my own personal Hubby!

Whatever makes you happy.
But if you don't want ot spend 50K on something thats going to shorten your life and offers no enjoyment, why bother filling someone elses pockets?

Im 20 and cant wait to get married. Im engaged right now, and i think its gonna be the best thing ever. I know most guys dont wanna get "tied down" but my fiance is the kind of person who wants to go to all the parties the drinkin parties and the bonfires. Could it be any stranger? a hick and a city girl.. she hates the city and thinks country people are neat. Goin muddin and goin in the snow and burying the truck just to get pulled out by a big truck and she loves it all. Shes perfect.

I have been married. I will tell you this marriage is not easy. It takes two to make it and two to break it. It is really hard to find someone compatiable. People use divorce as an easy way out instead of fixing the problems. And it also seems people do not have many morals now a days. I give kuddos to those celebrating the big 25 and up in years of marriage.

I love being married, however I don't feel that everyone is supposed to be. So far, all the good in my relationship has outweighed all the bad, so I wouldn't trade it for anything.

[Graeth]

I think the ease of the marriage is more dependent on the compatibility of the two people.
There are a rare few that go together so well and never have any internal strife.
Very few people are lucky enough to find true love, even fewer are lucky enough to keep it.


Also---can't believe no one has done this yet: "MAHWAGE. MAHWAGE IS WOT BWINGS US TOGEDER TOODAY"



The question is: who gets the right to determine what marriage entails?

[d1cheetah]

I get that right (with my wife's permission of course.  and if she doesn't agree, I ask my girlfriends...   just kidding) marriage is an agreement to try and make the rest of your life work together with the lucky spouse.  It takes commitment, patience, forgiveness, and most of all experience.  When the two of you can no longer see yourselves apart from each other, and have raised a family together, then and only then have you passed the first test...   the commitment to one another and your family.  Now comes the hardest part.  Can you still make each other laugh when you are growing older, dealing with wrinkles and grey hairs, rocking on the proverbial porch with one another.  If you look back and say we enjoyed the  ride together, the ups and downs, and the setbacks, then you might qualify to say what marriage entails.  I always heard my grandparents were the smartest people to ask questions to...   now I understand why.

I've been married 32 years.  It's a lot of give and take.

Marriage is full of hills and valleys, people get divorced in the valley, never getting to the next FANTASTIC hill... I've been married 31 years and have seen lots and lots of valleys, but also, lots and lots of hills.
