    How is that gay? I don't think there is anything gay about wanting to be single and alone. Now if you said you wanted to be with another dude, then I see your point. lol

    99% of the time you do not come off romantic. :p Let your inner marshmallow show. I don't advocate naivette. Just don't be jaded.

    Amen on the bolded part! It's very difficult. Even if 1 person does these things,but the other doesn't it's destined to be very unhappy and fail at one point.Both gotta have the right attitude or no chance it can last.

    Marriage and kids don't necessarily mix

    Hehe idealist as I can be sometimes I do preach a lot about it to people who I feel could behave a lot better,but most could care less or make cheap excuses to justify their behavior.

    I don´t think there is an answer to it. When you get married, you think 'this is the man I want to get old with' ,or, 'this is the man that I want to have children with' etc, etc, etc..
    You would not think about ever leaving him/him leaving you if you decide to get married. Marriage is supposed to hold forever. In todays society, getting married twice seems to be normal and accepted..but there are also people that have been married 4 times. Maybe they decide to get married too soon, maybe the preasure of marriage took their freedom.. there are so many reasons. I think, if someone is not happy- trying to make it work is necessary but if it won´t hold anymore I think it is smarter to go seperate ways. My wish is only to get married once. What if it doesn´t work out? Of course, I would wish to get a 2nd chance, to find the love of my life and to live with this man forever. Some people don´t have that luxury so they get married over and over again until the find mr. right. I think it is everyones personal decision.
    To make it short: I only want to get married once and I cannot see myself getting married several times. If my first marriage should not work out I would be much more careful before I marry someone again. But at the end, it is only about being happy.. a number is just a number :smt102

    True, but as I've stated...IF you are planning to have children, it's more expensive. As for marriage? If it doesn't work the first time, no need to waste your resources on another ceremony and headache.

    Marrying him would've been a mistake. We were both too young, & he wouldn't have made a good husband & he's a shitty dad, too. Settling is never worth it IMO; when we decide to do that, we're throwing our happiness away. I hope you find that too, JC. Being with the right one forever sounds good to me, too.


    Don't let it bother you, Prince. She wasn't mocking you, so you shouldn't take it personally. The funny thing about it is we all go through it...when we're young we have certain views on this that we'll always or never do/want/think/like/hate, etc., & as we get older there typically comes a point in our lives where our views on those things are completely different. ;)

    Completely agree, when I was younger I never would have considered marriage nor children. Now I am older, divorced (still no munchkins though) and would consider getting married one more time. Although if that marriage doesn't work, I'll never get married again. Plus the second time round - he's signing a pre-nup - and he's already agreed to it :)
