There's nothing wrong with that Girl
The key is in finding the right person.. that was my problem when I got married.. I knew I shouldn't, did it anyway.. and it didn't work out.. well that, plus he's an assclown

Absolutely if you find the right person. But marriage for marriage's sake? NO WAY!

The American Dream isn't an American dream for nothing. It's what many strive for. It's normal to want it.

Unfortunately in the real world people find out way too late that Mr or Ms "Right" is in actuality Mr or Ms "Wrong". And by then they've been married already

I think the unfortunate delusion is that marriage makes things more permanent and enables you to focus on fixing the problems in the relationship because you don't have to worry about giving up.

It may have been that way at one time, but it isn't anymore, and as a result you find that the problems you thought you could fix by marrying them end up getting worse until the marriage ends--or worse, doesn't end.
