Changes to Monogamy... I'm scared

Okay. So far I've had one relationship, currently and praying for marriage. Now I'm seeing changes where being in an open relationship is accepted and polygamy might be legalised and accepted widely. So if this happens, no one can be accountable for being dishonest and "cheating" will be outdated. ....
Yeah.....I want no part of this. :-(

I guess I'd have to ask what do you expect out of a marriage? Sex, Financial security? Love forever? Children?
Someone to care for? None of these are guaranteed. I was married from '83 to '97. About the third year of our marriage things went south and I ended up as a single parent. Too tired to recite it all but I'm just saying that be darned sure that the person you are itching to get hitched to is sane. Family can be an issue. Money and kids can become issues... Health. It's a real challenge. I've not remarried. I do have a friend and we share a dog. She has her place and I have mine. No kids between us and she's never married. I asked three or more times but she's good she says. There's no sex but then we're both older now and it's not really possible anyway. I wish you luck but just be careful. Remember, 40% of marriages end in divorce...but 60% end in death!
