You don't have the faintest idea about marriage, get counseling first!

First of all what do you define as a break?
Marriage is not all about sex or spending 24 hours a day together.
I have been married for 12 years and there are times when we have sex 5 times a week or none at all. It all varies to how we feel or if we are tired or its just not as important. In the beginning usually sex is constant because its new but it slowly dies down a bit.
Also you have to give one another space, I allow my husband to do his thing with his guy friends, play his PS2, watch football without interruptions, just as he allows me time to go shopping alone or accompanied if I like, or just laying alone watching one of my chick flicks.
NO marriage is not all about sex or being face to face 24/7

Marriage doesn't mean you face the same person 24-7. You both have your own lives too, like work, friends, activities, etc. Marriage is being part of each others' lives while having some personal space too.
And you don't have to have sex every day if you don't want to - just say no. (But I must say, I've never heard any unmarried person worry about that part.)
Besides, when you do find the right person, all this won't be a worry. Ideally, you should marry the one who complements you and doesn't feel like a tumour. You sound like you haven't found such a person yet - take your time. When you meet him/her, you'll know it.

you do not sound reddy for marriage.
yes it is most likely a 24/7 thing but if you are tottaly in love with this person and tottaly sure there sould not be a problem. i got married about 2 weeks ago and it is more wonderfull than ever... No you dont have to have sex every day. but why do you ask about it asif it is someting disgusting. it is suppose to be beutiful and to be as a plessure shared between you and your partner. you should only start worrying about a break when the kids come...they never leave you alone not even when you on the toilet.

if you want to stay married 24-7 is not what i would do. My husband is my very best friend in the world, but come on every on needs there time. If you don't get time it will make you nuts, when i need a break i nicely ask my husband if he has anything he has anything he needs to do and he knows to split for a while. Thank god it's hunting season in wva.. Sex is a great thing every day , but olny if you want it, not mandatory on average couples have sex 2-3 times a week, some none at all.

You will probably have to have sex everyday for the first year or two then it fizzles. As for 24/7 time together, you do get a break for work and bathroom. Also you can probably visit your parents without the significant other, they most likely won't like your family. Yeah, it's not at all like on TV but good luck anyway.

if you have a bathroom with doors that lock, you can get about a 15 minute break to take a $hit. that's about it.

well if you want to get married you will like doing that everyday and its not like that. Its not like suffering and trust me when you like someone and you want to get married then you will want to do that.

Wait until you are grown up to think about marriage.
