30 Of The Most Humorous, Bizarre, And Deep “Shower Thoughts” On Marriage, As Shared By Users In This Online Group

Yep.. and they spend thousands, sometimes even hundered thousands on one day and they start off their marriage with a huge debt. I will never understand that

Which might explain why my sister has had four husbands...

Sad, but true. Thousands spent on a spectacle of a wedding only to divorce in a year. Happened with one of my family members.

once upon a time in time long pass(some places anyway), the wedding day, or days. was the most important moment women would have their whole life, it was the only day the focus would be on them. that just carried on as romantic fantasy into today...and some people really buy into it...and back then, you got married, it was to death did them apart...I'm afraid of women who think the wedding is the most day of their lives, there are a lot of stuff you can do with your life, besides being married

Marriage is a wonderful institution in all but what I wanna know is what did I do to deserve to be in an institution?

Why shouldn't the groom be involved in choosing the outfits? At our wedding my wife and I chose both our outfits jointly along with a few friends along for a fun day out too.

Not all heros wear capes

My hubby came dress shopping with me. We had great fun upsetting a lot of people who thought that he shouldn’t be with me.

I went shoe shopping with my fiancée for her bridal shoes - the horror, the horror!

Lol

This would be horrible for me. I am terrible with deadlines and paperwork, so I would probably get un-married due to laziness.

This is so sad. Doesn’t anyone want to make the effort to help the one relationship that should last forever? I understand that it can’t always work out and some should never have happened in the first place. But why make the way out the easy part?

No sense. Marriage is by definition something to be permanent. If you want you may break it. But if what you want is a flat-partner with the right to share the bed ... that is not marriage

My husband and I almost got divorced 8 years ago....if divorce was easy, we would have done it, and never would have worked through what we were going through and came out stronger than ever in the end. I do think divorces should be an easier process than it is though

What if one wants to renew and the other doesn't?

Since most murders are not committed blindly or indiscriminatly by some sort of deranged madperson the people nearest the victim (family/friends) are the most likely killers. I always get annoyed at my tv when crime is discussed and people say "His/her own wife/husband did it!". Whose SO were they supposed to get so agitated over other than the person they share their life with?

I love my bf more than anything in the world but you can bet your asses if he's ever found dead under suspicious circumstances that it was me

Episodes of "Forensics Files"and "Dangerous Women" opened my eyes, lol.

WHO says?????? unless he neighbours have heard him beating up his wife, or her screaming at her husband for being a sleazy bastard.

sadly true!

32 years and counting

But the truth is that this means nobody's an expert. Everyone's marriage is different, so you can only be an expert on your own marriage. For generalized knowledge, you have to gather information from other sources, as couple's therapists do.

Actually.. I have 40 years of experience without a failure

No!! Engineering is EXACTLY the same!

After reading some of the marriages (many) on BP I do not think many would believe that

I got a ‘one of a kind’ dress for very cheap because it was a trial dress from a dress maker that they didn’t like and didn’t add to their collection. It was my dream dress, so I was extra thrilled at a unique dress and saved money.

Probably for the same reason "bridezilla" is a word and "groomzilla" is not a word.

By us you can rent a dress. They buy new ones for every season, and they sell the worn dresses from last year very cheap (usually they are damaged)

Think a lot of brides are sentimental about the dress, want to see daughter get married in it type of thing. Guys and tuxes not so much. I did buy my son his tux when he got married because a truly quality tux doesn't really go out of style. So many mix and match accessories can change the look every time you wear one. But fair warning, tall, dark and handsome don't alway stay the same, now "dad bod"! But happier than 99% of people!!

Traditionally, the woman would pass down the dress

That sounds so tiring tbh. I've had my best friend sleep over for 3 months straight and by the end i was kinda happy to see her go. It was so tiring and we got almost no sleep (bc she wanted to talk all night, EVERY SINGLE NIGHT)

Yeah, and having kids is really, really fun…

Friday Night Slumber Party (FNSP), it's a thing for us going on 31 years. Best friends love hanging out together.

Friendzone :)

Yup, half a decade in and aged mid-forties, we are in the throes of puppy-love, like some kind of dopey saps hehe 💓
