30 Of The Most Humorous, Bizarre, And Deep “Shower Thoughts” On Marriage, As Shared By Users In This Online Group

The belief that the day you get married is the best day of your life is not dead. And the best proof of that is never-ending stories of which some were already covered by Bored Panda. From bridezillas who want everything to be perfect and then messing up the whole thing to people celebrating long and successful marriages. But what happens in between saying “I do” and the day the marriage reaches its end? Marriage is full of customs and things that say “this is how it suppose to be”. Having this in mind, Reddit’s users started sharing their Shower Thoughts on matters such as wedding, marriage and relationship. The list includes statements that people rarely think of starting from a proposal: have you ever thought that proposing reminds you of begging and that this very important decision of life should not be put forward as a surprise? Or how the wedding means more to the happy couple than the marriage itself? These and many more thoughts crossed Reddit users minds. Do you have your own experiences to share? Don’t forget to leave it in the comments!

Because a tux can be used over and over and a dress will go out of style, but sell your dress, buy used, you can do these things.

30 Of The Most Humorous, Bizarre, And Deep “Shower Thoughts” On Marriage, As Shared By Users In This Online Group Marriage proposals are weird. The proposer gets to take as long as he/she wants to determine whether they want to spend the rest of their life with someone. The proposee is expected to make a split-second decision.

This should never be a split-second decision, marriage should always be discussed before a proposal is made. If you are proposing to someone, you should already know what the answer will be.

This is spinning the idea to make it sound incestuous. If people want to save themselves for the person they will be with forever, more power to them. I did not do this but wish I had. It’s a beautiful thought. If everyone did this STDs would virtually be a thing of the past.

I went to a convent school, and we used to rib the nuns, and ask if they were all virgins (because our moto was Virgo Fidelis) and ask if they believed in no sex before marriage... My favourite nun said "well, you wouldn't buy a pair of shoes without trying then on first" XD XD

There are many, many people in the world who want to sex before marriage but can't because of various reasons. In fact, sex after marriage is more normal than it has been portrayed here.

I knew a couple that did that. I was friends with the groom. He said that basically he and his wife didn't even wear clothes for like the first week of their marriage because they couldn't get enough.

How awful to loose out on possibly the love of your life just because of sex. Frankly, if sex is the deal breaker, you're not ready to marry. There is so much that can affect one's ability to enjoy or even want sex. Physical, emotional, mental issues can crop up. Life changes, such as employment, children, care giving a relative. It took 2 years for my ex and I to figure each other out, once we did.....It's the only thing I miss about him, yet by the time I left I couldn't stand for him to even touch my shoulder. Good sex is something you can achieve if you really love each other, it may just take time. Good sex is also one of the first things that disappears when love and respect are lost, and those losses can be literally overnight
