Why people are not interested in marriage?

hi! who says that? yes, there are really many young people nowadays who are living together with their partners without a marriage and maybe they think it is better so, because they are afraid, that if some day they want a divorce then they will have to pay for t, they also have to pay for a wedding and many things connected with the marriage, but i have always told, that people who think that way, really don't have to get married, because they don't love each other that much and truly. but when I find my girl, i will definitely marry her, because it is the better way for me and what about you Vine? do you want to get married or you are already married?

To be honest, I just believe that money is much better spent elsewhere. I have a child (and one on the way) with my girlfriend and the thought if marriage still sickens me. Every time I think of that $1,500 ring...or that $10,000 wedding...I'll think to myself, "I could have put that towards a downpayment on another house", or "that could have been a years tuition for my child", or "that money could have been saved in an RRSP for our retirement" Call me greedy, but marriage is such a low priority to me. It just seems like money is being wasted, when it could be used elsewhere... Unfortunately, she doesn't feel the same way.

hi vine A lot of young people just live together and often have children by several different men. most say marriage is just a sheet of paper blah blah, and some say why marry as you will just divorce anyway.Some women do not want to marry, they have a career and thats all they need. Some are going to learn how to take care of themselves first then marry, and more power to them for that. A lot of women and men are turned off marriage because they came from families where divorce is prominent.

We are over populated here (in my country). Many women got pregnant too at a very early age out of wedlock... They sometimes force to get married because there is a baby already... others choose not to because they don't want to be tied in a relationship just because of the baby only... they wanted to be sure of themselves... otherwise they will end up separated eventually or hurting each other in some ways... Why some people not interested in marriage? May be because the one for them doesnt come up yet... or they are just simply afraid of commitment... They can also be at the stage of "not yet ready"... Soon when they are financially stable...

Yes, I have known many people are afraid to get married, and some are just living together but hate to be legally couple. Maybe its because of the divorce cases is increasing,of course they would also spend a lot on a wedding, and financially shortage is the other reason why a lot of couple are not getting married. for the singles, they chose to be single maybe its because afraid of man/woman or maybe they are not prepared yet

The high rise of competition and the growing demand of all-in-one skill is among the most prevalent factors of today's late marriage.People fights for a job of satisfaction for a long time and look for stability which is offered at higher post and experience.Again,people has becomes less sustainable to pressure and vulnerable to show less mental strength.Failure to withstand petty misunderstanding and desire to hide face from true and independent judgement are other predominant features to late marriage.Again being unfaithful has become very common phenomenon triggered by being-modern attitude.Hence the priority of marriage has become less significant.

I think that some people are to controlled by lust to be able to settle down. Some people can't realize that they already have something great but they would rather fulfill their desire then pursue the relationship. It's hard to say why people aren't interested in marriage.

Nowadays people want to be independant and do not want to be bound by relationships too early.That is the reason they marry late.

Marriage is all about commitment and trust. Marriage throughout the years has lost its value, its lost its meaning. Previously, men and women were entering marriage with the idea that it was a life long commitment, now most couples give up after the honeymoon stage. This is a question I have so desperately wanted to ask all of my friends who call me up to let me know they are moving in with their boyfriend of some odd years, instead of getting married.

hello vine, I had a bunch of friends,girl friends who are on their early 30's and still single. One reason is,they are too busy with their careers. One of my friend say's,"i studied hard to achieve something and be a successful with my career,and,marriage is not enough reason for me to stop from what i am doing,i still had a lot of things to do...marriage can wait,if not,then,let it be" Yah,they don't care much about having a family,but,they care too much to build their career and the more they succeed,the more they want for stardom. One reason is,they love their jobs/career/status that,they think,having a family will be a hindrance for more success.

Hi,I think people first want to settle financially then they want to take responsibilty of their marraige life,& their's nothing wrong in it,Even my planning for my life is first to get respected degre and after that a good job then i will think about marraige.Marraige is definitely a good thing but after marraige we can't focus on our carrer.

Love someone and accept the person come into own life need lots of courage. Make a careless decision will suffer a lot in the end. Keep single for some people is a good choice also owing to not everyone is fit for get marriage. No matter which life we choose, the aim is make life get better.

well, that is trouble.. i dont think anyone should have problems to marriage... it is a wonderful think... maybe they are mentally challenged...

hey! i think these days the yougnsters have a lot of freedom to do want they want and to follow their passion and make a career! once they settle well in their career and live life accordingly they probably find it tough to live with someone by keeping their needs in mind too! plus they don't want anyone to restrict them in anyway!!

some singles do not marry because they don't want any interference in their career. they want to shoot the bird without anyone on the way. also, seeing the problems brought by overpopulation -- widespread poverty caused by joblessness and the absence of basic services, including housing. that's another good point. and it can also be related with what i was saying, people who prefer not to tie the know don't want to be part of the blight and they don't want to bring children into the world under the same circumstances.

i think that divorce rates are also a contributing factor as statistics suggest that people are getting divorced more than they are getting married. Whereas one time divorce was a rarity or taboo, most people nowadays know of a person or people who have been divorced. They themselves may have gone through the experience. So it would make sense why marriage has an uncertain aura surrounding it and many view living together as a way to get a taste for it with their partner and view it as being pivotal in deciding whether that person is who they want to be with for the rest of their lives. Also, although I think many people live together with the aim to marry, once you live together and realise that if you got married it would make no difference to your lives apart from perhaps changing a surname, the concept of marriage loses its value and is seen as a financial burden rather than an event after which your life changes.

I believe that marriage can be achieved in most countries around the world. The only problem is that we have lost trust for one another over the years. I can understand why there is so much fear in marriage. You see all these television shows that show you troubling lives and fights that occur in reality shows from all around the globe. Unfortunately these shows often display a negative spin on life and how untrustworthy and deceiving someone can be or become. There is also a few other factors that make some people stray away from the notion of marriage.
