I am not opposed to the idea of marriage.I am just not sure it is the right thing for me. Every time I think I might want the companionship of a spouse,I go hang out with my married friends and the mood passes quickly.
When I look at my coupled friends,I wonder how many of them are really happy. They say they are but I see how they act and I question whether they really are.I know that sounds cynical but I enjoy being single. It isn't because I can go out and screw around,it is because I can do whatever I want when I want.I like the independance of it.So if I ever do get married,I know it will have to be to someone who travels alot because I won't want them under my feet all the time.That applies to almost anyone not just a spouse.The only exception is my small niece who lives with me.She is the coolest person I know.
