The chains of marriage
#8221607 - 03/31/08 08:43 PM (16 years, 16 hours ago) |

I like to fuck as much as the next guy, but I've seen so many soulless husbands being dragged around by their wife with kid in hand that I just can't imagine my life being sacrificed like that. I have things I want to accomplish in my life, and I just can't do them when my every move is being watched by a woman.
How does the shroomery (Males only I suppose) feel about marriage and the change of lifestyle that it creates?

If you made the commitment, you're bound to the vows you made. I believe that promises are promises.

I love my wifey. I also think she is plotting to kill me. Slowly.

i swear by the fact that to know you need 3 years minimum. 1st year for fire to slow up a bit, 2nd year to learn the faults now that you can see through them, and a third year living together. you pass those three i think youre golden...maybe haha

I love being married. Its the best thing that happened in my life. My wife is by confidant, by side-kick, and my best friend. My life would be much worse without her. No kids for now, so that makes it different than the situation you described.

Having a wife wouldn't be so bad I imagine. Sure it may be a mixed a blessing, but I think overall it'd make life better.
Kids though--fuck that.

I'll have medallions of lamb in a red wine reduction sauce with some baby asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes, and a nice bottle of wine...perhaps an Argentine Malbec. STAT.

Damn, this marriage thing is pretty awesome.
To answer the post at hand, I'll ramble a bit. I'm a child of divorce and both of my parents speak of marriage as if it is some great evil that crept into their lives, leaving only three wonderful children to offset a world of awful memories and bad feelings. This has really sunken in with my sisters, who don't want to get married.
I, on the other hand, totally want to get married and have children. It's not the piece of paper, or the idea of possessing someone...it's the idea of meeting someone I'm so into, who keeps me feeling so alive, a true lover and friend, who I'd actually want to make a commitment to. I don't think marriage has to be a trap or something that sucks the life out of you. A healthy relationship is a healthy relationship.

I'd agree with the 3 years minimum thing. I dated a girl for 2 years and WHOA. Not doing that whole marriage thing for a while.

That's the thing. I've dated only two types of girls. Controlling ones and obsessed ones who wont even yell at you or make their own wishes known. The first ones are strong and I like that, but I am NOT to be controlled. Girls that are kind of obsessive bore me, because I don't even have to try. I'm searching for this best friend or side-kick that some of you speak of. I'm only 19 though, so maybe my feelings will change in the coming years.

Isnt the act of making the commitment really the spirit of marriage? If not it should be.

Asking my wife to marry me was the best thing I've ever done!
My wife is not only the love of my life but is also my best friend and the only person I've ever really felt any deep connection to.
We've been together a little over 13 years, married a little over 8 years, we have a one year old son and although it's been a very tiring year things are pretty awesome.
I think what works about us as a couple is that we've always encouraged each other to be whoever the hell we want to be and do whatever we want to do (within reason) - plus we continue have outstandingly great sex.:)
I consider myself very lucky that we found each other.
Being married is great in my book.

I guess I feel like the poster, I got 3 kids with teh same female and still aint married after 5 years together. I fear it will change something and I wont just be able to disappear without drama and courts, not that I would but I want to be able to I guess?
-------------------- While driving my overpowered car around tight corners like a maniac all my friends yell out. Hey man slow down, we might Wreck. I reply, Shut up, I drive like Dale Earnhardt. They all look around at each other and laugh. Then one asks me. Hey wait, isnt he dead? Well yeah he is I said. Then I drive like Junior I mumble, while I promptly slow down. "Everyday is opposite day. Everything I say is opposite of what you think I am saying. So if I say something and you think I mean one thing it is the opposite of what I am really trying to say. I actually mean another thing other than what you are thinking I am saying. Get it? Good because that's what I meant". "You may defeat me, you may even destroy me, But you will never CONQUER me"!

I know alot of guys have this notion that every girl wants to get married as soon as possible and have kids and so on, but honestly marriage scares the shit out of me and kids. . .we wont even go there! As I see it I'm only 21 and have plenty of time to spend getting to know my boyfriend better and just have fun with that. If a few years down the road we want something more then maybe but why rush into something so young when all you have is time. I feel like nothing good ever comes out of rushing into things. Its always better to give yourself time to know what you really want and make sure you really want it. and to validate my point. . .
. . . just thought I'd throw that in there
