Marriage is a commitment.  A legal one at that.   If you're a male under
25 yrs. it's good for car insurance.  It grants the subscribers
social rights and priviledges.  Weddings are fun for family and friends
but people legally marry with no show at all.  People get married because
they want to be with each other forever.  At least they're hoping that
they'll want that forever.  Being married may help relationships through
serious problems.  One may tend to evaluate a temporal crisis with respect to
the long term goals because it's a little more difficult to make hasty
decisions.  Marriage is security.  That doesn't hurt.  I'd say being happily
married is more fun than happily living together and unhappy marriage
is worse than an unhappy relationship.  All in all though it doesn't
really matter if your married or not.  You either love each other and want
to be together always or you don't.
