Marriage is not essential, it's a choice one make when he/she don't want to be alone.\n\nMarrige according to the Book of Malachi(Holy Bible), says God instituted marriage to seek godly seed. It was designed for this purpose and to be enjoy by married people only.\n\nI Corinthians says stay as you are called, so if you can be celebate, a eunich, or such then don't marry. It's better to marry than to burn with passion.

By nature, a lot of men are hunters and have the need for conquest.  Once they achieve the goal, whether it be to mate or marry, then something clicks in their head and it might be time to find the next challenge.  This trait is problematic in a marriage.  Some times we think that because we take the vow, that the deal is done, then don't need to try as much and take the relationship for granted.\n\nMarried for 10 years, then divorced for 5.  I find that sharing my freedom and independence with a special woman allows the relationship to remain fresh and alive.  I won't say never, but I'm liking being without the assumed obligations that go with marriage.  If I'm with someone, I enjoy making that choice more than once and if we find that its just not working for us any longer, it's simpler to part ways.  \n\nI say enjoy the gifts life has to offer and although it may be remote, if one day you happen across a keeper, then just don't close your mind to the possibility.  I certainly won't rush into anything and would live with someone for a good couple of years proir.  Let's see what we're like when all the pretending is over and learn if true compatibility exists.  Make sense?

i cant figure this out, but if you just need someone you will pretty much deal with a bunch of crap just to have someone around...i did it for over two years just cause i wanted someone there...while i was still with that person i met the man who became my husband...and i didnt know for sure then that he was the right person...love just has a funny way of sneakin up on you, and if your not sure then its not love...

Dont rush into anything forever is a long time. the romantic notion of marriage is great but the reality is often very different.

Lifetime partner? That's kinda flaky. . . come back and ask again when you can ask what the responsibilities of married couples are.

Marriage is definately hard, especially when you think you have found yourself then discover a few years down the road you really don't know who you are or what you like.  Do not give in to the pressure, if I knew then what I know now, I would not have started a family until my thirties.  Your preferences change so much between the time that you graduate from high school, then college, then being responsible enough to purchase your first home.  You and your friends need to know that while the feeling of love is great, it does not pay the bills and marriage does not automatically make you or your spouse responsible.

It is different for everyone. Some people are not out to be married just to be married, but they find someone they love, and decide they want to be with that person forever. Some are scared of ending up alone. Some people do it because it seems like the thing to do, the next logical step in your life. I knew a guy who did just that. He had a long time girlfriend, he graduated college, and just fell into the pattern he thought would be normal. It did not last though. Marriages should be based on love and trust, not a fear of being alone.

As far as a marriage relationship, two should take time with lots of questions, endurance. Friendships they come and go, it just depends if your in it for the fame or fun. Yet, the ultimate relationship, is the one that lasts. It can only be obtained through (Agape Love). "Go Figure!"

I think because marriage is the ultimate committment (or its supposed to be!). You're pledging to love and stand by your significant other for the rest of your life...its a big deal and it is something women have been trained to want and dream about!\nPersonally, I have no idea when I'm going to head down the aisle, as I'm currently single. I'm in no rush though, there are so many things that will be harder to do while in a committed relationship!

My boyfriend and I are both divorced, and we're both a little marriage shy, so I totally understand your problem.  I want to know why 2 years is such a long time before you get married?  Most marriages are dissolved after a couple years because the people didn't know each other, I hear constantly "Well, we got married and I found out......"  That is not how marriage should be.  If you are going to spend the rest of your life with a person, you should know them in and out beforehand.  I'm a firm beleiver in living together before marriage.  Try that for a year or so, if you guys are still madly in love then you can START talking about marriage.

for enjoyment,marriage is not necessary. you can enjoy as you like. but for family and children, you better get married.

What's funny is that every answer seems to find a way to dwell on the negative aspect of marriage. In all actuality, there is no true "negative". Marriage is just like life, like everyday life. It has it's ups and downs just like everything else. Thing is U have somebody to share it with and they share it with U. I've been married to my wife for almost 12 years now. We were together for 13 years b4 that and we're 40 and 39. We have our share of problems and have had them, but we always try to help pick each other up, along with our 3 kids. It's not easy at times, but if your truly "in love", and I do mean TRULY!, then it will all work out. Hell, my wife and I have sex like we're 18 again, just more experienced! Don't knock marriage. It's just a word that been portrayed negatively. It's just a piece of paper that says that the two of you have made a binding agreement to be together. The word, the piece of paper mean absolutely nothing. It's what's in your hearts that matters. "Love, so many people use your name in vain..."

Marriage has it's advantages, it's not always fun but it's not always bad either. It is a compromise, a give and take sort of thing if you will. There are always going to be problems with any relationship and marriage is no different. The main thing is the two people involved have to be compatible for it to work. Marriage can be wonderful thing. It's nice to always have someone to rely on and to comfort you but it is a two way street.>

Just like other things. money, power, fame , sex...... everything is good. but your life should not be spoiled and lost because of these. you just utilize them in the right manner. must know that they are not the aims of yr life. that's all. not necessary to be good being without sex.

Well, I don't think marriage is necessary. Some people stay partners and committed with our marriage. I think in the sense that it will confuse your children that it might be benificial if you got married. I think it would be tough to explain a commited relationship to kids, when you are not married. \n\nIt will also help in terms of medical coverage, and any medical problems that could arise should some one need power of attorney in case a decision needs to be made on life support.

It is possible to survive an entire lifetime without having sexual intercourse with another person.  \n\nSexual intercourse is a desire, like all things that bring extra pleasure in life but not a need.  \n\nIn fact there are people that take and abide by vows of chastity and they live long productive lives.  \n\nYour list seems to include many things that are not a necessity one can live without family or friends.  One can even be relatively healthy doing so in fact better than some that live in bad home environments.\n\nBasic needs oxygen food water shelter.  After that everything else is an added enhancement to life.  Humans being social creatures for the most part will reach for the other things you mentioned but they could sustain life without them.\n\nOne should learn the difference between the words want and need.

Wow. that is a tough one. It depends on your morals and beliefs. Is the marriage strong enough to handle the consequences? I once watched Dr. Phil and he said that is never a good idea. no matter who wants it or how long you've been married. What do you want? sometimes you have to stay true to yourself.
