There are a lot of legal advantages to being married, particularly in the event that one of the couple dies. However the best reason for getting married is simply to commit to each other in every way possible.

It must be a nice thing. I was married once, it didn’t end acrimoniously, no kids so a large part of the drama that can exist, didn’t. Would I do it again? Well I’m a sucker for a floaty dress and a redhead so who knows?

My divorce was complicated and only just came through this last Valentines Day. I've decided it's an omen

Actually, I don't have strong feelings about marriage either way. If I find that I have the opportunity to live out my years with the love of my life then it might seem a good idea. If it never happens then so be it.

However, If I ever do marry again I'll be retaining my financial independence. Not doing so previously was a huge mistake.

Never remarry yet here I am 14 months since I said I do to doughnut today in fact lol, it felt right for us to be married somehow, we could have just lived together and if we never married I would have changed my name to his anyway but just signing that paper and wearing matching ring just makes it more ‘personal’ etc x

we've been together 39 years. I have always said I would never marry again. Not from loyalty or misplaced belief that there is only one person suitable as a partner from a whole world of people but simply because I don't have the time left to train another one up

Seriously though I just wouldn't want to.

Very much the same here. I never married until my early 30's and was married for 21 years before my wife died. We played on here together when she was alive, so i've carried on, on my own since she died. At my time of life, i simply can't see any point in being married or someone moving in with me. That said, all sorts of things happen in life and it could all change.

Also, previous relationships I've been in, if I've pondered the questions "can I see myself growing old with them? Can I see myself enjoying their company when I barely remember my own name?"

The answer until now had been a resounding no, generally followed by a shudder.

Not strictly true.

I realised just last month whilst doing my tax return that I could claim some of my wife’s personal tax allowance against my own earnings as she doesn’t use it all.

The resulting £460 return was only bettered by the two previous years back pay they sent me.

I clicked 3 boxes on the government website and made nearly £1300 (smileyfuckingface)

I was adamant that marriage wasn't for me. One because I couldn't see me as a bride or a wife in any shape or form. Two, I didn't think anyone could tolerate me for long enough or I them - a couple of months is a struggle, let alone a few years or a lifetime.

I'm now engaged and I'm looking forward to being married. Not for the wedding and the dress and the fantastic food and mountains of cheese we'll have but because I want to be my partner's wife. It holds some sort of daft meaning to me now that it didn't before.

I (Luke) have been there and it was a disaster. Hannah thought about going there years ago and is pleased she didn't.

I personally don't feel the need for a ceremony or a certificate to show my love for Hannah every day. Those aren't the things that make a relationship work. I don't see what it would add.

We know we have found our partners for life in each other. We communicate and work at that relationship every day. Marriage doesn't need to come into it.

Marriage is quite popular with women. Having sex is quite popular with men.

It's just a shame that the former lasts for a very long time and the latter ends as soon as the former starts.

We have both been married, L is very keen for us to marry, despite her initial statements that she had no interest in it. I for my part remain indifferent to the concept of marrying again. My first was a mistake and I see no reason to suppose another piece of paper would improve my life in any way

For me a marriage is a commitment , I’ve never lived with anyone and had the commitment that you have within a marriage for example when I’ve lived with anyone out of a marriage it’s been on my own terms not joint, I know it’s very old fashioned but it still appeals in a way I can’t quite fathom

With my last husband we still talk about how life would be if we was together as we had quite a lot of plans and I know I’d defiantly be much more financially secure today if I was with him, now my goals are just solo I’m

I think the majority don't rule it out and circumstances and having the right partner could mean that they would marry. We know many marriages, as well as relationships, are not life-long successes but we'll still assume that our own relationship has above chance probabilities of enduring.

I'd marry, if the right person/people came along but I'm not really active in trying to make that become a reality.
