To marry or not to marry...

SWO? What is this "SWO" you speak of?
Hahaha I loved that picture! And yes, I WILL heed all of the advice given even though I am a special butterfly. j/k Besides, where is a better place to get info about the military that from actual military officers and enlisted? That is the main reason that I asked and I love getting new opinions/ideas. This site has been a huge help. Thanks!

the internet is a great resource for opinions/ideas on "what should I major in", "what kind of car should I get with my USAA loan", "where should I go to get shitfaced every night", and "who should I buy my AWG's from"

getting married is something that you need to decide for yourself.

You don't say? :)

I think the sentiment of this thread is not to rush into a marriage just because one happens to be going to OCS, deploying, PCS, ect.

haha, I got where that was going

I was leaning toward, the "asking online about marriage is asinine no matter the reason"

Or get married, don't have kids, and buy the ex a porsche and house. And then some.

Or stay single and buy yourself the Porsche. Closest I get to Porsches is driving by the dealership or trying not to drool on HeyJoe's at Tailhook events.

So the only reason we WOULD get married (and at a court house at that, no need for a ceremony...) is for insurance, house buying, ect. benefits.

and you bring me to another point...children. We would only want one if we have one at all. What are policies on kids? A year off? A month? or how does that work? Of course, not planning on having one until I'm atleast past 30... just always been curious on this matter of having children while having a career in the Navy. Thanks.

Hey, if all you need is a piece of paper my happy ass is ordained, I'll hook you up for a case of beer...

As far as kids, I only took 4 days off when I had my daughter in advanced, but then again I didn't have to be used as overhead storage for 9 months...

If you guys are common-law anyway and don't really care about the religious/legal aspects, sign a pre-nup and enjoy your extra BAH...

(pickle saying more crap...)

He worked VERY hard for those 4 whole days, too... :icon_rage As a spouse, he needs to realize that he's going to take the brunt of everything. From you, from the Navy, from everyone...
...and no, MB, it's not that hard to be a spouse, so don't start that...

Anyway, the only thing that hasn't made me run for the hills, was that I actually DO love Pickle. (I don't like him most days, but DO love him...)

As all the other people on here have said, this is something YOU need to decide...
