[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1363891, member: 4319"] To be serious, married people always want you to get married so they don't suffer alone. Think about it. When you're single, do your unmarried friends that have long term girlfriends/boyfriends say "You know, when are you are you going to find a long term relationship?" No, no they don't. Why? Because although they may be in a committed relationship, they still have some freedom. It may be an illusion of freedom, but it's enough to allow happiness to survive. That illusion of freedom dies in a marriage. Their only hope is recruit you to join their team. As Louis C.K. says "You can end that sh*t with a phone call. I need plane tickets and bleach and stuff." That's the illusion of freedom that is so vital. As long as people have that illusion of freedom, they could care less about your personal life. Once they sign it away, they are alone in a world they never made. They need to make you, them. Then you'll get married and everyone with kids will ask you when you're having kids. Will childless couples ever ask you that? No. Why? Because their kid didn't rip the television off the wall the previous night. They have no reason to ask you that. Remember that. It's from the heart, brah. [/QUOTE]
