Marriage Nowadays….
mar·riage
“The state
of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a legal,
consensual, and contractual relationship recognized and sanctioned by and
dissolvable only by law”- Dictionary.com
Growing up I’ve
always thought of an amazing fairy tale wedding…a beautiful dress, flawless
make-up, gorgeous venue reception, my closest friends & family, a wonderful
destination wedding on the beach of a spectacular island & my prince
charming and everything perfect! But that’s as far as I thought……
I figured
that my thought process stopped there because I was young and didn’t understand
fully the complexity of a long term relationship. BUT I am older now, wiser
now, and well aware of the requirements for a long term relationship & what’s
ironic is my thought process of an amazing fairy tale wedding still STOPS at
the wedding on a beach.
I just don’t
see the value of a marriage or better yet I don’t understand it’s purpose
especially for my generation (Ages 22-30). I’ve befriended many males who are
married and the things they do within their marriage is definitely not the NORM
or criteria for a marriage.
Male: Get to
know other females on a sexual level so when you’re wife doesn’t wanna give it
up, you have back up.
Female: Forgive
him for f*cking around on you because he is all you know and you vowed to stay
for better or for worse and you’ve been cheating too so you really can’t be too
mad. (deep down inside you know baby #1 ain’t his shhhhh) *MAMA’s Baby, DADDY’s
Maybe!!!*
Both: Meet
new people because everyone is entitled to friends but make sure you leave out
the fact that you’re married! That’s NOT important.
Male: Falling
in love with someone else is ok as long as you go home to your wife and pay a
few bills here and there.
Male: Lying
to your wife telling her you at work when you really at the bar with your “boo”,
telling her you with the boys when you really at dinner with your “boo, telling
her you at a corporate gathering when you really laid up with your “boo” is ok
as long as she doesn’t find out because what she don’t know won’t hurt her!
Never tell the
truth
Write your
lies down so you can refer back when they tryna catch you
Always use a
condom because you can’t deny that STD or Baby on the way
Never slip
and say names of who you f*ckin
Always have
your phone locked and msgs deleted
Never tell
your boo you are married and never tell your wife you have a female friend even
when you mad
If you gonna
cheat, make sure you go all out and have a plan B for when you gotta go home
The list
goes on and on and on……..SO again why the helllllll would I get married?! Don’t
get me wrong there are some marriages that are working with two faithful ppl,
none that I have witnessed in my generation but I’m sure they exist.
But me
personally when It comes to MARRIAGE I’ll pass!!!!
