Engaged for 11 years before getting married? What was the rush?
|
|
|
|
|
At first we were underage;
Then we were not economically independent;
Then we weren't living in our own home (we lived in my parents house);
Finally we managed to live with my wage but we didn't have money for the wedding.
So no rush, also we're not religious, the wedding served only to grant some more legal rights to us

I have to think marriage nowadays has more to do with taxes than religion.

Taxes, assistance, legal rights abroad... it's like an insurance.
Of course it is meaningful, but not mandatory. Bit since we don't plan on splitting up it is deifintely the best move.
Also, keeping a seat on the train for "my girlfriend" is different from keeping it for "my wife"

Y'know, phrased like this, one sounds like "I'm being nice because I want to", vs "I have no choice but to do this, or else I will suffer the consequences".
Yeah, I'm that cynical.

I was on an oil platform in the North Sea when I first registered, and here I am on another one half way between Iran and Qatar. At least it is a bit warmer. Heat index was 54'C today, normal for this time of year. Pass me an ice-cream.......
