    I actually love the marriage mechanics in Skyrim. if you’re interested in someone, you put on an amulet of Mara and go talk to them. If they aren’t interested, they ignore it, and there is no social awkwardness. If they are interested in you, they comment on the amulet and ask if you are looking for a partner. You can then say woops, my bad, I didn’t realize that’s what wearing this meant, or yes I am, are you interested, if so, let’s go get married.

    I wish real life was that straightforward. No games, no social awkwardness, no guessing.

      It’s because life in Skyrim is so short and brutal. Half the population mysteriously dies every playthrough.

        Or not, i could do without having an aneyurism from hearing about that stupid jahahmaron ever again.

        Also, they never clarified whether the statues give any indicator about gender preference either.
