Is marriage important to you? Why?

Well..is it? and does it mean something special since you can't just live together and have to make all the fuss to sign this "important" paper ?

I think that marriage is not so important... you can live together with your partner through life without getting married.. I think that's normal. Marriage to me doesn't say anything nor does it mean anything to me.... since a marriage doesn't promise that the man won't leave you or having a affair with another woman

Besides..when I think of marriage it just gives me goosebumps..it's so embarrassing to have the ceremony and celebration.. o_o

I guess marriage is important to me.. You got to stick with the person you marry forever lol.. but i also think that you marrying that person means that you are committed to staying with that person forever.. it's more than just a piece of paper, and if I ever get married, I want to make sure that I'll never want a divorce, I hate those

maybe you might not want to ever divorce, but your partner might not think so. marriage is just a lousy piece of paper. just live together and live happy doing so.

I don't think marriage is very important. You can still live together with the person you love without getting married, but they say there's no point in living together if you're never going to get married

I think marriage is just a sign of committment to God (for those who are religious) or just to the public basically.

As you can see divorce rates are higher than marriage rates or something like that, therefore marriage is not something that is that important to me.

Marriage will make more troubles. If you both are happy to be together, you will not care about the paper. The people who care about the paper is only worry about how to get your half of assets. That mean they are ready for divor, why they need to be together. If you have no paper, you can just start a new life after separation. Then life is more easy and happier.

I won't touch on the emotional attachments of marriage because that is quite subjective.

The important thing about marriage is the legal bond it creates between two people. If anything unfortunate should happen, the spouse would have legal rights and control of assets. Also in Canada, if someone is injured and needs to ride in an ambulance, only a family member or spouse can ride along with them to the hospital.

I think marriage is important. I mean, it's showing your commitment to them.
Possibly the most happiest thing in life?
