So if I'm dating seriously again and again the girlfriend talks about wanting to get married eventually.

So what's the deal with marriage. It is just a legal contract between two people nowadays. The vows aren't the vows wich the were originaly were few lightyears away. I see people divorcing just as easy as breaking up a relationship, there isn't any difference. With the new 'speed' divorcement, people can divorce in 5 minutes, as long as their is a agreement for the kids.
So all that's left is a contract and all nonsens stuff, a big party wich is only fun if your attending because can't get pissed as the groom (right word?).

So what's the value, I don't mind signing a contract but what's all the fuzz about? Isn't it all a (commercial) lie anno 2007?
