I only want to get married if I plan to have children. Otherwise, marriage is just a divorce waiting to happen.
That's an interesting point, please explain?

I see marriage as nothin' more than a dressed up expensive civil union. No need fer all that crap ta' some legal benefits and what not. Also I personally don't wanna eva' get inta' a romantic relationship, which kinda show me views on marriage/civil unions in that thar respect
That's interesting, why no romantic relationships?

What are your views on it?
What is your ideal age to get married?
Do you personally want to get married?

Discuss.


Rock on.
Probably mid-20s, although I've done an Ancient Roman style marriage.
Yes; ancient Roman style
Ancient Roman that's pretty awesome! cool


Haha, it was only like.. two sentences in Latin, making an offering then marking each other's foreheads with dirt. If all goes to plan, we both eventually want a full aristocratic style one. Problem with that, would be finding someone who (accurately) portrays an ancient priest to officiate over it. We consider our vow sacred in the eyes of the gods regardless, so it's honestly no huge difference. I've joked about getting married that way since I was knee-high to a grasshopper lol

They be a waste o' time and gold doubloons, and be much more o' a weakness than havin' hearties. Also I hear those thins require complete and utta' trust in th' otha' person. I neva' completely and utta'ly trust anyone. Always leave some doubt in evaryone I say, afta' all I be pretty sure evaryone else lies like I do

Well with a child involved it is best legally to be married just so there aren't custody issues, hospital issues, and any other issues I haven't heard about (all the issues that homosexual couples have to deal with).

But otherwise I like waking up every morning and knowing that my love is there because he loves me and not because he's trapped in a marriage that he can't financially get out of. The fact that he could leave any time he wanted makes it all the more special that he is still there.

I think that in general marriage itself isn't important. I want to get married one day because I think it would be really lovely. The romanticism and the comfort of such a thing.
heart doh awe, me to!

Haha excellent

I never heard it explained that way before but it is very interesting way to look at things. Thanks for the reply.

That's very interesting. I guess you don't trust because you know that everyone lies, even yourself. That is an interesting way to solidify the belief.

I make it a point not to lie, manipulate, steal, cheat or do sneaky things.

            I want to get married at an early age, have kids
            as fast as I can so I don't have to retire worrying
            about them.

            I'm a very traditional girl; I would love marriage
            and I love the idea of taking the last name of my
            hubby's
