Being 21 years old, marriage is definately not the first thing on my mind, but I keep thinking to myself... do I want to get married, do I want to have kids?
Married men tend to live happier lives than their single counterparts, and they also tend to live longer... but being with only one woman for the rest of my life is a scary thought. What if she decides she doesn't want to keep in shape after we get married, and then lets herself go becoming a 400 pound manatee? That would suck, and the process of getting a divorce is costly, time consuming and extremely stressful. The sex would only last about 20-25 years or so before she goes through menopause and then she'll never be interested in sex again.
And what about kids? If you have kids early on in the marriage your sex life will be non-existant, you'll be stressed out, you'll have a huge financial burden etc. etc.... but then I think to myself how can I not pass on my genes to the next generation? I have great genes, the world would be at a significant loss if my genes aren't passed on.
It's a tough decision to make...
