I'm not sure whether this old saying is true or not. Sometimes i find it is true, but sometimes i don't think so. Do you marry? Can you tell me your feeling after marriage? Is marriage the tomb of love?

Is marriage really so difficult to run? I think if we use our heart, it'll be much easier.

I am not married, so I can't say for sure, but from the relationships that I have seen that were successful, marriage is probably the tomb of love. I'll give you some reasons for why marriage is the tomb of love. When your growing up, in my opinion the tomb of love is probably the family unit. Whether that be your mom, brother, sister etc These are the people that care for you, help you, and as a result you do show some love towards them whether that be through gifts or returning of those favors to you. However, these people are not with you for ever, your siblings will go overseas, they may get married or you may do these things. Your parents will get older, they will not be there for you anymore. So the person that will take care of you, give you a helping hand, give you advice, love you will be your spouse. He or she will be the person that will be there for you for the next 30-40 years depending on when you get married. So this person will be in your life far longer than any other person. Therefore, with respect to the tomb notion, I do believe that marriage is like a tomb. Once entered your almost there till you pass away. Whether it be a tomb of love, is for you and your spouse to decide. It can be a miserable and rocky tomb or a stable and warm hearted tomb. That is for you both to make and for your children to cherish and go on and have they're own tombs of love.

I'm not married but it's true that for some people marriage can really be the tomb of love. Some people close to me had a good relationship until they married. I wonder why does that happen. Maybe it's because they were traditional and didn't begin living together until they married. It's better to test the compatibility in spending too much time together before going through all paperwork and money expenses that marriage implies.
