[PokeCommunity.com] magic conch shell will I ever get married?


Marriage to me is a shackle that I don't need. All I want from my SO is for us to live with each other in a peaceful manner, & nothing more. All marriage proposals will be turned down without pause. & if she's adamant about wanting a family, she'd better look elsewhere.

I'm really only quoting to steal the gif.

Really, though, I agree completely.

  • I don't want our love to be validated by a contract.
  • On that note - if 20 years from now we split up for whatever reason, I'd like to do that as easily as possible. Go our separate ways as individuals, not split everything we both own in half just for one of us (or both) to inevitably get screwed.
  • As an atheist, I don't have any spiritual/moral beliefs regarding marriage. (I've only ever dated atheists or agnostics, so it's never been an issue.)
  • I don't want a family. No kids. Ever. I have cats.
  • I was going to mention my adoration for my last name as a factor, but everyone I've ever dated has told me they'd be happy taking mine because they prefer it over theirs..
  • I realize there's other ways of doing this, (obviously, there's other cultures), but I hate jewelry and the whole 'engagement ring/wedding bands' tradition has always been a real turn off to the idea. xD
Doesn't mean I'm against monogamy. I still want to find that one person to spend the rest of forever with.. I just see marriage as a monumental waste of time and money, especially if they have a big, fancy wedding.
I dunno. I don't see any real need to 'proclaim our love' with a ceremony and some paper documents. Maybe the part involving an open bar.. Frankly, I don't even see how any of those things correlate to love.

To each their own, and whatnot. I mean, I don't want weddings to stop happening or anything.. I'd still be willing to profit off that tradition. I'm a horrible person. {XD}
 
I do. (get it?)

I don't have any spiritual reasoning or anything, but for me marriage is kind of like that final step in a relationship that sort says out loud and clear "we want this to be forever and barring something terrible happening it will be".

I dunno I guess marriage and family is just a part of the dreams I hold for my future - especially if that means it will be with my current SO.
 
I would like to get married. Not right now nor in the near future, but eventually. It's one of the things about my future I've been sure about for a long time. I want to start a family someday.

I wanna get married and have one of those typical suburban family with a wife and one son and one daughter and a cat and a dog and a white picket fence and maybe a goldfish. At least when their kids. Before that, I wanna live in a city above a store in a small one bedroom apartment. And when when I'm old I want to move to the countryside with rolling hills and winding roads and miles separating the houses.

This exactly! I'd stay in the city first, due to its convenience since everything is there. When I get married, I'll move to the suburbs since it's a better environment for raising kids. I just want a really happy, normal, average suburban family when I get married and we never have to worry on how to pay our bills and we're just one happy family. :3

But yeah, I want to get married in the future. I guess it's probably because I'd like to raise a child? But I do want to spend my days with someone. :)
 
Yeah I wanna get married :) I don't want a typical family life though, I'd maybe have a child, but it'd take some convincing.
We'll live a super beautiful life in a quaint town with wooden houses, go through some ups and downs you know the whole thing, then we'll grow super old and I'll die and he'll strap a load of balloons to our house and fly to South America live by a pretty waterfall <3
 
Would love to get married one day. I'm the typical girl who dreams of having kids, a great husband, comfortable house, and overall just having a wonderful lifestyle in the future. Sometimes I scare myself into thinking that I'll be forever alone because at 20, I've only had one relationship. Often times I wonder to myself if I'll ever be able to get into a stable relationship with someone who I could potentially see myself spending the rest of my life with \: Either I'm picky, or people think I'm intimidating ;;
 
I'd like to get married someday, but it's not a rather huge priority for me right now. Currently, I don't believe my girlfriend and I are at the stage yet despite being together for two years now. Even if we were engaged, it's wouldn't be for another two years at the very least. Honestly though, I don't even have a clue what married life would be like. I'd like to think it'll just be the same, but with maybe a kid here and there.
 
Sure. Why? Well why not? I don't really hold anything against it. Just some of the people that do it.

It's illegal though so..sucks for me!
 
Probably not.

I get bored pretty easily, even with people. If I saddle myself to one woman emotionally and physically, I'd worry I'd miss out on what others had to offer.

Plus, marriages these days are fragile; the American Psychological Association estimates that 50% of marriages fail. If that isn't a failed institution that's not worth investing in, I don't know what is.
 
Marriage is just a form of dating that is super-restricting, expensive to get out of, and even more expensive to initiate (not mention sustain >.>), and since I hate relationships, I doubt marriage will ever happen. Kudos to anyone who can sit through it, but the thought of spending my life with one person only is dull and sounds like it could get repetitive easily.
