I thought that children were not allowed to go to baby showers or wedding showers because it was an adults only event where they literally took showers together.

I used to think that lesbians would marry gay guys. The gay guys would turn into a woman and the lesbian would turn into a man.

When I was around 5, I heard my mom talking about going to a bridal shower with some other ladies, and I was picturing all these women in the shower together!! I was quite disturbed and was glad I wasn't going.

I used to think that women could only marry men who were older than they were. I was so relieved when, at age 6, I discovered that the little boy I had a crush on was exactly one month and one day older than I. Otherwise, I would have had to stop liking him.

When I was little I thought that a honeymoon was when the Husband and wife went to the moon and eat honey.

When I was little, I was always puzzled about weddings. The line "til death do us part", mainly. I was under the belief that, after the wedding, the bride and groom would go separate ways and have to see each other in secret.

When I was little i thought at weddings a crowd of people would stand outside of a church building and ask another random person to marry them. Then I supposed the best couple would be elected to get married. I have no idea how i came up with this...

When I asked my dad where he met my mum, he told me he went to a shop and chose her. For years I thought when I was old enough I could go to a Wife Shop and pick out who I wanted.

When I was little I thought that adults at weddings automatically knew how to dance in unison like dancers in music videos. Really they were just dancing to The Electric Slide.

my parents got divorced when I was six years old. for some reason, I thought that since divorce was the opposite of marriage, they would promise to hate each other and then instead of kissing, they would slap eachother.

I used to believe that the bridesgroom was the room at the back of the church where the bride got ready. The groomsmen got her ready, ie. groomed her.

I used to believe that woman had to pay to keep their last name when they got married!!!!!!!

My daughter asked me what my husband and I were like when we were little and were brother and sister. She thought that her and her brother would grow up and be husband and wife.

When I was little my uncle and auntie got divorced; my mum explained to me that I wouldn't see my Auntie anymore, and when I pushed for a reason she said that the policeman had come round and told them to be apart!

I believed for a long time that this could happen to any married couple whenever the police chose; but strangely never doubted that the policeman had a good reason!

I used to believe that if you kissed someone you HAD to marry them. Even in the movies.

I ised to think that people had to see the movie JAWS before they got married as a test to see how much fear they could handle.

I belived that when someone wanted a divorce, they would dress up in black clothing and walk down the aisle again. Like, an opposite wedding. I made my barbies do it before i would remarry them to someone else.

I used to think that you wouldn't die unless you got married.

Um...no.

When I was about 7 years of age, I attended my cousins wedding. After the wedding, at the reception, an announcement was made to 'toast' the bride and groom. Being a hungry kid, for hours afterwards and then for a further few years, I often wondered what happened to the plates of 'hot buttered toast' that I assumed accompanied the 'toasting' of the newly wed couple!!!!!

This is actually the belief of my precious little ring bearer.

He was watching a cartoon with his mom in which the little boy got to be the ring bearer. He turns to his mom and quickly replies "LOOK MOM! That's what I get to be and go ROAR!"

Cute little thing thinks he's going to be the ring "BEAR".
