I just came across a webpage or web news about celebrities who don't believe in church/pastor/court weddings or marriage per se.
Now I'm curious. For those who aren't married, or are girlfriends/boyfriends. Would you wish to be married one day? or Is it just a piece of paper for you?
For those who wants to get married, where would you want to be married in? (Church/Court)
For those who doesn't want to get married, what if you found out that your partner secretly wished to get married?
Thanks in advance for the responses!
Happy Mylotting!

Hello laydee. Marriage is very important. Its not just a piece of paper. Its something that you have to cherish for the rest of your lives. As of this moment, I dont want to be married. It never did came across me. My boyfriend wants to get married but, I told him that Im not ready yet. He completely understands and he respects my decision.

Yes, before I got married I wanted nothing more than to marry the man I was in a relationship with. My husband on the other hand said it was just a piece of paper. I don't know what brought on his change of heart, but we got married 3 years after our relationship started.
I didn't care where we got married, so we eloped downtown at the county clerk's office. The only thing I regret that day is that we forgot to bring the camera so we have no pictures of our special day. But at least we have the memories.

When I was young, I thought marriage is not a thing for me. But now that I'm not getting any younger I realized that I need to get marred and have somebody to love and accept inspite my condition. I hope that he will find me very soon...

Marriage to me in so very important. I am not married and hope to be one day. I am in a relationship but my parents dont approve of my boyfriend at all and told me monday night that they wouldnt not be at the wedding if i decided to get married to this guy. I have been with him since august of 07 and i dont see any seperation anytime soon and i would marry this guy. I would want to get married on the water at this park that is close to were we live. It is beautiful and they have a hall there that you can have the reception its easy and you dont have to drive to the reception everything is in one place and thats that.

Why doesn't your parents like him?
There must be some reason why they don't like him for you?
In my many experiences with friends involved in relationships like yours, I've learned that it's good too to listen to your parents because they don't really want anything bad to happen to you that's why they're concerned.
Give it thought, and if you feel things can be patched up between your parents and your boyfriend do it. Prove to them that he's right for you. Show them that he could change whatever they don't like about it.
It's better to get married with everyone happy.

To me, a marriage is so much more than just a piece of paper. Its a commitment that you make to each other to suppport one another and to spend the rest of your life together. Honestly, I dont mind if we get married with a traditional ceromony or just elope, as long as I am with the man I love. But. whwen thinking of my ideal wedding, it would be outside surrounded by our family and friends.

I do not believe in the way society currently defines 'marriage'. I dont want to have any part in a ritual that was fabricated by Christians as a way of keeping the order, especially if you view humans as an organism that only accepts monogamy as the "right" thing to do because of our religious heritage.
There is no right and wrong, only perception, so monogamy and therefore marriage is therefore just a void idea if you think scientifically.
HOWEVER, the tax and financial benefits of being married are helpful in maintaining a family. I think it is a shame that we have laws based on something as subjective and old fashioned as religion, but thats the way the majority wants it so thats the way it will be.
Having said that i would like to be "married" to my boyfriend Tom one day.
