Its not wrong, its just a matter of commitment. If you love the person and she is the only one for, and you are committed to her, no other women would be able to come between you. Actually no other women would exist for you. If the women you married means everything to you, then no other women would arouse romantic feelings in you. Therefore you would have no need to go tasting the waters.
But if the women is not everything to you, you might have a hard time, keeping yourself from straying. |

If you are referring to pre martial? A smart driver kicks the tires and takes a car for a test drive does he not? Why jump headlong into something that unknown. Marriage is a huge decision!

All is fair in love and war. But how many wars were won rushing head long into a battle? A victory in a small battle can be a huge loss in the war.
Information is key to victory. You don't know enough about the other person jumping into marriage sight unseen. Its the small things in life that will get you. You can sit on a mountain but you can't sit on a thumbtack! |

Guys tell me,is it so wrong to love,marry one person in your lifetime without possibly tasting the waters It seems a little weird to me to marry the first person you ever meet, butt hen again i am from the 70's and I know the elder crowd often married their high school sweethearts.... Nowadays it would seem weird to hear someone younger say something like, it was their highschool sweetheart. I dont think it is SO wrong....but surfing the set wouldnt be so bad in order to catch the "perfect"wave. |

Guys tell me,is it so wrong to love,marry one person in your lifetime without possibly tasting the waters does 'guys' refer to males,, or is that just a generalization meaning people in general I think its WONDERFUL to marry one person without 'testing' others I think its much easier and much more likely to work if both people have such a mindset(so there is not constant comparing to others but more room to commit to working on their own relationship) my first husband and I would have been much better had he not gave in to the cultural trend of 'testing' waters,,, just to find out he had perriere at home already and lose it |

I was assuming the 'tasting the waters' bit was pre marriage. Marriage is a promise of fidelity. even before marriage I think odds are greater if people grow together exclusively, rather than have other 'experiences' to compare to their marriage before they get started,,, |
