Married people separate, not sure if that is the case here though.

marriage is great if you trust each other absolutely and realise that it's the two of you against the rest of the gay uncaring world but that's really not what most marriages are

yeah this is why marriages fail, unrealistic expectations

date somebody and don't live with them. Sex on the reg, they can sleep over when they want, you can sleep over there if you want, and you still get days during the week when you walk around the house naked eating cold hot dogs while watching Flapjack on your phone

Lol that someone who drinks and browses facebook while making you do chores is what some goons imagine marriage to be. Marriages involve a wife not your mom but i can see how some goons would mistake the two

this is why moving in together is the bigger step, it's pretty hard to break up with someone when you realize your rent will go way up and you'll probably have to break a lease and move into a shittier apartment. also it's when you get used to each other's quirks and talk out the stuff that is actually going to be difficult. by the time you get married, all that's pretty much over and been working for awhile, so.

basically if you're having a big wedding wedding, planning the loving thing is the final exam for your relationship to make sure you are ready for the marriage itself

You're required to be separated for a year before you can file for a divorce where I live. I left him in November of 2011 and filed the paperwork a year after that, but apparently I filed the wrong papers. We're both in relationships at the moment. Not legally nor technically cheating where I live.

Lived together for ten years prior to marriage. However that doesn't solve everything, people change over long periods of time, even after marriage.

yeah like the big party and being able to use the terms husband or wife are nice and all but if people just live together forever, it's not like civilization is going to collapse because they didn't sign a legal paper.

we lived together for about a year and a half before tying the knot and i think it was helpful; learned each other's quirks etc. before going in for the long haul. being married does feel pretty nice though, idk what it is. something about it being official.







also, taxes and spousal benefits

being with a married couple that bickers in front of company is definitely one of the most uncomfortable guest situations

The first time I ever got to experience this was like the greatest moment of my life because I felt like such a grown-up. It was like 'oh look honey, those two seemed to be okay when they came in the restaurant with us but now they're having a meltdown and there's no escape! It's romantic though because we're in this ~together~'
