"Love is totally nothing to do with marriage although often it is why people choose to get married. Marriage is a social construct which can trap people in loveless and sexless existences because of the shame or fear of divorce. Divorce is a beautiful act of self love where you realise that you are worthy of happiness and have no need to sacrifice it for the kids or to keep the sham of a marriage going. And love and lifelong commitment to one person can happen without any need for marriage. " Hi lusciously, yes, you are right there, love is one of the reasons why people choose to get married too ![]() | |||

"Of course it’s not the same thing. Some people have arranged marriages " 👆This! Spot on! Does anyone genuinely not know that love and marriage aren't the same? Marriage is a contract basically, anyone can marry anyone. Love is an emotion that you feel and experience with certain things and people. Simples! Mrs x | |||

"Yes I know that love and marriage aren't the same thing. I think a lot of people think love is enough to make a marriage work and marriage to enough to show you love someone though." Sadly so true. I thought if I loved my ex enough he'd change for the sake of our marriage ..... spoiler .... he didn't. Putting a ring on it definitely is not enough .... choosing to love someone is a daily act. | |||

"Goodness, you're a cynical bunch. Whilst I agree they're not the same thing, i think marriage can be a lovely way to demonstrate love and commitment to a partnership " Hi willinever, yes, marriage is a lovely way to demonstrate love and commitment to a partnership too ![]() | |||

"....love is a feeling and marriage is a social contract." Just this bit really. They are not even in the same realm of things to compare rationally. By no means are the two mutually exclusive. But neither one requires the other. | |||

"Goodness, you're a cynical bunch. Whilst I agree they're not the same thing, i think marriage can be a lovely way to demonstrate love and commitment to a partnership " It can be and whilst I’d prefer not to be a curmudgeon about it, there were times in married life that I felt very alone. | |||

"People get married for all different reasons some for stability and financial reasons others for religious reasons. Even tho theirs alot of cynical people around who are probably tainted by their past experiences some people actually marry for love. I was 19 when i got married and had a romantic notion of what marriage was like it's probably a little harder than the image i had at a young age ![]() Hi jandr, yes, people get married for all different reasons too ![]() | |||

"I think we have all come to think of marriage as something very different to what it was originally intended for, in the west at least. A diet of romantic novels, rim come and misty eyed heroines has seen to that. Even in my youth people got married because they had a baby on the way. Several of my friends were encouraged by their parents to marry for that reason and you could see from the start that it was doomed to misery and failure. Monarchs and future monarchs haven't married for love for centuries. Men and women used to marry for security or someone to keep house for them, widows and widowers for someone to provide care or financial security for their children. Love is a fairly late addition to the mix. " Hi nicecouple, yes, you are right there, many get married for different reasons too ![]() | |||
