Marriage

Upon hearing the news that my 23 year old cousin has decided to elope to Cyprus and get married to a guy in the army she’s been seeing long distance for 11 months and never lived with, I just wondered how many of you see marriage in your future?

Re: Marriage

99% of people I see getting married seem miserable, trapped and doomed.

Naming no names, but I am literally the only husband I know who doesn't bitch about what a horrendous fucking bitch he married after I've had a few.

Re: Marriage

Ideally I'd like to get married when I'm about 25/26, then sprogged up at 30ish. But I know that's highly unlikely. And only if I meet the right person, obv, I'm not gonna be some Bridget Jones type just wanting to get hitched to avoid spinsterhood.

My 25-year-old sister's just got engaged after a year with her boyfriend. Usually I'd say that's a bit too soon but those two are ridiculously perfect together.

Re: Marriage

I used to really want to get married but I don't see it as a big necessity anymore.

Plus I wish family would stop asking when I am getting married.

Re: Marriage

I think last night's Apprentice may also have had something to do with this. I just want a big two grand wedding dress, aah.

That’s the first time I’ve ever watched The Apprentice. What a load of unmitigated shite. Horrible television.

Did you really think a TV show about real business people doing real business and trying to get richer would ever be any good?

I don't really see the point in it but if I was with someone who really wanted it then I'd probably do it anyways.
