They've been really lucky in their life and feel it is full as it is. On the other hand, those who say they want to get married NOW feel marriage is a Band-Aid to fix an empty hole inside. I know that sometimes that is my reason for wanting to get married, but I know that, before I can make someone ELSE happy, I have to make myself happy and be ok by myself...

Remember, I'm not talking about ANYONE on here, just an observation from personal experiences and people I know...

Thoughts??
And Cashmoney--you ain't right for that...

Sigmagrrl--

I had all the partying in the world when I lived in SoCal... I had friends up the ying yang... I massively dated... And I had a love life to envy... I was hanging out in bars actually being with the stars up in the Champagne room... I had it like dat dere... And I was truly happy with my life and way things were going...

But nothing in life lasts forever. And partying till 6 in the morning gets old--quickly. And I thought there was more to my life than just my friends.

And to basically put it to you, I got tired of sitting at the kiddie table during Thanksgiving...

So 2 years ago, I left SoCal for my soulquest to the wilderness of middle America and I freely gave up the fabulous life... Now, I think I am a better person for it. And I am married to a wonderful human being that gives me sanctuary and solace during my rollercoaster ride I have made in my life...

That's how it worked for me...
