From my personal experiences a committment was a liscense to cheat....this experience happened more than once to me......of course of believe they should be one in the same....but not the males I've been with.....even my own Step-father said, "you were not married....what does asking you to marry him mean then Dad?

Thanks for replying. I have read about the fear of committment. Why do you think some people have a fear of committment?

Probably because they have been burned so many times......or it could be that they are not ready to have just one person in their life....or perhaps they know they could never be monogomous(sp)

Something about me has changed as I get older....I really desire someone to stay.....before I really could have cared less......

Would you say that how you view dating now and before then has changed?

Lets not forget there are still people out there who have a spiritual belief system that they live by.....that goes way beyond the govt...lawyers ect.....

Technically and legally I would have to agree.

No I think w/me its just that I know my body is not as attractive as it use to be....and people go by looks in our society so much....terrible to say but they do......

i think it mostly is paperwork that is the difference, and that a lot of times, the end goal is understood in relationships.... i still want paperwork though, i have to admit, for moral reasons.... i want it to be right in the eyes of God and i guess i see it as a sign that you both would work through it regardless of what comes along, a sign of complete committment to eachother.... a dedication to eachother and eachothers family..... so the difference, i guess is paperwork, and jewelry, but those things are signs of the committment to eachother
