hi everyone do you believe in getting married, some couples say they dont believe in getting married because they already live together as if they were married any way so dont see the point. my opinion is yes i do believe in marriage as you are showing infront of others you are commited to each other and the wife usually takes the husbands surname officially, getting married in my eyes proves you are commited to one and anotehr it is also romantic and somethink that will stay special in your memorys forever, whats your opinion on this? would like to hear your opinions.

Yes...I do believe in marriage. I am in a similar situation..where my boyfriend doesn't see the need...but I do. I feel like we are living in sin..right now...or at least that is the way it feels to me. He wants to wait until we are more financially stable...but I also don;t want to wait forever...

yes i believe in getting married!! although i believe it should be a well thought out deal as i have noticed that marriage tends to spoil the relationship.... my friends got married after being together for 2 months (they had known each other for like a year) and she changed and got really bossy after the wedding.... we found out she was only after his money so that has kind of put me off marriage but i do love my fella and will marry him one day. i do believe that it means you are commited to each other and is very romantic. depending on what else happens depends on whether it will remain in your memories i think if children come along they would be more of a memory to remain with you forever. x

Yes I do believe in marriage and definitely I'll marry someone that I loved. Marriage is not a simple things, it involved a lot of commitments and complicated route to be a stable and happy ever after marriage. So to achieve that stage,I feel that I need to marry with someone that I really love and same goes to her-love me as well. It is because we'll understand each other well and already know what we should do and what we shoudn't do.

i do believe in marraige.. ppl say that marraiges are made in heaven.. but then its all in ur hands whether its goin to be made in hell or heaven... its a lovely social institution that gives every individual a feel good factor and gives u a warm feeling that there is this one guy/woman who loves us a lot and is waitin for us to return the same.. marraige helps one by protecting them from gettin labelled by our so called "cultured society" unnecessarily!! its a tag that come along with u all the way till u die...:)

I believe in marriage only because its like giving a proof of your faith in love. If you love someone, marrying them proves that you will love them forever. And that's why its pointless to marry for social reasons (like arranged marriages) or because of an initial attraction which ultimately fizzles out or for money (the worst reason in my opinion). The most romantic thing in the world is to see people who are in their fifties and sixties who still treat each other the way they did when they were in their 20s and in love and who remained married for that long as well. Its like proof that there really is something like love, which is something we desperately need at times. But for that same reason, people shouldn't rush into marriage if they are not really having faith that they'll be together forever. Well, if not forever, that faith that they'll always love each other.

i do believe in marriage. and i will marry the one i truely love. i agree with you when you said that getting married shows how serious are you to each other to finally disable each other to have a relationship with anyone else.i prefer marriage than living in or cohabitation. Marriage offers more security both for each other and for the children, in terms of fatherhood/motherhood, and support.

yes is still do believe in marriage. in a world where divorce is so common marriage is the only thing that is stable enough to remain committed to your partner. it is romantic in terms of planning and its sacredness to vows and everything there is in it. however most people think that they dont believe in marriage because they fail to find the right person for them so they thought... marriage is a commitment made by two persons in love whether the marriage fails or not the memory of your partner who made smile, feel loved, and longed fall will never change... marriage is about love and respect for each other
