LOVE is a beautiful phase in life, but sometimes it is short term,hence we should not confuse it with our whole life which is different, i feel love need not always lead to marriage? what do you say.

Although I am neither married nor in lov, there is a vast realtion betwen these two terms. However I dont think that love always should end in mariage always because of two reasons. 1) Often Marriage brings a lot of contradictions in love, as marriage also is a lot of compromises. 2) for the sake of one love the other loves cannot be compromised with at times.

'CONTRADICTIONS IN LOVE'thats a nice observation many are not aware of these contradictions, but tell me is not right for people to be a little cautious when dealing with issues like love , because it will affect their life in the long run.

i agrgee with you that love does not always lead to marriage... it can be settled with a commitment that two or more people can be with like friendship.

What i wish to say is blind love should not be the basis for marriage, commitment is more important.otherwise as you rightly said we can just remain good friends.

Why it should lead to marriage? I had loved more than 4 girls in my life but got married to one only, other are still till my good friend.

That is precisely what i was talking about, you should marry only if all other factors are fine between the two of you not merely blind love. Anyway all the best in your married life.

I don't really understand why you assume that love is always brief or that commitment has nothing to do with. How can there be commitment without love? There are different kinds of love and some are not mature enough for a long-term commitment or marriage, but that's not all love. And what is marriage without love? Why even bother? I don't think every love should always lead to marriage, but marriage should always be led into by love.

if it is true love and that you are really sure about it. why not? you can marry him or her if your ready and you think his the one for you. But if not you must think twice, maybe its just a need of your body or just an infatuation. But in my case I love my husband thats why i marry him.

I agree to your views partly, Love has got many meanings and definations, whether love can lead to marriage it depends upon the mutual trust and understanding between the two partners who are in love to decide whether they can get married and carry their relationship forever.
