Thanks for your response, which are also duly noted and respect, although I must add for those who see my personal views as "sanctimonious" definition that means "hypocritical, priggish, self-righteous, smug, superior, bigoted, deceiving, insincere, holier-than-thou, preachy" then have not got from the thread what I was saying, simply how important marriage is to me, as I am neither of those definitions. Thanks again for your comments as all are welcome.
Bless

you pose many questions
marriage to me is a life long commitment to another human being encompassing respect honour and lurve.
however eyes, you suggest one must allow sufficient time to elape before taking this path, my question to you is this, by what yardstick or who's yardstick do we establish what you term sufficient time?
whilst your veiws are noted , and respected, to some you could appear to be somewhat sanctimonious

A few things my teacher has said about marriage:
Before marriage, he is half body. Before marriage, she is half body. Lady is always left side. Right side is gent's. The gent's body is always the right side of the wife. Now you have only one body. In Indian philosophy or custom, this is called ardhangi. (Ardha means half.) Wife before marriage is only ardhangi, half body. Now the left side is joined with the right side and you are full body. (Divine Memories of Sathya Sai Baba)
Men should try to understand women, and women should try to understand men. It is the harmony, peace and mutual love between men and women that brings happiness and peace to the family. People want happiness in the family, but they do not lead exemplary lives. The fault lies with both the husband and the wife. (Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Ladies Day Discourse, Nov. 19, 1995)
Women should take the correct path then men will follow suit, as it is the women who have to take the leading role. The wife is half of the husband; if she becomes good, then her husband, who is the other half, will also become good (Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Ladies Day Discourse, Nov. 19, 1995)
