Is marriage a thing of the past?

Answer 1

Marriage is an amazing thing..beleive me the feeling of doing things the right way is just amazing and it is totally different to doing it without any serious obligations...Love must lead to marriage..when a guy loves a girl eventually he must want her for life..Good Luck

Answer 2

It seems like it is beginning to phase out a little, but I still plan on getting married. Then again I am not your typical guy (or person for that matter) by any stretch. I certainly hope not, although most people seemed to have forgotten what love is really all about so I can't see why it wouldn't eventually become a thing of the past...

How sad

Answer 3

I would like to think it isn't. Marriage is a serious thing to me, having been engaged once before and not marrying that person I am very glad I didn't. Divorce is expensive and hard to deal with, usually. Marriage should only been done once, to many ppl give so easy and call it quits without ever getting that really cool level of comfort and friendship marriage has to offer...if your lucky!

Answer 4

No. I do not think so. I respect marriage and I think that you should only marry with knowing that there is no way out. Marriage is a beautiful thing.

Answer 5

I must admit that less couples are finding the need to get married, now that defacto couples have a lot of the same rights, and also with the equal rights for gay couples and so on.

Now that religious freedom is also more predominant, less couples are getting married for the sake of satisfying others who may consider they are living in sin.

Answer 6

no marriage is not a thing of the past, people get married everyday, the only problem is they don't want to work at it to make it last, there should be a test people have to take to get ;married or have children, be whole lot less divorce and unmarried moms

Answer 7

No, i don't think so. I got married at 18 and 10 years later we're still happy with three kids. We're breaking the cycle.
It takes a lot for listening and compromises.

Answer 8

I think that it is, I am 21 and have been with my boyfriend for three years and we talked about but ended up deciding that the cons outweighed the pros. Also my parents are in the middle of a messy divorce, his parents have gotten divorced and his father is divorced again.

Answer 9

Yes, and society is feeling the burden of children without stable homes and couples with out stable adult relationships. Its like society is being run by teenagers, because mentally, that's what many people still are.

Answer 10

it should be.

it is only a legal binding created way back when to enslave women. The only purpose of marriage ever was to ensure male heirs for men (rulers and leaders of society). Today people delude themselves into thinking it is a sacred bond or some crap like that. All the while you still have baptists saying that the man is still head of the household and makes all the decisions for the family and its the wifes duty to obey obey obey. And if its not legally available to all in this country. it shouldnt be available to anyone. Its just a legal binding plain and simple.
