I'm fairly new to this site, but I have a genuine question for anyone who was interested enough to read my post, and that is: Why do people get married ?
Almost every post on here results in the op being told/suggested to leave the husband, women (in general) seem to all suspect their husband of something whether founded or unfounded.
So that is my question, I understand marrying for religious beliefs, which doesnt get mentioned to much on here actaully.
I myself (and this is only my opinion) do not see the need for marrage, I spent 10 years with someone and we didnt get married, we had a joint mortgage, which I think shows as much comitment to the relationship as marrage would have.
I'm not looking to start an arguement here, am just after opinions, and wonder if maybe this will help some people to remember why it is they got married in the first place.
Anyway, thanks for your time !
