The concept makes me ill. Plus, I love to go and come as I please and not answer to anyone but myself. Keep my home the way I like it. Eat what I want and when I want. Watch TV when I want .... Fart when I want.....and numerous other things! I can't ever see sharing this all with another person and especially little bratty kids!

I think most married people are just needy people. They can't stand to be alone or they may crumble. Weak if you ask me.

I miss nothing about not being married or having kids....felt this way whole life...and am in 40s...most married people I ever see are miserble anyway. There are exceptions. But look at the divorce rate. Marriage is a failed concept. And there are enough kids in this world. Most of you can't afford the ones you have.

Then don't get married. Marriage isn't for everyone, and you certainly seem to be one of those people. Personally, I do come and go as I please and don't "answer" to anyone either. If I want to go out w/ my friends I do, and vice versa. We just have the common courtesy to let each other know our plans, and I never tell my husband no unless we already have something planned.

So why did you bother to ask this question? Obviously what works for some people doesn't work for others. So some people don't like being alone, nothing wrong with that. You like to be alone, nothing wrong with that either. If you don't want to be married don't but why put down on it when you have no experience with it? I am happily married and my husband and I are best friends and like to do things together. It doesn't make someone weak because they don't want to be alone. It's all about choice and preference.

Because some of us deeply love our spouses and feel that the other person is really the other half of themselves. Unfortunately a lot of people get married for the wrong reasons and end up divorced in very short order.
In a way, I feel a bit of pity for you because eventually you might look around your life and regardless of all your comings and goings and farting, you might realize that you're missing something.

It's called love...something you obviously don't understand. As for doing what you please, when you want, farting the wrong way or however you want...I let my husband do what he wants when he wants. When you have a relationship based on love and trust, it's strong and can last a lifetime. And not all kids are bratty...depends on how the parents raise them. If kids grew up with you, they'd probably end up in prison.

Let me draw it out for you in large letters with sidewalk chalk, buddy...
First of all, because you LOVE one another and (hopefully) have a long list of shared interests/activities.
Second, because you have a sense of commitment, as opposed to just liking "loose shoes" and a string of shallow relationships for sex.
Third, because the sex becomes so much better one you really get to know one another and SHARE all your deep fantasies. Nobody can push your buttons like someone who really knows what you like.
Fourth, because married people no longer have to be concerned about the risk of STDs, nor do they have to play all the pointless mind games that singles in the dating pool play.
Fifth, in a mature relationship, both partners have all the FREEDOM they need to do what they want ~ whether it's watching TV or...in your case...farting.
Sixth, if you don't like kids - don't breed any.
Any other questions?

The thought of being with my dh for the rest of my life thrills me to the core, to tell you the truth. I'd hate to be without him...and would hate to grow old alone.
In our relationship, we have a lot of freedom...I can eat what/when I want, I can come and go when I want, we both fart in front of each other...heck, we even leave the bathroom door in our master suite open most of the time! Now that's a test of intimacy!
Seriously, I'd hate to be alone...I love sharing my whole life with him and love that he shares his with me. We're each others spouse, best friend and business partner.
Your thought about children should just serve to show you that you're not ready to have kiddos yet. I love my babies (they're not babies anymore, but they're still my babies at 17, 15, 13 & 9) and can't imagine life without them either. They bring so much joy and enrich my life so much!

Then I guess you don't realize the true concept of marriage. Just wait, you think you can't stand it now, but wait till your in your 40's going "I can't believe I felt that way. Now I have no one to love me and no children to watch grow up."

I have known people just like you. As they got even older than you are now they realized that they did not want to spend their lives alone as they got older and everyone else had their own families.
Also when you are 80, who are you going to have visit you in your old age? It wont be children or grandchildren.

Then don't get married and don't have children. Just remember, not everyone is like you, and there is nothing wrong with that.
I am glad you see that this lifestyle is not for you.

Sometimes people get married just cause they don't want to be alone. That is why there is so much divorce out there.
