Sure I can elaborate. No big deal [img]smile.gif[/img]
I think you can tell another person that you love them perfectly well without marrying them. What I meant to say in my original post was that I don't hold a special fondness to marry or something like it, but I am not against it.
If I like a girl very very much, and she likes me as well and we have a lot in common then there is always a probability that we could get married eventually. While I don't think there will be doubt about whether or not we love each other, marriage gives you in my honest opinion a more definitive version of a normal relationship. You commit to each other, saying that you will stand by their side, help them when help is needed and vice versa. Not that you wouldn't do that before marriage, but it becomes more than spiritual if you get what I mean. The ring you give to each other symbolizes your bond and not only do you love each other with spiritual force, you also carry that love with you through that ring. You are reminded of that special someone in your life through the fact that you're married.
Now I don't want to sound like some pro-marriage guy, but I definitely do not see any bad sides in marrying. I do think marriage is becoming something too easily looked at these days. People get married fairly quickly and it is not an exception anymore that you get divorced (and Hollywood is the worst example in this case). I regret that a lot, as I see marriage as something special and not something to be tossed about so easily.
