Do you have positive associations? Do you think of wedding bells, children, happily ever after? Feel free to say whatever comes to mind regarding the idea of marriage.

I'm thinking that marriage for women is just tons of responsibility and more work (like indentured slavery actually). My parents are still married after all these years, my mom is an intelligent, well-educated woman who made more money than my father, but she still came home to clean, cook, wash and pay the bills while my father rode around on his lawnmower. Would I ever marry again, absolutely NOT. I love my life. I come and go as I please, nap when I want, talk to whoever and make no excuses for my behavior to anyone. I have a cat, he is the only man I will ever love.

My marriage association is not good. The only good thing that came out of 10 years of marriage are two beautiful girls. Those I will cherrish as long as I live. They outweigh all the bad things that happened in those 10 years.

Regarding marriage, I feel admiration, love, commitment, children and hopefully happily ever after.

My thoughts on marriage are very negative. I don't see why someone would want to go through all that. I have never seen anything positive about marriage or relationships in general. They're hard to deal with, you get hurt by the other person's insensitivity. I just don't want to have anything to do with them.

I think of Pon Farr, the ancient drive that impels the Vulcan to return home to take a mate, or die. Pon Farr brings with it a neurochemical imbalance that leads to erratic behavior — nervousness, sleeplessness, outbursts of anger and violence... he can even become unaware of his actions. It's as if huge amounts of adrenalin are pumped into his bloodstream at once, and if nothing is done about it, the physical and emotional pressures will simply kill him. So I think about the pleasure and the pain of mating.

one love one life till the end total honesty and eceptance of who the other person is and not trying to change them working together as one and giveing 100 percent each not 50/50 and compromise is a must. no one is right or wrong just different ideas so compromise its loving each other every day no matter what and not letting any thing or any one take away what you have in each other

To me marriage means intense love, wanting to be with someone for the rest of your life and actually making it mean something, I'm not married but i hope to be some day.

At this moment in time, I don't have any positive things to say about marriage. And hope that one day that will change.

Just a way to let the government make you responsible for the wife's debts.
