Until the divorce, then it becomes a legally binding contruct. Ask any man/woman who lost half of their possesions, house, paying child support, alimony, paying off 1/2 the debt. etc.etc.

i say be on your toes while engaged, things can happen in a flash to cut it off.

and about marriage, well, its been shown that the longer you wait to get married, the better chances it has to succeed. its alot of work, best have your skills tuned.

Marriage is a barbaric custom. If you truly love someone, IMO, you don't possess them. But what do I know... I've never been married.

Great! Lets get married!

Marriage= A contract whereby our illustrious government and ridiculous outdated text can tell you what is permissible.

When I am in love, I don't need a piece of paper or an archaic ritual to tell the other person.

not necessarily, not to everyone...

I dont think i'd EVER do it again!

I've been married 2 times,would I get married again? Yes,with the right woman,but there would be pre-nups,if we get divorced I keep what I had and she keeps what she had,that's how my last divorce was(she even paid for it)We were good friends and thought we were in love(I think I was more in love then she was)but was'nt so we got a no problem for me or her divorce,we are still friends.I wish all divorce's was that good.

The idea of marriage gives me the same feeling of being dragged to kmart by my mother as a kid, with my sister as torture, and just like wishing it would end from start to finish, no joy, just sighs, and depression, and oh why God do I have to do this?

And just the same feeling as dragging my feet, and moaning and groaning, and like.. wanting nothing more than to escape, and run, and be free, and never see those horrible people again.



Marriage is like the creepy blue light special.. temporary, and cheesy.


Why people get all dressed up for that event is beyond me.


AH! I dont even wanna take myself there in thought!

There are an awful lot of bitter sounding people in here.

Yes, lets argue about our experiences.

Well I was married

Had the big beautiful wedding. White horses. Whole schlock

Thinking back

It really was nothing more than a "look at us party"

We were already livin together and ****** so who were we kidding. Really!

The paper meant nothing. Except for legal and health and tax purposes!!

We both laugh at it now!!

Well I've only been married once, but sure with the right one I would do it again.... I do agree with the pre-nup as well to protect what I or they do have at my age most have kids and want them to have something in the end..

Au contraire, not bitter my ex and I had an amicable divorce, New Mexico was one of those states that had the no-fault divorce thingies. So I got what I brought into the marriage, she got what she brought, the rest was split 50/50. Just saying I probably wouldn't do it again. I just lost the desire to do so.

But "nothing is so constant as change," goes the old adage. Angel and I have agreed to give it 10 years, then we'll see. Right now I never want anyone else but her and she feels the same (most of the time......lol) So with her, yes I would marry again, right now we are married in our hearts and that's enough. And yes. I bought her a ring, but it's more symbolic of my love and dedication to her than an engagement ring.
