I want to get married because I want more in a relationship than a weekend or a couple nights a week. I want to not ever have to say goodbye to the person I love. I want that person 7 days a week like I said, not just on the weekend. I want to love someone and that person love me back. Basically, I want to share my life with the person I love.

Everyone has to give marriage a shot. Since this will be my first marriage, if it ends in divorce, well then i guess i won't be getting married again. AND NO im not smarter than Albert, just more determined

I don't think it's about being smart. And so the odds are against it, should we never try anything that is not guaranteed or easy? I want to get married to change that statistic, to show my children and grandchildren that my grandparents had the right idea for being together for going on 45 years. I want to show them that it is possible and that it is worth it. I want to get married because my fiance is an amazing person and he deserves an amazing wife. Why are you so OK with letting go of the idea of what marriage could be and is supposed to be? Its not going to be easy, but I am getting married because I love him enough to give him my everything!

People who get divorced do not have honest communications or even honest intentions most usually. There is something missing in the beginning of those relationships and they dont realize it.. People give up too easily too... they fight for awhile and think its hopeless and leave w/o really giving it an honest chance.
Why do you buy a car when the life of most cars end in wrecks or mechanical problems? Lol.. just a different way to think about it.

To be with the person you know you are in love with, no body thinks they will get divorced when they get married its a chance people take because they want to be committed to that person.
You dont sound like a very positive person so your marriage probably would end in divorce.

I feared marriage for years. Ended a long term relationship that disintegrated when I wouldn't marry him. But, life is funny. I met a wonderful man, 20 years younger (he's 25 now, I'm going to be 45) we got married last year. I have never been happier, I feel like everything that was wrong with my life is right now. When it is right, you just know.

It's not a question of smarter--it's a question of finding someone you want to spend your life with. I believe in marriage--I know very few marriages that have ended in divorce. My parents have been married for 30 years, most of my friends' parents are still married, most of my friends who have gotten married are happy and are in great relationships.
I want to get married because I love my fiance. I want to get married because I look forward to spending a lifetime with my fiance--I know him well now, but I look forward to how well I will know him in 30, 50 or (g-d willing) 70 years.
I want to get married because I love that there is someone out there, who is not blood related to me, who I can be 100% myself with and who still loves me all day, every day.
I want to get married because I found the person who I want to be around all the time--even when he makes me angry, even when we disagree, even when I'm tired of his silly little quirks. I still want to be around him.
I want to get married because I look forward to a happy life.
Just because you don't want to get married, just because Albert Einstein's marriage didn't work, and just because a lot of the marriages out there end in divorce doesn't mean that the entire world is crazy for wanting to get married.
Call me an optimist, call me whatever you wish, but I believe in marriage. Moreso, I believe in my upcoming marriage.

Being married is about commitment., not gray matter.
And if you have found the formula that works for you & your beloved, then yes, you are FAR smarter then Einstein.

I married because we both loved each other & want to be together for the rest of our lives. You cant be scared all the time of getting divorced & let that stop you from getting married. Live life to the fullest. You are always going to have bad things & good things happen. And you cant go on living life being constantly scared of what might happen. It is better to love once than to not love at all.

Not smarter, perhaps more patient even luckier than him but definitely not smarter, Marriage is not about being smart, I can't tell you what works cause I'm still trying to figure it out but I can tell you smarts has nothing to do with it.
