why didnt u get married?

[justine520]

i didnt get married becuz i didnt think it was the right time.  im glad no one pressured us.  well its been two years now im i kinda wanna tie the knot but im scared.  i dnt want to get divorced later on.  i love him and we've been together for 4 years but i have a problem.  i always tend to think things out too much.  i start thinking about statistics and all that stuff. (not many young couples last)  its not like much will change.  we already got a baby, live together, share income, we do all the marriage stuff we're just missing the rings.  i guess im just scared bcuz im only 19 and i havnt even gone out to a party.  i dnt have friends and my bf is already so jealous,  i think he'll just get worst if we got married.  idk i guess ill just wait until he decides to pop the question.   so what about u?

I am married and have been for a lil over a year.It wasent scary for me.I always knew I would marry my so anyway so i figured might as well do it.Its not really any different than living together.

with my first born's dad I didn't get married b/c he wasn't a good man, sory honey, but you gotta be careful of that jealousy, sorry if the "honey" bit offended you at all, but anyway....my current guy (i'm pregnant w/ his babies) has proposed but I refuse to get married until the babies are born and i'm over post partum and have gotten a lil bit of my figure back and can leave the kids w/ someoen for a week for our honeymoon (london) I hope......I don't personally care for marriage, but I need to b/c I would be devastated if smething happened to him and he was in the hospital and I had to wait for his family to get updates....and be included on decisions to be made for his health....good luck

me and my so are getting married in may we have been wanting to get married for a really long time why we didnt get married sooner was because we didnt have the money then i got pregent with my lil girl which she is 2yrs now i know this is going to take alot of money and planing

I will tell my reason for not getting married before my daughter was born, but I don't want anyone to judge me.  I was only with my SO (at the time) for 3 weeks when I got pregnant.  I thought I was done ovulating, and I was sure I wouldn't get pregnant, so we "did it", well, a few weeks later, I found out I was preggo.  We didn't get married until she was 4 months old, and we were together for a year.  Things happened out of our control, but if I had it to do over again, I wouldn't change it for the world, I love my hubby, and I couldn't live without my daughter, and I am glad I got pregnant with her, and now we are married anyway!

I HAVE TWO KIDS WITH MY MAN NOW AND WE ARE STILL NOT MARRIED WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER GOING ON 6 YEARS IN AUGUST. WE WANTED TO GET MARRIED BEFORE OUR FIRST WAS BORN BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO GET MARRIED JUST BECAUSE I TURNED OUT PREGNANT I DON'T THINK THAT SHOULD BE A REASON TO RUSH INTO IT. THEN WE HAD MY SECOND SON AND WE STILL ARE NOT MARRIED I WAS ACTUALLY VERY INTO GETTING MARRIED AND WAS ALWAYS LIKE WHEN ARE WE GOING TO DO THIS? I HAVE MY ENGAGEMENT RING BECAUSE HE PROPOSED TO WHEN I WAS PREGNANT WIT MY FIRST. BUT WE HAD BEEN HAVING ISSUES BECAUSE HE IS NOT VERY COMMUNICATIVE SO WHEN WE GET INTO ARGUMENTS HE BLOWS SAYS STUPID THINGS AND HE TENDS TO BLOW EASILY WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO DOING IT BUT I BACKED OUT I TOLD HIM I WASN'T GOING TO MARRY HIM IF THERE WERE ISSUES NOW BECAUSE IF WE GOT MARRIED WITH THE ISSUES THEY WOULD ONLY CONTINUE AND PROBABLY ESCALATE. SO I TOLD HIM I THINK WE SHOULD TAKE SOME THERAPY TOGETHER TO GET SOME STUFF OUT AND CLEARED UP AND THEN WE CAN MAYBE START MAKING A MOVE TOWARDS MARRIAGE. I DON'T WANT TO END UP DIVORCED I AM SCARED TO END UP LIKE MY SISTERS AND MY MOM THEY ARE ALL DIVORCED AND I WANT TO BE THE ONE TO BREAK THAT CYCLE THAT IS WHY I REFUSE TO RUSH INTO MARRIAGE.

I would've been married but I loved him but wasn't in love with him because I really didn't know what love was.  My daughter came into my life and now I know what love is and, because of this love for her, I've decided to give her all my attention so I don't want a man.

When my bf & I met it wasn't something we intended to do...it just happened. I was in an relationship of 8 going on 9 years, and he was in an relationship of 4 years, and we were both on the verge of getting married. We were friends for about a month, and then lovers for a few months. We both decided to end our relationship with or other halves and be together. 2 years we were together before we had our daughter, but he proposed to me twice before that. I denied the first proposal because we were just sleeping with each-other, and the second time was because I was pregnant. I told him that I would like to get married when the time is right, and the only reason is because we love each-other. Not for any other reason. He is a wonderful man and he takes care of our daughter and I. I just wanted to share my story with you!

Well, I'll probably catch some flack for this one, but I didn't marry my son's father because I got pregnant on our first date. We stayed together for a year in an attempt to "do the right thing", but we couldn't stand being around each other once we got to know one another. He started cheating on me shortly after moving in, and made it clear that he had no intention of stopping. I finally dumped him.

I did marry my daughter's father. With him it was love at first sight. We got pregnant on purpose three weeks after we started dating, and married 6 months later. We've now been married for 7 years, and we are still happy.

I have been with my bf for 3 yrs now.   We have discussed marriage many times but I knew we still had a few things to work on before we jumped into marriage (finances mostly).  Well I am now 35 weeks pregnant.  I do not have a ring on my finger yet but my SO says he doesnt want me to think he is proposing b/c I'm having his child.  We love each other very much and even though I want to be his wife I'm not in too much of a rush b/c I know it will happen one day.

We did not get married because when I found out I was prego with my first son we had only been together for about 2 months and we werent on that level yet...we were crazy about each other, but young and didnt think just because we were having a baby we should get married. So we stayed together and got to know each other through the pregnancy and it has been about a year in a half and we are engaged now and soon to be married with a second baby boy on the way. We just needed to see where each others heads were at because it is not good to jump into a marriage so soon like that, and the baby wasnt planned or anything, I mean we had just started a relationship but are love grew stronger over time and I dont know what I would do without him or my son!
