It may not matter to you, but in terms of a woman's social status, our society is still very rigid. Whatever we say, the attitude towards a married woman and an unmarried woman is very different, especially after a certain age. They are also perceived differently in the workplace. If a woman over a certain age is not married, she is often viewed with distrust or as unreliable - it is not the same with men. Many people judge, therefore, how serious or not a relationship is by whether the partners are married or not. If not, it is interpreted that they are obviously not yet completely sure that they want to be with each other and that is why they leave a door. I've noticed that if I wear the ring, the relationship is the same, there is some respect and distance, if I don't wear it, even if I'm with my husband, if the company around doesn't know we're married, they can afford dumps and jokes. In my opinion, they interpret it as "if he doesn't wear a ring, then he is free and things are still subject to change, what makes me worse than him doesn't stop me from trying. It's just that thinking is another very important point. is related to plans for joint children - if he is not ready for marriage, for me it means a problem with taking responsibility.I personally would not get pregnant by a man who is not ready to take responsibility.I do not want to be a single mother - a woman She is very vulnerable both during pregnancy and after birth, and in the first years as the child grows, and she needs to know that the person next to her is ready to share the responsibilities of raising her with her and support her in a difficult time. pack up and move on to the first crisis or difficulty and dump it with the child. marriage is not a guarantee and many married men also abandon their wives, but even if there is no marriage, it is even more risky and frivolous for me. It is much easier to pick up your hammer and move out when there are no legal obstacles and no one is looking for moral or social responsibility. I find the wedding as a ceremony meaningless - a person can get married without much fuss, just with a signature and witnesses. It has never been my dream to see myself in a white dress or anything like that, it's up to the person. For example, we chose to give ourselves a good rest and have a really good time, instead of gathering guests and relatives - but it's a matter of tradition and preference I also understand the people for whom it is important. When you ask what you gain from getting married, it depends on what you ultimately look for in the person you meet. What do you expect from the woman next to you, what does she expect from you? If your desires and expectations, your views on marriage and your plans for the future coincide, I don't see what the problem is with living like that. Once you have found a serious partner with whom you are happy and who the situation as it suits you, then congratulations - and I see no reason to marry. The point is to be honest with each other, not to mislead the other.

Author, do you want me to explain the difference between a husband and a girlfriend? It doesn't matter what everyone thinks. If God forbid something happens to you, your girlfriend can't make any decision - to operate on you, etc., because she is not your relative. If you die, she does not inherit you. If your children are young and someone has to make an important decision about your life, they will look for your parents. Your girlfriend has no rights. There are only obligations / unwritten /. He has rights only with regard to children. One day if you die, God forbid, I'm just hypothetically speaking, the wife, in addition to inheriting you, will receive and receive half of your pension. Your girlfriend gets nothing. You've used it all your life to wash your "dirty" pants (figuratively speaking, don't touch yourself), and you end up leaving her miserable. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that marriage is a bargain, but when you love a man, it's normal to think about how he would live if you weren't there one day. Securing your wife is still the mother of your children. The law has thought about that. Otherwise, yes, marriage is not important in itself. Success!
