Marriage is the bond that holds people together. marriage is like a contract between a man and a woman, stating that they will be forever respectful, loving and caring for each other. without marriage, its just two people living together, that can depart at any time. living together does not hold the same bonds as marriage. marriage is a team working together for a common goal, their family. There are far fewer domestic violence cases between marriend men and women, rather than people just living together. why? married persons try to make it work and resolve their problems....together. people living together, just throw up their hands.......and leave. there is no commitment to each other.

It can be a beautiful thing when two people are committed to each other. Marriage is just a way to confirm it, to make a sort of promise. It can be one of the most valuable things in life, though it's not neccesarily...neccesary XD. Having someone you can always trust and be happy with is very important in life, and marriage can provide that.

I don't know why i have to have a paper to say im married. You just have to live it.

It doesn't have to be. If you love someone, you love them, a little band of gold and a ceremony won't change it. Marriages fall apart so easy too

My thought is...In marriage the paradox occurs that two beings become one and yet remain two. Meaning that you would not want to live with out the other person but could if you had to. A memory is more indelible than ink. A marriage is the same. You don't have to be "legally married" to be married it is a commitment to each other to honor one another with or with out the piece of paper. However, I prefer the piece of paper.

The organization "Americans for Divorce Reform" estimates that close to 50 percent of marriages end in divorce. Add to that a growing number of middle aged people that have NEVER been married (now over 25% of the US population) and the result is that in 2006, for the first time in history, there are more single females between the ages 16 to 70 than there are married females (US Census Bureau). This trend is a major change in our society as it indicates that marriage could be a vanishing institution in the US. Personally, I prefer a roommate relationship so we don't have to support two lawyers if we choose to go our separate ways.

it's not, it's more for moral and ethics
