it's not necessary and it doesn't mean losing your freedom.it's just a promise that you'll always be with the one you love

It is not necessary. But it is not loosing your freedom either.
Marriage is just a symbol to show others that you are both committed to each other. Marriage is for the rest of the world to see, because the two getting married already must know how committed the other significant one is in the relationship.
And about freedom:
If you define freedom as your capacity to be with anyone you want at any time you want and do whatever your body or mind desires, then marriage or any other kind of committed relationship will mean loosing your freedom. But once you really love somebody you won't need that kind of freedom anymore!

im not married, i have lived with the same man for 16yr now, and I dont think you need marriage to "prove" anything as long as you love each other.
I dont think marriage means you loose your freedom or idenity. if you want to spend the rest of your life with 1 person then do so. but do it for love and friendship.
even when married you just tell your partner before marriage what you think being married means to you to see if they see them same way.
let the other person know that the things you like to do now you would like to continue doing the rest of your life and this is what makes you-you>>
you can still do things separately, and do some things as a married couple. as long as the other person dont spend ALL their time without the other. some time apart is good for a marriage.
after being married and the other person feels neglected or ignored alot will start thinking of why or resenting their partner from doing what they want to do.( does not include having an affair) if you dont want to be with just 1 person and the other partner only wants 1 person then you shouldnt get married. married is a COMMITTMENT TO 1(ONE) PERSON. NOT OTHERS. JUST TO EACH OTHER.

Not for me. I have a brother who went with this woman for over 15 years. They got along great together. Got married and couldn't stand each other. Got divorced 4 months after marriage. I don''t have any thing against marriage. It is wonderful for some people. Maybe most. I just don't believe it is necessary for happiness. Too much made of it.

Marriage is not necessary. However it is a right (and responsibility) that every adult should have the option of doing. Marriage protects people, especially with money and taxes. But I know people who have been together years upon years who don't ever plan on getting married.

Main reason for marriage is protection of any children that result. Besides a commitment of love and faithfulness to each other (which is important), it is a legal contract where each person is obligated to care for (financially and emotional) any children. It is designed to help in building a safe and secure environment for them to grow in. Should the marriage end, each parent is still legally obligated to support the children.
It also protects the spouse as it gives them legal rights such as inheriting property in the event one of them dies. The legal right to make financial and medical decisions should one of them be injured. Rights to social security, pension, insurance, etc.
In a marriage what freedom would you lose? The right to screw around with other people? Even without marriage, who would want a partner who cheats on them!!! You lose nothing by committing love and faithfulness to each other.

If you want freedom , you don't need to. Marriage is sacred and a must to everyone who wants to settle down, build a family. It is not a game or like food that when you eat it and it's hot you can spit it out. Marriage is something that you need to work for to become successful. Think it over.

Not really, but it's not really a loss of freedom (at least it shouldn't be). The only way I've heard of it being a loss of freedom is if the person was married to opressive a**hole. The only freedom you lose is to go out sleep with as many people as you want.
