Marriage is the ultimate commitment. It is a statement of your love and respect for another. It is the most serious commitment of your life. See the problem is there are too many cows giving the milk for free; that is why the divorce rate is approx. around 50%. If you are spiritual and study, you would know that a single women's role was to learn about how to be positive, supportive, and understanding of God's commandments. But, because of temptation(money, sex, power, etc....) we could not say no to; we suffer. There are so many people scarred emotionally because they got with someone who God only placed in their life for a season....But, does summer last all year long? No. There has to be rain and cold...to support growth. A real lover is not just a lover of the night; a real lover is there in the day and through the storms. It sounds like you need to read, Corithians-Chapter 13 (The love chapter)

When u think of getting married, u don't think of divorce. That is not a good way to start a marriage. U love and enjoy that person, vice verse. A really good reason is when ur spiritually connected, then u know ur ready. But don't think about divorce before u get married, that means u know there a way out before ur in it.

There is only one valid reason for getting married… LOVE!!!
A divorce rate of higher than 50% shouldn’t be seen as suggesting that ‘marriage’ is wrong…
It should be seen as something being wrong with the laws covering ‘divorce’!!!
Compare the number of married couples who break up, to the number of non-married couples who break up, and you will find that the results are very much in favour of marriage!
Take a look at the large number of divorced couples who re-marry their partner, because they realised the divorce was a mistake.
There is something seriously wrong with divorce laws that make it easier to end a marriage, than it is to save one!!!

Divorce these days it just way to easy to do. Well i don't get along with them anymore. It's true that 50% of marriages don't make the 2 yr anniversary anymore, its a real shame.
The reason to get married is that is the person you want to spend your life with, and raise a family.

You will buy a lottery ticket with one chance in 10,000,000 to win. That means you have a 99.9999 percent chance in losing.
You get married with at 50 percent chance of making it. I don't see your point. If I have a 50 percent chance of having a great marriage I would go for it.
Why look at the negative look at the positive.

Well, I ask the same question. Then I tell myself I want to get married because I want to have children one day and children who come from broken homes and unwed mothers usually grow up without being taught proper values. I want to teach my children the value of family because my parents are still together and I see what a good family is like and how I want my children to perceive what a good life is.

Exactly. That is one reason I don't want to get married. If you care about someone, you don't need a piece of paper to show it. If you decide to part ways, it's easier and cheaper to just part ways instead of having a divorce.
On the other hand I think you should get married if you want kids, to set a good example. But I don't want kids.... So there. :)

The possiblity that you may not have to be lonely again, that you have bonded with someone who won't forsake you, that you will become one unit with this person and raise a family that will carry on your name and bloodline for generations to come. It's all about the possibilities. The only thing that keeps us doing a lot of things is hope and that goes for marriage as well.

It is just a traditional thing to do. It combines two separate spirits to become one when you get married. But now a days tradition has been thrown out the window so if you don't want to get married don't. If you partner is fine with it then why not.

There is no good reason unless you are going to take steps to ensure your marriage will be successful. Most couples do not have the skills to build a strong marriage, but they can be learned. Love is not enough - it takes a lot more than that.
