Hmm...been married twice - once for a year; once for five years.
Lived with a man for 9 years. So marriage doesn't guarantee that you will try harder to stay together. At my age, I am not sure if there is a point in worrying about committment. I say take things a day at a time and as long as you are having a fabulous time, keep on keeping on. I am too old to hang on to something that is no longer working for me. |

I always said I would not live with someone without being married. That being said, I did it anyway. In my defense, I moved to another state and he moved with me since we had planned on getting married. Needless to say it didn't work out and it took too long to get him to move out. I don't think I'd do it again but I've learned to never say never! And as much as some say a marriage license is just a piece of paper, it's a very important piece of paper, at least to me. I want that connection. I have to agree with you. |

I don't have a choice. If I were to remarry I would lose free health insurance. At my age, I am not about to do that. So live together. A committment is only as good as the word of the person who made it.

A committment is only as good as the word of the person who made it. I am the only one who carried insurance on me anyway, so IF the occasion(SP)arose, I believe I'd choose living together. |

NO! NO! NO! I dont see living together as a good idea period. I think a person needs to have their own place to go to because lets face it . In todays society people are much more independant and want to have their own space.

Last time I got married she was willing to live with me without being married. I was the one who chickened out and asked her to marry me. With this friend I have now not being sexual active with her has had its advantages because I am actually getting to know her better and I think it has been going both ways. For instance the other day when I was irritated because I was getting so paranoid she tried to hug me and I didn't realize it. She told that she was only trying to give me a hug and I said I was sorry because I didn't realize how upset I was. It must have came as a shock to her because I never turn down hugs. She told me that she was paranoid, too as she was having trouble trusting people as I was. I did get the hug though.

I don't need a marriage to be commited to a realationship. A companion in life would be nice. I lived with my last husband 6 years married 12.

I agree with carold....
If you are truly committed you should be able to be loyal and faithful to one person. I hate to see 2 people penalized for their double incomes. Especially those on Social Security. |

This is the first time in my adult life that I have been single. Married 25 yrs. I don't have a clue what I would do. Don't feel the need to be married again. I'm enjoying my independence, but I do enjoy companionship. It would be nice to have a companion. Live together? I don't know. Wait and see.

I don't like it. It shows you're not serious about committing. Stats say that folks who live together then marry are more likely to break up in the end. It shows a lack of respect for your partner and I've found that respect is essential in a good marriage. Sleeping with someone before I'm married tends to cloud my judgement, too, and make it more likely that I'll propose marriage to someone that's bad for me in the long run, making for a bad relationship and some rough times. So, no, I don't think it's a good thing. I'm gonna stay separate during my relationships now. We'll both stay at our own places for the most part. After we decide if we'll get married or not and marry, then they'll be plenty of time for living together. But I'll make darned good and [you know it sugar! koolaid]sure I work out the issues with my partner first! |

I was married for 25 years,why I stuck it out that long was I just kept hoping he'd change his ways. The marriage actually should of ended at the 15 year point but I'm stubborn and didn't believe in divorce. Now I'd just rather co-habitat with the person I'm committed to. A piece of paper declaring you're married doesn't mean that much, in fact it's not going to change a persons behavior, you can still lie, cheat and and make the spouse miserable. And divorce is not cheap! (at least mine wasn't)

I take what euphoriaholic & mucichic said.
Won't say "NEVER" to marrying again, but after over 11 years; just don't think so. |
