I think the #1 reason ppl get together is fear of being alone..agree or disagree?

Question

In all honesty you don't REALLY know the person you start a relationship with inside and out when you get together.Physical attraction usually brings you together and after awhile you tell yourself "I love them".How many times have you told someone "I love you" only to regret it later?I think people want stability and someone to wake up with in the morning..tell their hopes and dreams to..and when that person smiles and listens AUTOMATICALLY its love...whatever...another question...people change ALL the time you are not the same person you were 5,10 years ago why is it society tries to push"marriage" long relationships on ppl? I bet if you poll a thousand ppl who have been together 5 or more years more than half would want out if they were being honest..

quikzip...thats my point one day you can "experience" so-called love the next month be apart and with someone new...too many ppl stay with someone because they feel guilty about leaving..I say if your not happy chances are your just wasting your time LEAVE!!!!!!!

divorce lawyers are rich beacuse so-called "true love" ended

sean t EXCELLENT response...Financially its tought to make it on your own

Answer 1

Honestly, since divorce rates have hit around 50%, I don't know why people bother getting married at all. I think it could have a lot to do nowadays with the fact that it's damned near impossible to own a house or to live comfortably unless you are married with someone else who has a good job. You can combine salaries and afford a slightly more comfortable lifestyle, at least until children get into the picture, then a different set of issues arise.

I think people still get together for love and amorous reasons, but I'm not sure people are too based in reality anymore, either. At the slightest hint of trouble in a relationship, a lot of people jump ship and run for the hills. They are under the impression that everything rides like a dream seen in the movies. I've had two relationships fall apart because the other person was always comparing our relationship to some crap in a movie. Sorry, I'm not Leo Dicaprio, and, guess what...we're not on a sinking ship!!!

Answer 2

That is why after my divorce I tried my best to build a life I was happy with alone so that I would not just jump into a relationship because of lonliness and find myself with another mess.
This is the mature best way to do it.
Then if you decide to be with someone it is because you enhance one anothers world in some way that makes it better to be with them instead of alone.
Make that happy life for yourself and then if you do find someone else that is mature enough that they have done this,, count your blessings!
Happiness is the responsibility of YOU not some magical other person, if people accepted this and acted on it,, you would not see so many unhappy married folks.

Answer 3

I do think that people are out there looking for a relationship, but that is the whole point.The point of getting into a relationship is for comfort, love, stability, and companionship.However, we get into a relationship looking for love but sometimes its just not there.Thats why some relationships only make it one date, others months, and others years.It just depends on the two people.However, I have been friends with my husband for 17 yrs(since childhood), in a relationship for 10 yrs , and married for 7 yrs......and I wouldnt want out.

Answer 4

When I met the man I love we both had other realtionships so niether of us were alone at all. We ended those realtionships and started ours not because we didn't want to be alone nor because of sex, but because we didn't want to be without each other and the deep connection we had.
True love isn't about marriage, or divorce.
True love is about putting that one persons every need above your own.

Answer 5

I RATHER THINK THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD ASSUMPTION,..I've been married 5 times,...I thought I was in love and then my ideas of love changed and so did my ex's ideas. people do change over time, stereotypical saying apply in these situations, men marry women hoping they will never change, women on the other hand marry a man hoping they can change him,....somehow these things dont go together well.

Answer 6

I doesn't sound to me that you know the meaning of being in love. It is different than just loving. When you experience this, then you will know - very clearly.
