How do you feel about marriage today?

July 14, 2018 8:23pm CST
This generation isn't engaging in marriage like the older generation. We are untrustworthy, dishonest and deceitful,living in this world today. Do you trust what the world says about marriage"living together as a way of not committing to one another,to escape the responsibility of taking care of a wife, husband"or children.We are not guided by the spirit of God,Who knows best God or man?.

I don't think marriage is for everyone. Ive been committed to the same man for 5 years. We love each other and have been through more.than most married couples. I don't need a piece of paper to know that he loves me.

Marriage is a gift from God. Not everyone has it. Once you have it, treasure it and make more memories. Sometimes we are called to be single because God wants it to be that way. Just accept it.

What I meant was some are called being single, is maybe that's your divine purpose in life.

@Raybowja nice post. What do you call those people who enjoys their singlehood sleeping with so many partners and also get success in marriage?

Marriage is sacred. But then, I think marriage is not like a bed of roses. It needs trust and loyal. Now, it doesn't work as it should be. Divorce will be the answer.

Marriage isn't going to work if you go by your own understanding. If you be guided my God's word then you and your spouse will have a happier married if you believe and trust God's word and apply it to your life.

@Raybowja That's an ideal thing to consider. God should be at the center of every relationship. By the way, welcome to myLot.

@MALUSE You have a point. Some people can be of what you had mentioned. I am not generalizing that God-fearing people can have a happy marriage.

@Raybowja I wanted to get married and have kids but instead of carrying a child to full term I had a miscarriage and never had children. Instead I had pets.

@Raybowja I am way too old and never want to get married again.

O so sorry i hope one day you will get married and be able to have children we just have to pray to God that you will carry a child full term. I had a miscarriage too,and often wonder if it was a girl. I have 3 son's and no girls so i spoil my grandchildren the girls.

I have an experience in relationships and living together. It was good. After two partners, I have a husband now. I trust myself, it means that I will never let him do something bad for me or my family. And I am 24 y.o. Maybe the youth you communicate with is silly or untrustworthy, but there are many smart and thoughtful people in the world, just change your circle

@Raybowja I am not interested in "some people." The majority is good. I have a decent religious education

I never said all people are guided my wordly lust. There are real people who actually do engage in marriage that is good. But some people engage in marriage and they are married to some one else husband or wife and they don't know these things did you know that. Information in the bible please study.

@MashaVickina. I am so happy you are educated in the word i just wish everyone were. I know what you mean I'm not married either. I was supposed to be married to this guy and the day after we got married,a friend from his home town came over and told me," you know he has a wife in Georgia" I was shocked because he told me he never been married. So i called the court house in Georgia and asked about his marriage there and they said to write a letter to get the information about his marriage so i did and he was married. So i got a divorce. I never married anyone else. After i became a Christian i learned about marriage and that is why im not married today because everyone can't get married a second time. Som people don't know the truth so if God send some one my way that's a Christian and marriage able i may consider ir again but until then i will remain single.

I'm not getting married because there aren't enough rich virgins around and I hate doing dishes.

Hey if you don't want to get married that is fine. Im kinda set in my ways too. I was looking for a husband but as time went on the older i get the less likely i will engage in marriage,unless I'm smitten by love and he is able to marry,and yes i hate doing dishes too.

We should not marry for "fear of God", but because we feel that we trust the person we want to live with and we are ready to give them our love, our patience and our trust. I know many NON married couples that are hundred times better than those married just to please their families and to appear "perfect" in the eyes of people.

My marriage to be honest is so so. I am okay if we are together or end up living separately. But honestly I am not inlove anymore. I dont feel beautiful I don't feel myself, but I can live like this but I don't know until when. I guess it is better to feel numb.

Sorry to hear that you're not in love anyone. Some time our spouses don't treat us well i understand that well . I had one two. But i learned to trust God's word to guide my life not my own understanding If i every get married again i know how to love my husband and to treat him well. The scriptures said love your wife as you love yourself if you love yourself you will know how to love your spouse give God knowledge a try maybe you will love yourself and spouse again.
