I am one of those people who don't like marriage - I'm not saying it's bad - just not for me at this time. I'm 37 years old, and we've been living together since 1995. He is the greatest guy, and loves animals as much as I do. we just don't want to do the marriage thing at this time - I was engaged before and ended the engagement, gave back the ring....I don't know, marriage weirds me out.
