I might offend you all that are already married, and that is great if there are good long lasting marriages out there, but that doesn't mean its for everyone. My best friend keeps talking about getting married and I'm trying hard not to tell her my true objections. Firstly she is too young, she had a shakey start with her BF to begin with and now she wants to get married? I understand she was raised far more conventially than me, but she used to be so independent when she was single and now she is completely codependant, it just boggles my mind... -Same sex marriage is still not legal
-Marriage has sexiest connotations in general The irony is my own natal Venus is in the house of Marriage, ha!
Who else is adverse to marriage?

What about their better tax breaks, lol. H8I'm greatly bugged about same sex marriage not being legal across the board, but boycotting marriage on that front I'm not so sure. I'm not averse to it completely, I'm averse to people rushing into it without even knowing themselves first and foremost. Looking to marriage or relationships to fill some big need. And then the drama and bs that follows. And then being their friend having to listen to all of it, lol. Like, where is the rest of your life? But some people are very into it. If I were to get married I wouldn't want to live with him...he can live a bit down the block, or maybe next door...depending on how much he bugged me and my personal space Sun sq Uranus here, Asc & Dsc rulers. Venus wise, it's in the 6th conj Moon. But I doubt I would as I quite fear commitment. He'd have to be very respectable. Regarding sexist connotations, that's true traditionally, but in the past 40 years or so it's changed quite dramatically. But I get where you're coming from. IP: Logged |

If I hadn't met my Leo husband I would have been happy to be single. He felt the same way and never wanted to get married again after the he11 known as his ex-wife. Sometimes when two people meet, you just know that it is going to lead to getting married LOL... and we did. That was over 4 years ago and we've lasted through two domestic moves and two International moves plus two deployments to Iraq. I would never get married for the sake of getting married and I also would never begrudge someone for not wanting to commit. That is the beauty of life, we are all so different but I will say one thing.. never say never... Bear and I both did that and look what happened hee hee..

Me? Bored? Married to a Leo and bored? ha.. not likely. It is hard to get bored when you are married to a man that has to leave at least once a month to go to the field, deploys to Iraq and most importantly, keeps this Sag incredibly busy and happy. There are times when I wish we had boredom. He could deploy at any time and I'll tell you this, nothing is like telling the person you love goodbye and not knowing if they will ever come back. But, I would choose this life again and again if it meant being with Bear. Besides, I remember plenty of times being bored on my own (I was single longer than I have been married). There is nothing I can't do now that I did when I was single, with the exception of dating and let's face it, dating can be boring as well. IP: Logged |

I never wanted to get married until my most recent relationship, which started when I was thirty-five. (He doesn't even want to date me anymore, so, )I don't believe that the state or the church should have anything to do with people's sex lives. Who we choose to be intimate with should not determine how we are taxed. That said, since the sexist and archaic institution is still state-supported, I think all opposite-sex couples should boycott marriage until same-sex marriage is allowed where we live. But in this last relationship, I had this vision of looking into his beautiful eyes and telling him I would be with him and only him forever. I have Cancer DC and Moon-Saturn and Venus in Cancer in my 7th house. My Part of Marriage (for a woman) is conjunct his Moon (0) and my own NN...my Part of Marriage (general) is conjunct his Jupiter (1)....his Briede-DC is conjunct my Moon-DC, my Briede-IC is conjunct his Mars-Union, and his Groom-Juno is conjunct my Jupiter. So maybe the whole thing of imagining marrying him is just my age, or maybe it's all that wedding-y stuff in the synastry, like I look at him and see myself as a (badly-spelled) bride and him as a groom? And no, thankfully I did not mention this to him in our short relationship before he left me. IP: Logged |

Also, my packed 7th house overlays his empty 7th house,so my Cancer stellium and (in Placidus or Koch) part of my Leo fills his 7th. Before him, I was in an almost 15 year, committed, marriage-like relationship and opted not to officially marry. IP: Logged |

marriage is likely to have connections to jupiter and juno, venus would represent what you value most i've never been married and don't think i ever will (I'm 37) but i do think everyone needs to do what makes them happy, marriage has been successful (duration wise) in the past because women were dependent on men for quite a lot. I think if you can make it work then it's fantastic, I do like to hear a good story of marriages that have worked but sadly they are rare, it's very difficult because we pair up with people for all sorts of reasons. If I'd met the right one when I was younger then maybe but I'm fast losing hope. IP: Logged |

I'm on the bandwagon of not getting married. It could be that i'm too selfish or afraid of boredom. Either way, If anyone else decides to marry, I'm happy for them. It's just not for me....been there done that....IP: Logged |

same sex marriage is legal in England!I think it's becoming less sexist... more women aren't changing their names to their partners'... most marriages don't have dowries any more. I think I would probably change my surname, but then I have pretty strong Cappy influences in my chart... I like things traditional haha. IP: Logged |

I've been married two times. I met My first husband when I was 15. My second husband when I was 19. My second marriage last in 15 year. I love to been married. If it is an good relationship, but I'm more happy as an single woman even If really love men. Moon, venus/NN/mars in house 11, moon square uranus . When my second marriage ended I was in dramatic relationships, all the time. Passion, love, trouble and so separation in a repeat again and again. IP: Logged |
