    Marriage is a good thing. What would I do without my loving wife?

    Well, I said a "good thing," I didn't say a perfect thing.

    Marriage is an old-fashioned legal contract. Long ago it was used to bind two people together 'til death. But right now, it's just a meaningless thing.

    Haha, yes it does. Are you married fiona? How old are you? My first year of marriage was hard. Not easy to compromise, especially when I know I'm right all the time. No, only kidding, but it does take an adjustment. I'm married now 16 years. I think everyone should have a partner to go through life with.

    Marriage is constantly being redifined depending on the people inside of one. What it should be is two people coming together with resolution and acceptance, a willingness to let the other be, there is a state of "love" that inspires marriage. What matters in the end is that the "love" transcends the idea of "marriage."

    Of course there are standards in choosing a partner.

    She's probably the only person who can tolerate me.

    No, I don't know. One is young, you fall in love, and one decides marriage and a family is right. Then it's up to the two to make it work. I always say that we are all different people from before every five years and it takes effort and commitment to carry on together.

    what's your standards , it's still hard for me to accept this reality

    people said love is pure why marrige needs standards and it makes things different

    Marriage is different than love.

    "Marriage" , depending on how you define marriage, and how you define love, really matter here, fiona.

    My own personal standards were thus: will he be a good provider for our family? Is he capable of growing old with "me" am I capable of seeing "him" grow old, is he someone I would hold hands with when the ocean is in our sight? Does he know the meaning of effort?
