no, dont worry... was not proposed... lol... but was thinking of this... why do people want to get married? whats wrong with just living together? getting married may make you feel trapped.... and you may "just want to get out" and dont give me the crap of letting the kids have security.... imagine... a married couple, 2 kids. the parents always fight and have alot of argurments and dont really care of their kids because they are too busy fighting and another senario.... a couple living together 2 kids they are loving and shower their love on the kids. so which kid has a better sense of security? and also, when you are married, and want to be separated, will have to get a divorce...blah blah... but if you are single and want to break up, just pack and go.... dont you think it will be easier? oddly, i do... even though i was raised by a happily married mom and dad.... but, i just dont think that marriage is for me....

Com'mon! Isn't it the fairytale dream of every little girl to someday get married? Most girls I know had waited for that day all their lives. [/b]The only right reason to get married is LOVE.[b] It seems to me that you haven't met the guy that will give you sleepless nights. It's not about being trapped in a relationship it's just that they hardly know each other when they got married the reason why relationship stumbles. Marriage is sacred for me and living together without that sacrament is a no no. But if you feel that marriage is not for you, so be it.

Getting married aint a trap YEAH it is but only who run away from being responsible and being committed to their partners always remember that!

different people have different opinions on the subject. For some it's a matter of tradition, for others it's a higher level of committment (not to say that those unmarried are not committed, just that some people prefer marriage...) Everyone has their own individual reasons for getting married.
