Given how marriage benefits men at the expense of women, why do women want to marry (aside from arranged marriages)?

Married men live longer than unmarried women but unmarried women live longer than married women. So why would a woman want to marry a man?

Because, if my relationship lasts, which there is no reason to believe it won’t, I’d love to spend the rest of my life with him.

We have very similar goals and ideals. We are very compatible. We have a lot of things to accomplish still, and we are young.

I hope it works out. I’m not concerned about his health. He is extremely athletic.

Where did you get that bogus information from?
