Married for 15 years and we still tell each other where we are and what we do and No they shouldn't get mad but they always will but they will get over it and they still love ya . It's good that you let your spouse know what you are doing just in case something bad happens or what if your spouse wins a million dollars wouldn't you want to know right away? There's always a what if and it's better to know and to be prepared than to wonder what the hell happened.Just in case it's your last chance to say I love you.

I prefer marriage over just living together. It tells me he loves me enough to commit to being together for the rest of our lives. To stand before God, family and friends and declare his undying love for me. It's the only way for me.

Makes me wonder if the guys who are in favor of it would be in favor of sharing their Wives with other men as well.\n\nAfterall it should go both ways.\nSomehow I am doubting the guys would be in favor of that :)

I am not positive what you are asking.  Are you asking if it is human nature for a woman to want a husband to be social and a man to want a wife to be more of a home-oriented person?  If so...\n\nAbsolutely not. It is true that people who grow up together in groups(we all do--that's what your community is, a group) often have alot in common, but there is still a good deal of variety everywhere.  Also, it should be remembered that what people want and what their group allows or encourages them to do are not always the same.

taking care of a family is a full time job in itself.  a marriage is  an equal partnership.  If both people work then both split the household responsibility.  Either way both partners should have a say in the money. Your full time job is your family. if you were working outside of the home he would need to help you with the household stuff.  Equal partnership.

In high school and when I was single, I had more guy friends.  My best friends were women though.  I think I had more guy friends because I liked the attention and flattery without having to be committed in a relationship.  \n\nNow that I'm married, I have more girl friends...I get all the attention and flattery from my husband!  I can relate to women more...especially women who are married and/or with kids.\n\nMy husband doesn't have girl friends and I don't have guy friends...unless they're mutual friends of ours.  It relieves us both of making the other feel uncomfortable.

I'm married and I don't envy single people. I don't pity them either, but my relationship is right for me. The people that envy others either do not appreciate what they have or cannot confront their own happiness to make a change.

Maybe you are referring to a "live-in" relationship, where the couple lives together?

I found my next door neighbor was my soul-mate.  We will be celebrating 9 years together in July, we've been married for 8 and have 2 beautiful kids together. We started out as "just friends".  We would just sit around, listen to music and talk.

I have a pretty open family, so no, I have not suffered any kind of prejudice.  No, I did not regreat living with my hubby before we got married, in fact, I'm glad I did.  It's as close to marriage as you can get.  You just have a legal obligation to them after you marry, so it is somewhat different.  I would suggest to my son that he lives with the girl he wants to marry before doing so.  You learn so much being around someone 24/7.  Even if you hang out at the other's house everyday... It's different

marriage is between a man and a woman.  bottom line.

No. It's not fair to the person you are married to. Why not be with who you want to be with and let your wife find someone who truly loves her. She'll be upset at first, but you will all be happier in the long run.

Yes, as it will chance normally throughout life...not just because of marriage. Time, weight, pregnancy, illness. It's not like they say 'husband and wife' and *poof*...They've changed..come on.

Not mates or spouses necessarily (though I wouldn't judge those that do) but how about just sharing all our resources with others.  Some have lived their lifes w/o money and with a tremoundously positive attitude, found others shared all with them...ergo: Peace Pilgrim.

Yes, very much so.  Not a complex situation here.  Have such types married and lived a long life together.  Yes.  But let's look at quality of life here.  You do best in your comfort zone.

Marriage.  Sadly, even that isn't 100% secure for some.
