George Clooney is off the market. Not because he has decided to pop the question to current girlfriend Sarah Larson, but because he has sworn off marriage all together.Clooney's cousin, actor Miguel Ferrer, says that the uber-hunk doesn't want to go through another divorce. Clooney was married to actress Talisa Balsam from 1989 to 1993. That was his only marriage.
According to Ferrer, "So many people wind up with children or getting married who have no business doing it. He knows himself well enough to know that's not what he wants in his life. He's got to trust himself."
While I am disappointed to hear that we won't be seeing George at the altar anytime soon (or anytime at ALL, apparently), I have to respect him for making a choice. Because unless you are getting married for the right reasons, and are really in it for the long haul, there's no point in going through the motions.
But it leaves me wondering: could you date someone who had sworn off marriage? I mean, sure, we would all date George Clooney, but how committed could you be if you knew there was no walk down the aisle waiting in your future?
