Can I also add that I have always had sort of mixed feelings on marriage... my parents had a very, very nasty divorce. Separated when I was very young, waited to divorce (don't know why...) and then the actual legal issues went on for years and only just recently wrapped up. I'd say between the separation and final court date it was like 15 years. And within my extended family of aunts and uncles (with whom I am very close), there have been an additional 7 divorces.

I don't know if this all plays into my current issues with maybe thinking I shouldn't be getting married. I just don't know how to make sense of any of my feelings right now.
