I wanna marry

24

I am ok

I got married when I was 24. Divorced when 35.
So far not married again.

What about you yourself, Cat?

Started dating ex aged 17
Got married aged 22
Separated aged 55
Divorced aged 59

(Yesterday would have been our 39th wedding anniversary)

Never divorced....because never married! No long term relationships...if fact, no relationships!
Too old now, so not even sure what I'm doing here (work colleagues originally put me on here.....but I'm still talking to them haha).

Married @ 22 1/2. Widowed on my 64th birthday.

I was 22

Hi! Got married when I was 30 & became widow when I was 42.

Started at 24 ended at 49/50 (25 years)

Met at 17 Married at 25 separated at 66

Forgot about this post. I got married at 41. Divorced at 45.

Was engaged at 24, broke up at 24, married at 38, divorced at 40.

I have been single and will likely never get married. I honestly question my ability to be with the same person for the rest of my life. I don't think I have it in me to work on something for the long haul. I also don't believe in divorce. However, that's not to say I can't find a long-term and meaningful relationship. I've had my share, but I will not get married.

Married with 39, separated with 46. Just waiting for the divorce papers, but the courts are only dealing with gangland murder cases here, as it seems.


... well, a divorce in Ireland takes 4 years anyway

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I get the stark impression you are passing judgment on certain people. However, you could just as easily be judged for your decision, which was raising a child with a woman to whom you were not married. Many people would frown upon that. God forbid you had two separate homes. More judgment there (not from me). I.e., you're making yourself look high and mighty, whether intentional or not. Just some food for thought...

You're going to put whatever spin on it what you think you know of my life you desire. God only knows that we were the rarity having a child out of wedlock but we both believe(d) that involving the government had no bearing on our commitments. "WE WERE TOGETHER FOR 17 YEARS" Does not mean two separate homes. I'm not "high and mighty" but what I am is disgusted with men who produce children they have none or very little to do with after the fact. Personally I don't understand how they can do it. I've seen far too much of that which is the point I tried to make by purposely exaggerating the multiple mothers and children.
My daughter is my only child and anyone who knows anything about me (including some folks here since I've been here two years today) knows that my number one goal in life is to be the best daddy I can be. If you asked anyone who truly does know me they would tell you as they have me that I'm achieving that goal.
I believe I'll leave the "high and mighty" to you and some food for thought............some people (not me) tend to not be favorably impressed with others who rarely miss a chance to pass judgement on others at every opportunity.

Married at 32. Legally separated at 41 and divorced at 44.

Having children while not being married is no big deal anymore. This is 2020, not the 19th century.
And even if kids grow up in 2 homes, which happens very often these days when parents divorce and have co-parenting, these kids grow to be happy, healthy kids.

God doesn't forbid btw, he only loves.
Peace out
