whatever happened to marrying someone you love? it disheartens me actually the number people i know that say marriage for them is a business relationship.

look man money has nothing to do with it..i simple mean that marriage shouldn't be based on emotion alone..you can love someoen but it dosn't mean that you can live with that person for the rest of you're life..kind of what jingles is saying.

just vbbecause you love someone dosn't mean its gonna work out you need more then just love to make a marriage successfull.


heh i am a money hungry white guy tho

[sweetdreams]

I agree with what you're saying Akeel...I think that the fact that alot of our generation has seen their parents' divorce makes us more skittish about that kind of a commitment, and makes us want to be very very sure of who we are committing to.

I very much believe in marrying for love, but I also agree that you have to be financially secure before a commitment like that should be made. A long engagement is a good answer, because if you know that it's what you both want, you can be together, and still get your collective shit together at the same time...

long engagement?

Sorry, but in my opinion engagements are supposed to be "the time it takes you to plan the wedding". I don't think there should even be a proposal until you know that's the person you want to be married to.

Need time to "get your collective shit together"? Date, move in together, and live commonlaw for as long as you need.

Nothing gives me a bigger laugh than the "8 year engagement"....

^Maybe I should clarify that "long engagement" to me is 2-3 years, tops.

We all have different moral values. This is what is good for me.

i know marriage isnt right for me...although being muslim entitles me to 4 wives....hmm..... :kam:

[linds]

id say marriage isnt for someone who cant spell it.

[Mc*Phee]

In my opnion, Marriage, getting married, and being engaged is different and means different things to everyone. There is no right or wrong or a specific time to wait. Its whatever feels right for you and your partner! Personally... I want to get married...but not right now lol, and i want a bunch of kids too!!

I couldn't agree more.

It takes more that love to have a successful relationship PERIOD, never mind a marriage. If you love one another, but have different goals for the future, or just different opinions or personalities (ie. one of you likes to go out and party with friends, the other likes to stay home, etc) then it probably won't work out unless both parties are willing to make huge sacrifices.

hey.....
i guess you just have to have the right feeling.....i've been going out with my girlfriend for 3 years......we broke up for 9 months we both did our shit.....and yet after that time we wanted to be together......and well i'm 22.......and we got ingaged on easter...and getting married in Decemeber (Civilian Wedding) then traditional Church wedding in June.......and it feels awsome........so....if you love a person...and you feel it right.....then i dont see why there should be a time limit.......well atleast thats my opinion.........peace
