That is the exact opposite of what I said Sinbad. I love my girlfriend. I live with her. And she's having my child. I'm about as committed as a man can be. My point was that the only difference between what we have and marriage is that I don't have a meaningless piece of paper requiring a lawyer to dissolve. Marriage does not equal love. Marriage is simply a contract. You are aware of arranged marriages, right? What about open marriages? Multiple marriages?
You haven't explained what your idea of marriage is. In your opinion, what is the difference objectively between a wife and a gf?
