Do you know what marriage means? The logic is you are not two seperate individuals after marriage. You are one entity until death parts you. If anything else parts you before death, it's on you both. So, before getting married, consider that fact. If you think something besides death may art you, then you're not ready for marriage.
Coming from a divorced family, I understand and want this yes. But I am not niave about statistics. With no fault divorce existing and the existence of shitty laws you never know how society can influence a person, even we'll meaning. For example, who's to say I don't end up in jail for a lifetime like Ross ulbrict for a victimless crime? I don't think she would divorce me for that, but I myself would say after I'd been in jail for certain number of years and exhausted appeals that I would tell her to divorce me. Same if I was paralyzed. I will never myself ask for a divorce but shit is complicated dude and no one goes into a marriage wanting a divorce yet 50% of marriages fail.
Then have kids , live together and just don't get married. Seems like you are missing the point of marriage.
What's the point of marriage and if it is something other than a legally binding contract with the government, why is the core distinction between being married and unmarried the existence of a contract with the government?
