He has a lot of valid points. I do ask myself, what would change? If I'm already in a good relationship and things are wonderful, can it get better than that? You'd have to be crazy to be in a bad relationship and get married and think it's going to get better.

I also agree with you on the fact that we've been doing things backwards or "all over the place" and that's one of the main reasons marriage crumbles.

I think it all depends on the partner you end up with. I have a friend that I don't think any horrible deed his wife does would ever make him leave. It's been drilled into him from youth that you do not divorce.

I'm on the fence, but I'm open to someone taking me off the fence and putting me on the right side. We'll see. Lol.

Great post, great response.

Hey Nightfall,
I watched both the original vid and your reply, and what a difference in delivery. The brother in the original marriage was giving his opinion from a hurt place. Its A-Ok to deny marriage in your own life but it just seem to me that he has dealt with needy perhaps overbearing women alllll his life (perhaps this also mirrors his own neediness..just maybe?)....it'll turn a man sour, I've seen it.
Personally, I value marriage not just as an instituion but as a foundation for building a family.
There is a lot of selflessness and sacrifice in marriage and it scares people but the rewards are great...How do I know this? Because I observe people with genuinely loving marriages.The actual wedding is something I also look foward to as a woman, getting dressed up and what not, but its also an opportunity to bring family together.
He didnt utter the word family all in that piece hmmmmmm

Great response, excellent vlog!!!!

P.S Thanks for the Menage a Talks shoutout...can't wait for the new season!!!!!

Relationship advice said...

You've got a video response (private) coming.

Generally speaking, if you don't know yourself and love yourself unconditionally, you cannot be prepared to do the same for marriage. There's so much more than signing a paper and the paper is a formality. Once I see that I've conquered the formalities, but the relationship is still poisoned or seemingly downward in progression, there's a serious need of reassessment. Thus said, MARRIAGE isn't for everyone but neither are RELATIONSHIPS
