I have never been married but personally I think it is better to be single. Unless of course, you are weka, needy, clingy and need the security blanket of a lifetime companion, a companion who has a very high chance of cheating on you.

No it won't change, I'm happily married. The divorce rate is so high because people get married not knowing what a marriage takes. Marriages and divorces are both to easy to get. If people had premarital counseling they might realize that they don't want to be married to the other person. I would not change a day of my married life to be single again.

being single has a lot of advantages and so does being married. If you're scared to get married 'cause you it might fail, then you just have to bear these in mind:
A. It takes two to tango...whether in a successful or a failed
marriage. There should be a conscious effort from both the
husband and the wife to make their union work.
B. Don't look for the "better half" , but BE the better half.
C. Ask for God's guidance in choosing your lifetime-partner-to-
be. He must be a God-fearing person.
D. LOVE keeps NO record of wrongs. Deal with the present
problems and resolve them. Forget the past mistakes.
E. Don't depend on your partner/husband to make you whole.
You must be a "whole" person b4 you marry.Otherwise, you
might end up in frustrations, and eventually, a divorce.
It's nice to be married,dear!Keeps us away from sexual sins.
1 Corinthians 7:9-10
9But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
10To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.
(NIV)
God bless you!

I am married and love every minute of it, my husband is my best friend, he was my best guy friend before we ever got serious and got married. We still do a lot of the same things we did before we got married, like it was when we were just dating. I don't think of it as being weak or needy, but the companionship is always nice and it's always nice to have someone special there for you. Not all spouses cheat. Not everyone in every relationship cheats either. Kind of sounds like you have been hurt in the relationship department.

I let the Apostle Paul answer your question.
Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. But I say this as a concession, not as a commandment. For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.
But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am; but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
Now this is what I think... If you plan to have Children then do it and do now. The Sooner…. the better. Why? You still look young and beautiful even when your kids are teens and not like a granny.

why don't you learn to spell 1st? Anyway, why are you so obssesed with marriage. If you don't believe in it and have no intention of getting married move on to a different topic like how to pick up cheap women at clubs wearing a fake wedding ring. You are the one that sound needy. For attention that is...

who hurt you? someone obviously hurt you and you are giving up on marriage. marriage is great when you find the one you love, it is great when you find a friend,a partner that you can spend the rest of your life with. if you find the right person you wont have to worry about that person cheating on you. in your experiences maybe that happened to you but not every girl is like that and you have to get over it. everyone is different.jus because you got hurt doesnt mean everygirl is out there will cheat.i hope you find TRUE love one day, not now because you have so much hate but soon.!!! good luck

Personally, I prefer being married. But that's because I have a great relationship and my husband is a fantastic person. I'd probably have a much different opinion if I'd married a shmuck.

Happily married people live longer.And not all are married simply for security or a need.Some are actually married because the love they share for each other,the companionship and sharing their lives together

than to be unhappily married.
