I would agree- and not agree. Most things should be done with purpose- even if that purpose is simply to have fun in a moment. When we are too rigid we miss most of what life offers. If you intend to fly kites and there is no wind- do you go home and say a beautiful sunny day at the beach is a waste of time because you can’t do what you care to do, or do you salvage the day? So I think it’s important not to play with peoples hearts or treat humans as toys- but when two people both are accepting of a thing simply for what it is- two people enjoying each other’s company- that’s all you need. Label it as you want- but I think people should date because they enjoy the other person, because they fit and enhance each other’s lives- and the rest is just details, paper work, and labels.
That's old-school dating. I like old-school dating.
Nowadays, lots of people are just terrified terrified being alone.
Personally, I'm terrified of marriage and commitment so I'd never ever talk about those things but even if you don't want to get married but you truly love someone, you'd still want to be with them for a long long time.
And isn't being with someone like that partnership without a wedding?
So same thing.
if i were you i'd look into my reasons for fearing marriage and commitment. thing is, on average, if you don't do commitment well, you won't do relationships well.
I had to tell a girlfriend once that she wasn't trying out to be a wife. If all you're doing is looking towards marriage I think you miss a lot of great things that a relationship can be. If it happens, then that's great, if it doesn't, then it doesn't. Don't force the issue.

Also I'm polygamous so not basically an average thing I'm wanting in life.
