Title: Sanctity of Marriage
Post by: Adam on January 14, 2011, 02:45:58 PM
What is this? Do you believe in it?

I find it hilarious when people go on about this kinda thing, especially religious people (which they usually are, I think)


I think this is fucking funny:

More people should do stuff like this

imo The government should stay out of marriage altogether

I met someone that did this for career purposes. The only difference was that they both were gay. He had his male friends, and she had her female friends, both carried on their relationships very discretely and made appearances as a couple when situations demanded it. Both were very well off financially.


Marriage to me is a contract. I don't really believe in it, but I guess it serves a purpose for some.

As for sanctity, I think it's all up to what a person feels is sacred to them, for some it's, love, religion, a good life, or money. It's their lives, let them choose.

From personal experience sanctity in marriage is extremely important to me.  My father cheated on my mother several times.  What he did not realize was that he was also cheating on his children.  Time spent with them was time taken from us.  His dick was more important than my sister and me.

One of the reasons I said yes to Prince Albert was that I was very sure that he and I had the same views on the sanctity of marriage, namely yes.  And yes we did discuss fidelity in marriage while we were dating.

I agree with you, but not because either of my parents cheated on the other.

Like you, I made sure that my husband and I saw marriage in the same way.

BTW, what is up with the bride's eyebrows?  They look like they were drawn on with a crayon by someone with shaky hands.

It is "art" to them probably.

I believe in the sanctity of marriage but things haven't turned out so well for the marriage I am in. I do hope that someday we can sort things out and get back together but for now we are separated. I can't bear to take the ring off my finger like GA has, though.

Marriage means what you want it to mean, for those people it was obviously a joke


I was married for 4 years  ::) Im still married, actually, only on paper... it means nothing to me now. It meant somthing a few months ago, though.

what does that mean ?

it's meaningless

Let's the kids have their fun, I just wish it were easier to get a divorce.

This is how I'll put it - this is marriage in a nutshell


"first you try to fuck it
then you try to eat it
if it hasn't learned your name you better kill it before they see it"

-MM


unless you're only doing it so someone makes a newspaper article about you  ;)
