Well you're right there...marriage takes two...so there is a need for another willing party....I don't recommend getting drunk and going to the Elvis Chapel though....being too drunk and waking up in the morning to suddenly realize you are married can lead to an annulment quicker than you can say the word husband or wife.....grin

the institution of marriage does have its uses,

Those that have no religious belief have a document they can actually see and show and touch to prove their love and intentions are real.

no, not really. i've had a couple of long termish partners and I remember one which ended badly because we were so bored of each other. i'd wake up in the morning thinking oh god not you again. happily we did split up though

The_Kansan: I hope you'll forgive me if I recuse myself from answering on the basis that it's too much akin to arguments of faith:

Those who believe in marriage will never quite be able to convince those who don't and vice-versa. Each person must decide for themselves and nothing anyone says will ever change that.


Amen Brother Don, you done gone and said a "mouthful here" ....I concur with your answerhandshake

As for Earl & I, marriage is the level of commitment that we wanted.heart wings

Hope you and your bride are doing Great!wave

to me, marriage is sacred. Before you are legally married, you are just in a mutual agreement that either party can decide to do away with with little to no legal ramifications.

But when you are married, it is duly recognized by the state. There are other rights such as visitation, etc. which are much easier to bypass when legally married.

Hugz_n_Kissez: I see marriage as the biggest personal commitment two people can make to each other...that's about the only purpose I see and about the only reason I would want to marry....All the other impersonal stuff I can do without.....sometimes it's not the words but the actions one takes to solidify their bond that makes all the difference between....I'm here until the going gets rough and then I'm gone or I'm here through good times...bad times and all other times because I love you that much...at least that's what it should mean when you get married...if it doesn't then don't bother..... Welcome back Wicked.....



Don't know if I told you lady shell in a while but you rock girlfriendhead banger you hit the nail on the head yeeeehaaaaa, it IS that simple so many people want to make it so much more difficult, I believe doubts are what keeps people from seeing the simplicity of thisapplause applause

Marriage is a personal choice.

I believe very much in marriage. I wish I had the chance to be married.

For those who have been married and are now on this site, I am sorry it didn't work out for you, or I am sorry for your loss. But at least you went through something very memorable...weather it was good memories or bad. It will probably never happen for me, but I have to come to grips with that.

People tell me, "you aren't missing much", or, "it's so hard, you may be better off never being married". Maybe there is some truth to that. But I never had the chance to find out for myself.

irishlass45: To me marriage is a private institution that two people enter into, private vows made between two to never cross lines outside of the stipulations promised to one another. You would have to believe in my God to understand this but this is as close as I can come to describing it. Hello



The part about marriage being a private institution.

Who wants to be institutionalized?rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
