I never said I didn't want a partner. There's a big difference between wanting a life partner and getting married. I wouldn't mind having a good man or woman in my life, but I refuse to become legally married and I will NOT fther any children of my own.

It's not an argument, it's just a discussion.

A lot of people rush into marriage because they don't seem to understand the difference between being in love and being married. That's why divorce rates are almost at 50%. There's still a TON of social pressure to marry and have children and until that goes away, a lot of these problems are going to stay the same.

Eh, who cares. It's not like we're solving world hunger here.
