Marriage is such an individual choice. I do think everyone would love to find that special someone who they could spend the rest of their life with... living happily ever after!
I was married, I have been single for more years than I was married and am beginning to think that I am better off to remain alone. I am too set in my ways at this time, unless we could be married and live in two separate places! :)
Keep your chin up, the right one will come along.. don't give in for just anybody!

I have some funny questions for u ridah.You said you are a single bachelor,whether there are coupled batcherlors??..
And second one is ... bachelor for some years means.... You married before?????
Marriage is for everyone who wants share and enjoy with a partner.IF u can live,then go for it.Most of the people in this world think that they should have a partner so that they make things happier with their joyful moments.Some people may be somewhat frustrated of these family lives because of what they got from the past experiances.That experiances may be because of their family or some other.I think ur still struggling ,which way to go either married or single.Choose ur correct path and enjoy.

I have the same thinking, for me I think marriage is not for me. I am already 28 years old, never had a boyfriend. I don't see my future with a husband. I don't know maybe I am enjoying my life as a single. I want to have a boyfriend but sad that I don't meet anyone right now. I don't know if I am scared or what, maybe it will happen in right time.

Hi ridah. If you are not ready for marriage, it's best not to embark on it. Someday you will fall in love and if the urge comes, you will know. Meanwhile, just take 1 day at a time and not to worry so much about people's expectation. Take care, friend.

Marriage is not for everyone. Of course it would be nice if a person has a someone to share everything with and have children with, but I believe one should get married not only for those reasons. One should get married when he is absolutely sure he wants to be married with his partner. When he does not get to that "sureness", then better not get married.
Have a nice day!

I think even if someone might not get true love in there life they should keep hope that arrange marriage will give them true love because in the later stages you might feel alone and might require someone special with you so that you can share some sweet moments with them.
Even if you have broken heart then also same thing is applicable.
I didn't got true love but still I have hope that either I will get one or arrange marriage will give me true love.

I think marriage is not for everybody,maybe others are successful but for some its not.Many people enter marriage but most of them doesn't really know what it is,especially young adults nowadays,that's why majority of the married couples ended being divorced or separated.
So in conclusion,dont worry about it friend,there are bunch of people like you(lol,count me in).

I am single one. Once I have a bf. Maybe our thoughts are completely different so that we were apart. I am not an active girl and seldom take part in parties.Although I look not bad,I haven't chance to meet guys. Anyway,I always believe I will meet someone suitable to me and get marriage.Every one need get marriage so that they will never be lonely.

I don't think everyone fix to married life, everyone should understand this point before decide to get marry, and why decide to this. For the duty, live with lover, or only need the feeling of be loved. Marriage is a sacred thing, not only a thing about two people too, it also concern with other family, and your kid in the future.

Hi...i truely understand your feelings. I'm as you too, bachelor,haha. However, dont't be too upset for that. i remember there's a saying "There's already someone fated to each of everyone in this world when he'she is born". So, it's just the matter of time that we'll meet the Mr. or Mrs right in our life. I also believe that someday, somehow, somewhere, i'll be able to find 'her', and live together happily ever after just like in fairy tales,haaha. Good luck to you! :)

Every one have a choice weather to marry or not, marriage is for everyone no question about that, time can say weather are you going to marry or not, because marriage is a gift from God that man and woman would not be separated by any kind of destruction.

marriage hmmm... i think it really depends on the individual. personally i wouldn't want to get married simply because i don't like the idea having to come home to something or maybe my mind just isn't mature enough to understand the concept of marriage. i wanna be able to roam around freely and do what i want to do without acknowledging my partner or something. and im more of a career oriented person. as for you, maybe if you stop looking so hard. like try having more fun rather then looking all the time, the right girl might just fall right in to your lap. i mean who knows maybe the right girl's already with you yet you don't realize it?

i don't think marriage is for everyone ,i know most of people want to go into marriage but not all handle marriage affairs well.that is why someone divorce and start again their freedom.i heard one female friend said she won't get marry again cause she didn't want to suffer the bad feeling again.marriage is a choise ,i am sure there are many people still single when they are very old.

I don't think marriage is for everyone. There are those who choose to be single, or commit themselves to a religious life as in priesthood, or there are just some who wants to live a single life. Everyone has its own choice in life.

I don't think marriage is for everyone, so don't feel alone out there. I have been married, have been in relationships.. and I'm here to tell ya.. marriage isn't all it's made out to be. Some people really are better in a relationship and are content with not taking it to the next level.
