Same can be asked of the girls about husbands/boyfriends.

Personally I think to be with the right person is one of the greatest things on earth. Problem is most of us choose the wrong one whether through bad judgement bad luck or bad timing.
And from my own point of view I always want what i dont have so if i'm single I want a gf and when i'm with a gf i want to be single lol...hence why I aint.
Anyway thats my 2 cents worth
Tried marriage once and won't be doing it again. I can't understand these people who get married 3 or 4 times. Marriage is just a piece of paper, it won't make things any more real or last longer.
a lot of people are instinctively envious and want what they dont have. so if they are married they wish to be single and if they are single they wish to be married.
“In life we don't always get what we want; hopes and dreams get washed away so easily, hearts are broken, chances are missed, and we always seem to end up right back where we started.”

As a single guy I don't particularly want to be married, I like my freedom etc. That is not to say I would not like a woman in my life — we all need to feel loved at some point and it can be comforting to know someone wants to be with you. It is getting the balance right that is the hard bit!
You know even though i have said in previous posts that i'm happy been single at the moment deep down i think i was kidding myself. Even though i really enjoy my times with the ladies here i feel as i'm nearing 40 i would now like nothing more than to find that someone special and settle down and eventually have kids. But by settling down i don't mean marriage as i'm not a big believer in marriage never have been it diffinelty doesn't qauratee happiness. And i've seen plenty of evidence of that in my locality alone that convinces me of that. A scary amount of marriage breakup's and some only lasting a very short time so that convinces me more that marriage isn't for me.
A woman in a man's life is an imperative .;)
I find now that I am single I want to be married and when I was married wanted to be single ! Funny old life!
Ha have you any idea how much a divorce can cost? Tax breaks don't cover it and you would learn that the first time round, so not a reason for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th that's for sure.
Maybe they just like to be the centre of attention and have a big party now and again?
Single, have mostly been single. I consider myself happy but do like the idea of lust leading to love. There's no one I want to marry, I've never been in love, I'm a cynical, independent bastard and I feel ill remain single :)
It's good to have a companion in life, to share life's up and downs
if the open relationship is smallhorn, tom and IDF, which one is the woman?
In the UK 42% of marriages break down & divorce & in Ireland 25% either separate or divorce. Figures in both countries are rising.
My personal opinion is that the people you are attracted to changes with age, people grow & develop, so as people age, many realise that the person that they married is not 'their soul mate' any longer.
I also believe staying together just because of children, is wrong. The children witness the angst & arguments & it effects them. It's more beneficial for them to grow up in a happy environment, if both parents share the up bringing but live separately & are happy, that is a better for the child's welfare.

How come a couple can have a great life together and as soon as they move in with each other it falls apart
The average age that people get married are much the same in both England & Ireland, 30-35 years old. Studies have shown that the older you get married the more likely you are to stay married, as both parties have tended to build a career & are happier within themselves.
