    @hopefulwanderer said:It also depreciates marriage as being a toxic arrangement which aims to bring ‘security’ to lives which by their very fabric are ‘insecure’, causing people to feel as though they are closed in to tight boundaries, thus creating tension and resentment.

    I’m wrestling with how I feel on marriage now as well. I grew up thinking it was the definitive answer to finding true love. As I’ve grown older and had relationships of varying degrees with men, I’ve realized that I may never get to the point where I can promise forever to someone. How can I trust that someone else can give me their ‘forever’ when I can’t even promise my ‘forever’ to them? Maybe two can be happy in a long-term monogamous relationship. Perhaps if both had that kind of freedom, they would find the true romance in choosing daily to live and love together rather than being legally bound.
