I've been married and for a period of time I didn't think I would ever consider getting married again, that was until I met the real love of my life and now I don't want to live another day without him. I know we don't have to be married for this to happen, but if it happens, I would be one of the happiest women that ever walked down the aisle. If it doesn't happen, I'm still one of the happiest women, just to live the rest of my life with him and our family.

I have the outlook that i dont need to be married to be committed to somone. I dont need to stand before a judge or pastor that i dont really know or respect and have them tell me i am committed. once i say i am with you that is it... i will never cheat lie or intentially hurt. I was married once and was not opposed to going through the ceremony in fact it was great. I am not bitter or jaded against ever doing it again... just dont need too... does any one get this.... Twice removed on my part,,so yes,,,a,,,,,,number three........ I would have to really,,,,FEEL,,,a security there in HER,,,before I could do THAT walk,,,,,But,,I could do that walk easy if I felt her heart as mine was together witin us.. But I have LIVED to say, act, and feel as you said here. COMMITMENT DOES NOT have to come with a ring and paper,,,,it comes fron inside all that you hold true and honest with each other... |

the only thing about a legal marriage is the tax breaks, insurance, etc. Then again you could be considered common law (at least in Texas). I don't feel the need for marriage any more (like when I was young) I can enjoy a committed relationship with someone with out a piece of paper Common law in Texas is also iffy. I was with a guy for 4 years, and he tried to file a divorce to get half. The divorce lawyer said it wasn't a common law marriage, and not to worry about it. Common law is only really useful for children, and even then you don't need to be married. |

Regardless if we are talking about marriage, grocery shopping, or going to the movies -- saying "never" puts a limit on our lives. I am not one to limit myself by saying emphatically "NO" or "YES" on SOME life choices. When the right opportunity presents itself, we are all vulnerable in doing things we thought otherwise. Agreed. I swore up and down I'd never get married. Getting engaged next week, with marriage after he gets back from Iraq. |

An ex boyfriend of mine tried the same thing and he didn't even live with me and I had a doozy of a time trying to prove all of this |

An ex boyfriend of mine tried the same thing and he didn't even live with me and I had a doozy of a time trying to prove all of this I did pretty good. The only thing was I sold all of my stuff to my parents for a $1.00 and asked if he wan't the half. He was a lot of bluff and blow when it finally came down to it. I was smart and had the dog put into my name only when I adopted her, and he did try to get her. But when I let the foster mom know, she called him up and told him she'd have to take the dog back and re-do the adoption and she didn't guarantee hed get her anyways, as they had already met my family (as that's where she goes if I ever keel over). |
