Reply to comment by VideoGamesForU in TIFU by realizing I’m in a practical relationship rather than a loving one. by [deleted]

But I don’t want it to be just a favor or doing the motions. I want someone to love me enough to want to marry me. What if he never gets there?

Don’t get me wrong, I know legally what marriage is. It’s a very serious contract. It’s a major commitment, and I would never take it lightly.

I mean if he doesnt jump from joy...maybe he just doesnt like the idea of wasting money? Have you ever thought that maybe he is content with how things are and he doesnt need a contract for that? Almost all of your posts are about your feelings. Not sure why you are so obsessed with that idea. He seems pretty normal.

I always hated the idea of marriage. Seemed utterly pointless. I was with my girlfriend for 8 years before I proposed. You are putting way too much emphasis on marriage. It's literally nothing but a party.

It's for your family to get to know each other. That's it. Marriage won't save your relationship. Marriage won't change anything. Literally not a thing will change. 2 weeks after your marriage will be the exact same as 2 weeks before your marriage. I don't know whta you are expecting, but that's not the solution.

I don’t expect anything to change from getting married. Getting married to save a relationship sounds like an awful idea.
