Yeah, I think it's important that if you were to settle down your plans had to coincide. If you want kids and your partner doesn't for another 10 years, it could be a problem. If you both want to travel and then when you're finished settle down and have kids, then great. I imagine as I grow up, my plans might change. But I've always liked the idea of being married quite young, even from an early age. Just having the wife, kids, house seems like a really nice way to live. Rather than being lonely in a flat with just your cat for company. I have no plans in life at the moment, so marriage would be great. It's more finding the right person, that's something I've always wondered about. Finding the one.. does that ever really happen? It's strange considering my parents divorced when I was young, I should be totally against marriage.

Nope, you find A one, not THE one. The idea that there's one perfect person for everyone is ridiculous. I honestly think a lot of it has to do with timing as well. Two people can be perfectly compatible and yet not at the stage where they want to settle down and get married. Once you reach that stage, every person you're with then becomes a potential husband or wife, and if one of them is someone you get along with and has similar goals and values, they'll probably be the one you marry. It's as much to do with 'when' as it is with 'who.'

I mean finding THE one that you're willing to put up with, I don't believe in any of that bollocks. I just thought the one was an easier way of explaining it. It's quite rare that two people are so in tune with each other as well, to find two people that are right for each other and want the exact same thing at the same time in my opinion is a rarity.
