I'm assuming that you are getting these comments from older relatives? Our society is currently in flux and it no longer behooves women to marry young like it once did. Women are more and more often to be the ones to put off getting married because many women see marriage at a young age as a trap into domesticality.\n\nI mean, who really wants to have to hold down a job, do the majority of the household chores, do the majority of the child care, and then have to deal with the husband acting like his wife is really his mother? I mean even the most responsible men don't seem to know how to eat a healthy meal (pizza is NOT a food group!), how to scrub a toilet or wash a load of laundry (or how often such tasks need to be done), or how to write a grocery shopping list or a menu for a weeks worth of meals. \n\nI say, you go girl! Marriage is a raw deal for women. Men definately got the better end of the marriage agreement!

You would be surprised at some of the reasons some people marry. But being able to tolerate them is a priority. \nStrange. LOL

Hi there , \n\nI understand your frustration. Every family are dysfunctional in some ways and when there is a crisis, like you mentioned, the stress just builds up and family members disagree. It's almost worse that they're your family because they can truly act like themselves, which often brings out their worst, or so it seems. But I believe everyone has a good intention, it's just that everyone thinks they're right and aren't willing to consider others' opinion.\n\nIt's a sign of selfishness and immaturity but hey, there will always those people and you've just got to deal with it, ya know?\n\nI hope everything works out sweetie :)

you can destroy your two families if both parties are married. its not worth the risk. work on the marriage you have and you wont need to look elsewhere.

The secret of family happiness is..........JESUS. \nWithout Him happiness is a lost cause. \nIn Him there is happiness, peace, and love. \nI could not full love my husband or my children until I accepted the love of Jesus. I know this might seem lame and stupid to you and everyone else who reads this but this is true and very real. Just try it and I guarantee you will get the answers you're searching for. Feel free to e-mail me back. God Bless You!

anything worth doing is worth fighting for... who cares if there is a mix... are you happy? Are your children happy? My family hates the man I married, and his family hates me... everyone seems to think that they know what is best... we love eachother, our son is fantastic, well rounded. We are a happy family and have been for the past 6 years... goes to show that sometimes the world is wrong... go figure

I think you answered your own quetion to some extent but just to add to it. It's simply greed and curiosity couples r not satisfied with wat they have, they want more whether it be money, sex you name it. And sometimes they marry for all the wrong reasons.

because their F-lazy and don't give a dam and think their man will take care of everything, just don't care about anything\nexcept the ones that stay home take care of the kids and house until the kids go to school or a good stay at home wife and mother that cares about her family that is not a person like the above

Because all people not just married people have become so self centered and self absorbed they believe it's their RIGHT to do whatever makes THEM feel good regardless of the consequences to them or others.  People are so cavalier about marriage and sex anymore.  Nothing is more important to people than their own twisted wants and desires.

Some people are so narrow minded that is far as they can think. Marriage and children. They do not consider the idea of education, a stable relationship, etc. You are not an old maid by far. And by the way, I love your come back! Good for you, sometimes you have to in a polite way let people know how insensitive and narrow minded they are. God bless

It is okay not to like everything in your love ones lives. This is what makes us unique. Just remember to use good manners and not show loud and rude behavior during the family game watching time. \n\nGood luck and I hope you and your family find something that you can all share in and equally love.

Because family is all about love, respect, protection, and caring for each other.  These things are important but because of the closeness of a family they often get in the way of us being individuals.  Family members do what they do because of the above things and often forget that you sometimes need to experience life for yourself, and the forget that sometimes they are wrong.  Love them anyway though because they are your family.

From past experience it complicates relationships and it is not easy to get along most of the time.  I always go by these wise words... "One family per household" meaning only one family under one roof.  Boyfriend, girlfriend and kids. or husband wife and kids.  Not extra family members that dont include kids and parents.

I dont know why, but it's correct.... But when you realize how important and great that sth was, then you just can&#92;t stand the pain.....   \n\nIt is that people are never happy with what they have. They'll always ask for more coz they won't appreciate the beaty of what they have. In this way, we ruin beatuful relationships/friendships/and more, just  because we want sth better......

It say its the society. People in developed areas are alot different and dont seem as happy as people in underdeveloped areas in life in general. Rude, cheating, cunning thats the trap of the city life. It will swallow you and spit you out. Hence this is what we end up with today. Eg no family time spent together which results in people cheating and fighting with their parters and family memebers... I can be bothered to talk about it as it is a rather depresing subject. All I know is that Id rather live in the old days where you didnt have these problems as often.

No, It's not. It definitely can be termed as a compromise but not prostitution.There might be more than one reasons to marry such a man/woman. As you raised a point about poor countries, some women would do it to help their families. It could be a sacrifice on their part as they feel by compromising on their own selfish qualms of marrying an"ideal" lover, they can, may be open doors of prosperity for their families and their generations to come. On the other hand it could be that they value money more than their own so called "self esteem". Or they prioritize monetary security over, more often failing, love marriages. I think its just a different way of thinking. Just because you can't come to terms with such an idea doesn't make all of 'em hos.
