You freaking out? Grapetable, chill-out. The only reason why I started this thread was because you dared me to. At least, I have the balls to start this thread. Weren't you suppose to start this one? I dared you to do so, right? NO, noone has asked me for marriage! There isn't a proposal! If that were true, I wouldn't even bring it out in this forum because I consider my private life.......... my life. NO, I am not freaking out! Are you?

PeaceBlondie Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Graceless, I thought you were ballless. Oh well, I resemble the kid who never grew up. Whatever. Seriously, we needn't flood the general forum with endless topics about marriage. We do enjoy being agony aunts like Ann Landers, though. A marriage license, however, it just a piece of paper. And with that, can we just stop discussing this? If members wish to post, go ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapetable Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Such a tolerant Moderator...................you miss the point completely Mod...... Its really a good question GF............one of your better one's........dont deny authership It aint a piece of paper...........but I say again .......a public and legal declaration (of insanity some might say or minimise tax or get a spouse visa etc etc). There is nothing wrong with marriage or its institution but the people who enter relationships bugger it up. There are no extra rules tied to marriage than other commited relationships. It also sets a standard for those to really think about what they are entering. Its a formal commitment as opposed to informal live-together or other arrangement.

Colonel_Mustard Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Relationships are good or bad regardless of marriage. It's down to the couple themselves to make it work. So in my opinion it's just a piece of paper but a useful piece of paper in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamman Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 How long have you been posting here, dear Graceless? It appears you are being hazed. And handling it perfectly. If your new thread posts were truly boring, they would have been ignored, as my last one was. Your words point to curiosity and passion. The words of posters that attempt to drag you to a (more enlightened? pushed down?) place, seem to me dull. Blunt. Unpolished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The words of posters that attempt to drag you to a (more enlightened? pushed down?) place, seem to me dull. Blunt. Unpolished. About an hour or so ago. Yeah, I'm somewhat being hazed, but no worries. It's all in good fun! Besides, I push back when people push me! Human nature, you know! Thanks for the vote of confidence Jamman. It's nice to hear it from time to time!

PeaceBlondie Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Even if she were a troll, and even if she asks questions you think are silly, so long as people want to discuss the issues she raises, they seem to validate her posts.

meemiathai Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Why are people calling for the mods? Shouldn't we everyone be given freedom to start discussing whatever we want to as long as it does not break any forum rules? So for those who don't like it, just p... off pls! Glad that the mods aren't closing them for no good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have Personal Relationship Problems! My threads are mostly asking people's opinion or perspective about certain (or maybe controversial) things.

a2396 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 What's important is the couple's bond of commitment to each other. No peice of paper can hold this. When the relationship stops being satisfying and of mutual benefit and gratification, it will end - paper or no paper. I think in some ways a marriage certificate can be counter productive and "hamstring" the individuals freedom of thought and movement. Some may not like the feeling of being "roped in" and may lead to behavior they might not do otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaiGreg Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 To the OP. I've done quite a bit of research in this area. Marriage is NOT paper. NOR is matrimony. Polygamy is not a piece of paper, either. However, envelopes and sticky-notes are. But Marriage Certificates are issued as paper-based documents for the most part. They will be recorded as electronic documents more-and-more in the future. I hope this clears up the great confusion a few members are experiencing regarding this issue, -NG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzdocxx Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Hi GF I don't think you are a troll, but I am more interested in why all the posts having to do with love and so forth. I would like to hear your story, surely something is going on that has got love on your mind so much these days! Sorry if you already posted it before, but some of the threads get so many pages I can't keep up. Waiting with baited breath, z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
