No it's not. If you want to fck around tho there is still the choice of an open 'agreement'.
I do want to get married and I want kids but more important I want a partner with whom I can spend my days with. I don't want to die alone. I work in an elderly home/hospital and seeing all those people being alone is just depressive and sad. That's not a life. Everyone needs love.
An outdated concept.
I think in more primitive societies and cultures it was a way of extending your property, wealth, bloodline, ect.
But now in modern times, there's not really a need for it. Esp since 55% of marriages end in divorce.
It's time to do away with that construct now.

I think that has more to do with society as a whole nowadays. People just don't take it seriously, but that doesn't mean we should do away with the whole concept. My grandparents have been married for like 50 years and my parents were married for 20 before my dad passed away. Marriage can be good, people just have to have the right intentions. And the need for it is to show your commitment to someone and prove that you want to spend the rest of your life with them. I don't know, maybe I'm just too much of a romantic. (plus other benefits)

My grandparents were married 45 years before he died.
My parents are going on 29 years married.
One of my aunt and uncle are going on 36.
I was speaking on my personal opinion, so I should have made that clear.
My life and my goals don't have a necessity for marriage and that's not to say that I'm opposed to committed relationships, I'm in one now.
I just don't find marriage as something to look forward to.
I'm glad I can freely go to the courthouse and marry my boyfriend if I so choose, BUT it's not something I look forward to or ever have wanted to do.
