IRL Marriage
Quick find code: 261-262-688-65722152
Where I live, it's normal for people to get married when they are 18,19, and 20 years old. I am 20 years old and in the past week, 10 people i know or knew in high school are engaged. Some have babies already at 20 years old and personally i think that is way to young. I don't think people have experienced life yet at 20 years old; I still feel like a kid. I am currently attending university and I do go on dates (4-5 a month) but I am not looking for anything too serious. I don't plan on getting married for AT LEAST 5 more years or until i am done with college and have a job that I know could support a family or more than just myself.
I enjoy going on dates as much as i do, it helps me find what i like and dont like with what i want to be with for the rest of my life. I definitely know I will be married one day with a family but until then I will continue what I am doing and I know everything will end up falling into place.

I know this is a very, very ancient topic, but here are my thoughts about it. First off, I have never had a girlfriend IRL and of course people at first impression would not believe it and call me out as a liar. But honestly, when I was younger back in high school I was interested in dating (crowd mentality) without a good reason. Then as I was about to go to college, I figured that dating was just meh, nothing too special and bad relationships would be worse than being single. Plus, being single would be much better in terms of independence, not being tied down, not having to answer to anyone (except authority and rule of law), then being able to do most things on my own terms. So basically, I'm single by choice (for the most part).
Now onto the marriage topic, well recently my friend and her fiancee just got married last weekend and they seem happy right now which is awesome for them. However, personally, since I don't consider dating, marriage would be out of the equation for me. Not to mention all the effort, sacrifice to make things work. I mean, some people can do, but I can only speak for myself, and similar to my paragraph about dating, the reasons why I would not enter marriage are similar. To add a few more reasons against marriage, children, trust, and having less time to pursue my hobbies, passions, and goals IRL. (Well some people with a good relationship can do all those I suppose, but even then they are tied down.
)
Klyntar and Fleekstar both covered most of my points that I've made pretty well.
About Klyntar's point, well I don't even need ass
I guess hugs (and kisses- even then that's a romantic luxury imho) alone would be what I want, no more or less. As far as social life, I just need some good friends, and some platonic affection from them (and maybe people I admire), and then the rest is ok w/e.
I also agree with Fleekstar's point about marriage and divorce (it's just extra pains that aren't worth it).
