who started marriage system........lol

It's an interesting question. I know that the ancient Greeks had marriage ceremonies, two and a half thousand years ago. Some of their gods and godesses were married so it must have existed for thousands of years before that time. I think marriage was originally a way of ensuring that all men supported their women and children and did not just have a quick fling and then leave. It was a also way of building dynasties and gaining wealth and power through dowries and marriage contracts, which had little to do with love.

yea dear when the first couple was sent to earth and came here they start marriage system i am not being able to tell you whole history due to the language probleme.

I cannot tell you who was the first couple who got married, because my history is very poor....LOL!This much I was told - in the very olden times, there was no institution of marriage. Anyone could get as many partners as he wanted. There was no set system. To streamline the proceduce, the institution of marriage was started so that one male could stay with one female as partner, for a life long time. They could bear kids and bring them up. If one was attached to tied to one partner, the chances of polygamy got reduced and it was crystal clear, who was whose partner. It is, therefore, the instution of marriage was started centuries ago by the society.

As a Muslim, i believe that Adam and Eve were the first couple in Heaven and then were sended to earth and they were giving birth to kids, after that they start marrying their kids as couples , andthat was start of Man kind on planet earth.

dear friend, our ancient people started this method,because at the time of our ancient people they used toenjoy any lady/gent.In this situation the strongbodied people are only getting chances of enjoyment but the weak people are not getting chances.At that time the old people of the community sat together and discussed on the situation and they thought outfor the solution. At last they decided to have one man with one woman and viceversa. Likethat the marriage system has emerged.

That is a very interesting question with which I am sure will be many different answers. I have researched it (well looked at one site) and must say that have various different ideals for marriages.... Not really saying about the first recorded marriage or such but if you would like the link I would be happy to share it with you.

God instituted the first marriage when he presented Eve to Adam. In Genesis 2: 22-23 23And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 24Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. There wasn't a ceremony as we have them today because there weren't any witnesses beside God. God then told them to produce children. Adam lived well into his 900 years and Eve may have live as long too. Since they were created as adults they could have had well over 7oo children. Cain, Able and Seth were not their only children. They were the only named children. Since there was genetic purity there was no harm in marrying a brother or sister or nieces and nephews.

Honestly i don't have the faintest of idea nor i have ever thought about about it.But really nice thinking.

I donot know Apsara. But I can guess. It was the time when people got emotionally attached that they began to feel the power of love, bond and care. Physicality had always been there - that was the basic instinct but its the emotional bond that made us marry and stay together. I could be wrong though.
