Ah, so it's logical that long-lasting relationship ends up in marriage? I see, I suppose it will look unnatural if it didn't, wonder if people will find it disgraceful. Weren't you the one who said that marriage does not equal having children/family? I think it starts out other way round, first family was important then came marriage as legal bind and security to keep other men away from married woman so there won't me any more children running about with single mother and many stepfathers. It's interesting that even animals get aggressive when someone else tries to "steal" someone's partner. So in the human world woman has more security in marriage, to be protected, provided the safety and supply to create a family. But don't you find it ironic that it's not like that most of the times? So many divorces, values change but idea of marriage did not? Everyone think marriage equals making family and most women want that, and some men are okey with it, but do they realise that it's not going to be the same old family style as it was previous centuries? Do they really want to make children? Is it just because "to reproduce" and keep the population? Just to be a mother, because it's a good image in society? Boast about having kids, which makes you a real man? I admire the real parents, who actually wanted children and live lives together, make team work with whole family, but I see so many people with divorced families, cold relationship between parents and genuine indifference in their children's lives, it's cruel. Why they do marry? Because they feel they have to, just like lying to kids about Easter Bunnies because everyone else does that. I wonder if getting married for sheer love and to spend time together is appropriate. Yet you'll still get pressured to have children, it's a norm in many cultures, nations and societies. No matter where you go you'll be judged regardless. I think they don't make bonds but feel that "responsibility", an instinct to protect their children and continue to keep the population, surviving. Animals can be cruel as well, for crocodiles eat their children if they know they can't keep as many or simply due to hunger, many males leave their "wives" because they did their duty and mothers just keep rising their cubs, or completely leave them alone, leaving the nature and natural selection choose who survives and who not. It simply seems that everyone has own idea of parenting and idea of marriage.

Natural, you say? How did it come about? Is it really all about security? I'm pretty sure you mentioned that huge percentage of divorces that happen in early marriages. Will you marry your friend just in case they won't run away from you? It's quite an interesting topic. Do animals marry as well? Or was marriage a natural bond that happens in Nature but human beings made it into ritual? Oh, I wonder.

Sorry for the late reply, this is regarding the marriage topic: I agree but I still view it quite subjective, for me everyone are perfect and imperfect at the same time. I think I take too much of rational thought and also I like diversity, it would be boring to have people with completely same likes and ideas, there should be something odd or even "bad" to colour our world. What I want to say is that I love people in general and find them fascinating, I'm also very adaptive person, I just can't stop thinking that I can accustom to anyone's life if they are ready to tolerate me and think that there won't be difference. I might thinking too much, I might taking a cold view on this but I really wonder, why we even think about these things? Do you think marriage is necessary in our lives?

You are just interpretting it in a way that it makes you feel better with yourself. The whole situation can't get more depressing than that. http://37.media.tumblr.com/15b5859254bbf9329fa713a6b3f17380/tumblr_n5a8faMZ5C1tozm2ho1_500.gif

Remember, the null existence will always be null regardless of what level you're comparing it with :D There's your answer.

If he's an ant, then you are as well nonexistent. For that solely reason, I may as well ignore what you actually see me as or not, because that would be the same for me as being aware. Didn't you say a Queen should never say those things out loud? What a contradictory noisy man.

I don't know why you waste your time explaining something one can easily understand. If you so think he's a queen, why don't you just put all your attention on him? You admitting it's nice to disagree with me because it entertains you is reason enough to interpret how you actually see me as. Truly sad.

Sanfi, stop putting on my mouth words I didn't say. People might think you're desperate or retarded. But, what can I say? It's not something I can burden myself with.
