50% - 60% of marriages end in Divorce..
The median length of a marriage is 7 years..
Nearly 70% of divorces are iniated by..WOMEN
So if I met an attractive woman..Marry her and have kids with her. There is a 50-60% chance I will lose half of everything I earned in 7 years..
I dont like those odds..
It is worth it to me!! If you marry for the right reasons and do it with the right person. It needs to be led by God for me. Ppl are to easy to give up on it. I wrote a paper on this, but it's to much to share. I just know it is worth it to me.
Yeah its worth it ... YOu only live once and everyone makes mistakes in life ... but I wouldnt rush into marriage or base it on material posessions because stuff like that will not allow you to live a fulfillng life with your partner ... Personally I think marriage it beautiful but I know I am not going to get married until God says its my time to do so but I am excited to think that my Future Husband is out there somewhere ... and I am keeping my V-card for him :-) I just hope he is a sweet.considerate.caring guy
speak it sistah!! you do only live once. it'll be worth it for me. even if it doesnt work. i experienced something that some people didnt. i decided to stick with my man i have now because i gets tiring and risky dating over other people at the same time. its not as much drama either.
^^^^ damn somebody speaks tha truth FINALLY!
I have had too many guys (and girls) ask me why I'm still a virgin...cause thaz tha way God intended for it to be. Just imagine, the surprise on my future husband's face when he finds out that he's gonna be the first and the ONLY...that makes the connection between us that much stronger! So yeah, as long as u get married for the right reasons, marriage is DEFINITELY worth it!
but what if he has already had it... and what if he makes that mistake of going to someone else? imagine the look of surprise on YOUR face when you find that out...
not being negative, looking at both sides of the equation... :arrow:
i actually agree with nick and lbf on this one...theres a reason why all these relationships are outta order and you have all this "baby momma drama"...
i think marriage is worth it..... i think now-a-days ppl jus seem to b gettin married for all the wrong reasons and/or not fully thinking things through before making such a big step. because it is easy to mistake infatuation with love,and it will eventually come to light that the whole time it was jus infatuation not pure love which is the reason 50-60% of mrriages end in divorce.
If we could count on people following the Lord's commands, I wouldn't mind but we can't. Everyone... Idk it seems as if people are becoming more like animals we just do what we feel and don't think of the future or the consequences. We want instant satisfaction and when we don't get it we throw a fit and want to end it. Instead of working through it we want to take the easy way out... Why work at something I orginally committed to when I can be a coward and leave, right? lol I also feel we have a increasing rate of infidelity that alarmingly is becoming exceptable. I just don't understand why it is so hard to NOT have relations with anyone that isn't your spouse, like I said some people are acting like savages/animals, and they don't want to take any responsibilty for it. I would love to get married if someone could guarantee or at least give me a 70% chance that my marriage will last and we won't have to go through UNNECESSARY troubles. I am willing to work through things but I won't tolerate cheating ( emotional and physical) or him not putting in any effort for a substantial amount of time. Sorry...It seems I went on a rant its just that I am really passionate about this topic. Like I said I wish I could but I just can't trust someone that much because now a days the majority of people are all selfish and all talk. On top of that too many people do not know what love is and how much work it requires. They "fall in love" during the honeymoon phase in the beginning and they mistake that and take it as if that is their true love that is meant for life.
