i definitely married for love. i can't imagine my life without him. convenience would be something like, he got you pregnant, you don't like living with your parents, etc. definitely NOT my situation.

I suggest that if you marry someone you LIKE them, respect them and care for them...LOVE is an action not an emotional feeling. Marriage of conveniences never work and 54% of the time neither do marriages for "love" (the feeling not the action) The marriages that work out are based on mutual respect and both parties putting in 100% no 50/50 If you go into a marriage only giving 50% it will fail. Each person must contribute 100% of the time and engery because marriage is not a state of being it is work. People are fired from jobs for treating each other the way most spouses treat each other!!
I hope this gives you the insight you seek!

I married my spouse for "love". Unfortunately, he married me for the convience of having someone do everything for him. My husband didn't have to lift a finger.
Anyway, the difference is "emotion". When you love someone your emotions become involved. When its convience you really don't care about if your relationship lives or dies.

We have been married for 44 years. We didn't fall madly in love at first sight, but could relate to each other easily. The love grew over time and is stronger now than at the beginning.
On the matter of telling you the difference, if you do not understand the difference between convenience and love, then I respectively suggest you stay single.

Sure did for LOVE certainly not the money LOL. And we only practiced 3 years before I told him to s-___t or git off the pot. 26 great years now and looking forward to the next 26.
Mutual respect is important. Friends have mutual respect. Being friends with the one you are in love with and communication, intimacy and being able to discuss that openly makes a more depthful relationship. You both have to deeply care about the feelings and concerns of one another. I knew he was my love as everytime I saw him I got an oowssh in my stomach. That went on for years. All he had to do was walk into the room and I melted. Apparently, it was the same for him. Even after the kids came. Same thing.

I married for convenience the 1st time and then fell in love, but I married for love the 2nd time and apparently he fell out of love (which is still a mystery to me) - but I know I will NEVER marry again - I'm mature and smart enough now to understand that if you love someone and they love you that you do not need to be married to be committed to each other. My idea of a perfect relationship at this point in my life would be to have a relationship with a man who had his own place, I have my own place - we can spend as much time together as we need and as much time apart as we need.
I NEVER want to feel like I "need" someone again. ** please take into consideration that I am still mending a very broken heart and currently an active member of the man haters club. LOL!!!

I was married for convenience - financially, aloneness and just keeping things smooth running in both of our lives - we are now the best of friends because we realised it wasn't love. Now however I'm not married to the man I love because we don't see the marriage as necessary. We are in eachothers thoughts everyday and do everything that we consider love.

2 times for love, never for convience how dumb would that be and it probably wouldn't last anyway.

for love nine years ago on the 29th. convience is when you marry the one you can live with...love is when you marry the one you can't live without!

I married for love. A marriage of convenience is noty a marriage at all - cuz there is nothing CONVENIENT about being with someone you don't love!
There's an old saying "If you marry for money, you will EARN every cent".....
