If you marry does that mean you are more committed to the person than if you just lived together?

ANGEL 2012/03/04 17:07:58
For some people, living together would not even be an option, due to the
pressures of family or even religious concerns, whether involved in
Christianity, Judaism, Scientology, Muslims, Hindu, etc. When I was
younger, living together was just considered taboo - not only for
religious reasons - but by society in general. Of course, the 60s and
70s changed the course of many of those rigid society expectations.

Do you think that those who marry are more committed to the person/relationship than those who choose to live together?

    No. You can be commited to someone, live together, and never get married. Some people just don't want to or don;t believe in marriage but that doesn't make them any less committed to their partner.

    Yes. Marriage is a commitment, living together is not.

    I've done both, didn't feel different about either situation. But, then, I don't have any religious hang-ups.

    When you have it in writing before the law of the land and you swear by God that you will make this person the only one for your whole life, it takes great courage and shows a deep commitment that is if you really mean what you are saying. Otherwise it is meaningless.

    So, you are saying, that because I am not married to my boyfriend, that our relationship is meaningless?
    That is definitely not true.

    You see the problem on here is that people either misread or misunderstand people very easily. What I was talking about that if you get married and make all those vows, if the vow is not meant by heart then it is meaningless to make the vow. It is always wise to ask people what they mean on here before you jump the gun.

    Yes, and that legal document issued by the state proves it.

    Yes, it gives you less temptation to walk away.
