When it comes to marriage its a sore spot. I've never really wanted to get married I seen all the problems my mum had and my view was it's just a piece of paper which you sign and you get to wear rings. Now I'm finally strating to settle down and I am now in a comitted relationship. My boyfriend is moving in and has got a job closer to home. I'm excited about all this :o) Except we always joked about marriage. But he's made that many pranks now its not funny and created a big argument. He say's next time he will ask he'll mean it but how do i no that? Which leads me back to it's just a waste of money, time and effort. YOu get to wear a nice big outfit for a day and be center of attention, you get some rings and sign a piece of paper. Then once your married your entilted to anything off each other. And when or IF you get a divorce it ends up messy. Whats are your views on marriage?? and divorce??

Marriage is a good thing. Me and my wife have been married for 3 years. Both people have to want it and they have to work together to make it work. This means a lot of communication. If you can't communicate with who you're with, don't marry them. A lot of people focus on the wedding and this fairy tale ending without the research. Finding someone to marry is like a job search. When you meet someone, treat it like an interview. Know what you are willing to compromise on and what you will not. You need to know if this person has goals compatible with yours, and if you can build a life together. Many people don't think about this. Many people jump first and ask questions later. In today's society, that is a bad move.
