    You're ideas about love and marriage make the single life sound even more appealing. Without love I don't see the point in marriage.

      When you fall ill and you're all alone, you'll understand.

        I have Fibromyalgia symptoms and chronic Myofascial pain. A few months ago I had terrible bronchitis and I still don't understand. Perhaps this is a cultural thing. Do you come from a culture that practices arranged marriages?

          No. I was born and raised in the Western world.

          BTW I know someone with dementia who needs a spouse to take care of him.

            Your friend is blessed. I sure as hell wouldn't take care of either of my ex husbands, a cheater and an alcoholic. I know my folks will take care of each other and I will certainly do my part to take care of them as well. More than likely I will be forced to fend for myself when I'm old. I'm pretty sure I've made peace with the notion. As far as I'm concerned being alone is better than being with the wrong person. There's no guarantee that a spouse wouldn't completely screw me over.
