I don't want to get married. It seems like a big headache. The wedding day is all about the bride... how is that even fair?

I was a child of divorce. My parents made me choose sides and for that reason I won't be getting married, even if I'm madly in love with my gf.

I have a lot of insecurities about my height, hair, and weight. I refuse to get married because of them. Yes, I'm a guy

Marriage seems expensive. Not just the wedding but afterwards too. I live a simple life and I don't want to complicate it.

The reason why I don't want to get married is because I don't want a woman to come in and judge the types of things I choose to spend money on. I like to gamble

I refuse to get married. I want to have a life partner, but I want to be open to other experimentation with men too.

Marriage is a huge commitment. I know myself- committing to one woman forever is not something I believe I'd be able to do successfully.

I'm a 38 year old man. No I don't want to get married or have kids. I don't even date a lot, I just love my independence and focusing on making my career great.

I don't want to get married because all my friends that do, never sleep with their wives anymore. That's not worth it to me.

I'm not a religious guy at all, so I don't see the point in getting married. Not trying to be offensive but it's just my belief.

I don't want to get married ever. I can see myself being a dad one day, and I do want a family, but without the paperwork.

I refuse to get married because I'm afraid of ending up with a woman who asks for a divorce. I believe marriage is forever.
