Perhaps it's my age but marriage just doesn't appeal to me. If you have genuine feelings for somebody why do you need a ritual to confirm them? When I go out with somebody I know that my feelings for them are genuine, I know that I'm not going to cheat on them and because of my nature (or perhaps my age) I know I'm not going to be with them for the rest of my life. My relationships are often short, but the feelings are genuine while they last.
I don't sleep around as I don't feel comfortable having sex with somebody I don't know (unless I'm drunk of course) due in no small part to the health risks involved in sleeping with strangers. I never feel guilty about having sex with somebody I actually like.
haha! It doesn't appeal to me either.... and yet... I am married. lol
The things you do when you're young and don't know any better!
Honestly even extramarital sex is just fine with me,
as long as there is ample agreement by both primary partners to
(whatever form of) a poly lifestyle.
