      And i'm talking first of all for being with someone where there's equal trust and love. i mean now a days it's hard to find a nice stable person and personally i believe in monogamy and i don't hide that it's my biggest dream to get married and have a hubby.
      Do you think it's easy to get married someone?

        Getting married is easy, but to the one we want is really hard. lol.
        Of course you knew that, so seriously now.
        I think it is easier the younger one is.
        The older we get we get more picky.
        Well, at least for someone who has a natural tendency to like older men like me.

          For me, relationship dynamics are the same whether it be gay or straight.

          So, to answer your question: It depends; some people find life partners easier/faster (depends on how you look at it  ;D) than others.
          Also, if you live in a place where same sex relationships/marriages are alright, then it increases your odds a bit.

          I bite ;)

            Finding Mr Right is a lot harder than finding Mr Right-now, that should be obvious.

            A lot of men (gay and hetero) get scared off by their partner constantly going on about marriage and babies, in a young relationship.  We've all seen the sitcoms where the woman wears her wedding dress on 1st dates and yammers on about baby names.

            If the relationship is worthwhile, as opposed to just settling, then let it develop and see what happens.  Look around our forums.  Many guys either want to wait a few years before considering marriage or they may not ever want to get married, even though they want a life time monogamous relationship.  A lot of LGBTs hate marriage because it's "hetero normative".

              heteronormative is one word by the way.  Also, only Christian marriage is "straight", which does seem to predominate.

                Marriage demends a lot of inner searching.

                  We should have a spell check feature embedded in the posting box.

                      Cohabitation is better for tax purposes than marriage anyway.  That's why there's married filing singly.

                            I think it's always been hard. Just because most people got married and stayed married for years, doesn't mean they were in truly happy marriages. I've known many older folks who admitted while their marriage looked good on the outside, they were miserable. Many got married because of other people's expectations or financial reasons. Not because they wanted to. Today, people are more aware of their options. I personally don't think many people who get married are ready for that type of commitment. Some men and women are stuck in a "hoe" or "immature" stage, and getting married won't change change that.

                              That really only applies in the US.  Most countries are neutral or positive about marriage in their taxes.
