I agree with you but I also know that it will take a very long time for people to get used to that idea and even then I guess it is just better left to each individual and I know there is alot of that out there already..yayyyyy

Marriage is not old fashioned. I think many individuals are just not mature enough to take such a huge step. One issue is that there are so many choices in life to make; careers, lifestyles, and don't forget keeping up with the Joneses! I feel that people should wait until they are almost in their thirties, have their life together so that they have something to bring to the relationship, and are mature enough to express what it is they want and need from a relationship before getting married. After all a success full marriage must have strong lines of communication. As for open marriages, I'm against them. It all goes back to the tools needed for a good marriage; maturity, trust and communication.

Not "everyone" fools around. If you already feel this way, then why get married at all? If you are married, I would not suggest sharing with others, what you have committed to each other when you married. It almost always complicates matters in the marriage. Before you know it, you both will be in Divorce Court.

Marriage never goes out of style, but it is for some people and not for others.
I think people just need to be honest with themselves and others about what they want in a relationship. If you want a committed, long term, monogamous relationship, marriage is the way to go.
If you are not looking to be in a marriage, then don't get into one.
I don't believe in "open" marriages. Either be in a marriage or don't be in one.

Open marriages won't fix the problem. People have no honor and no sense of responsibility anymore. So giving them free reign will not solve it. People need to get their heads out of their butts and realize that it's not about them. It's about doing what you say you are going to do. If you take vows in a marriage ceremony, live up to them. Be an honorable person in all that you do.

Marriage is not old fashion. Its always nice to have someone who is always there for you. Openess in your marriage is even better. How great woud it be if we could all be open together and still have the one we need the most always there.

why would you think marriage is old fashion? You need to find your self a decent spouse at least date for 2 years and you should read some books from Dr.Laura she is so awesome.

I know a number of people who are into polyamory. It seems to work well for most of them.
Group marriages would be a disaster though. Too many issue would come up over custody and property in the event of a divorce.

first you have to understand what marriage means; it means more than love and sharing your life with someone. it also means mutual respect, gathering of properties and money, building a future together.
An Open marriage is a dangerous thing. #1 you must have complete and total trust in the other person. if you feel they are going to cheat anyways.. there is your answer. you don't trust the other person.
When you find someone you can totally trust and totally love.. you will find your answer.
