PEOPLE GET MARREID FOR DEFFERENT REASON'S SOME IS MONEY MINES WAS LOVE. I WANTED A FAMILY BUT I DID NOT WANT TO BE SOMEBODY'S BABY'MAMA SO I GOT MARRIED AT THE TIME I DID NOT WANT ANY KIDS BUT THEY CAME OUT OF THE MARRIAGE. I ALSO DID NOT WANT TO LIVE IN SIN I ALREADY GOT A HISTORY OF SIN I DID NOT WANT THAT TO BE ONE OF THEM. BUT ALL IN ALL MARRIAGE IS ACCEPTING THE THINGS THAT SOME ONE CAN NOT CHANGE AND IF YOU CAN LOVE THE PERSON FOR WHO THEY ARE INSIDE THEN GO FOR IT.

People don't take marriage seriously anymore.  To them, it's no big deal, if it doesn't work out they can just get a divorce.  People also marry for the wrong reason and a lot of people are too selfish when they get marry.  They aren't ready to put their spouse first.  It's a very sad but marriage is becoming less and less important to the majority everyday.  I hope something happens to somehow change that fact.

Because it wants everyone to get marries, and be fruitful and multiply. Well....certain types of people at least!

If you were meant to be together then you will be together. When you get married its a union of two people that God has put together so if she says yes, its because it was meant to be.

I love being married.  There is nothing better than being with someone who knows your every emotion.  Knows when you need a hug, or when you need to laugh.  Or just someone to be silly with.  Burdens are halved and joys are doubled.  It couldn't be better to do all of that with someone you love and who loves you.

I think that as long as 2 people love each other and are happy together then why not get married. Theirs lots of man / women marrieges that suck and fail ( and Im shure theirs gay ones to ) so who cares who the 2 people are as long as it works

Because people are lonelier nowadays, and once they find the probable "perfect one", they don´t want to let the other away. So they marry in a hurry, to find out later on that the "perfect one" is not that perfect, and in fact has dozens of imperfections. So they start early and finish early also.

Why get married AT ALL if it's not something you want?  People take a leap into Nothing when getting married.  By that I mean only their Faith and Trust holds the bond connected.  \n\nHumans have Free Will; and that comes with the responsibility to do what's right, including NOT getting married.  If the notion of awakening next to the same person for YEARS until death parts you from them is not in your heart, then DON'T GET MARRIED!\n\nDon't go in with a doubt, or without counseling.  There are courses for people seeking marriage in the Catholic church just for the fact that they don't know what they're gonna feel later and why.  The marriage must be a faith-based union, meaning you're  going to church together, spiritually awake to one another, and emotionally aware of what's happening.\n\n"So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." - Matthew 19:6\n\nMy wife knows my vanity and self-centeredness, and also knows ALL my support and love are with her.  Despite my flaws she also wanted to marry me, and has forgiven my numerous chaotic and emotional misgivings.  We have been married 4 years, dated for 6 including 3 years she was at college out-of-town.\n\nI hope you find a spouse as loving & giving as I have.\n\nGood luck & God Bless!\n\n\nJaime

Wedding is the event in which you get married. Marriage is the act of being married.

It all depends on the couple. Some people may feel they have moved too fast and think they should hold off on planning a wedding just yet. Sometimes a couple who is engaged a long time may be holding off because of their job, they  are moving around and don't have time to plan a wedding right away, or they are needing to finish college. There are lots of reasons. Money is also another reason--some people may not be able to get married due to financial reasons.

you wanna get marriage?

because people are looking for someone else to "complete" them. they dont realize than another person can never do that...you have to be complete in yourself before you pursue a relationship! When people get married and find that they still arent "whole" they think its the other person, when its really them.

They SHOULD go hand in hand... but it doesn;t always happen that way. Some people use marriage as a refuge against lonliness and are willing to make the necessary compromises for it.

I don't think people get married to stop each other from sleeping around .I think they get married because they love each other.

It could be that the person they are planning to marry may be of another religion.  Such as catholics are only supposed to marry catholics.  It could also be that they had a bad experience with their prior religion and looked into different religions and found one they felt was more "in tune" with their personal beliefs.
