Bow before me, even as yet you are the one with the royal name....glasses

Holy cow I'm tired....

But I was an ass for responding. I know my writing style can be taken as blunt and cold. Sigh... I can only be me.

you are a wonderful you... That is why I think it's important to watch people and try to interact with them in a positive manner before deciding you know what they're like..

oh and to stay on topic: twice both times for the wrong reason.. Not against marriage but definitely scared of it...

It seems the consensus is that marriage is bad, being single is better. Seems a little disheartening to me. imho

How about fornication and cohabitation in sin?

I wouldn't dare to presume that living together is sin, or judge anyone for it. I guess I'm only saying since most folks seem to place marriage right up there with car accidents and toothaches, I suppose the institution of declaring lifetime unions is a dying one...
It just strikes me personally that even with our modern enlightenments, we may be worse off in some ways than grandma & grandpa...

I was married once. Best time of my life. Widowed.

Do it again? With the right person, yes.

It's not my goal to just live with someone to have sex on a steady basis. If I met someone that I cared for that much and then developed sincere and abiding trust in her, I'd ask for her hand in marriage. I realize that one can't know the future, and that circumstances change, as well as people themselves, but I believe in commitment and the idea that it's about working together to communicate effectively.
To me, marriage is a proclamation to the world that we stand together against all comers, and dedicate ourselves to each other's uniqueness, as well as our shared values.imho

Thank you Miss Ruth. I appreciate the vote of confidence and wish blessings upon your search also (with cherries on top).


Having been married and experiencing both the best and the worst of it, I do understand the reticence in some who feel they wasted their time and emotions.
The old saying goes "Experience is the harshest teacher, for you must first fail the test, before you recieve the lesson"
I think I'm a better person for it. I'm forwarned now and feel I'm much better equiped to deal with the potential everyday aggravations and frustrations of attempting to make a marriage last.
I suppose I just hate to think that all my lessons are for nothing.
