Personal opinion about trial marriage.
Good idea.
Just don't consider having children until you know for sure you are solid and good parents.
"Some Eskimos, American Indians, Icelanders Africans, Arabs, and Sinhalese practiced trial
marriage. The length of the trial ranged from a single visit, as among the Chippewa’s, to a
one-year period, as among the Icelanders.
Margaret Mead, the noted anthropologist, suggests a two-stage marriage. The first stage,
individual marriage, would involve a commitment between two people, who would agree not
to have children. Easy to dissolve, individual marriage would last as long as both spouses
wanted it to. The second stage, parental marriage, based on the intent to have children,
would involve far more; the couple would have to show that they could support a child, would
go through a formal ceremony, and would be expected to stay together for life. Bertrand
Russell--philosopher, mathematician, and iconoclast--believed in a similar arrangement. "

I read the article and learned that there are some pretty fair-sounding arguments for different kinds of marriage arrangements than what I have been familiar wit

I agree with Jaz4U. Unfortunately in trial marriage there is no boundary and how much closer they come before their wedding.

Actually "religion" honored two people being betroughed by families. Like Mary and Joseph. The lived and traveled together; however, they were not suppose to be intimate until their wedding.

As far I have knowledge, none of the major religions allow or permit the trial marriage. After all religion is one that teach us the true way of life to walk in a good manner. Because this life itself is a trial and we all have to respond to our creator Almighty God. Almighty God sent to us almost 124,000 messengers, started from Adam and end on Mohammed (Peace be upon them). The purpose of sending messengers is to deliver the message of Almighty God and train us by doing practical by them. Not
