Being married vs. being single

[jbean7916]

-Are you going to get married or are you going to stay single?
-Do you believe that you have to be married to experience 'true happiness'?
-Do you believe getting married restricts you from doing certain things?

-I'm 27 and getting married in 3 months. And I'm soooo glad I didn't make this decision at 17 because I was a crazy, know-it-all and it would have failed miserably.

-marriage doesn't equal happiness though there is a lot to be said for companionship, especially as you get much older. While Mr. Slim might be out milking cows in his old age, that might not be your thing at 75.

-sure marriage restricts you from certain things. Like marrying someone else... And... Ummmm legally I can't think of anything else. The marriage isnt what keeps you from packing up and moving across country in the middle of the night if you get a wild hair, the commitment to your partner does. Yes there are things I have "given up" to be in this relationship, but nothing that mattered in the first place. Things change when you become half of a whole. You have someone else's feelings to consider, someone that has different ideas and compromise will have to happen sometimes.
