Why Do people Marry

people marry to live with the person they love forever without doubt of seperation. nowadays however divorces are more common and so defeats the point sometimes.

People marry because it's their own choice...God has given us the free will and It is also because God designed humans to get married...We all need a helpmate, way back in the garden of Eden, God created Adam but then eventually He said in Gen.2:18 "...it is not good that the man should be alone,I will make him a helper suitable for him." Some stay single and miss the opportunites and God's best in their lives simply because of wrong decisions and their free will.

People get married because they don't realize how good single life really is. LOL It is nice to have someone around though.

There are as many reasons for getting married as there are people....people get married because they are in love ( I think that is the best reason), or because they want a companion, or because they want financial security, or because they have children to raise. Your reasons for getting married depend totally on what kind of person you are and what you want out of life.

Marriage is a dream for many people, they want it when they were very young, and finally they get married. Also marriage is a nightmare for many people, especially when they got married. Most of us want to realize our dream of marriage, because we don't understand what marriage is, we want to do it maybe because we think our parents did it so we should do it. Before you get married, marriage is a hope, you can put anything you want into this hope. When you get married, marriage is a bear, a responsibility, or ..., no matter what it is, it is very heavy.

I married for a very simple reason. I could not bear to spend a day without my (now)husband. Marriage was a way to seal that union , provide stability, and show the whole world how much he means to me.

Since I am going through my second divorce, I don't have a positive outlook on marriage right now. Why do people marry?? Because they are stupid. They have a lot of hopes and dreams that will never become reality. They don't see the heartbreak that is forthcoming in their futures. They think they will survive while all others around them don't. Magical thinking occurs. Blinders have been applied. They think in terms of fantasy rather than reality. Marriage is hard. It is a contract between two people and two families. It is a family-based business of building a home and raising children. Stupid people like me let emotions and feelings become a part of the relationship. Bottom line, emotions and feelings don't belong in a marriage. It hurts too much when the marriage fails.

Marriage is not just for lust. In fact lust comes first when you think about your partner just for fun sake. Marriage is symbol of complete relationship which is legal too. Everybody needs someone besides them forever. So rather then changing partners and cheating or getting cheated by someone chose one good partner and stay with him/ her forever.

some people marry because they have to like arranged marriages which i disagree with, if two people are being forced together and dont like it then just because they are married doesn't mean they will learn to like or love each other although some do. I want to get married because i think it provides a better commitment between two people, your saying we are making the next step and proving that i dont want to be with anyone else just you. I also think that because its not that easy to walk away from a marriage if you fall out over something silly you are more likely to work things out rather than separate and not look back if you were not married

I married because I found the person I want to be with forever or at least as long as I can. We have a child and I like the idea of the family unit and all of us having the same surname even if it his! (lol) Marriage is hard work and love alone will not sustain it. The important thing, I think is the knowledge that no matter what happens and how many disagreements we may have we are both here for the duration and will only walk away after every stone has been turned and we talk, communication is paramount.

what do you want to know about marriage? If marriage is kept as an option then think about the future. Who will be the father of whom? What will be the condition of women? There is always a gate in our life. 1. ssc board exam (gate that shows our capability and strength) 2. hsc (gate that decides the future) 3. Job (gate that shows how much we will have to beg) 4. Marriage (gate that shows responsibility and respect towards others)

People marry to share their life with someone. Marriage is not just to share happiness but to share sa moments together. It gives warmth and relief in ones life. People marry to be happy and to be more responsible person. People marry to be a complete man and woman. People also marry to have their own family. I just want to say that I am a married woman and am very happy in my married life, enjoying every drop of share, care, happiness, sorrow and love in my life. I would just say everyone should marry, why be alone and one individual..be together and see the difference and experience the real happiness of this world.

for me,marriage will happen if i fall in love with someone and want to spend the rest of my life with him only. this will be very sweet and i do hope i can find someone.

if two persons decide to get marry that's because they want to have a family, they want to be with each another for lifetime. It's a very nice feeling if both of you are committed to make the relationship works. Human as we are, we want to loved and be loved in return. It really feels so good to be cared, to be treasured by someone. That's what keeps me from going on...and on.. and on...

I think people get married for different reasons. It all depends on that individual and how they have matured as a person. It may also depend on what culture or religion they are. I wouldn't marry unless I truly loved that person because I believe that a marriage will not last unless two people have a true commitment to each other and are compatible. They also both need to be in the same place where they are ready to be married in addition to having similar values and beliefs on may different things in life. That's why I feel that there are such high divorce rates. People change or they didn't go into the marriage expecting the same things..in additon to the depreciating value of marriage these days among some folks. Anyway, the point is there are various reasons why people get married, some shouldn't be the reasons why such as (being lonely, having low self-esteem and thinking you can't do better with your life, etc) but obviously those marriages won't work until you go into them with proper intentions on both parties and if those people willing to work on it continuously.

People prefer to marry to have a companion whom they can love forever. If you think about why women go for marriage, they marry for security and financial support. Men want to marry for love and to satisfty their physical needs. When men look more into physcial needs and support, women look more into mental support and physical need has only a small part.

Hi dear prasanthalva, in my opinion marriage is a combination of all these. Initially it may take place keeping in view only one side of it. But eventually it encompasses everything into it. Some think that marriage is a license to conjugal life while some think that it is to bring up children. Some other think it is to get a partner to share both happiness and sorrow of life. All these are seeing the elephant by blind persons as have been told in the famous story almost known to all. (No intention to hurt anybody). But if considered deeply and taken properly it provides everything. Happy lotting

Marriage is a way of telling the society and announcing to the world that these two people will live together as man and wife for the rest of their lives. People do have different views about it these days but I think that is the best way to go about things and complete the entire cycle. Of course you have live in relationships and all but these can't substitute marriage.

we need to have a partner in life because it is a God's given destiny for us...it was designed in order that we will be complete, satisfied, loved,and cared...also,it was designed by God so that we can function in His economy...

I honestly dont know if i believe in marriage anymore the way people just get married for no reason nowadays its hard to tell...id love to get married one day but i want to make sure im with the person for longer than 5 years before i say i do...lol.. people use to marry for love but i dont know how many years back it all jsut seemed to go straight to hell.people started getting married for money, because they didnt have a choice in the matter and the list just goes on and on...so i cant just answer why people marry eachother but its still fun to make fun of and discuss lol
