I’d get married with a woman who share a love feeling with me,not because of pityness or any other silly idea..yeah a couple of kids would be great..but honestly I really have no idea about the reality of a marriage..yeah sex is really really good only if we do it to show your love expression not only based on lust.=)

I don't see anything particularly compelling about any of those reasons.

Certainly, having a family and having great sex do not require marriage. I can more understand if you have cultural or legal reasons for doing it, but my feeling is that I don't need or want any government or religious sanction for being with someone. There ARE some reasons I might do it, though, but not to meet any cultural norm.

It´s not about reasons, it´s more about if you want to get married. It´s about feelings.

I mean it´s an important step in your life, if marriage is one of the things you want (because a lot of people doesn´t care if the goverment or God recognize their union and only live together).

I agree with many of the people that has replied, you don´t need to get married to get your 3 reasons. But I´m not against marriage.

That won't be my reason if I'm gonna get married!

my reason would be:

First and foremost, I will get into a married life if my partner and I is already ready to build an ideal family, meaning we can afford to have anything that a family needs..the shelter and everything. Secondly, If I'm ready to change my last name already.. Hehehe!
