Post by: drkaje on August 15, 2007, 08:09:29 AM

I'm curious what the opinions will be.
When your of the right age of responsibility (no more hog wild partying, clubbing, going on single vacations to party places where cheating can take place, etc)
When you are finacially stable
When you are job secure
When you know for a fact that you truly love that person and you know that you want to wake up next to that person for the rest of your life.

If you have any doughts....DON'T do it.

Good Qeustion...

I haven't reached that point yet so I guess I don't really know.  I have been propsoed to twice and have declined both times for numerous reasons, all of which I am not sure have any real weight to them.

I would like to hear Laura's and Mike's opinions on this one.  Those two are so very much in love, live together and "have their ducks in a row" makes me curious as why not.  I am not saying they should or shouldn't get married obviously that is their choice, but I am allowed to be curious.

Great answer. I would add to that if you would hang out with the person regardless if you were having sex or not and still want to be with them. Never underestimate someone that can always make you laugh or have good conversations with.

Not to take away from DrKaje's original question but my question is why do we have to get married (the signing of papers and such) in the first place?

I have known many couples that were in long term relationships (living together for 15+ years) and they had great relationships until they got married and everyone of them are divorced today. They all said marriage seemed to put stresses on the relationship that were not there prior to the "legal union".

My sig other and I are currently discussing whether to marry or not to marry since we are both individually secure financially! We don't need vows to be commited and/or true to one another so the question for us is why get married not when?

Hustle Man, do you think that just being legally married really put "stresses" on the marriage that were not there prior?  What kind of stresses?

Do you think it's possible that before they married they had begun to struggle in their relationship and thought marrying would help in some way and then were surprised/disappointed when it didn't? 



My sig other and I are currently discussing whether to marry or not to marry since we are both individually secure financially! We don't need vows to be commited and/or true to one another so the question for us is why get married not when?

We were also both individually fine financially.  I believe our main reason for marrying was that we believed/believe it was what God wanted us to do.

You just know it is right.
There are no rules for love and that "feeling"
I had quite a few girlfriends before my wife, I even moved in with two of them.
But when ever I thought of marriage I felt a since of "DREAD"!!!!
With my wife I just knew, we had been dating for 10 days when I popped the question and she said yes  :D
6 Months later we where married.
We are married 13 years already now with two savages aged 12 and 10  ;)

{giggle} Wild isn't it? A girlfriend of mine went on a date with this guy. He took her to Las Vegas for their date. She had a bit too much champagne, and ended up in bed with him. She had so much guilt about having sex on the first date, that before the weekend was out, ...they were hitched. That was 21 years ago, ...and they are STILL married, ...happily with 5 kids. It still blows my mind.

I think another one that is often overlooked is compatibility. People say that opposites attract but I beg to differ. The more you have in common, the more things you can do together and the more you can enjoy eachother's company. You'll get along great.

Hustle Man, do you think that just being legally married really put "stresses" on the marriage that were not there prior?  Maybe there were but they seemed very happy and able to work out differences but with mine own eyes I saw the relationship deteriorate What kind of stresses Money for one, It seemed as soon as the money came together thats when the complaints started to flow and then of course the challenges of being and staying attracted to each other, you know how couples can forget what attracted them in the first place a side from the sex of course. ?

Do you think it's possible that before they married they had begun to struggle in their relationship and thought marrying would help in some way and then were surprised/disappointed when it didn't?  For some yes, I would say that happened but for many they just couldn't handle the selfessness thats required when you are in a commited relationship.  
We were also both individually fine financially.  I believe our main reason for marrying was that we believed/believe it was what God wanted us to do. I totally agree with you my friend and you know I am a believer but doesn't God recognize our relationship anyway? We committed and entrusted our lives to each other in God's name and presence? Whether we have the paper or not we are making a commitment in God's eyes and I vow to honor her as she vows to honor me!

God may recognize it, ...but without that piece of paper, quite often the state does not,
...and it's the state that both determines and enforces legal rights.

Hustle Man, do you think that just being legally married really put "stresses" on the marriage that were not there prior?  What kind of stresses? Stella, I spoke to one of my friends that divorced shortly after their marriage (FYI 10yrs together before marriage), he told me one of the stresses was the financial burden from the wedding. Get this lol, he told me (I never knew this until now) he took out a wedding loan because her family wouldn't help pay for any of the expenses and he wanted the wedding to be special for her. Needless to say I smacked him across the back of his head lol! Yes financial debt will cause many stresses and I will go out on a limb and say I bet this was the source of many after mairriage stresses in some of the other couples marriages as well (the after marriage debt responsibilty)! It seems that this type of debt can easily turn into a "blame game" but thats just one story I will see if I can dig up more from the others and I would guess they fell into the same trap (after marriage debt).

True in a lot of cases but is marriage more about legal rights than love?

For a Guy:

1. Only after you have really LIVED. So many marriages fail because the dude thinks pastures are greener...
2. Security. Financial, emotional, etc You cant bring someone else into yur life if its not in order in several ways. It WILL fail.
3. Mutual Trust and Respect. Hey, you gonna have to rely on that person making important decisions at the drop of a hat when you ain't there.
4. The Maturity to realise you need to compromise and meet the others needs as well as your own.
5. Kids? Hey thats a whole subject to itself if its in your plans. But all the above better be down pretty good first.

A better answer may be found in looking at why marriages fail?

Very good post.  Based on this I don't plan to get married soon, but honestly I have thought about this lately.  I'm still a young guy but with a girl I have been dating for nearly 3.5 years and everyone on her end is asking what our plans are.  I want to be established in my career and in a house before I get married.  If it were under different circumstances I would wait until I was 30 to do it but I don't know how realistic that is.  Any advice there?   ;D

You dont want to lose a good girl if you got one, there aint that many good ones.

If you wouldnt cheat on her no way, and figure she's the same way then its a good bet.
Its still all hard to say. If  your still into chasing women there's on sense getting married.

Figure on her wanting kids bad by about 33yrs or so. Thats just plain sensable IMO if your planning on kids.
The body starts to unwind a little faster after that.

I wouldn't cheat.  Never have and hope I never will.  She's good but she wants to be done with kids by 30 which is rough.  It's rough when most women have a time frame when they want to get married.  I just don't know if I can work with her "ideal" time frame to get hitched.

She's younger? Time frame aint so stupid once you start tacking on the years. Trust me, the body aint like a bottle of fine wine.
Having children is a terrible toll on her body, (and some all around stress for you both. But kids are great ;))

Two people also need to kind of be on that same timeframe on many levels for it to work easiest.
Ive blown off relationships that would have worked, but we just were not kind of on the same schedule on many levels.  That can be painfull, but if you see a relationship is headed no-where, and both are really looking for a long term thing,,, well, life has some hurts.

Im blown away how many dudes Im seeing w/ much older women these days. Its not my idea of how to set up for a family. Just my 2 cents...

We're the same age.  I'd like to start having kids by 30 and be married a few years before.  She has a different time frame which makes it hard.  It can work but how well I'm not sure. Time will tell.

"Marriage is comprimise". Thats from a old dude I knew who was married to a lovely woman 20 yrs his junior.  ;D 
(Generaly A bad idea IMO from what Ive seen in life. About 7 years younger or so is enough. Big Problems w/ them large spreads in age)

Congrats to you and yours, Cap. Getting married is a huge step. Just make sure that you both have kids when you are ready. Don't just have them for the sake of. Once you have a kid/s, all your free time is DONE. You will have to devote 99% of your time to your child/children. You are both still young so get hitched, enjoy yourselves for a year or two. Go on vacations together, etc. My two pennies.

Oh.....uh...I'd suggest they get premarital counseling (or something along those lines).  When your marriage is good it's fantastic.  When it is bad you feel like a miserable trapped rat.   Why do you think she would enter into a marriage she's not enthusiastic about?

....let's say that a good friend that got proposed to and said yes(more in a '' Ok ''  way), latter confides to you that he/she gets goosebumps just thinking about the arrival of THE day and shows very little interest in the arrangement of the whole thing(the dress, the band etc.), eventhough he/she's been together with that person for 10 years........ how would you deal with it? What would you tell your friend?

I'd tell my friend to have a serious sit down with the man , after 10 years they should be close enough to say things openly and be totally honest.
If my friend said she couldn't do that , I'd tell her to get a grip .
If you can't sit down and really talk , you can't be married.
After 10 yrs in a relationship if it isn't all fireworks it's understandable , but if it's in any way "distaste or dislike" towards the "marriage" , don't do it.
If it is towards the intended partner then , to allow him to go through with it and invest anything further , emotionally , would be more hurtful than pausing it now.

imho

I'm curious what the opinions will be.

1.  When you feel that he & you can be a "team" and neither feel the need to be in control of everything.
2.  When you are 100% positive you want to make him happy (without giving up your own happiness) and be willing to be made happy by him (without slacking off on making him happy)
3.  When you are comfortable enough to communicate openly with him and being open to hear AND listen to him when he opens up to you... and both you respect each other for it.
4.  When you realize he becomes more beautiful as you fall deeper in love with him
5.  When you can truly say that you can live without him, but you'd rather it not be that way (with tears in your eyes cos you really couldn't live without him)
6.  When you can look into his eyes and imagine him naked in 50 years and not feel grossed out
7.  I could go on forever

I guess I'm just a romantic

thoroughly knowing the guy for 10 years, common interests,financial security, age,.....and the fact that she doesn't want to break the man's heart after all these years.

well i may have left out one little thing............after the engagement, she fell for this guy(he'd asked her out a couple of months before but she replied she 'd had a boyfriend) she crossed paths in the gym with and asked him out on a date, telling him that this date has no special meaning, that she is still getting married no matter what, that she just asked him out cause she really liked him.Well that one date turned into an affair.Whenever there was an opportunity she would get together with him and once she even admitted she'd never felt for her fiancee the same way she felt for this guy.She never wanted to think about the day of the wedding.......she knows that her fiancee is a provider, she feels safe with him and she trusts him eventhough he left her once for another woman but came back to her.Maybe it's just me but i thought people were looking forward to the day of the wedding..........any thoughts?

Is this woman merely your friend or are you the one involved w/her?  You don't have to answer if you rather not.

I'd think most people (at least the female) look forward to the day of the wedding yes.

That's funny you say that.. I want a filipino/hawaiian luao wedding on the beach, in a bikini, with a gazebo covering a huge feast of pot luck dishes, poi and a pig roast. No bridesmaids or groomsmen. No fancy dresses or a church. On the other hand, my (hispanic) sweetheart wants an all out spanish grande wedding with the works. I'd rather have a simple exchange of vows on the beach, and walk thru the sand to the gazebo... and party til we fall with our faces buried in the sand next to the pig roast... and nobody remembers the next day that it was a wedding ! !

i know most people love the idea of marriage for the "ceremony" or the "Ritual".

Every one is so keen on planning a wedding (the girl in particular), how many times do u see a stressed out bride to be, "I need to organise a hairdresser, a beautician, a makeup artist, the cake people, i need to plan the flowers" How bout planning a plan B when the marriage goes awkward, not many couples plan there relationships, thats why the failure rate is so high, I know the divorce in Australia is about 48% but in that 52% thats still married i know at the very least 50% are to lazy or broke to apply for a divorce....

the wedding is about the lady, its almost every girls dream to get married, no man at 18-21 says "fuck this life, im sick of fucking random ho's" girls think of there wedding day at 15.

now the wedding is about the bride and groom, but who really is getting all the attention??? unless the bride is fucking ugly that is..and damn it i have seen many ugly brides, married way past there expiry date..there should be a law on ugly people in society, Im serious, if your ugly and fat and u live in the states buy a gun i'll happily paypal you and point that barrel in your mouth and pull that trigger.

Because guys don't care about any of that stuff. Also, we don't read a lot of fairy tales and have expectations about how a big party and being lavished with attention for a few days will make our lives perfect.

Why things don't work out? People are more focused on planning the wedding than their marriage.

WHY? i been to many weddings, the centre of attention is the bride.. remember Weddings are a business, you cant make much $$ off a groom, the only person who say the groom look good is his mum.
How many wedding magazines are based on the Groom?

Im not a chauvanist. of course not all women want to get married, the majority do!! and the ones that dont are fucken stupid, lesbians or just cant keep a man....true story
its rare for a guy to plan a wedding, fuck planning a wedding day, the guy should be financial planning instead so when the bride gets knocked up he doesnt go broke, preparing for school fees, bigger home, new car etc.

any guy at 18-21 that says im sick of fucking random hoes hasnt really fucked anyone, they will settle with anything that can stand the sight of him, FFS which loser of a guy would get married at 21??? unless his ugly and cant pull chicks...this is fact.

Just because the bride has been the centre of attention at weddings doesn't explain to me WHY the bride SHOULD be the centre of attention, or WHY it is HER day. As for the only person saying the groom looks good being his Mom isn't true. Look at Bob & Tasha's wedding. Both Bob & Tasha looked good.

I hate to break it to you, but not all women who don't want to get married are stupid lesbians who can't keep a man. Infact, I'll hazard a guess and say the majority of women who don't want to get married are NOT lesbians and have no problem keeping a man. It's those who can't keep a man that require the state to obligate him to stay.

It seems to me that any guy at 18-21 that says "I'm sick of f**cking random hoes" is someone who has pulled alot of chicks. People rarely get sick of something unless & until they've had alot of it.

This is true and I have had female professors say the same thing, minus the hoes part.  I think marriage is good if you are not too idealistic about married life is going to be like.  Too many people go in thinking the romance level will never fade and that they will not have to work to stay happy.  If you understand that then I would say go for it.

Aside from what she is talking about with regards to the wedding day being a mutual thing, she is legitimately getting mad at you because you are acting like an ass with your comments.  You have a point about the wedding day because most guys try to please the woman on that day because women are told it is a big deal and guys are not. 

Picking a wife isn't about picking the best hole to stick your cock in dude.  If you really want to marry someone and that is your perspective then you can safely bet you will get divorced.  A guy getting married at 18-21 is more immature and inexperienced than anything else, not a pathetic loser who can't get pussy.

With the wedding and marriage you are def correct.  Women spend too much time worrying about the wedding and not marriage and guys who marry young are usually fools, but not because they can't get play but rather because we need to learn more about relationships before we get married.

Your only response is that your work places you at alot of weddings? ??? wtf? How does that explain or justify why?

i dont think Jaguar is getting mad at me, she really believes in her opinion, i believe in mine, i dont mind going back and forth with her.


You're right, ...I'm not getting mad. I'm just thinking you're hardly even 1/2 as intelligent as I previously gave you credit for. I on the other hand do mind going back & forth with you. Someone who makes sense, or has a valid point which I may or may not agree with is one thing, ...but someone who's simply acting like an ass... well, is hardly worth runing a manicure for. Come up with some substance to back up your claims, or accept the fact that you've shown yourself as someone who talks out his anatomy making you an unworthy discussion partner.

You certainly are a glutton for punishment.  how's your memory so far?

PM's heavily editted and blacked out to preserve the confidentiality of the PM's, as well so as to NOT publicly disrespect or invade the privacy of those mentioned in the PM. The important parts are still legible though,
...like when you said I was ten thousand percent right!  8)

I hate to break it to you, but not all women who don't want to get married are stupid lesbians who can't keep a man. Infact, I'll hazard a guess and say the majority of women who don't want to get married are NOT lesbians and have no problem keeping a man. It's those who can't keep a man that require the state to obligate him to stay.

Nothing wrong with wanting to be married or not. To many women it's not a life decision anyway, they just run along and do it without the true meaning some others attach. Married - sure sleep with a guy on the side, or just divorce guy when you're bored, and you were flat broke coming in so are not risking losing assets and may end up better off monetarily. Divorce rates at 40 - 50% in western world and adultery stats show that.

If women can sustain their own high standard of living and will genuinely take vows very seriously [not say it like everyone does ::)] - of course they will view it differently. Not as appealing to marry some scrub, will be far more selective and is in a position to be as well.

I agree with you CQ and I tell my kids the same just as my mother told me; Get your own and be your own. Accept responsibility for your own reactions and be self supporting.

My mother taught me how to cook and clean for myself so when I met a woman I could love her for her and not what she could do for me. DFon't get me wrong I am very old fashioned and don't mind a woman staying home to raise kids and care for the home while hubby does his stuff (Making the money, Paying the bills,  protecting and being the head of the family etc.) but that whole dependency thing sometimes scares me. A false sense of commitment looms on the horizon. My ex was like that (depending on me for everything (She still does for the most part)) I think unless agreed upon vehemently and up front in the relationship, a woman should contribute monetarily if possible.
