marriage is death… yes, i agree. i just rounded the 2-year mark (anniversary). i feel like my life came to a halt two years ago. and it isn’t that my partner isn’t great… he is. but i miss my life. MY life, as a single woman. i had more fun. i had more sex. i had more of what i needed, in every way. i am glad i tried this though– so i will never wonder what i missed.

Marriage is not an institution. It’s a disease that has been encoded into mitochondrial(carried by females) DNA, causing all carriers to try to infect non-carriers(males) with the notion that having only one mate is a good idea, as is the idea of “committing” *coughcough* to a woman who will one day have saggy milkbags and be pear-shaped when you’re in your prime.

Here’s the simple truth:
All women want alpha males. All men want to mate with as many biologically superior(pretty,healthy) women as possible. Alpha males get many women. Alpha males don’t want ugly women. Most women can’t get alpha males, and settle for beta males. Beta males can’t get many women, and settle for an biologically okay female. Both SETTLE for what they perceive to be a good deal. How to ensure that since you don’t get your dream deal, you at least get your best deal? Thaaaaaaaaaat’s right folks, dress the Merc with bouquets and get fleeced by the photo studio.

[...] “So what is the point of getting married?” you wonder, especially if you are not married. Well, as every young couple will tell you, the point of getting married is to stop everyone from asking, “So when are you getting married?” [...]

[...] Yesterday coincidentally, I came across minishort’s post on “Why marry” and the many different views about marriage. I personally left a comment saying, I think marriage is a death sentence. That may be a little bit hard to digest yes and no doubt it is purely my personal opinion. Yet yesterday evening at my cousin’s place (she happens to be married btw) we had this rather interesting conversation about the whole marriage hoo-haa, which slightly altered my views about it, not entirely but maybe just a little little bit.

if you have to ask yourself why get married, than you are not ready to get married.

Marriage is about commitment and faith. To Take this giant leap of faith and say that no mattter what I’ll be with you and love you, till death do us part.

Beauty will fade
Money will come and go
But my love for you will be eternal.

can you promise that ?

Yes, Caroline … after more than 30 years of being married I can say 100% that it’s no longer ‘membara’and that it’s not a bed of roses and lovey dovey all the time either. I can be quite a b_____ at times and I do NAG .Hubby has his quirks too. However, we still hold hands; we still tell each other how much we love each other; we stil go shopping and watch movies together and we still have the occasional SPATS. Marriage = commitment to love and honour each other in ‘good times and in bad’ … and if two people are committed to this, things will be more than OK . Gosh! I’ve rambled on tooo much. So sorry.

I once read this joke:

To avoid being asked “When’s your turn?” again and again, ask you aunts the same question during funeral.

But I never did.

Marriage is something beautiful and something sad, where you won’t be staying with your parents anymore. Those who are ready to commit will somehow reach the marriage phase. Sometimes when you go to shopping complex, you’ll see old couples still holding hands, watch movie and do things together. Isn’t that sweet? To me, when you’re in 30 or 40 years of marriage, love is not as “membara” as once was, communication is more like it.

The point of getting married is to stop having to ask yourself, “What is the point of getting married?” and move on to the more important questions, like “Who’s going to do the laundry today?”
