Oh course. Marriage is bloody common, duh! I mean if the couple is religious it's MORE common but then even if they're not it's often common anyway!
As I have said before. I'm not interested in what is common but what is (potentially) better.
Marriage and commitment may be a COMMON way of expressing love...BUT the thing is....I trust someone because I trust them because I know them they wouldn't have to make some kind of uber promise or 'commitment' to me because if I love someone and care about someone and I also know that person...I can tell anyway. And they can tell with me. I don't need a formal 'promising' or 'commitment' like some kind of 'contract'...if we WANT to or just feel that way then FINE - like I said it's a COMMON way of expressing love - but I personally wouldn't wish to because I think it's more superficial and less profound than seeing if I can trust and love and care about a person WITHOUT declaring some big 'promise' or 'commitment'...but just being able to tell because I not only love and care about that person but I also know them because we're match
