What is fascinating about marriage is why anyone wants to get married.

I am hoping this is my year to have children. I understand that I am possibly more European in my views of marriage. I am not going to say I'm not going to get married but it's not my priority.

If one is going to change the definition of marriage to be quote 'same sex ' then there is absolutely no valid argument constitutionally or rhetorically you can make against multiple people getting married. These are radical social changes.

Marriage is something that needs to be worked on every day. I don't know if I'm the one to give marital advice since I've only been married for a little over a year but marriage is certainly easier if you are open trusting and loving.

And in a marriage you can't TRY and be married. You're married or you're not married... as far as I'm concerned.

There are many things that keep me from getting married. But there will be a time when marriage makes sense to me.

Is marriage for ever? I think you get married with the intention that it will be but who knows?

I was born to be married. I just feel comfortable there. I love the idea of being partnered for ever. I love my girlfriend we've been best friends since I was 18. There's not a thing we haven't been through except for marriage... We've had talks about what we would name our kids since we were in our 20s.

Straight couples don't have to be monogamous to be married or married to be monogamous. Monogamy no more defines marriage than the presence of children does. Monogamy isn't compulsory and its absence doesn't invalidate a marriage.

I didn't think marriage worked. I thought everybody who was married was secretly miserable - that it was something they just put up with for their children.
