I'm not saying I think what you're doing is wrong. I'm just trying to help you see why her dad probably doesn't recognize any commitment, and in turn doesn't give you the respect you deserve.

I think that's where him and I are at odds on the philosophy of marriage. I don't see being married as a deterrent to splitting up. Like I said, people don't get married with the idea that they'll get divorced, yet it happens 40% of the time. I just don't see marriage as any more of a commitment than what we already have, yet it's twice as complicated and more expensive.
