20. It's not just men who feel that way about marriage.
More and more women do too. My biggest nightmare is having a husband and kids and all the domestic responsibilities that go along with it. I like being alone and doing whatever I please, whenever I please. Although the pressure is even WORSE if you are a women - people think that you are gay or worse, that there is something horribly, horribly wrong with you because "All REAL women want to get married and have kids" :puke:

That doesn't mean I wouldn't like to meet someone special, I just see no reason to enter into the institution of marriage - unless of course, it would mean citizenship in another country ;)

I don't know a lot of happily married women, which is partly why I don't feel the need to walk down the isle. I don't want to end up like them - with someone, but still feeling alone and having all the bullshit and baggage that goes along with being legally attached to another person.

Any other women feel this way?
