[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 246971, member: 3907"] Janet, you said a mouthful! Like you and Tony, my husband and I are married in our hearts but not by any officiant. We were each married before, we have each been through an incredibly nasty divorce, and the fallout from both of them still affects our lives to this day. Although I have an issue with people pretending to get married in order to throw a party and get lots of presents, or with the express purpose of defrauding the government, I am in full support of keeping the state out of my life as much as possible. I obey laws, I pay my taxes, try to be a good friend, good citizen, all that jazz. But I don't need the government getting up my nose or having the power to make decisions for me that should rightfully be mine. Therefore, no marriage for me. Moderators, I apologize if I'm getting way too close to the "political statements" line. Please feel free to delete or edit if that's the case. Trinity [/QUOTE]
