ofcourse even if u dont think it is necessary, then its not correct in my view we need this tag for the better of the children as they gonna face the social diellama when they goto school.

To get married , all it is is just a piece of paper and a party. Also after a while of living together as a couple you are common law married from what I hear. If you feel you need it then go ahead and get it. I think it is possiable though to be together witout getting married.

I do not think that it is a good idea but I think that it is worse to get married and divorce

Nowadays it does not seem to matter much anymore. It also depends on culture and society.

Staying together with marriage or without marriage is a personal choice.But in some societies it matters a lot.I dont know much about UK ,USA or other countries but i can tell about India.It is not acceptable in Indian society for a girl and guy to stay together without marriage.Because In India Marriage is considered Sacred.And having kids without mirriage is out of question.

Well., to live with someone you love you dont need a certificate called marriage. But when you look at india as a society its been made a must for generations. But i feel that slowly many are breaking away from the traditions

No, for me its not a good idea. Not because of society doesn't accept it, may be its mind set due of traditional environment in which I brought up.I don't oppose others, who think its right. Ofcourse love don't need any tag,but a bond of marriage surely adds in love.

If you really love someone and want to spend the rest of your life with him/her then whats the harm in marrying.Why do want to give a chance to the society to talk about you...? marrying is not tagging yourself to someone,you can still live the way you want.Marriage completes ones relation.

i dont think it a good idea, and also in india its not possible to live in the society without marriage, i think marriage is a bond which keeps you together even though you have some difference in you, so with out marriage living together might cause you problems anytime

I dont think you need a marriage tag on it at all. And who says society wort accept it? I think society accepts it more now than ever before. My fiance and I have been together 7 years...not married no tags no papers nothing. We have a joing banking account share a car and apartment our finances and are about to get a house we even have 2 children together...nothing is different from a married couple other than the piece of paper saying we are married. IF anyone has disagreed with me and the way I live my life they've not said so openly. Its common these days to see couples together without being married. I think its very much the norm now.

I think that nowadays staying together without marriage is something normal!Why?because before making such a step,getting married,you have to know your partner very well!

society won't accept it? that depends on where you live man. If you're in india it's possible that it's not something people like much. But in most places in europe and north america it's seen as something very normal and common nowadays. Obviously there are always people who don't like it, but it's impossible that everyone agrees in something. I think it's cool if two people want to live together without marriage, after all...give me a reason against it...i cannot find any from a rational point of view, all the cons against it are based on prejudices.
