Most of them will just end up getting a divorce or live with a human being they do not like to live with, but by then they will be even more afraid to be alone. Isn't it more sane to live together, love and breath together without involvement of lawyers?

Is it to make breaking up longer AND expensive?


Oh I just remembered a nice quote about relationships "Are you going to be sane, or not lonely?"

I think it's because people WANT to believe love exists for them, they want to have their life go like a movie and no matter how many times they fail miserably they still keep trying. Humans are not logical creatures, we realize it hurts and we keep trying to do it, the general population is a bunch of addicts in constant pursuit of a fix.

People get married because they realize they're 25 and they haven't had kids yet, so they need to start thinking about it, so they hop on the first person that gives them a second glance and force it to work through sheer will power.

harpy:
Hm, even I know love do exist. It might not be all that romance and all that stuff, but still it's there.

I just do not see what love have to do with marriage, well beside ruining the love.

I understand back in time when people had their imaginary friends in form of God/Gods they had to do stuff like marriage, but now its just kind of stupid.
I do understand that back then they was afraid to be left alone with the kid and so on. But now one can get a peace of paper saying - "yeah, this is your baby - pay up",no need for another paper saying - "you belong to me and only me". As if that means anything.

I get it if one wants to change surname, that is if the one person have is horrible beyond comprehensions, but even then there is simpler solution.

And what idiot gets so desperate at age of 25 when life just begins, well beside ones with imaginary friends, can not hold these responsible need to blame their upbringing or idiocy to believe that believing in god should be regulated by some kind of old fashioned code of morality.

Garret02:
How exactly marriage ruins love? If two people really love each other then marriage doesn't change anything except female surname. Well it changes your material situation but for the better. Eg if you're not married and your significant other dies without last will, you get jack shit. Hell, even with last will the asshole part of his/her family will get a bunch of lawyers and make it so the will doesn't count because "he/she was not in his/her clear mind when writting the will" or "was made by the significant other" or something. And I'm speaking with experience here because some asshole part of my grand grandfather canceld his last will because they weren't satisfied with what they got.

You might be surprised... The amount of people I know at that age or younger, think they need to hurry up and get married.

I don't understand it.

Not long ago wearing pink and flamboyant clothes was the sign of manliness, since you had the balls to do it.
