I like the idea of having life partners, but I am poly so I want to commit to multiple people. I am getting legally married in a month, but that doesn't mean I won't make that commitment to other partners.

Already married. Going on 10 years married, 15 together.

Yep, most definitely. Does it count if it's for the second time?

If my husband and I were no longer together, another marriage would only happen if I met someone that I wanted to marry. The idea of being married without a specific person in mind is to me like putting the cart before the horse. I don't think or consider it unless I'm with someone that I love and then the idea of marriage enters the picture because I want to make that commitment to him, specifically.

I Want To Marry My Master. :3

I'm already married.

We're getting married in about 7 months. I suppose we really don't have to get married or anything. I don't see it as a religious ceremony and neither does he. We're getting married because we want to be with each other for the rest of our lives and would like to enjoy the financial benefits of being married.

I'd love to get married one day but it is highly unlikely. I'm in a relationship with a poly man that is already married, so I can't really marry him. I feel very much loved and in a way, I feel like we are already married. I'm just content with having his love and support right now.

WHY? Because I wanted a stable, COMMITTED (legally and socially) relationship, with a STABLE environment to bring up children.

Say what you will, but statistics in 2012 STILL show that a MARRIAGE LICENSE still ends up to overall higher family income, higher children achievement scores, less legal issues with both criminal and civial issues of all kinds...etc. I won't even try to make the correllation about why these things are true, but go research it yourselves.
Our daughter...very much a child of this decade, felt the same way and did the 1. Dating and career, then 2. Marriage, and now, some day, wants chidren. Anyone care to spell out why that way is, in any way, WORSE then he alternatives?
We wish everyone happiness, but for me, the "traditional route" sure seemed to work and since WE have a long, loving happy marriage, as did BOTH our parents and since our daughters in laws, likewise, have a long, happy marriage, we kind of set a standard and model. She is living that now. Maybe those whose backgrounds were different DO have reason to feel marriage "ain't what it used to be", but for us, it STILL IS. less

Our oldest daughter has the same issue, "We don't need to get married." I don't get it, but then again, it isn't MY life. So, I don't have a say in it. She's been with the same man for years, they've lived together for years. But, it isn't my choice. It's her life and I'm just going to let her live it.
I got to make MY own choices so I'm leaving her life up to her.

Married 7 Years and counting

This is pretty much what my hubby says about ladies his age, which is your age as he is about to be 43. He couldn't find one that didn't already have a lot of baggage that involved and ex husband and children. It wasn't the fact that they had a previous relationship, it was the fact that they wouldn't let things go, so they would cry about what happened to him. He had the same thing, recently divorced with two children, so he didn't mind someone who had the same, but he wanted to have fun while they wanted to feel sorry for themselves.

I felt the same way about women, but I just so happened to get lucky and met someone older by a few yrs (43 here) and now I want to marry her. I never thought I could find someone without kids, without baggage and damage or mental illness at my age.
I personally couldn't stand the people my age. I never did get along with them too well. None of them were ready to start their lives and I was far past ready. So, it lead to me meeting an older man.
We already are married, but the main reason we got married was for the legal stuff. We already has a person commitment to each other, but in order to have the same name as my children, health insurance, and legal say should anything happen; we had to get married. It wasn't something we did right away because we didn't find it necessary until our first child was 1.5years old. We are glad we are married.

I've been married for 9 years and we've been together for 13.
09/18/2012
Maybe it would be nice.
09/18/2012
We are planing on getting married maybe sometime next year.
09/18/2012
One day soon I hope
09/18/2012
It's not something I've ever put much thought into. If it happens, it happens, I guess. It's not one of my life goals or anything. I can't see someone sticking with me that long due to my illness.
