do you believe on dating or marriage ?? ( Archived) (19)

In response to: tell me about it.....

fieldworking: If you don't date then how can you know if this is the person that you want to marry?

In response to: tell me about it.....

fieldworking: It sounds like you just want to jump into marriage without getting to know the other person. That doesn't work for me. I want to get to know the guy before I marry him. I want to know his likes and dislikes, where is he from, where has he been (did his family move a lot, did he or does he enjoy traveling, etc.), did have pets growing up, does he have any pets now (or want any in the future, especially cats), what are his views on women working (let's me know how he would feel about his wife working), does he want kids (if he is dead set on having kids, then I'm not the one for him), his religious views (is he a Christian), what does he like to do for fun, did he go to college, what does he do for a living, how close is he to his family, is he an only child or does he have siblings, etc.





every thing you said is possible.....by normal friendship or conversation "adult one"...

but i see you sound like you want to prove one.....and that is dangerous......am sure he can satis... or you mean untill you prove ? funny..!!!

Besides, it's not all about the guy. It takes two to make a relationship work. I'm not going to be a housewife. I want to work and I acutally enjoy the type of work I do. So, I think that you have to date in order to find out if this is the person you want to marry. If getting a mail-order bride (or whatever the politically correct phrase is these days) is your thing, then go for it.
