Hi everyone. Just a simple question here. Not sure if posted before, but i hope people here will not find it silly. Just hope to generate some discussion.

Question as per the title.

Early 30s here. I personally do not like the idea of marriage. However, almost all of my friends(both male and female), said they wanna settle down.

I had a few relationships in the past, and did not like the idea of getting attached or married.

Reasons:

1. I love sex(i believe most do, in this forum), i love hot ladies, and i suppose i cannot settle for just one. It will be unfair to my other half if i were to find FLs or go on hookups if i get married or attached, hence it is better i remain single, to enjoy as much as i want. Maybe im just a bast**

2. As boss in this forum mentioned before, you get married if you are keen in fatherhood. I never like the idea of fatherhood, hence i guess it is better to stay clear of marriage.

3. No point getting a girlfriend if i dont wish to get married. And i guess no women will see me as long term relationship material anyway.

Am i considered an oddball with this sort of mindset?

Questions and comments welcomed. Please don't flame me, just hope to hear the views of more people.

Thank you in advance!

As long you manage to find the one you like, same goes to her. Then marriage is a why not thing. Marriage is a personal and beautiful thing. Nobody can force you to marriage if you don't want to.

I believe that marriage is just a system that made by man just to create to use law to protect/giving status/an answer to each other in a relationship. If a couple loving one another deeply, do they still even need to marriage? Same goes to going to school study, graduate and receive your cert.

Different people different opinion. Imho marriage is to tie down each other basically, making it difficult for either parties to let go. I said difficult, not impossible. Marriage is all about being responsible for each other and the extended family, inclusive.

If you are not ready, dont commit. If not its troublesome to get out.

To those who view marriage as just a piece of paper, I hope to illuminate your perception. Marriage is a commitment. One in which you give your love one, that you will stand by him/her no matter what. Of course people may say that you can do that without getting married. But I say, if its true (that you feel this way), what's stopping you from going through the ritual, announcing to everyone that you're married?

Of course this can only take place if you found that someone you can really settle down for the rest of your life. Alternative is that someone is very rich :D

You must know how to different between fucking partner and marriage partner, and because always you got fucking partner. When you meet a marriage partner in sudden time is right to marriage and this may let you reject once or twice and you will become soft and get marriage.

On my opinion, marriage IS only a piece of paper. I am on the other side of the fence on the matter. While marriage is a legal form of commitment, you can still have commitment in your relationship without it. When you find the right person, trust me, you will never think of marriage. You will not be thinking of "hey, lets commit and go and step further, lets get serious.. let's get MARRIED!!"... Find the right person and you will be thinking more of what you want to do with your partner for the next day, next week, next year...., what you want to do together and what you want to see together. In a right relationship, you wouldn't need to prove to the world you are together.

Now, why not go through the ritual? Cause the status quo and people's perception costs alot of time and money.

But hey, I'm married :D . But only because in Singapore, if you do not, you do not get housing grants, kids tax bonuses. Marriage also gives some legal perks as well and besides, its to keep the older generation happy. Both our lives have not changed before and after and we tend to keep it that way. If not for the first 2 reasons, we'll gladly burn the piece of paper and sing Kum Bah Yah while doing so.

In short, marry the person whom you do not think to marry with.. :D

Marriage is really for the purpose of procreation and then ensuring your off-spring grow up well, don't be a burden to the society and then carry on the cycle.
The other factor will then be the companionship and stuffs, which is what some people seeking marriage believes.
But it requires a whole lot amount of committment and reaponsibilities, as whatever happens, for good or bad, will impact not just 1 person but the family.

My personal opinion.

My sentiments exactly! Which is why i never feel a need to get married.

I see many of my single male friends getting somewhat desperate for a girl to spend their lives with, before they become a pot-bellied and bald man. Perfectly understandable and i'm not judging them. However, there are simply too many hot ladies out there, why get desperate over them? Just relax and enjoy the ride. =)

PS: i think i sound like a basta**. No offense to anyone here.

You're not a bastard.
You just lack maturity n insight as a 30 plus. yr old guy.

Getting married doesn't make a guy potbellied n bald.

And marriage isn't a licence for sex.
Just read the horror storys here about no sex after marriage.

Marriage is for companionship n support even if there's no love.

As u get older, all yr married friends will mix with their other married frens talking about kids. They've little time for you n its creepy for a 40 50 yr old guy mixing with guys young enough to b yr son.

And unless youre a hermit, you need someone to eat at latest restaurants, travel, go to events n movies etc.

Someone who take care of you when you have to have yr prostate removed. Or someone to talk to when you get fucked by yr boss. Or when you're fired by yr boss.

But of cos don't expect your wife to go with u to your anime convention to see some heavily make up lian in a padded bra you love so much

Even if you don't expect kids to take care of you, wad are you going to do when you od on viagra n get a stroke or die at home? Nursing homes are very expensive n your dog will more likely eat you than help you.

And as guys get older, sex is less important for you as yr libido diminish n There are more important things to you in life.

Even if you pay, you can detect the disinterest in a 20 yr old whore fucking a 50 yr old you.

And if you don't pay, you're a cliche driving a sportscar in yr spandex shirt wearing yr tag heuer chatting up a syt. And you've nothing in common with them other than wanting to. fuck them

Interestingly, both marriage and divorce are very stressful events.


Top 10 Most Stressful Life Events: the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale
http://paindoctor.com/top-10-stressful-life-events-holmes-rahe-stress-scale/

Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale

For adults, the top ten most stressful events and their “Life Change Unit” scores are as follows:
Death of a spouse: 100
Divorce: 73
Marital separation: 65
Imprisonment: 63
Death of a close family member: 63
Personal injury or illness: 53
Marriage: 50
Dismissal from work: 47
Marital reconciliation: 45
Retirement: 45

A score of 300 or higher puts a person at risk of illness, 150-299 shows a moderate risk of illness, and a score of less than 150 predicts only a slight risk of illness.

For “non-adults” and is scored in the same way:
Death of a parent: 100
Unplanned pregnancy/abortion: 100
Getting married: 95
Divorce of parents: 90
Acquiring a visible deformity: 80
Fathering a child: 70
Jail sentence of a parent for over one year: 70
Marital separation of parents: 69
Death of a sibling: 68
Change in acceptance by peers: 67

Hi TS, IMHO, get married only when you think you are ready to settle down to start your second part of your life. There is alot of commitment to that. Having said that, nobody can guarantee a life time that things and emotions dun change. 10yrs later? 20yrs later? I used to think total full devotion to someone I loved. I was wrong. When it hits you, there is no stopping. Call me weak or watsoever.

Get married, have kids, then maybe no more romance and sex.

"You know, when we first got married, I was so happy. Daddy was so handsome. Everyone said 'Perfect couple'. Then after, pop-pop-pop, baby-baby-baby. Then cooking, cleaning, wipe up poo-poo. No more romantic time, nothing. Poof! All gone."

Hmm, I like to share my views here. No offence to any one.

When I was in my 20s, while with my ex and shortly after breaking up with her, marriage didn't feature in my mind. To be honest, I didn't visualise marrying my ex, probably that's one of the reasons why she left me. I wasn't in the dating scene that much either but I did go out with some girls. I thought time (and youth) was on my side, plus I had friends to hang out with. They were dating or seeing someone too, but nothing serious sometimes. So marriage wasn't on my mind. Even when my good friend got married at 29, it didn't ring an alarm. I wished him and his Mrs all the best.

Came the first years of 30s, panic did set in a little when male friends around me got married one after another. Kind of reminded me of the opening scenes of Saving Pte Ryan where one after another poor, helpless soldiers got shot upon hitting Omaha Beach. It did feel that way in some ways. It also made me wonder, what the hell was wrong with me? Am I that undesirable? Haha. But of course, something happened in my family that kind of 'prevented' me from dating. I hate to use this as an excuse but I was also in the process of re-discovering myself as a single unit, because of some books I read, written by someone. Well, all being said, I let those early years of 30s slipped by.

Now that I just crossed the mid way mark of mid 30s, my thoughts towards marriage (and kids) are probably one of a 'green light' -as in the Great Gatsby. I got to admit, I'm probably past my peak (as one friend said). Others may beg to think otherwise. I shall leave it to yourself to determine that.

In conclusion, though deep inside I do hope to get married some day, I think it's really hard. I think climbing mount Everest is easier than getting married! I think the word is a big "IF". If I do meet someone, maybe I will. But if I don't, I'm still fine with being a single unit. My point being, a person could change his/her thinking over time. I moved from someone who didn't think about marriage to hoping it might happen.

End of day, I hope to fall in love again and hopefully that leads to marriage. It's really becoming a "green light". But if I don't, I have SBF. That is what is important too. :D

Well, is just a different stages of our life.

We look at life differently once we surpass that stage, just like playing games, each level is different and getting more difficult.

If one keep staying at that level, ultimately you will give up the game.

Find some life.

Currently, I'm at the stages that my kids might be also surfing here, to explore another level of their life.

Sound excited? Hahaha:D

your children are not the ones that take care of you. Money is the one that take care of you in the end..:)

I agree. This is especially true in developed western countries where children are expected to leave, and they themselves want to leave, their parents' home from about 18 years of age unless they are in financial difficulty and cannot afford to rent.

I believe there is a law in Singapore that allows parents to take their children to court for maintenance? If true, it solidifies your point that money is the thing to take care of us in old age, not children by default.

Who you marry today may not be the same person down the road.
Woman change easily.

Who you marry today may not be the same person down the road.
Woman change easily.
It is like buying lottery.
No guarantees.
Mine changed after a few years.
How am I supposed to anticipate that?
Just bad luck lor.
I can see divorce on the cards maybe in a few years' time.

Stay strong bro.

Anyway, I do not want such stress in my life, hence my decision to stay single, at least for the time being.

Many women don't get married in this day and age as well. If they can be so independent, shouldn't we as men be even better?

Thanks bro.
I learnt one thing over the years.
Money protects the man.
Women can leave us but we must not let them take our money away.
Money is the most dependable and it can bring one happiness without being married.

We must keep in mind that choosing a life partner is a very important decision, but very often love clouds our judgement (hence the saying "Love is blind") hence explaining why we do not always see the flaws and shortcomings of the person we are dating. Spectators, usually our friends and family, are likely to see the flaws and shortcomings, but most of the time, they do not mention it because it can cause offence. It does not help that having good sex helps us feel in love, and the "blindness" continues.

Before you walk into the registrar to sign your name on the dotted line, consider this:

Whether women or men, everyone can potentially change years down the road. Marriage is hard work that never ends. Lot's of give and take, close one eye to your spouse's imperfections, and patience at their shortcomings etc.

I'm a married man myself and tho my marriage is far from perfect (whose is?), I consider myself blessed that my wife has a number of positive attributes that syncs with my values. Everything else is negotiable. ;)

That is not totally true because people do lose their money being silly or careless with it, and then there is this:

Generally, the longer you remain married, the more money the spouse can contest in court for.

I was married. Ex wife had many affairs and she believed it was her right to do so. Then she threatened me with the women's charter. Almost drove me to suicide. Managed to divorce after she got into a rush to divorce. I lost quite a bit of money but at least i am now free. Poorer but not as poor as i could have become. But definitely happier.

Infidelity does not constitute as a reason to not paying maintenance to wife. It can only be used as a reason for divorce.

Late 40 .. married with 2 boys 21 n 16

Positive - it is real joy to see the children grow up especially when they were babies and toodlers.

Negative- financial burden as my wife dun work. Now that they grown up, they have their own activities. I alone again.
