pKrema: I think people demonise marriage way too much, because of their own mistakes...
Krema, marriage is what you bring into it.............take most of the above with a grain of salt, it is supposed to be humouress You plan to make yours work and it will..............
I know this a a jokey thread. I do believe marriage is perfect for some couples. I believe its the worst for others.
I myself havnt ever felt the need or want to be married.
Ok maybe thats a fib..when i was younger i did. Now im happy to have a fulfilling relationship...and making that work...if down he line both of us wanted marriage we would do it...but it would be a small intimate thing on a beach somewhere.
Marriage is what it is for me............always. I would never want it to be anything else for me. What works for you, that is what counts...................
