Sometimes people get married when they don’t really want to because they feel other people expect it of them.

You’re diatribe did not answer the question. The true reason people get married is because they are very religious and are worried about the opinions of others, because they want to wear a pretty dress and waste thousands of dollars on a bad party, they want a VISA/green card/tax break, and because society has a tendency to hold onto silly anitquated traditions. There is nothing wrong with long term relationships, co-habitation, and the like… but to say marriage has any benefits is silly at best. The only benefit of marriage is you create business for divorce lawyers and wedding planners.

Well for those who stand at odds with this marriage thing, let me touch on some points,
life is a number of brief stages in which evryone looks for one’s own needs and goals, dependin the stage one is passin thru, the concept varies greatly, U might walking on air being a single, U can be on cloud nine bein a married one, this is not the case, though, the expectations U hold will eventually shape the essence of the feelings U get, it has nothin to do with the status U enjoy, it is the sense U attach to that status, given U make of urself a guy with all the personal expectations perfectly satisfied, it will be on the cards to keep out any change to be made, just the direct opposite is true too, a guy with the expectations and needs of any age far from satisfied will be more likely to be given to any change, now it can be enterin another key stage, or even reasonably backin the other opposite stage for the othrs, so assumin U R leadin a life of a bachelor or the opposite case, U will be focusin increasingly on the parts U’ve been missin out, those would be the points commandin UR attention, those would be of magnified importance to U, all time non-stop U scan for strong reasons to get them explained away to not only URself but also evryone around, U seem to be a teacher to rationalize the very private conviction U R holdin on to, not based upon what truly is, just based upon what U truly want or got, so when it comes to such choices, it will be extremely tough to confirm a definitive judgement or a valid conclusion wether it is + or -, it very much depends on the feelin and sense life is lettin U have rather than what U’d rather have.

I dono why all researchers are brainwashing men to marry and reproduce.
Single men will be happier and look younger, I have seen a lot of live examples. I’m not sure about marriage, but children are definitely gona ruin all fun in life. For the sake of god, world’s population is gona cross 7 billion. Nobody knows how we are gona manage the future. So why not remain single, or atleast childless and save yourself and the entire world
Ofcourse, being single has it’s own disadvantages too. Nothing can be termed as ” a wise decision “- getting married or remaining single. Just do what you want to do.

Rose, I totally agree with everything you said and you said it beautifully. Like you, I do not need or want a piece of paper, I prefer being together because we CHOOSE to be.You also finally explained to me why people REALLY get married…I never understood it. But your explanation makes perfect sense. Thank you for your wise and beautiful posting.

I would consider getting married. Up to now I have yet to find someone you want. But the ones that I always leave my love. My life is boring.
