I was married in Las Vegas on Chrismas day 2007.

One line of the vows was "I love everything about you" I nearly laughed out loud and wanted to say "Um, I can't say that"

But I didn't have the guts -I was scared that the minister would say we couldn't get married, so I just said it and told my husband later about my internal conflict. lol.

I love my husband dearly - he is everything to me, but I certainly don't love everything about him.

In Vegas of all places?! Even regular ceremonies don't resort to such blatant lies!

It was a really nice ceremony - the minister even said a prayer for us.

My husband didn't have a problem with the vows though - but I'm sure he doesn't love everything about me.

I can be annoying, lol.

Hmmm, never quite got to the wedding, but if we had I would have passed with flying colors. My ex-fiance would have failed miserably

He actually told me when he broke up with me that he couldn't stand up there and take a vow that he didn't mean.

Apparently he can say a lot of things he doesn't mean, as long as they were said in our home, and not in church

You know, TT, many disagree with me, but I'm not fond of the idea of "our home" with somebody I'm not married to. I think it might've ended a lot faster and with less pain for you had that not been the case.

It would be over that's for sure. Why would anyone need a lie detector in a relationship?

the person standing next to you on the alter is a stranger.
the oaths being taken are neither believed nor followed.
the divorce settlement is however real and with far greater consequences than those oaths taken in front of your parents and parrish.
think b4 you act son.

I told the pastor to leave out the obey part, because I wouldn't agree to that.
