I would be embarrassed if I was Goldie

She is literally afraid to get married thinking that it will ruin her relationship. So instead they say they don't need it.

I have been married for 44 years and can't conceive of living that long with my man and having a child and a home and not saying I DO and forever.

So what if you say it in private? If you are not willing to say it in public for the world to hear, then you have no confidence in it.
I am sure they are deeply committed. And yes many people get married and fail at it, many times.

I applaud them staying together. But the couples who finally say I do, after many years say that it adds something else to the relationship that was never there before. And they didn't miss it because they never had it.

If you have to explain marriage to someone, you know they have never been married.

well, perhaps having got married twice before and it didn't last she feels marriage is not necessary to her happiness. they have managed 32 years without it after all.

I really don't wish to sound rude, but what do these people's personal lives have anything to do with you? Actors shouldn't be any more to you than the characters they play on screen. It's sad and intrusive. Sorry to pick on you specifically; this rubbish just really winds me up.

Agreed. Furthermore, if your 44 year old marriage was everything you proclaimed it to be, I don't think you would have felt the need to make such a post regarding someone you don't even know.

I find people often confuse marriage with commitment. You can be completely uncommitted and sign a piece of paper and vice versa.

Well then; it's a good thing you are not her, eh?

'Saves you the embarrassment so all's well.

I would be embarrassed if I were so judgemental as to think someone else's relationship were "lacking" because it didn't go the direction I personally thought it should go.

So what if you say it in private? If you are not willing to say it in public for the world to hear, then you have no confidence in it.

Seriously??? Surely "44 years" of marriage should teach you that the ONLY two people who get to decide how they express their love and dedication to each other are the two people actually IN the relationship. Frankly, the ones who feel the need to make a public spectacle out of it seem to be showing much more insecurity to me...

When you're 17 a cow can seem dangerous and forbidden...am I alone here?

So you're proud of the sex tape diva and the basketball player because they signed a piece of paper?

Who cares? Obviously whatever they're doing has been working for them.
