Do you think you have to marry when you're in love?

I agree. Love is not enough. But I believe that things work together for good to those who love each other. So it's a valid reason to break up right away if your partner is financially unstable. Love is patient. There's always time for everything. We have to wait for the right time when we're both financially and emotionally ready. Marriage is not a race. We have to wait for the time when we are certain of our decisions.

Marriage is the result of being deeply in love with each other. I think, the first prerequisite in marriage is love and next the capability of raising your future family. Too many people think marriage as a simple thing to do, marriage now is like a science "trial and error" but I believe that even if some are doing it, most people are trying to value marriage. If love is not the reason of marriage then what would be the best reason to get married? would it be maturity and responsibility? or being ready?

I agree with you right there but love is a major reason why people marry. You need to be ready though financially and mentally because there are a lot of challenges and like what you have said, marriage is another stage in life. Making a big decision like this a very important thing. It cannot be undone once you entered it and like what you have said thinking like a million times is a must because it can affect not only our self but also others

I don't think that you have to marry when you fall in love but I would like to and I still think that it is something that can really cement your love with someone. Unfortunately marriage has seemed to have lost a lot of value because so many people have had divorces and things like that and now they bad mouth marriage claiming that it's the reason they've had relationship problems in the past. I personally would like to get married one day because I think it would be great to have my partner's and my family together to celebrate with us how much we love each other. I think it would be fun to also go through all the preparing for a wedding and of course having a honeymoon afterwards would be an incredible experience as well. I just think that marriage is something we can't rush into and something that we have to make sure that our partner is the right one for.

Marriage is not only about love. You need to be emotionally, mentally, physically, and financially prepared before you get marry. It;s not as easy as saying "I do" and after the your wedding day, everything will change and that's the start of your journey as man and wife. Having children is not easy too. As parent your responsibility is to give them proper food, clothes and shelter. So if you are just in love but is not well-prepared, think about it. Will you let your children suffer in the future?

Falling in love does not come with a user manual. You have to balance your emotions & your practical self. I personally don't feel that love is the only reason that people should get married to each other. Love is definitely essential & necessary but you need to have resources, stability & the mental makeup of getting married. Marriage is a huge life decision. For the most part, people get married only once. It should be memorable as well as the best decision that you & your partner would make in life... So, love should not be the only reason to get married...

well honestly i really can't see a reason to get married. i mean if two person are in love they will be together. if they fall out of love they will just part. what is the purpose of marriage then? does it mean been married you can't leave the person you don't love anymore? or you will stop loving the person because you are not married? married or not, one still need money to buy or rent a place and sustain basic needs. so i don't think money has got anything to do with it. unless one plans to sponge on their parents for the rest of their lives.

Hello my friend rodivina89 Ji, You are very much right that Love should never be the reason for marriage, marriages have different roll in society, first and foremost being the continuation of human race and due to which we are all hjere, had our fore-fathers abondend this idea our existance was not possible. Love is entirely different matter, if Love becomes needs for marriage it is a selfish moto. Marriages should be organised by both party of Girl and Boy. May God bless You and have a great time

For me the reason for people to marry is because of love. It is useless to say that we get to marry someone because of material thing. It maybe some people marry someone because of wealth and material thing. But that is a huge misunderstanding about love and to marry.

If a person had to marry just because of the fact that they were in love with a person, then I would be on at least my second marriage by now. Instead, I do think that the reason that people decide to get married is because of the fact that when you decide to be married to another person is that you will have rights as a married person that you do not have as a person that is simply involved in a relationship with another person.

You are correct

I think, within reason, wveryone should do what they feel like. Someone doesn'tz need the marriage to be happy and they only see the paper as just a paper or prison, whereas other people, who truly want to marry, marry because of the spiritual meaning of declaring love in front of the world... and of course there are people who mary for practical reasons, like cheaper loans...

This is a very good topic to respond to, so thank you. I'm a bit unclear myself about my stance on marriage. I read books, I observe other's lives, I complicate and I conclude, but in the end I still can't get the hang of it. And I know why, I've never experienced a loving relationship with a man. Nothing beats personal experience. But this I can say. I come from a broken family and it has affected me so much growing up. I saw my Mother suffered so much emotionally, and I saw how people disgraced my family by circulating gossips. Since my Dad left, we've suffered financial strains, but thankfully things are better now. Marriage is not only about the husband and wife, it also concerns all who are connected in their union. I truly dislike some people who rush in relationships. After only weeks getting to know their significant others, I wonder how they could declare their love to the skies. But maybe it's just me. Perhaps I don't trust love that much. If you ask me if I have to get married if I fall in love, my answer is neither. Really I just don't know!

I agree rodivina Nowadays it's really hard to get married without proper planning. Marriage is a serious thing in life so we must consider every steps we have made. Proper meditation and pray to God is really important to come up with a wise decision.

Marriage is not the right choice just because you are in love yet when you are really ready and secure that the person is your real soul mate then marriage is the last resort for your total happiness.

No, you don't need to marry someone just because you love them. You can just be with them, and enjoy them. Everyone seems to think or assume that you have to marry someone when you fall in love with them, but that isn't always the case. Sometimes, you can just choose to be with that person, no marriage plans whatsoever.

I don't think marraige is always necessary. What difference does it really make? Some people are bound to get married, others not. It doesn't mean you don't love your spouse as much or anything. I know tons of people who have been together for 7+ years (I know one couple where it's been 24 years!) who have never gotten married. Sometimes it keeps finances and other things more simple too. I guess all that really matters is that you & your spouse are on the same page!

just bcs you are in love it doesnt mean you have to get married^^ i think marriage is something that you have to be sure before do it. you can love someone but not feel ready to marry. i think if you are with a guy for like 3 years and are happy then yes you could. but no one should rush to marry^^ it will come the right moment^^ as long as you are happy and in love thats what matters^^ also maybe you should live with the guy first before marriage. so you see if you handle well the live together thing^^

You are right. Nowadays, we can't live a happy marriage with just love alone. We need to be practical. We need to be stable which means, enough money to raise a family, to give proper education to our would be children, and to have a proper foundation so we would have a secure marriage.

the most important thing is that you gotta love each other. And I like this because I am leader of the church and what I recomend is think about marriage as the vision of a relationship. If you don't have this in mind in your relationship you are just wasting your time. You gotta have a vision but don't get impressed if you have a couple of months in a couple. IF YOU LOVE EACH OTHER WHY NOT. But you must see if he has things that match your lifestile to get married. That's my advise. see ya!!!
