so were you banging someone on the side? One for children and one for fun?
Sorry, I grew up in the same general culture. Marriage wasn't for gits, it was an eternal expression of love. Kids were a possibility, but not the only reason for marriage. Yes, there was a lot of marriages because of pregnancy, but that was not the only reason one got married.
