Yes but its your partner that you have to trust with your heart, money and future I think that marriage is hard work and it take both people to make it work

i didnt mean to say that a the relationship of a couple doesnt have a meaning before they get married.but we do have to live a society and marriage gives legal and social acceptance to the relationship.certainly doesnt mean we cant share joys and sorrows bfore marriage...what do u think??

Can this be done without being legally married and if so then is the marriage part just a piece of paper?

I'm unfit to comment over this title. I'm married and have children too. Many members rise this kind of titles, I dont know why? What you will do when you want children?

I believe in marriage for myself. I think marriage is more than just a piece of paper, it's devoting your life and love to someone else and them doing the same in return. When I married my husband, I married him for life. Too many people take marriage for granted and just walk out of it as soon as trouble starts. It is a lot of work and dedication, but it's worth it if u truely are in love with your spouse. If you have problems, you work on them and try to fix them instead of just leaving.

Thank you very much. Sadly, I have to say that it's looking like it's not going to turn out that way. Can't fix a marriage if only one person is truely trying!

Well, that's an interesting question. When I was young, my parents drove me crazy to get married; I had a child. I could see their point, from their point of view. I tried to convince them that a piece of paper does not, a marriage make. Needless to say, we got married. Six years later I left with the kids. Thirty years later, I had to get a divorce so I could get remarried. I didn't want to get married the second time either, but I did so because it was important to my boyfriend. I still think that it takes much more than a piece of paper to make people stay in a marriage. I will always be with my husband; not because we are married, but because I love him.

Yes I believe in marriage. I feel that there is one person made for me and I am lucky to find that person. He is part of me and wihtout him i would be incomplete. Hence he completes me.

Yes.. I do believe in marriage. But if we get married, it should nt just for getting someone to sleep with. This is the bond in which we share our life and soul with our partner. We should marry the one we love.

But is love enough? Sometimes you can love someone and still not be able to stay with them.

Yes I do believe in marriage. but I dont believe that every couple has to get married, I think each couple needs to do what they feel is best.

yes i agree that every couple has the right to do what they want... but don't you think marriage gives them a platform to do as they wish...

I never used to, but now that I am older and have found the one I want to be with my mind is changing on the matter. I think that we have much to discuss before hand, bt I am taking it one day at a time. Marriage can be a good thing my parents married for 35 years now so it can work.

I believe very strongly in marriage, which considering we will soon be celebrating 36 years of married life, should come as no surprise. LOL Marriage is a committment between 2 people to honour, love, cherish, support and trust each other, in good time and in bad. Also I think that in marriage, a couple are more willing to work together to sort out any differences and overcome any hardships they might face.

If a couple wishes to get married there is nothing wrong with it. However if they wish not to again there is nothing wrong with it. It is a choice.
