I do believe in monogamy. I think that's what everyone hopes to achieve one day. Everyone would love to be in love and be faithful, however, finding the right person isn't easy... Since I've found my true love, that's where I'd like to settle. I'll hold on to him for dear life and treasure him forever. How about you?

Yes. Nobody wants to share their hubby with another woman.Love, honesty and commitment is everything in marriage. No matter how rich your partner is, if you don`t feel into him or he doesn`t understand you,he can`t be faithful to you, so it will be nonsense.

I really prefer to stick to one. Because I believe in one true love. I know that God is preparing me only One Man and that the Right Man for me. And we are just bound for one person. Being monogamous, you can measure how you really love the person. Being faithful and loyal to your partner. It is not that easy to find and to be found. It takes time. And we should be patience and no in a hurry. It will come in the right time and in the right place.

Yes I do believe in monogamy a bit more then they institution of marriage, because I think that being officially married can put unseen and subconscious stress on a relationship, and even though both being in a relationship and being married can be hard work, I think I'd prefer being in a monogamous relationship instead marriage. I have nothing against marriage really, but I think its not for everyone, and its not such a bad thing being in a steady stable monogamous relationship with someone you love, though a person has to consider other factors such as if they have children will he she have the same level of support that they would in a marriage relationship, and if they should separate from the relationship will they have any rights or security with regard to themselves and there child. With that said. like a lot of people I was raised to believe that marriage is the best thing for a couple in love for them, and also for any children that couple might have, but as I get older and realize and understand the seriousness and complexity's of relationships and marriage, I've become a bit more open minded about the subject, also because everyone's life is different and they have to make the choice that best fits there lives, and not everyone's lives are suited for marriage, but I defintly say yes to love and monogamy.

I do believe that marriage should be in monogamous condition and not a polygamy situation. Marriage is good only for two partners that is man and women not man and two or more women...

Monogamy is real. It's not something that's just a shoot in the moon kind of thing. What's actually happening why people can't seem to stick to their partners is because they are looking for some perfect relationship that flows like milk and honey and a life that sails like there will never be any storm. True love is not found, it is given by God. You need not look for it but it will come in it's perfect time, if you are willing to wait. We fail to find true love because we are impatient.

hello reco, Yes, I truly believe in the way of monogamy. it should always be just one woman and man relationship, anything that is more can be unfair to the other person because he is loving more than one girl and hving separate time with the other. for me, that is true love and only thing that God allowedhave a great day

Well, what would you think? I have been very happily married to my husband - the only man I have ever loved - for almost 50 years. Yes, I believe in monogamy. It is the way we were designed to live. The family is the central unit of civilisation and the main reason society is on a downward spiral is because the family unit has been robbed of its position. I hope you find peace and happiness in the bonds of a lasting marriage.

me too. i found mine and im satisfied. so content already and i ask for anything else in life. i never had so many experience in relationships but when you find that special person then the instinct kicks after that. I love him so much and head over heels about him.

Sure I believe in monogamy. I always think that people only have 1 heart so they must be have only 1 love :) I think if you share your love with 2 or more people, it's a lust not a love anymore.. Love is pure.. Eventhough polygamy is allowed in my religion, but if people really see the verses not only a verse, they will understand that actually God tell us to do monogamy. Sorry if I also talk about my religion opinion here.. Of course I want to be the only wife for my future husband :) I have a lot of friends who already married, I think it's great to get married in young age but I don't want to do that :) Hope you and your love will live happily ever after :D

Well, i think to life in monogamy is the only true thing in life. If you hafe found someone why is really loyal to you and respects you and your wishes, you should never let him go. True love is the since of life. To love someone and share your whole life with him, with al up`s and down`s is the perfection of all. I found my love and i am so happy with it.

yeah I'm a believer, I also believe that we should be loyal and faithful even before marriage..waiting for somebody perfect is amusing!! in my opinion we should accept our lover as a whole..which conclude their goods and also their flaws...unless you are equally perfect then i guess it shouldn't be an issue.. lastly, we should learn to appreciate our love one while we still can...cause we'll never know when we gonna loose them :)
