| Re: Marriage I'm one of those kinda folks who would only consider it if it felt right.
Suppose it entirely depends on the kinda relationship you're in.
I think to a certain extent though the whole marriage thing seems kinda out-dated at times, to me anyway. Like I says though, if it felt right for the situation, I would be for it.

| Re: Marriage To be honest, I don't think I'd stay in a relationship my whole life with one person if I didn't see myself marrying them.

I can tolerate anything from Big Brother to Desperate Housewives, but shows like Dragons Den and The apprentice are literally unwatchable to the point where I feel repulsed by the concept of living in a society that would elevate this as entertainment.

| Re: Marriage I too would like a £2000 dress. If I need to get married to justify this, then so be it.
Seriously though, I think me getting married will probably depend on the guy I end up being with at that point, personally I'm not too fussed about it either way, so it would probably end up being dependent on whether he felt stongly about getting hitched. |

| Re: Marriage I got married three years ago and we split up last year. I'd quite like to do it all over again but I'd make sure I was 100% certain that I was happy instead of being 75% happy and thinking that the other person will change. As it is, I'd give anything just to have my boyfriend live closer to me rather than 400 miles away  |
