"It’s tempting to think of marriage as old fashioned. Why not just live with someone and be done with it? What need for a public ceremony?

I'm honest enough to admit that I'm too selfish to want marriage or kids. I enjoy my solitude. I have my work. I have my hobbies. I'm fine.

Never sign a contract where the other person gets paid to leave.

Honestly, what's the point of getting married when the chances of getting a divorce is so high? It doesn't seem worth it if you really think about it.

Marriage is great if you want to lose your house, your income, your kids, and your dog.

First, the engagement ring, then the wedding ring...then, the suffering!

Marriage it's self is not the problem. It's the person "THEY" chose, settled, tolerated, was given an ultimatum, scared to be alone, to marry.

I think most people just marry out of tradition. They don't think about what it really means or if it's even needed.

Stay single healthy and wealthy.
