Inked_Nerd:

I would have agreed with some things you said had you not made the comment about the OP coming/being from and unhappy/broken home. If you don't share the same opinion as the OP, then jut say that--there was no need to say that about the Op, especially if you know nothing of her life and family. All you've done is showed that you're bias towards this this topic. Even if she did come from a broken/unhappy home, that doesn't necessarily mean that she would have such feelings towards marriage. I don't come from a broken or unhappy home yet I share similar sentiments as the OP.

My apologies for my earlier assumption: I made it because it seems to hold true in the majority of cases I have counselled. But the other possibilities exist within the limits I provided: Girls/Guys with bad relationships just give up on everything, changing sexualities, or pure wantonness or youthful lusts.

Marriage is NOT compulsory. Not even according to the Bible. It is the reason a man/woman chooses to do so that counts.

In most cases, it is because they have thrown away all forms of decency and morality.

Can you please elaborate on that last line?

Extremely overrated.

Some people want to die all in the name of answering Mr. and Mrs.

Better to stay alive and enjoy your life than be living in bondage all in the name of marriage.

Agree with the OP,
mystiqueem:

In fairness the OP did start with: I'm not married so what I say here is not conclusive,

Personally, I think the PRESSURE to settle, is the problem.
When one takes time to search for the ONE, every other thing just falls into place.

MY OPINION  grin cheesy cheesy
I believe thats what the OP means

What kinda marriage exactly is being referred to here?

1. Monogamous or polygamous?
2.The one that is for life or the one where you can divorce?
3. The one where I have to move out of the family house if I have irreconcilable differences with my partner or the one where I can chuck my wife's suitcases out if she burns my food?
4. Any other permutation and combination of order or disorder that I can't even begin to imagine.

Blanket statements like this are asinine and indicate no depth of thought whatsoever, life is too complex for such oversimplification.

Virtually each situation would be different, only GOD knows all.

“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” - Hebrews 13:4
