Is there any point in getting married?

A marriage is what you make of it. If you do not do your part, the marriage will fall apart, even if you have a great husband or wife. But usually when you commit and do your work, the other person will as well, because they know they are lucky to have you.

Marriage used to be about property rights for women only through marriage to a man. That has changed to some degree in Western countries in the last 75 years or so. But there are still aspects of legal rights that are tied to marriage.

Other than the legal and financial stuff, there is the social status aspect of formalized commitment and the peace of mind when children enter the picture. But divorce is always an option. So marriage is no real guarantee of long term commitment.

It is really for you to decide. Some people find no value in it, while others structure their life around it.

No point at all. Marriage is just a piece of paper. It does not make you much healthier, much richer, live longer, much happier. It is a waste of money and is all for the benefit of other people.

To show your love for each other. But yeah a lot of guys don’t like the legal and financial entanglements of marriage, especially if they make more than their wife.

Would you marry a eunuch who loves you?

[WhitneySnow]

@Jordi2525 only if I loved them back

Get married and then divorce them immediately after with no explanation to speed run the full cycle of marriage.

For many people there is, and for even more people today there is not.
