I don't have anything against it, but it's just not for me at this point in my life. Right now I live a life of true independence. A total and uncompromising freedom I do enjoy. I get to do what I want, when I want, how I want and with who I want. Free to explore without limitations. Total control of my time; no checking in, negotiating plans. I can make spontaneous decisions without any relationship labor. It's great I love it. Maybe reality will kick me in the ass a decade from now, but right now I don't want anything to change.

@PrincessVelvet so whats in marriage that now that you have "freedom" you think marriage would've disturbed it
Also with regards to intimacy/sex....how are you able to navigate around it ,since you'll need to either be having casual sex or that you stick to one specific person who may not see it as a serious commitment but just fun

I was never cut out for marriage…
I am married ...it's not for everyone...but it's not something I'd do again ...with marriage...it is hard work and both people need to.be all in to working out any problems that will occur ...if not ...it just won't work ...people change ...even in a marriage...it takes someone to allow space to grow in that marriage and not everyone is ok with that change ....

It would take an incredibly rare connection and more for me to even consider marriage. I refused to marry my children’s father and I will NEVER regret that.
SilentObZerver · M
@MellyMel22 if i am to understand your point , you had no serious connection with your children's father....?
Also per what i have experienced i feel people intimacy/sex is about having connection with one person you feel safe around and attracted to....
So since you are not married to anyone..how do yoi cope with intimacy?

Depends who you marry.
If she has a 7+ digits bank account and wants to pull me out of the workforce to bring me to spas, hotels, ski resorts it'd be dumber to remain single

@Elessar lol
So basically your fear about marriage is more about losing money and not necessarily the personality of the person?

I almost got married but it didnt go through. Not sure if i will ever marry now. Everything i worked hard for can be at least half taken if she decided to leave. If i had someone who was there to help build when I was starting off than yeah. However that never happened.
SilentObZerver · M
@empanadas hmmm....so its about the laws and the fear of losing everything you built from scratch?
empanadas · 31-35, M
@SilentObZerver yes sir, no point for me
Bumbles · 56-60, M
I’ve been happily married 30 years, but it’s not for everyone. To each their own…
SilentObZerver · M
@Bumbles how did yours work?
I think many may want to take a cue

@SilentObZerver We were, and remain, each others priority and we raised a family. Also, patience, politeness, taking accountability, and not taking the other for granted. In the end, some luck you chose the right person!

Is Marriage for only Christians?
And also there are a litany of Christians including pastors who have had broken Marriages or divorced
Some are also still in Marriage despite the toxicity and hostilities they are experiencing for just the mere fact that they dont want other Christians and even "unbelievers" to judge them of having failed at Marriage

Just because it's not for you, it doesn't mean it's stupid. What does it say about you, when you conclude that only the option you approve is legitimate and everything else is either societal pressure, social fear, or stupid.
At least wait until you're an adult, and can form complete sentences, before you condemn the rest of the world.
