Kenneth Blacker: Marriage is not "neccesary" And less so with how high the divorce rate is. However - to pick one person from your life, and say :It is you that I choose above all others, without you I am not quite complete" That is an honour to both partners. A confirmation that this love is higher than what was before. A decleration of trust and commitment in front of everyone. Depending on one's outlook on life, it might be totally unnecessary, and commitment is not needed, only love! I for one would rather someone love me, and move on when the time comes, than staying because they feel they must!...Show more
Alden Sabio: Would you have children,,,,if so it would be necessary to commit to a union,,,so you become one unit, ...Marriage is not only about commitment, its a decision that you will share a lifetime together, under Gods guidance,,,,but if you are a atheist,,,dont bother....
Neville Dautremont: No you don't have to get married but it is natural ! if you love someone and want kids - still the right thing to do although a piece of paper does not guarantee it would last
Renato Abatiell: I reserve my comments, heh heh heh...^^((()))^^
Nestor Klan: marriage isn't necessary. you can love someone without a piece of paper. anyone that says you need a marriage certificate to really love someone has never really loved someone.
Derick Kinnard: Zim you will have different views on this one and it depends on the person. I am a religious person and for me, marriage was introduced by God. This is the way I have been raised and brought up and the way i do with my children as well.I can only speak for myself and not for others.
Venetta Coulbourne: If you're a symbolic person, it might just be significant. I'm torn between the two. You dont really need to be married to be comitted, even married people part and others unfortunately commit adultery. So I do agree that commitment does come out of love.On the re! al, with laws coming into the picture, marriage sorts out a lo! t of legal things (insurance etc), but then the times are changing and unmarried couples living together for over six months are considered married by law.Also for some women, its a nice little fairytale dream to walk down the aisle in that white dress and say "I do" in the house of the Lord and adorn a pretty wedding band (symbolism)....Show more
Neely Youngblut: It's for the santuary of the children, economically and emotionally. If there are no children involved, I think for both partners, it's just a kind of 'insurance policy' - once you're older and past your prime, it won't be that easy to dump you. I know you're going to say that that would mean your relationship wasn't strong enough, but there are too many x-factors in life. Hormones get the better of you in middle age, temptation arises, your situation could change where your husband becomes very wealthy through the years and becomes a target for gold diggers, etc. etc....Show more
Ezekiel Kadner: Th! at depends on whether you are religious or not. For many religious people (Christians, Muslims, Jews etc)...marriage is the unification of two people before the eyes of God. If you don't believe in God.....then I suppose marriage isn't necessary. You can live together if you want. Marriage doesn't necessarily mean commitment, and it's a pain to get a divorce so I suppose that's why some people get put off the idea of marriage. Other reasons would be that they don't feel a piece of paper shows that they're married, many people already feel married to their partners without having to go through the process. I do believe commitment comes out of love. If you love someone, why would you cheat on them?...Show more
Chadwick Schmelz: because it people just lived together without commitment look at all the children who wouldn't know there true parents and without marriage it is sin in the eyes of God
