25 Reasons Why Not to Get Married

I am not your average girl, I'm sarcastic and opinionated. I smoke, drink, and stay out late. I openly admit that I have a twisted view on many aspects of life, most of all on relationships. I've never been the girl that was waiting for her prince charming or dreaming of a fairy tale wedding.




Here's some of my reasons why not to get married:

  1. There's no one calling you asking when you will be home from work.
  2. You can lie in bed all morning or all day if you want.
  3. Nobody sees what you look like first thing in the morning.
  4. No one snores
  5. There’s no fight for the remote.
  6. Stay in the shower as long as you want.
  7. You’re not as accountable to ANYONE!
  8. If you mess up your finances you have no one to blame but yourself.
  9. You ALWAYS know EXACTLY how much is in your checking account.
  10. You never have to say where you’ve been or what you’ve been doing.
  11. No curfew.
  12. You can spend all your money on shoes.
  13. You can have friends over whenever you want.
  14. You go to bed when you please – or not.
  15. Tons of closet space.
  16. You don’t have to share ANYTHING with ANYONE
  17. No in-laws
  18. Pajamas or not. It's your call.
  19. When you’re single you can tell the person criticizing your driving to “get out!”
  20. You can sit and enjoy some quiet time any time you please.
  21. You don’t have to do anyone else’s laundry
  22. all-nighters to party with friends!!
  23. You can have another drink without getting"a look"
  24. Friends. Whether they're male, female, or somewhere in between, your friends are your own. No one has any right to tell you that you cannot see them, go out with them, buy them gifts, or even take trips with them. If you wish to go on a 10-day drinking binge with some friend, all the better.
  25. You’re not sure what you want to be when you grow up!

  2. you have the brain of an eleven year old girl, i could counter every reason you have for not getting married, and one day when you are old and shagged out, you will read your musings and realise what a tit you have been. Grow up.

  3. oh shut up andy, marriage isn't for everyone! Not every female wants to be put up with a man for the rest of her life! and no i am not a man-hater, just fed up with narrow minded people such as yourself. different strokes for different folks! What kind of statement is "shagged out" anyway. Who isn't shagged out when they are old? YOU need to grow up!

  4. hmm interesting.. i would agree with not getting married part but not coz of the same reasons.. def feel it would b a good idea to av all the time for urself.. the fact that u can sleep in whenever u want.. n go for a long holiday whenever u want without aving to think abt some one else..
    but what if we r wrong? wht if we realise at the age of 50 tht living alone sucks?!

  5. hello, like your blog.
    Except I must remind you that you think this way because you are 30 years old now. What happens when you're 50 and single?

  6. I agree with Andy. You're a child who doesn't want to grow up, or know how to be faithful.

  7. Hmm, no you sound like the phase my girlfriend keeps going in and out of. Fing stupid choice of lifestyle, and she can't make up her mind if it's all her fault and shes a terrible person, or I'm the one that drove her too it. :/
    Need to dump her ass but I love her too much . . .

  8. these reasons are pretty shallow and kind of stupid. you can still do most of those things while in a relationship. speaking from experience. also, why would you want no one to care when you come home or where you are ? thats sad...you wanna die alone..sad sad sad.
