Being married vs. being single

[el8ch]

So, after all my dabbling nonsense, comes the main point(s):

-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?

and there's some more, but, I can't think of it. So what's your take on the marriage topic?

I am married. I have my freedom. I have my happiness. Marriage should not restrict you from being yourself or doing the things you love to do. When I got married not much changed besides the obvious addition of responsibility and the daily compromise of things like... what side of the bed I will sleep on, or what we will make for dinner, the simple things. Marriage isn't for everyone, but for some it is everything.

When I was 17... I think that marriage was the furthest thing from my mind. Just live dude, you have a long time before you should even be thinking wedding bells...
