[quote=Anonymous]I never met the right person. I never met a man I liked enough to marry.

I’ve had a number of long term relationships. Several of the men very much wanted to marry me, but I just wasn’t….excited or certain enough to make the leap.

I have always been on the fence about the kids and am fine with not having them, so I didn’t have that pressure. Also, it’s actually pretty hard to find a guy who wants to get married AND not have kids.

Now, I’m kind of like, eh. That ship has sailed. If I meet some great guy and it’s financially and legally beneficial for us to marry, I’m open to it.. But my current boyfriend just has so much baggage. I enjoy having him in my life, but being financially tied to him doesn’t make sense for either of us. I’d screw up his kids ability to get financial aid, for example. His ex might try to argue that my assets mean he should be paying more child support. I just don’t want to wade into that.

I’m also seeing my friends’ marriages play out and honestly, in most cases, the men are getting a lot more out of the marriage than the women are. Marriage can really add to a woman’s workload and emotional stress.[/quote]
