Well most of you already know, but I was married. Not anymore. Been divorced for quite some time now and therefore single. (But dating someone long term again.. haha)
Anyways, with my ex, I had been with him for 10 years total. Only married for about 9 months of that before I finally called it off for good.
All I can say was marriage wasn't what I thought it would be. And I'm in no rush to get married again anytime too soon. Guess you could say I'm jaded on the idea. Before it had some romanticism to it. That thought of riding into the sunset with the one you love. DAMN DISNEY!!
Really, living with a person is the same thing to me. Theres nothing romantic about the thought of being owned by someone via a piece of paper. At least not to me, anymore..

Well I'm currently in a relationship with someone. Been together for almost 6 months and it's a very good strong relationship. Even though me and her haven't met yet, we plan on being together since she'll be moving real close to me. (really excited about that). I'm 20 and she is 16. 
I do believe in marriage, and hope that one day I will get married. I guess I'm just an old fashioned kind of guy that believes in marriages.

Getting married is a serious decision and commitment to make, that can change your life forever. Of course I do believe in marriage, but I think living together will give you a heads up of how ready both of you are for that big decision.

I've always grown up wanting to get married....have a big wedding and being with that one person that I can call my "husband" . To me it's important....something i wouldn't want to just give up wanting. Nor do I want to settle for just "living" with that person forever. Which the paper, a lot of you might say isn't going to do much but to me i guess it's just the thought of marriage! I've seen my parents happily married for 34 years now and I want to know what that feels like....I want to share that with someone just like my parents shared that with eachother.
