So everyone knows how I feel about marriage, not now, not anytime soon, possibly not ever, just let things happen. And even though I have this very off view of marriage, I saw something this morning that made me very mad. I slept in this morning and watched the Today show. This morning they had a special on prenups. They said that more than half of marriages these days have them. And really, this makes me more terrified than ever to someday make that marriage decision. I don't want one and I won't marry a guy that asks me. Do I have a reason? No, not really. I just don't want to wind up in a situation where I will get divorced simply because it says that I should on paper and not try to work on my marriage. I know that there are hard times in marriages, I know that they don't always work out, but I do think that I would want to try. Above all, I want to marry someone that I KNOW I will stay married to. If I don't, then I get divorced and we can be humans and talk through it with each other, I don't need a piece of paper to tell me what I have to give him. Just thinking about it makes me more terrified than ever to make that leap. Oh well, don't have to and this is what makes me happy. :)
