I think it one's choice if they do or don't.
Here's my reasons why:
1. Never met the right person.
2. Independence, freedom of being single.
3. What if the marriage doesn't work. Divorce.
(seeing/being/expericed it growing up w/parents) dealing with the pain.
4. Trust Issues & Fear
5. Money
6. Player
7. Already happy w/partner living as common law. (possibly already have childen)
8. Caring of Family member(s) - (sick/disabled-family,relative that depends on you for life)
9. Career/Job (too busy)
10. Not the right time in their life.

Ok a topic i have an opinion on...Here Goes,
i can honestly say i dont think i will get married, i have been in love, but would never think about marriage, maybe i am scared of commitment but i just dont understand how someone could compromise their life to be with someone else, as selfish as that is! life is too short to spend time argueing and being unhappy, and considering relationships never mind marriages RARELY last 'forever', and if they do there is plenty of times each person wishes they were without the other, they only stay together because they couldnt imagine life without the other, they dont know what they would do with theirselves, that is sad, they have never gave it a chance. i am only 19 and things may change, never say never! but for the time being....Not marrying is not the end of the world.

You can do all of the traditional "marriage" acts nowadays (sex, children, owning a home, etc) without having to actually do the deed. Women and men can live separately and together at the same time. It is also more socially acceptable to never marry or to delay marriage until a later age.
Of course, for some it is just a personal choice.

It is possible that many people never marry due to knowing that it is simply not for them. Rather than marrying, making their spouse miserable and being miserable themselves, they choose not be bothered. In talking to people about this subject, I have found that people view it as a life choice, often taking the stance that they are not missing out on anything, but avoiding a probable life drama.
It is important to note that many people do not find marriage undesirable as a whole (for those who want to marry). However, they do not view it as a necessity.

Im still single and it's because I never found the man who I thought would make a great husband and father, simple as that, I wasnt going to get married just to be married.

Some people don't want to be tied down with the responsibilites that come with marrige. Others feel that they don't have time to be in a good relationship...yet others who have been hurt in the past are afraid of getting hurt again, so they won't marry.
And then, there are others, like me...who haven't found that someone yet.

Because some of us just don't want to. No big mystery or conspiracy. It's just not something I ever wanted for myself. I don't want to ever feel obligated to share myself or my life with another person, and I definately don't want anybody telling me anything. I've never even dated that much. Life is too short to let anyone get in my way.

it is hard to meet people...and to meet the right one. very hard. I think that'swhy there are alot of singles still out there. This generation is very career oriented whereas alot of people used to go to school/college to meet their husband. Not anymore.
