Nicolette,

I simply said that "I would not" - me personally.

I'm the last one to preach to about "marriage". I didn't have a wedding. I don't wear a ring and neither does my husband.

I was trying to point out that commitment, between two people, is the deciding factor. If Joe Black has only dated Susi Q for 4 months and there was a commitment made between the two of them (though we don't know what that commitment is) then I would hope they would stick to that commitment, whatever it is.
