Today, I asked my girlfriend to marry me. She said no because she doesn't want to be tied down for the rest of her life. We already have 3 children, a mortgage, and joint bank accounts. How much more tied down could we possibly get? FML

Maybe that's her way of saying she might want out soon.. Watch out OP.

Maybe she should of made that clear before creating a family and life with you? Just a thought.

I seriously doubt it, since he's had the time to post about it.

Newsflash, she is already tied down. Or do kids not count?

Well. Maybe she was meaning financially? Because weddings are not cheap.

Because a house and joint bank account don't tie someone down financially?

Raising three children for 18+ years is also pretty expensive.

Well geez in the states all you pay for is a marriage license. So like $20-50. If you dont have that... I mean seriously?

maybe that joint account should be turned to separate accounts. just in case she decides to leave you and take it all

Marriage ends in expensive and messy divorce. And she probably finds other ways to entertain herself besides having kids and sharing funds, most likely has a stash she spends to take a well earned break from all that shit.

@24 Marriages fail because people don't try to make them work. Sometimes two people just aren't right for each other, but if you go into it think it won't work, then it won't work.

Marriage is unnecessary anymore anyway

If she's saying no after all of that, she's probably already cheating on OP or is thinking about it. I vote nay on the marriage.
