No, on the contrary it is a wonderful thing between man and woman, to be married, but the key is to live together first for at least 2 years, before marriage, just to see if it will work. I was married for 30 long and wonderful years until breast cancer took my first wife. Yes 30, years together. I think I know a little about marriage, and this union between 2 people is supposed to be sacred, and honest, and loving, but for some reason,people get married, have kids right away, then get divorced leaving the woman with all the responsibilities, raising the kids, cooking, cleaning, working,etc. Marriage is not a death, but life for 2 people who really love each other. Marriage is not easy to become successful, it takes work,from both people to make the relationship blossom into something wonderful. I am again remarried, and very happy. I try to keep the faith, never give up, never say die, and stay optimistic about everything. I try to let go of the past, and start again, and use my past as a learning experience.

Now that is funny! No, marriage is not a death sentence. It is a start of a new life - two people with common ground working on common goals for a hopefully brighter future. If you would view it as a death sentence, then certainly do not enter into this type of relationship for it most certainly will be a death sentence to you!

I wanted to be married from age 8. I always have believed in marriage and now I think it is because I NEEDED to be married. If I had been taught to always rely on myself, get a great education, men and woman are equal, it is not a bad thing to live alone and so forth, I wouldn't have thought so much about marriage being nirvana. Very distorted..
I am not even sure I believe in marriage anymore. I used to love weddings and now I actaully feel alittle sad, because sooner or later, their eyes will look like comic book character eyes--big as saucers. Now, I know and it is too late. I still love the man, but I don't need to be married. I don't believe it is a death sentence. We always have choices, and I guress I made mine, for now.

Marriage is the partnering of a MAN AND A WOMAN for a lifetime commitment. It is a beautiful thing. It was created by God, and is held up as something extremely important in God's eyes. Honestly, God even uses marriage to illustarte His relationship with us. Marriage can never be a death sentence. It is a LIFE SENTENCE...a life filled of extraordinary possibilities and love.

Not if it is someone you want to be with! If you are ready to settle down and be with the one and only! Then no its not a death sentence! Its only a death sentence if you know you are not ready for it and you go into it any way!

I think a lot of the time it is our own selfishness that makes us miserable. You have to come to terms with the fact that you're not always going to agree. You need to pick your battles and realize that you're not always going to get your way. As women, we tend to confront with our horns out too often. Sometimes you've got to, but not as much as we do. Many times I find that if I approach my husband with a calm tone, in the spirit of constructive critisism rather than attack, he really listens and changes whatever it is, and the harmony of the household doesn't even get disturbed. For a happy marriage, you've got to realize that your spouse isn't perfect, but then neither are you.

Not quite. These days you have a 50% chance of your marriage ending in death and a 50% chance of it ending in divorce.

It doesn't have to be with the right person. If you marry the wrong person, it is bad. If you find somebody you love, who will love you and care for you in return, I believe it can be the total opposite. It can be heaven. I have seen a couple marriages like that, and know they exist.
