1) Your age?
17
2) Do you plan on getting married?
Illegal for me to do so, at least to the gender that I feel attracted to. Even if it was legal for me to get married, why would I? What does being married hold? A ring? A piece of paper? I don't need material things to feel that my partner and I are completely committed to eachother. The love and trust between us two should be enough, and we wouldn't need to show everyone in a ceremony.
3) Are you going to have any sort of cohabitation?
Yes.
4) Do you think cohabitation helps to avoid divorces, or increase the chances of divorce? Explain why.
Both, I suppose. I know what it's like to live with someone, see them every day, day in day out (family), and I know how it puts strain on a relationship. But, I would love to be able to wake up next to my boyfriend every morning, and to fall asleep in his arms every night. I suppose we would both be out most of the weekday due to work and whatever else we have to do, but I plan on spending nearly every weekend with them too.
5) Do you think love is essential for marriage? Explain why.
I don't think marriage is.. right. But if people do get married, yes, they should be in love with eachother. Marriage is supposed to be a sign of love.
6) Do you plan on having children? If so, why, and how many?
No. Annoying, time consuming, and they can put a strain on a relationship.
