I don't think it's essential to every body. Maybe this thought is what has caused the divorce rate to be so high? I think that marriage is a taken too lightly and it is rushed into and people end up hurt and broken up in the end. For me, marriage is a deep commitment, one that I cherish and could never take lightly. My husband and I are completely devoted to eachother . It's is quite a selfless act and it's sad to me that it seems to be so tainted now... You aren't meant to marry every person you date or are involved with. I also never seriously dated someone I couldn't see myself married to...so maybe we are all just confused about the idea and this is why everyone thinks they " have to " get married.

Not sure what you're asking - do you mean "why is marriage essential to everybody to lead a normal life?"
If so, the answer is No, not everyone is meant to marry or settle in a long lasting relationship.
The real question should be "Am I ready/ willing to be in a committed / long lasting relationship" - only you can answer that one.

I do understand what you are saying. I think you are saying why does everyone feel they have to marry in life. I would say well some feel like having someone special in there lives, they want kids and a family and they just want some companionship.
I know alot of people who live happy alone but that is a choice needless to say they are both guys but it does happen in woman or we would not have nuns in the catholic church.
I think marriage is important to alot of people because it is
another adventure in our lives. A new beginning as a couple
saying goodbye to single life and starting anew with someone beside you. Having someone to spend time with a lover and a friend and if your a guy a mother to your future children and a lifelong pal.

It's not essential but it's always good to have because you end up with a life partner that you can love endlessly, having children, and creating your own family.
I think people think of marriage as something they want to do down the road because they want to start a family of their own.
Besides, who wants to be lonely 30 years from now?

I don't think it's essential to everyone. If it was essential, why would there be so many abusers, cheaters. For myself, I'd like to get old with someone, to share the ups and downs. Is it essential? No, but I really hope it happens.

It isn't essential, however, if you get the right partner, sharing the experiences may compliment Life. However if you get the wrong partner you are better off alone. Is can still be great though. Also God blesses us al equally if if we are not married. Marriage is not mandatory.
