I believe in love, I just don't believe it will last forever. You can be together with that person for as long as it lasts, but in my opinion it's not a big difference being married or "just" be a couple. If it ends it's easier to leave without having to go through with a divorce etc.
I think it is very individual. Lots of people have a clear view that they will marry somebody eventually, others are really against the idea and still there some who really have no firm opinion.
No, and its not abnormal to not want to get married either. Getting married in this day and age is pretty useless. Most people do not commit and just see whoever they are dating as a quick fling or fuck for a night or a couple of months. So why even bother dating?
Actually I kind of agree with this. I look at the legal aspect, though. Men usually get shafted in a divorce- unless the woman has to pay alimony for some reason.
Yeah, and I'm not shocked that I got thumbed down for it. People seem to not like to acknowledge the unfairness of divorce laws and how it can ruin a man's life financially, and given than 50% of marriages end in divorce and women initiate divorce 70%+ of the time, it is a risk for men to do it.
I really don't know what people expect. To see how a woman can be granted ten million in alimony, fifty percent chance of a marriage working (50% chance of your things being taken due to divorce), which 70%+ of the time is from your partner's choosing...How is that anything but a risk?
Ah, IINians, they confuse me sometimes.
Of course. There's nothing wrong with not wanting to marry. I don't plan to get married either. When marriage may work for one person, it won't work for another.
I don't really want to bother with it. Might get some kind of civil thing without a ceremony for the financial pluses but that's about it. I'd rather just settle down and live with someone quietly.
Its up to you what you do with your life, its yours. If you don't want to marry don't marry. :)
I think it is normal, although all feelings can change and it's entirely possible you'll change your mind later. I definitely do want to be married if I ever find a person I want to marry and who wants to marry me (which is quite an important condition of getting married :P), but I don't think it's necessary or even important in living a happy and fulfilled life.
