I have this male friend (Bob, I'll call him, lol) who wants to know why a man and woman can't be friends and lovers without all the love/marriage stuff. What are your views on this and why do you have this view?

Because if there is enough care in the relationship for them to be "friends" and "lovers" eventually, one of them is going to "fall" for the other and want a real commitment. Now.....you can have "buddies" and you can have "friends" but it really is impossible to have both.......emotions get in the way every time. There is no such thing as "no strings relationship".........somebody always gets the desire for it to be more.


Do you know how difficult that was to be serious...........took all my strength.......shewwwwwwwww

I don't see why not. Marriage is meaningless really. Do you really need a government license to know you are right for each other? It doesn't change anything at all if you think about it. (except for taxes). It does not mean you are not serious about each other. But I'm from Europe, we don't get married as hastily as people here, if at all. grin

I'm beginning to think you are right about the marriage being meaninglyless thing... people opt out of them at the drop of a hat it seems... thanks for your input.

HeatherHoney wasn't on about whether to marry or not FunGuy - scroll up to earlier, she was on about fb's.

I do agree with you re marriage though - been there, done that, never going to do it again cheering

I know a few people with fb's and neither has fallen in love with the other one - so it seems it can happen; although it's not for me, not sure why though dunno laugh

I guess noone can judge something they've never tried though

I don't believe in marriage anymore...........that will never happen again....marriage is a false security....a piece of paper.........I don't need that paper to be committed.......

some think it's not a true commitment unless you marry.....I don't feel that way.

I think its more common for men to share the fb idea than women. But then we know that means think with their "heads" rolling on the floor laughing ... and women with their heart...maybe thats why its an easier concept for men...confused dunno

It's more of an old fashioned tradition than anything. Like you said, if people want to break up, they just get a divorce anyway. I don't think it'll be taken any harder than if two people just lived together for 10 years without the license. I've talked to girls about this before and I often get the answer that if the guy doesn't propose within 2 years, they would break up the relationship because he's obviously not serious about it. I have to disagree with that thoroughly. That makes no sense at all. Why would you break up a functioning relationship just because of a piece of paper? The guy wouldn't stick with you if he wasn't serious about it. Obviously you have to define what kind of relationship you want to have early on.
