I've been there. I was one of those people and then I was faced with a situation where I realized I didn't exist if I wasn't Ryan's wife. When you run into that situation (and it usually deals with death, illness or custody), that piece of paper matters <strong>a lot.</strong> Also, on the idea of “just a piece of paper”.

And at what point does "caution" become ridiculous? 4 years? 10 years? 20 years? How long do you wait before you realize nothing is ever going to change? Were everything perfect in your relationship how long would you wait before without marriage before you decided enough was enough? But… why?

I've always seen dating as just the in between stage. You either break up, or you're together long enough to decide to get married. Otherwise what is the point?
