Kids on Dating, Love and Marriage

Oh, kids say the funniest things, especially youngsters who are thinking about what love and marriage means because they’ve been asked to participate in a wedding as a flower girl, ring bearer, junior bridesmaid or in some other way. While you may be feeling fondly about the idea of spending the rest of your life with the person you love, kids seem to have a 180 degree perspective. Of course, as we all know, hormones eventually set in and the opposite sex starts to look a whole lot better. Before you finish up planning your wedding details and shopping around for the perfect groomsmen gifts, we hope you get a good chuckle out of these funny comments kids have made about love, dating and marriage.

“No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married.” Sam, age 6

“I’m never going to kiss my wife. I don’t want to be all grossed out.” Theo, age 6 (editor’s note: if you don’t want to get all slobbery on your bride, you can always brand her with our “his” steak brand).

“Tell your wife she looks pretty, even if she looks like a tuck.” Ricky, age 10

“You’ve got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports and she should keep the chips and dip coming.” – Alan, age 10 (editor’s note: and she should keep the cold beers coming in these really cool personalized beer pilsner mugs).

“It’s better for girls to be single, but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.” Susie, age 8 (editor’s note: Well, maybe they can at least keep their shoes clean with this personalized shoe shine kit – great for groomsmen gifts).

“Once I’m done with kindergarten, I’m going to find me a wife.” – Christopher, age 5

“Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken.” – Brianna, age 5

“It gives me a headache to think about all this marriage stuff. I don’t need that kind of trouble.” Mark, age 8

“No person really decides before they grow up who they’re going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you’re stuck with.” Carrie, age 10

“On the first date, they usually just tell each other lies. That usually gets them interest enough to go for a second date.” Danny, age 10

“You flip a nickel, and heads means to stay with him and tails means you try the next one.” Hanna, age 9 (editor’s note: Our leather wallet with coin pocket and key fob makes a handy place to store that nickel you’re going to flip).
