Top 10 Reasons to Not Get Married

I think getting married is a good thing but here are some reasons that can keep you away from doing it...
The Top Ten
1 It's a serious commitment of time and energy

Well, yes.

But then again, I'm willing to commit to it if I get married. There's always responsibilities to take, and to share the responsibilities with someone is something I'm hoping the other will do with me. I would have to tell her that, and hope she is ready. Because I know life will stay hard throughout. Good couples would always stick together and should not be driven away by menial things.

Another reason why people don't get married is because one of the spouse kept on nagging about getting married when the other spouse is NOT 100% ready to get married, make a strong vow/commitment and to have kids. Plus, a situation like that can cause an argument and a relationship to end. So, both spouses should be ready to all those 3 things that I've mentioned, NOT one or the other.

There's lots of commitment to it

2 Increases arguing

Mostly the men (and also his family) starts the argument.

3 Increased financial problems
4 Not being able to spend time with friends

Who are you married too? This is only a trait of an abusive relationship. Dad and Mom spent time with friends all the time.

5 Trying to provide enough for a family
6 Unjustifiable marriage laws

Like consummating a marriage?

I hate the double standard.

7 You gain weight more quickly

As long as you exercise you should be fine.

Exercise, dudes!

8 Gaining a habit of relying on one individual for every emotional need
9 Cheating

That is an AWFUL thing to do to someone

One of the biggest reasons to stay single.

10 Divorce can cost a lot of money

Divorce is one of the best reasons to stay single. Approximately 40-50 percent of first marriages and 60 percent of second marriages end in divorce. Getting married is easy. Divorce is complicated. Why bother?

The Contenders
11 Some marriages are toxic

Some people end up marrying someone is domineering, jealous, possessive, cheats or abusive. Because of this they are miserable.

12 Weddings are expensive

Marriage is a waste of time, money, energy, and resources. Stay single!

Yes they can be but they don't have to be.

Too much money

13 Marriage can be isolating
14 Sharing your things with your partner
15 Marriage can put friendships at risk
