I Do (NOT!).

Marriage

Isn't it funny how some people can getting married after a whirlwind courtship whereas others can breakup after being together for 10 years?
I wonder, what's the rush?

So eager to spend the rest of their lives together that they can't wait to tie the knot and bind themselves legally till death?

How can these people be so sure of their commitment? So sure of that the other party is The One? So sure that they won't find something terribly disagreeable with their Significant Other in due course?

Too often we hide our true selves from those we like in order to make a good impression.

It takes about 1 year for all the gross bits to surface (or for your preconceived, infatuated bubble to burst, whichever comes first).

It also takes about nearly a year (or more!) before you can fart, burp and scratch your ass in front of your bf/gf.

It will then take about another year for you to get over the gross bits and reach a compromise. It's not easy to change yourself you know!


There's nothing wrong with marrying a relative stranger, of course! It's just that I don't think I could marry someone before I am completely comfortable with him.


**Sidenote: Can you imagine if pretty girl and Boutique Owner BF got married 3 years ago?
Wah, what does that mean? Divorce ah?
