Is Marriage Important? How Important is it you?

[beyee]

I never grew up thinking that marriage is the be-all, end-all of things.
My Dad didn't "program" his kids to marry off because we have to conform
the norms of the society especially when you hit the nearing thirties age.
As long as you're enjoying your freedom and achieving your goals one day
at a time, then that's what matters at the end of the day.

Break-ups and annulments from peeps I love and know somehow made me
think about it as one scary feat to take... and when I had to deal my own
heartache years ago, I have turned myself into a cynic.

Just like Mr. Scrooge who belts out, "Bahhh humbugggg" about Christmas, I
too cringe when I hear peeps marry or watch those sappy love birds saying
their I do's... I always end up saying, "they're going to separate anyway..."

Mao jud, BITTER ra kaau ko hahaha!

Marriage isn't for me and I don't see any reason that I'll be using someone else's
surname in the near future because I haven't come across with someone who will
convince me otherwise.

i agree with that bro..

daghan arte mga weddings karon.. as in.. from the tiniest details to the grandeur of locale..

Masuya ma dead, hahahah! Ana man gyud nang wedding oi, it's a celebration- it ought to be attended down to the tiniest detail. Bantay bitaw if ikaw kaslon! HMP!

Like I said in my post,

without true love binding both partners
marriage is nothing but a mere cloud
in a sky of useless lives

with love binding both as ONE
marriage is the sun itself
giving life, giving love
giving light..

often, i'd feel like a fool
having fallen in love
with someone who can not be mine
fools fall in love..
and marry someone else..

guess I am the fool trapping the cynic within...

That being said sire, are you the fool that loves? or the fool that fights?

all girls grew up knowing the cinderella story. that's why marriage was their happily-ever-after thinking they could be with their prince charming forever.


in my case, uyab pa lan gne mu, waa naka gitarong ug dala, how much more kung mgpatali na? i maybe cynic but i don't think it is important anymore. having a kid is important for me. but for marriage, i'd rather pass. i lost faith in the modern male specie. the fairy tale is over already for me. there won't be any prince charmings to slay my own dragons. pft!

like i said...

marriage is a trap for fools......

duh......

But with the humble experience I have had in my life now and relationships seem to be impossible to hold forever, it seems to me that marriage is such a scary thing after all. Is it just me?

How do these "humble experiences" evolve into your notion that marriage is such a scary thing after all?

Are you in love after marriage?

Are you in love before marriage?

Profound questions but perhaps legitimate if we read behind the lines..

importanti kaau..pero wa naman ni na uso...

importanti kaau..pero wa naman ni na uso...

unsa na d i uso ron? annulment?


for me, importante ang marriage, basta lng pud both kay ning agree. bcoz getting married is easy, expensive maybe. staying married is difficult it requires adjustment and a lot of understanding on both parties. if marriage dnt work? annulment is a lot more difficult to get and more expensive.
