I don't really believe that you need to be married to someone to be their life partner.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You don't have to be married to have a good friend as your partner for life.
I don't need to be married, but I feel married.
So I think you have to marry for the right reasons, and marry the right person.
Marriage is an institution, and you must be fully committed to it.
You have to want to be married to someone. You have to feel that reciprocated. Marriage for marriage's sake doesn't make any sense to me, and I found someone with whom I could put my money where my mouth is, I guess.
I do not believe, even remotely, that you have to have a partner in your life in order to be whole, in order to be complete, in order to be fulfilled. You just don't have to.
I was a firm believer that if you get married, then that should be it. But it's sadly not always the case; sometimes people can't remain together for whatever reason.
Marriage is a commitment for life. It is a permanent, lifelong relationship.
As marriage goes, I think most people sort of set being - you know getting married as the goal as opposed to being married.
You've got to want to be married to the person you're married to.
