Bonny has a negative view of marriage. My biggest issue with being married is having another entire family involuntarily in my life. Unless it's at
work (i.e. I'm being PAID), the idea of having people in my life that I didn't choose to have in my life is completely abhorrent to me. Hell, having
your blood-related family (ESPECIALLY extended family) involuntarily in your life is usually bad enough. Why make it worse for yourself by getting
married? Thankfully, my wife agrees 100% with me on this, so we usually only see her extended family during the holidays and a birthday here and
there.
Oh, almost forgot - having another person's co-workers involuntarily in your life sucks too. With very few exceptions, I can't fucking stand any of my
wife's co-workers or their spouses.
