my ex-b/f asked me to marry him once. i totally just lost it. i said no, and we broke up a few months later. i think my past has alot to do with it (if u read my previous questions, u know what i mean...).
i feel suffocated at the thought of marriage. i think that i will probably have like a live in relationship but never marriage. i just don't see it happening for me. why do i feel this way about marriage???

Don't feel bad hon that you think you never want to marry. I am past 50 and never married,it's not because I didn't want to in every case but my relationships lasted a long time anyway.
Just keep putting yourself out there and maybe one day some guy will come into your life that will help you change the way you feel toward marriage.There are people around who have spent a lifetime with their mate and never married them. If you choose to do that,there is nothing wrong with it. For me,I still want to be married to someone. Trust me,being married to someone is much better in the long run. I spent 7 yrs. with a man who had kids,I made the mistake of not pressing the issue of marriage on him and paid the price dearly. Best of luck to you.

I haven't read your previous posts but i am almost sure that your past as something to do with it.
Having a boyfriend is already a commitment so you are not in the wrong way.
Saying no to a marriage its not being afraid of commitments, that if you don't believe in marriages.
You have to answer yourself, if you could life with a man for a lifetime and not marry with him (the you would be afraid of the marriage institution), or if you couldn't give up your individuality to join another person (then you simply don't love the other person)
This just my point of view

It's normal to feel that way, marriage just isn't for you like alot of other people in the world.

I think that you haven't found the person that you want to be with. I'm dating someone of three years and I won't marry him either. 1- he's never presented me with a ring and 2- I'm not sure that he's the one. I think you will come around. deep in your heart they just haven't been right for you.

because you are not comfortable with the idea of marriage or you are just not comfortable of the idea of staying with someone for the rest of your life . It is completely understandable.
