I seriously do not understand the point of marriage. You don't need to get married to be committed or be in love. Marriage exists only to set certain legal rules in place and weddings are just ridiculously long, expensive religious ceremonies. I do like hearing about unique weddings and people who simply get their marriage licenses at City Hall because THEY ARE NOT SHOWOFFS. But since people choose to get married, they must believe in it a little. Of course, this excludes people who marry for status and money. Married people are the ones showing off and saying how they are going to be toegether forever. They should stand by their words. There should be a rule that if you get divorced you cannot remarry. You are obviously incapable of whatever marriage is in your head. Divorce should not be legal!!! Seriously, if people want to become rich they should just become divorce lawyers. It is better just to stay a common-law couple. I don't understand why when one spouse dies, the other gets re-married or enters a new relationship. It's just stupid, especially if there are children involved. If your spouse didn't die, would you be with this person? Not unless you're a cheater. If you truly loved them, you would respect them and not be selfish.

Sometimes people or situations change. Why should it bother you what other people do? It doesn't effect you.

That is their road to take. If you don't want that road, then don't take it

You can not like it, but who are we to tell consenting adults that they have to live by our standards when what they are doing isn't illegal?

What if people told you that you HAVE to get married and stay married even though you aren't in a good marriage? That wouldn't be right either.

I shared my opinion on the subject and made it clear I want to speak to others who agree with me. People on this site have a hard time understanding that.

what do you mean you people. first mariage is a covenent between you, your spouse and GOD. in general marriage also lets everyone else know your comitted to each other. yes you can be comitted to each other without marriage but mariage is alot of things and one is that paper that lets people know out of everyone in life this is my partner i pick for ever.

huh Mandy, who put the burr under your saddle?

If you don't ever want to get married, then so be it. That's your personal business, and you have every right to make that decision.

However, the fact that you don't understand the reason for marriage does not mean that it is wrong for other people to get married.

I agree that some people do make a mockery of marriage (example: Kim Kardashian), but that fact does not mean that it is wrong for other people to get married.

Did something in particular happen that triggered your rant in the OP? If so, then I'd like to know about it, either in this thread or in a private message. I'll go easy on you because you are goth. bigsmile

Mandy, you are going to find that everyone has a different opinion when it comes to marriage.

I know! But at least mine is logical and makes sense. NOT being married has more benefits than anything.

marriage should be for better and for worse till death do them part.The other partner is free to remarry if she or he is less than sixty years old as a widow or widower

ok to save argument lets say your idea is more logical, but the whole world and everybody in it gets to make that decission for themselfs even if you believe its wrong, everyone has there opinion and their life and the main word here is there life. they have the fight and freedom to make a choice of mariage or not thereselfs.

I kind of agree with you. I've been married and divorced twice. I seems like once you sign that paper then everything goes to H***. I will never get married again.
