I think that you can get more passionate about somebody the longer you're with them and the more you know them and the more you go through together. Being married is definitely better than it's cracked up to be I think.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love being married more than anyone. It's what I always wanted. I found the person who's perfect for me, and we have a great time and a great partnership.
I guess because it feels more open, but I think being married is way sexier, because it's really like your soul partner in a permanent fashion, and then you strive for it to be something permanent, and that type of commitment and trust, if you can achieve it, is so good for the soul.
If you intellectualize the idea of marriage, it can be quite daunting, no matter how much in love you are.
I think long-lasting, healthy relationships are more important than the idea of marriage. At the root of every successful marriage is a strong partnership.
Marriage is not super-important to me - most end in divorce. I love the idea of being with someone forever, but I don't think it happens very often.
Marriage is... OK, it's rooted and grounded on love and attraction.
I believe that the essence of marriage is choosing someone who loves you for who you are, embraces everything about you, and building a life with that person. Whether that life is with children or without children - it's honestly immaterial to building a life with someone that you love fully.
Passion is the quickest to develop, and the quickest to fade. Intimacy develops more slowly, and commitment more gradually still.
It couldn't be a simpler answer. Marriage doesn't really mean anything to me. I feel like in many ways marriage is more for the families of the couple than for the people involved, so I don't gravitate to it.
Long-term relationships are an everyday choice. It's harder to be in a marriage than it is to bounce from one relationship to the next.
