a couple im very friend with gonna have a baby in a couple of months ,and do plan to get married soon afterwards
they fit very well together and are already living and are engaged to each other , i guess getting married wont change anything to them just for the taxes and a new name for my friend
but i think like some of u said , when people are feeling good together getting married is like the last step in the committement scale ....a really beautiful thing to me
i do plan to get married in few years..... |

I think individualism is the root cause of much of the divorce we see today. Too many people believe that their wants and needs are all that is important or at best they are of paramount importance thus they give too little consideration to their partner or the family unit. This leads to people acting in their own interest, which often conflicts with their partners... if both are acting for their own interests then when they conflict the marriage will be dissolved.
Nietzsche stated "the will to marriage is the will of two creators to create something greater then those who created it, and in doing so go under." (thus spoke zarathustra part II). What he's stating here is that marriage is and must be a choice by the two individuals to create a new entity that is greater then each of the individuals... this new entity is the couple. In forming the couple the two individuals must give up their individual will in favour of the couple's will. I agree with this completely. Once married, individuals need to give greater consideration to what is in the best interest of the combined couple then what is in the best interest of each of the individuals. If each person always acts in the best interest of the couple then the marriage will be a success and both partners will share in that success and happyness. As soon as one of the partners puts their will above the best interest of the couple then the marriage suffers. |

See? I knew it. I AM a good girlfriend. :o
I am all about putting my partner and “us” first before my own selfish needs. I’m probably the most selfless person when I’m in love. |

nigga please... that idiot wouldn't, nay couldn't, be quite so elequent or relevent... and certainly he couldn't possibly understand Nietzsche. If it were Dr. Phil talking he would have said something more like this.....
"Ya'll can't be behaving like you're single. Ya can't win a tug of war if everybody on the team is pulling the rope in different directions. Fruit salad ain't a salad unless it's all in one cup, the way ya'll are acting yer just peachs and pineapples in different bowls." |

| yea but a majority of society is on that level, so dr. phil is actually a genius for knowing how to talk their language, and still get his point across. |
