Marriages are an outdated institution.

People just seem to go out with someone for one-night stands, which is the easy way out for people scared of commitment.  Young people of today get completely drunk and end up doing it with a complete stranger without contraception and cant remember a thing next morning while the girl could end up pregnant with a strangers child or mightn’t know who was the father.  This is leading to more and more single parented families and the people that get hurt the most is the innocent children in every case. A lot of relationships these days have no love and trust but just love they are only in it for one thing sex, money or just the sake of telling your mates I have a girlfriend or boyfriend.  In childish relationships one of the two end up straying and cheat with someone else and it all ends in anger, bitterness and hurt.  A lot of couple to seem to go out for a while have sex move into together before you know it they have two kids and they end up splitting up what happened to sex before marriage.   Underage sex is happening these days and the age for sex seems to be getting lower and lower as time goes on.  This has brought about single teenage mums who are not prepared for motherhood and fathers that don’t want to be any part of their child’s life.  Single parented mothers find it harder to have new relationships and makes it harder for them to trust another man after the last one deserting her.  This makes marriage seem so far away maybe not existent, because men don’t like to be left bringing up another man’s children.  People are spending their cash in other ways instead of saving it for their dream wedding day or to build a future for your future wife or husband.   People would much rather spend their money on cars, clothes, and holidays anything but saving.                  Some people seem very happy not getting married living the high life having nobody else to spend their cash on but themselves being able to flirt with any man or woman than takes their eye without worrying what your partner will think.  They can come and go as they please.  They don’t have to spend ages talking to a mother in law or father in law that they hate just for the sake of them liking you and so your partner doesn’t get married.  Weddings are also to big of a hassle and cost way too much money.  The amount of things you need to do for a wedding are endless for example church, flowers, reception, food and that isn’t the half of it.  Everything costs money and takes too much time to organize.  You don’t have anyone else telling you what to do.  You are free to live who you want to live with.  If you do get married you might separate and get a divorce, which takes a long time.  A lot of money if you have to hire a solicitor and bring your ex to court to half all your money, property belongings and you may even have to give up custody of your kids.                 If you wanted to get marriages back in fashion we could go to the government and ask for an ad’s campaign to try and get people interested in love and marriage again.  Get people to start up more dating agencies for people trying to find the “1” for them.  Someone could complain to pop band managers and tell the pop band to set a better example for adults and teenagers or else to their private life out of the limelight and out of tabloid newspapers where we read about them.  The advantages of getting married are that you are loved for most of your life and you always have someone there for you through sickness and in health, for richer for poorer till death do you’s part.  You will never be lonely and when you get married kids can come soon after for most people and kids always complete a family.  If you are married men mostly pay the bills and takes responsibility for the financial side of things so that takes alot of stress and bother of the women and men like working with figures so its best all round.  Men also do the DIY and gardening chores.  Women do most of the cooking and cleaning so and have to give birth to his children, which is the hardest job so it’s nearly fair.             Is it worth getting married?   That is the question we all want to no my honest opinion is that I don’t think it is because it causes a lot of unnecessary stress that you could do without.  Alot a lot of people would disagree with me because they want to settle down get married have children and have an easy life.  I no from experience of looking after my little brother the best thing is to stay unmarried not to have children because at the end of the day they are nice to look at but you be glad to hand them back at the end of it all.  I would be free to do what I want but who know but if the right man does exist you never know things could change.
