For me, nothing changed after getting married. It's like being boyfriend/girlfriend living together. We've been married 5 years and don't have kids. I think marriages change when kids are born.

Seriously....the end of your life, come on!! Of course not marriage is a wonderful thing. It is a huge step in a couple's life that leads to a future full of endless possibilities. Of course not all relationships are meant for marriage and this is why we must proceed with caution-make sure you have found the one. One good quote to live by is "all things happen for a reason." Divorce is a reality but still marriage is not a bad thing. If you and your boyfriend love one another and want to get married go for it. I have been with my fiance for approximately 4 years now and we are getting married in March 2007. I see this as the beginning of "my life". I have dreams of being married, being a wife, and god willing a mom some day. In no way does marriage imply life's end to me it is completely the opposite.

I have been married for 13 years and I love it. I partied,dated and traveled a lot before I got married though. There is never a time when I think the grass is greener on the other side. I am happy to have my family and feel fulfilled at this point in my life. I have had some girlfriends who were not happy in their marriage and divorced. After wards, they went crazy doing all the things they wish then had done before they got married. At times, it was destructive and inappropriate - especially when there were kids involved. So to answer your question....
I think getting married is the beginning of a wonderful part of your life, if you are ready for it. It is only boring if you think their is something more exciting somewhere else.

No way does your life end after marriage...at least not if you married the right person for the right reasons. Id ont' see it as a beginning or an end...it's a chapter of my lie.....a pickup on the road I am traveling. Definitely not an end to anything. What would be ending? The only thing that ended when I married was worrying about being alone the rest of my life, being financially insecure, sleeping alone on cold nights, not having someone I could count on all the time.

I dont think its either. I've been happily married for a while and with the same man for over 3 years. I cant imagine my life without him in any way. I think my whole life is getting better and brighter. He is the one who supported me when I was so unsure of going back to college to get another degree. Now that Im doing it, I feel elated to wake up to the same individual that brings me those feelings every day.
BUT...
Before I met him, I was/am a self sustaining woman. I was a complete person and didnt need anyone to complete me. I have a college degree, a good job, my own house... I was already doing well on my own. So being married wasnt the beginning of my life... but certainly wasnt the end of it either.
Good luck in life. Marriage is VERY hard, but also very fun if you let it be.

Getting married is just the beginning of your life. If the person is truly for you, you will want to keep them until the end of it. Talk to God and ask him for direction. Make sure that you wont look back on your marriage and think it was a mistake. It wont be boring. Just being with the person you love will cheer you up. There is nothing wrong with commiting to a person.

It is the start of a great new and exciting journey with the person that you want to spend the rest of your life with. In marriage you know that you have someone that will be there no matter what. Someone who loved you enough and wanted to prove it to you and everyone else so they took a vow in front of god and and family to be with you forever. It is only the end when people get married for the wrong reasons and they then realize that they have made the biggest mistake of their lives.

Get married when you're ready to have kids or you have financial reasons. People place too much value on the institution of marriage and think it's what people do when they love each other. A lot of people rush into it because they're young and have extremely misguided ideals. Don't rush into it. You have your whole life ahead of you and if you're in a loving long-term relationship then your partner isn't going anywhere.

To me, it's just the normal course of events... The middle of my life, if you wish. I've been single, I've been married, I like both, but in the long run I would like to have the companionship of marriage - not the unpredictability of the single life. So, I'm married again now, hopefully for good this time.

It's the end of your single life and the beginning of your married life.
