Marry in case of pregnancy?

[mojper]

This is simple question from me - do you support that someone is going to marry girl just because she get pregnant?

Or if you want - will you marry someone who propose you only because you get pregnant?

Explain your answer

I think that marriages that have a strong foundation of a solid relationship can still fail so to get married only because someone is pregnant seems foolish. However, there are always the cases where someone gets pregnant the first night they sleep together and here they are 20 years later married and blissfully happy. Also, as I've grown up I've realised that someone doing something I consider not a good idea in their relationship does not impact on my relationship or undermine my decisions so if someone is a friend it is best to just be there. If an opinion is requested then give it honestly but try not to be to brutal!

This is really a very difficult question to answer. If I love him, he loves me, if I was pregnant, then get married.

No I don't agree, not just because she got pregnant. I would be more inclined to wait till the baby was a year old and then marry, make sure the love is there. The first year of having a baby is meant to be the most testing in a relationship, so I would want to go through that first, but then I've been with my partner for 11 years and we're not married as I can always think of things I want to do with the money first lol so probably not the best person to reply to this.

ive been with my partners 6 years, the plan was house, marry, children, instead we got the house, child in on way and marriage??????? well that's on the back burner for a bit

I dont, my mom and dad got married mainly because she got pregnant. My OHs parents also got married due to pregnancy. Both marriages ended in divorce.
Plus personally I wouldn't want to be pregnant on my wedding day!
I've told my boyfriend he's not even allowed to propose to me while I'm pregnant! I could just be fussy though! Haha

I think it will end in more heartbreak and stress if the main reason for marriage is pregnancy. You should go in to a marriage believing you will spend the rest of you life with that person because you love them, not because you have a child together.

Coming from the olden days. My nan's sister has her eldest son with a man she HAD to marry because she fell pregnant unmarried. They divorced he ended up being an alcholic and is now dead. He turned out to be a fine chap and has 2 children of his own now with the women he loves (both had their children nearing their forties) So thinking about it, it tends to be oldschool because it wasn't optional in them days. But non religiously I never seen it happen.

In my eyes, marriage is just a piece of paper. Yes it can show each other how much you love one another but having that extra ring on your finger will not keep you together!

My husband & I got married last year and nothing has changed between us. People always ask me how married life is but we find it just the same. I think this is a good thing because I always assumed that my life with him was forever, not just a temporary thing.

So, basically, I don't think someone should just get married because they are pregnant. You need to want to spend the rest of your lives together for a marriage / relationship to work out.

This is all just my little opinion of course!

Would go with not getting married just because of pregnancy. I'd hate if things didn't work out and my child was then stuck in the middle of a divorce. I had a horrible childhood due to my parents arguing all the time and things and I swore if I ever had kids I'd never put them through that. I wanna get to know my girlfriend better and see how things are between us with our baby before considering marriage

Not because of a pregnancy, no. Having a baby is like marriage itself to me haha. But then, I've never been attracted to getting married.

Although I won't say no if the bf proposes haha.

My boyfriends parents got married after accidentally falling pregnant when they were 19/20. They were both in university with no money and no jobs. They have now bought and sold 3 houses, moved over from Ireland, they've got 2 kids, a nice car and one's an archaeologist of Roman artefacts near Hadrians Wall and then his Dad works at Newcastle University, has his doctorate degree and plays a big part in tests for Cancer Research.
It does work and I've seen just as many divorces from supposed established marriages as I have from the rushed marriages. Obviously you need to feel something for the other person, otherwise it really is a losing battle.
