No, but it's a pretty good fricking idea to get married before you do.

It should be, in a responsible world.

I'm not railing against premarital sex here, don't misunderstand me.

I'm saying marriage is for families. Don't get married unless you're talking about a family and ready to have babies.

It is if you want quality babies instead of leeches on the system.

Sounds like you're getting ready to screw up a really nice affair.

I've got 10 yrs in, good and bad ones.

It's nice having a companion to hang out with if you have a cool one.

Doing other things with your friends will slowly fade away.

I kid, I kid.

But I ask myself, is it even worth it in this modern age? I'm still in my 20s, great job where I get to travel frequently, with more money I can spend on my own.


Fake joking about being an SJW = closet SJW
Bragging about age, income, job = doosh

SJW + Doosh = Super Doosh (girl only with you for money, congrats)

If you want to have kids then get married, if not then I'd stay single.


Make sure both of you can have kids before getting married

Yes, providing you get to spend it with another person's wife.

Found it with my wife before I married her, and continue to find it with her daily. Suck it, cool kids. Enjoy loneliness.

Do you not travel with your girlfriend? Would you not be able to keep the same job if you married her?

You're telling me you don't spend money on her? Or do you just assume that once you get married, she takes all your money?

I have. It's great. Seven years strong. Only getting better, but it is different than just dating especially once you have kids.

33 years and if could do it over would in a heartbeat. Just don't make mountains out of molehills. Most stuff is small stuff. Keep it that way and all will be good. Having God in your life helps as well. Good luck!!

It's the downfall of society when such a question is asked with any sincerity.

I lost my wife of 18 yrs & 3 boys to cancer 3 yrs ago & knowing all I know today, I'd marry her again in a heartbeat. But it all boils down to what the both of you put into it. Treat the marriage like a boy/girl friend relationship, to be traded in for a younger, fresher version at your convenience, that is exactly what you will get out of it. Work at it, always be honest with each other, and you have a great chance at having a very special relationship like we had.

Not a good thing...a great thing. Married 30 years and would do it again with the same woman without question. Not sure if I am lucky, picked right, or both.
